Kpop demon Hunters: The Truth
Okay, I love kpop demon hunters and all but I have to say this.
HEAR ME OUT BEFORE YOU JUDGE ME.
As also a kpop fan, it pains me to listen to the soundtrack. They stole so many lines and beats, mainly insipred by black pink. for example, in "How Its Done" Zoey sings "body on body (im naughty not even sorry)" and black pink (Lisa) HAS THE SAME LINE IN ONE OF HER SONGS (sorry dont remember which) and in "BOOMBAYAH" by BlackPink, they sing "[korean lyrics pardon me] RAMBO" I kid you not you can search all of this up and it will come out to be true. If you listen to black pink, you will see how KDH is HEAVILY inspired by Blackpink to the point it's getting close to copywriting? Im not a KDH hater, but please see my point?
Also from a writer's point of view, the characters are poorly written and the plot is kind of basic? HEAR ME OUT BEFORE YOU JUDGE ME. Let's look at this from a neutral POV.
The plot feels like the same cliché everyone’s seen a million times — trained to fight the enemy, falls in love with the enemy, drama, fight, make up, repeat. It’s so basic it’s almost boring. The characters? Totally one-dimensional. All the chars — all stereotypes. The story just throws feelings at you without earning them. Predictability alert: I knew every plot twist before it happened. No surprises, no risks, just the same old thing. I’m not hating, but from a writer’s POV, it’s just too safe and tired. We deserve fresh stories, not reheated tropes.
Imagine a girl, she has been trained for something to fight against X, and she also happens to be part of a community, in this case X. Her mentor judges her for it or has an opinion about it but still loves her. She is trained with bias and mentality against X and to fight X. Then, she befriends and falls in love with an X. They fight. They make up! RESOLUTION!
TELL ME IM WRONG. TELL ME YOU DONT KNOW AT LEAST 5 MOVIES OR BOOKS WITH A SIMILAR PLOT OR SLIGHTLY RELATED. TELL ME.
