A dream team-up may be on the horizon! As BTS regroups after military service, the global buzz around Netflix’s hit animation K-pop Demon Hunters is intensifying—and a potential collaboration between the two is sparking massive excitement.
Director Maggie Kang Says “Hi ARMY 💜”
On June 28, K-pop Demon Hunters director Maggie Kang dropped a playful bomb on social media:
“Hi ARMY, how about a collab with Lion Boys? The pride is ready.” 🦁
Fans instantly lit up. Accompanying the message was a highlight showing BTS and K-pop Demon Hunters’ fictional boy group Lion Boys as the only K-pop boy groups to chart in Spotify US Daily Top 10. The hint was crystal clear: this could be a historic K-pop-animated crossover.
Did BTS Already Tease It? 👀
In a recent Weverse live broadcast, RM casually sang a line from “Soda Pop,” the breakout song by Lion Boys from the film.
Jungkook reacted: “Did you see that? It’s fun!”
Could this be subtle confirmation that something is brewing?
A Global Smash in the Making 🌎
Since its June 20 release, K-pop Demon Hunters has ranked #1 on Netflix’s global film chart for 11 straight days.
Its music? Also a beast. Songs like:
- “Take Down” (by Huntress, featuring TWICE’s Jihyo, Jeongyeon, Chaeyoung)
- “Golden”
- “Soda Pop” (by Lion Boys)
…have charted on the Billboard 200 and are climbing fast on Spotify’s US Top 10, setting new records for fictional K-pop artists.
Why This Matters 🔥
A BTS × K-pop Demon Hunters collaboration could unite real-world legends with fictional icons—a cultural crossover never seen before. With Teddy as lead OST producer and global superstars like TWICE already involved, fans are hoping the next surprise is BTS joining the universe.
Could we hear BTS on the sequel soundtrack?
Or even a BTS-animated cameo in Season 2?
One thing’s clear: K-pop is expanding its universe in ways we never imagined.
