Having now watched KPop Demon Hunters, aside from all the traditional praise it fully deserves (the VISUALS and the CHOREOGRAPHY and the WORLD-BUILDING), we gotta talk about this movie’s ability to make things charming in as short a time as possible. It’s like action economy but for writing.

Like The Tiger and the flower pot? We instantly love him and I would now like fifty plushies. I trust the tiger more than some of the main cast.

Jinu’s “…wow. I wasn’t expecting a hug, but-?” INSTANTLY CHARMING. “I made it for the tiger, but the bird keeps taking it.” IMMEDIATE TRUST.

This movie really said I can make you like characters I want you to like SO FAST. This movie said you WISH you could make characters likable as quick as me.

the saja boys having separate voice and singing actors is the most hilarious thing ever if you think about because imagine having your one line be barking like a feral dog

what jinu allegedly did in canon for saja boys to become successful:

recruit four demon members and somehow convince them to join his boyband BEFORE getting Gwi-Ma's approval

taught them how to do different, but synchronized poses on cue

watch over and learn the evolution of modern kpop music, culture, fashion, and fandom

song lyricist & choreographer where he wrote (atleast) two singles and planned every move and expression.

made sure some of the choreo was memorable and easy enough to replicate and go trending

design brand collaterals like the soda cans, billboards, train displays, posters, ad videos, light sticks, oh and the logo too

basically a social media manager to create, edit, and schedule their social media posts

plan a photo and video shoot with the saja boys

record a studio version of soda pop and release it on streaming platforms

publicist where he basically booked them to the variety show, created a PR campaign and all to create hype for their first debut show in public to have some audience (the huntrix girls noted that there were more people than usual in the area before the saja boys' first performance)

gave the boys PR training

booked an entire stadium for the midnight concert

did a kpop boyband bootcamp to wrangle four demons into becoming the perfect idol to act, sing and dance

probably did a 1on1 for each saja boy too to create and establish their character

—all so he can forget his shame and memories

One of the cutest parts of my job was being a virtual makeup & nails stylist for Huntrix - here are concepts for some of their looks!

Re-Animator in a nutshell?

As warm up doodles, I decided to learn how to draw Dan and Herbert. I will hopefully get better. Drawing actors is my weakness, it's always a struggle
