Netflix brings a new animated movie called KPop Demon Hunters to screens this Friday. Three actresses voice the main characters who are K-pop stars that fight demons using their music. Arden Cho, May Hong and Ji-young Yoo play the speaking roles for Rumi, Mira and Zoey.
The voice actors worked separately from the singers who performed the actual songs. Recording artists EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI handled all the musical numbers. The actresses felt amazed when they saw their animated characters dancing and fighting on screen.
Directors Chris Appelhans and Maggie Kang learned that animated dance moves need extra energy compared to real life. They made every gesture sharper and more dramatic to work better in cartoons. The team studied how each character moves differently as a performer.
The girl group Huntrix faces off against a demon boy band trying to steal their fans. They write an angry song called Takedown to fight back. Rumi hides a secret throughout the story about being half demon herself.
The movie teaches young people about accepting who they are. Each character brings different strengths to the group. Mira shows fierce energy that helps the team. Zoey tries to keep everyone together as a peacemaker. The actresses became friends during filming and still chat together online.
