Netflix’s latest animation KPop Demon Hunters is trending an how! Easy on the eyes, thanks to some amazing animation and a compelling, yet easy plotline, the film fuses flashy choreography, supernatural lore, and strong character arcs into one genre-bending delight. Directed by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, it stars voices of Arden Cho, Ahn Hyo-seop, May Hong, Ji-young Yoo, Yunjin Kim, Daniel Dae Kim, Ken Jeong, and Lee Byung-hun. And while the film wraps up its central story well, it also hints at several intriguing narrative seeds to make one feel that a sequel is almost inevitable. With a fresh spin on K-pop stardom and demon-slaying action, the animated feature leaves the door wide open for future chapters in Huntr/X’s saga. Here are seven compelling reasons why KPop Demon Hunters is primed for a sequel: Also Read: KPop Demon Hunters Movie Review: Sleek Fantasy Action Is A Chaotic Genre-Mashup Packed With Dazzling Fight And Killer Choreography 1. Gwi-Ma’s Return Is Practically Guaranteed Saja Boys may serve as the immediate threat in the film, Gwi-Man, the ancient demon king, looms large in the background. Even though in the film, he’s seemingly defeated, his immense power and knowledge of Rumi’s hybrid origins suggest his story arc isn’t over. One could definitely hope for a sequel where Gwi-Ma recalibrates, perhaps wielding music as a weapon or forming uneasy alliances with other dark forces. 2. Rumi’s Family Mystery Is Far From Solved Rumi’s revelation as a half-demon (despite being a demon slayer) adds a rich layer of complexity to her character. However, her parentage is rarely explored. Who was her father – the demon? How did he meet her mother who was a demon hunter? What became of him? A sequel could dive into this backstory, possibly reintroducing her father as a villain, an ally, or something in between. 3. Unresolved Fates of Two Saja Boys Jinu’s redemption arc ends in sacrifice, and Abs and Mystery meet their ends in the climax — but Baby and Romance are left unaccounted for. Their ambiguous fates could easily set up their return, perhaps as rogue agents no longer under Gwi-Ma’s control or as new antagonists vying for power. Plus, the choice to have notable voice talent like Joel Kim Booster voice Romance hints at larger plans for these characters. 4. Zoey and Mira Deserve Their Spotlight While the film largely centres on Rumi’s journey, but both Zoey and Mira come with compelling unresolved arcs. Zoey’s identity struggles between Korean heritage and Western upbringing, and Mira’s fractured relationship with her conservative family hint at deeper emotional terrain. A sequel could focus on their backstories and make for more compelling narratives. 5. The Honmoon Has More Secrets To Reveal The Honmoon — a protective force field that blocks demon entry — is critical to the film’s world. Yet its origin, full power, and limitations are never fully explored. With Rumi, Zoey, and Mira forming a new version of it by the film’s end, a follow-up could explore how to perfect it — or what happens if it fails. 6. Historical Huntr/X Teams Could Lead to Spin-Offs The lore hints that Huntr/X is a reincarnated legacy, with versions of the demon-hunting girl group existing across time. A sequel could explore these past iterations through flashbacks or parallel storylines like the multiverse. This opens the door for spin-offs in different eras, styles, and genres while deepening the universe’s mythos and musical diversity. 7. More Demons, More Lore, More Music The unique blend of K-pop aesthetics and South Korean folklore is a major part of KPop Demon Hunters’ charm. But there’s still so much mythological material to mine — from deities and spirits to creatures from other cultures. A sequel could expand the girls’ battles beyond Korea, turning their global tour into a journey through worldwide legends and new monsters, all soundtracked by banger after banger.
