SUMMARY

On this episode of DANG!, Todd and Bettijo break down the unstoppable Netflix sensation K-Pop Demon Hunters — the animated flick that’s taken the world by storm and somehow become a legit family fave in their house (and millions more). The movie fuses Korean mythology and K-Pop music into a unique superhero story. It has baffled critics and smashed records, becoming the fourth most-watched English-language film on Netflix with a staggering 158 million views in just seven weeks.

Todd and Bettijo explore why this anime is such a massive success, spotlighting its rare ability to bring families together in a world where everyone’s glued to their own screen. They reminisce about the days when families had to agree on what to watch and how this film is a refreshing return to that shared entertainment vibe. Plus, it connects with teens and adults alike — all while staying family-friendly.

And the soundtrack? The fictional girl group HUNTR/X is straight-up chart-smashing. Their song “Golden” hit No. 1 in under a week, proving the power of K-Pop isn’t just hype — it’s historic.
