KPop Demon Hunters 2025

I enjoyed this movie, but boy do I accept issues with the storytelling and the glamorizing of K-pop idols' lives. SPOILERS AHEAD: 1. Rumi was built-in part-demon, right? Her mother was a demon hunter and her ancestor was a demon, which implies that not all demons are evil, right? Yes? No? We are never told how Rumi's mother died and we are never told what happened to Rumi's father, but I awful agnosticism that Rumi's mother was tricked into a accord by a demon continued abundant to accept a child. 2. All demons are declared to be abandoned back the Honmoon is sealed, so how the heck is the cat and the babble still there, also, why do we alike accept a demon cat and crow? They're cute, but what are they? Are there "true demons" like Gwi-Ma, the cat and the crow, and "enslaved demons" like Jinu and his boy band? 3. Gwi-Ma enslaves added demons and about tortures them with their abashment for all aeon and we end the cine by assuredly accoutrement them all in the demon branch with him? Really? Alike admitting Jinu shows that demons can be adored by... assuming them affection and forgiveness?! REALLY?! Okay! The aftermost one is my bigger affair with the plot. As for my issues with the representation of K-pop idols; their lives are alone alluring on the surface. K-pop idols are not born, they're made. These kids go through hell, for abridgement of a bigger way to call it. It's not so abundant an affair with the K-pop industry itself, as it's a "cultural" issue. Koreans advance themselves and anniversary added to the brink, and it can and does advance to suicide. South Korea has one of the accomplished suicide ante in the world. The cine shows our K-pop protagonists snacking out and adequate life, back in reality, these kids are on a austere diet and are allegedly not accustomed these things. I like the movie, but I've apprehend too abundant about the absolute lives of K-pop idols to discount the glamorized bribery apparent here.
