The similarities with KPop Demon Hunters are almost immediate from the opening moments of Netflix animated series Jentry Chau vs. the Underworld. The series focuses on 16-year-old Jentry Chau (voiced by Ali Wong), a teenage girl who learns she has demon-slaying powers, and a powerful demon is out to get her to steal them from her.

“KPop Demon Hunters” is the first movie since Disney’s “Encanto” (2022) to place two songs in the Hot 100’s top 10. Following “Encanto’s” release, “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” reached No. 1 while “Surface Pressure” peaked at No. 8. The animated movie is doing more than dominating the charts. It’s also smashing streaming records.
