General KPop Demon Hunters things

Seems to have come up a bit on the Story Rants thread, so....

Just a random thought: I notice a lot of people speak of Bobby as a father figure to HUNTR/X but... am I the only one who has a lot of trouble picturing the dude as even pushing forty? More likely 10-12 years Rumi's senior, old enough not to be blown off reflexively when yelling at network heads but only just.

I saw a portrayals of him as a former idol, don't actually know if it's canon or not

Bobby is 34 apparently but it's probably because his VA is ken jong so you imagine him older.

But yes he would be closer to a older brother then dad but it's understandable why people feel that way dude has dad energy.

Never heard of this one before but demons going after celebrities- perhaps because they have more faith energy than priests in modern times- and the demon hunters turning it around on them by training up the celebrities to fight them seems like an amazing idea.

It's more that there's a Korean shamanic tradition of using ceremonial music and dancing to cast protective rituals over villages, and over the generations one line of demon hunters has consistently trained their successors to be entertainers because the larger the audiences, the more the rituals scale up. The latest generation are Huntrix, a three girl kpop band who are one of the most famous acts in the world, so they are cranking more power than any of their predecessors and will soon make the protective barrier that keeps demons out of the human realm impenetrable.

So the demons embark on a desperate plan, and that's the plot of the movie.

Admittedly the girls also have anime martial arts and fight demons with magic lightsabers but hey, why not.
