  Speaker 2: Well, then you shouldn't come to my house because nobody
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: comes there.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: And I love seeing the costumes that kids are where.

  Speaker 2: more than five, I'll be surprised.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: But I was. I went and got my coffee this
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: morning on my way to work a DJ my barista.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: He said, have you seen the K Pop Demon Hunters yet?
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: And I said, no, it's kid thing, right.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: No, No, you haven't had the steak Steak Bites either.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: No, but he was saying, you know you really should
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: so because you're gonna see a lot of kids dressed
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: up as that this Halloween. And there We actually had
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: a story about that in our news service this morning,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: and it says, if you're about to click purchase on
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: that roomy costume, but stopped yourself because it occurred to
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: you it might be inappropriate or cultural appropriation to let
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: your non Korean kiddos dress up as one of the characters.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: The creator of K Pop Demon Hunter says, don't worry,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: that's okay. You're not there. They're characters. You're not cultural
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: appropriating if your kids want to dress up like But
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: so the thought is there'll be a lot of that.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: This help. I saw the guy who created it. Somebody said,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: would you consider doing a live action version of it?
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Of course, and he said definitely not really, yeah, no,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: he said, I would not want to lie that.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: I think there's money, there's money to be had.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: I don't it just he said, I don't. I it
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: would ground it too much. It's oh, I see it would.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: It would take away a certain fantasy element of it
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: that I that I want. I think you could get
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: away with it. But he the guy, I don't know
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: if he if he controls it enough.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: But he said, I was going to say, I think
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: I think at this point Netflix controls it all.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Probably, But you've watched it, right, Yeah? I was told
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: my niece has told me.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's And I said, okay, well give it a look.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I haven't really felt any need to watch it, and
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: so should I. It's it's it's fun. Would it entertain me?

• 4:43
  Speaker 3: it's not even really traditional anime, is the other thing.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: What I found fascinating was I found out later that
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: all the demons and everything that they're talking about based
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: on actual Korean folklore.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Oh really, yeah, it wasn't made up.

  Speaker 2: It's it's this it's I want to say, it's computer based.

• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Pop Demon Hunter and you can see I'm not describing
• 5:48

  Speaker 3: has the has the big eyes and everything. But this
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: is this is this is a different style, but it
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: was really entertaining.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really entertaining, and.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: The music is is good for what it is.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: It's not something that I would have on my go

  Speaker 1: DJ was saying, I bet one of their songs is
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: when's the Oscar for Song of the Year Academy Award?
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: For that, I think it has to be in theateraters,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: but they did show it in theater.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: It was it was like a two day thing.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Though maybe that's not Yeah, half of the girls in

• 7:12
  Speaker 3: is anime though, Katie. Really, I mean, god, it's obviously

  Speaker 3: there's different people, but it's a different group that performs.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: As Hunter X.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: They should tour, They should definitely be touring, capitalizing on
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: all this popularity. This thing is huge globally, I mean
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: it's just huge. Oh that good looking Daniel day Kim's
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: voicing voice in there.

• 7:59
  Speaker 1: not a real band, but a fictional group from the
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: animated movie. However, the singers who perform their songs are
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: real solo musicians. These artists have come together to perform
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: the band's music, but they aren't a band themselves.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: They should be.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: They're just individual but yeah, they should.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: They should.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: They would make a ton of money if they toured around.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Maybe they don't own the rights again, maybe it's all Netflix.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Oh it's Hunt Tricks, not Hunter X. That's how I
• 8:26

• 8:39
  Speaker 2: see her Netflix movie getting a live action treatment. Interesting.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: She says, there are so many elements of the tone
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: and the comedy that are so suited for animation. It's
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: really hard to imagine these characters in a live action world.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: It would feel too grounded, so totally that it wouldn't
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: work for me. Hm. But it doesn't say that she
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: controls it.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Those Somebody says it's a good watch once, not the
