Episode Title: K-Pop Demon Hunters

Welcome back! You are listening to The Fan and the Foe with your host(s) Gabbi and Louisa .

In this episode of The Fan and the Foe the Podcast we discuss: All things K-pop and K-pop demon hunters

Gabbi: Soooo todays topic neither of us are the most well versed in but as per usual I have at least seen and enjoyed watching Kpop demon hunters and Louisa is completely and udderly clueless

Louisa: You can’t say I am completely and utterly clueless on everything

Gabbi: Well you never seem to know what's going on here

Louisa: Just because I don’t know what every member of 1D’s blood type is doesn't mean I am clueless. I know plenty of things. Plus I have actually been in the room while Kpop demon hunters were playing so I can’t be that clueless.

Gabbi: Ohhhh well if you're so knowledgeable now why don’t you tell us what you think you know about Kpop Demon hunters.

Louisa: Uhhh. So you see it's a movie on netflix that little kids seem to love about demons fighting kpop?

Gabbi: absolutely not. You literally just recited the title but wrong. Come on at least try next time The show focuses on 3 main girls, Rumi mira and zoey who are a part of a kpop group called huntrix by day and demon hunters by night, they are all the rage until this new band of guys called the saja boys threaten their popularity with their first hit single.

The one twist is all of the guys are secretly demons trying to corrupt their fans and break the protective barrier between the human world and the demon realm

Louisa: Ok so maybe I was a teeny tiny bit off

Gabbi: Sureeee. Well I never would’ve known all of this if it weren’t for [babysitting story and little cousin that LOVES kpop demon hunters]. It is extremely popular with younger kids, but there are also plenty of people, high schoolers and older who also loved this movie

1. Record breaking streams on netflix—> it got put into theaters sing along style
2. The movie brought together kpop and korean folklore and tied it all together with catchy lyrics and elaborate animations

The songs from the movie were so popular that they were on the radio and I can’t lie golden is a BOP.

Louisa: correction, it WAS a bop, now its just overplayed

Gabbi: you have to admit its super catchy

Louisa: Oh 100 percent, it totally was, but now it's a bit much. Its like WICKED, except wicked songs weren't overplayed so I still love them

Gabbi: OMG I just saw for good in theatres and it was SO GOOD, like Cynthia Erivo is an icon

Louisa: I gonna do something crazy, and actually agree with you

Gabbi: wow, what a rare occurrence

Louisa: I know right, but anyways Kpop demon hunters is definitely gonna take gen alpha by storm if it hasnt all ready

Gabbi: Its gonna be their High school musical

Louisa: How dare you make that comparison. An okay animated film against one of the most iconic franchises to ever exist for teens. I think not.

Gabbi: fine maybe that was a bit much, but you get the point
