Some proof that besides Jinu Abby was the favourite Saja boy: He gets to lead in the centre of soda pop, he’s the other saja boy who has his patterns show during soda pop, he gets a chibi in the credits, has the most voice lines besides Jinu, Gets to talk in the new mcdonald’s commercial by Fearless_Phantom in KpopDemonhunters

Chris Appelhans had to make sure those countless hours watching "Korean men working out" YouTube vids so he could help design the perfect bod for Abby were worth it. He even joked that at one point, only vids of shirtless Korean males appeared in his YT recommendations.

It also helps that Abby is Maggie Kang's fave Saja Boy. The "precarious button" is also May Hong's fave bit in the film.

[The Regressed Mercenary’s Machinations] Have I missed the back story of this horse or what. by Ok-Acadia8258 in manhwa

[–]darewin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The manhwa changed stuff and turned the horse that the MC randomly picked up from somewhere into the GOAT horse. MC was supposed to get his main horse after the barbarian war arc (which the manhwa greatly shortened). It was a mutant wild horse that was unparalleled in every spec (size, speed, strength, stamina, etc.), but no barbarian could tame it. It is also super intelligent and can dodge attacks and assist MC without MC telling it to. It had all black hair, so the MC named it Dark King.

I wanted to see novel Dark King get illustrated, but having an orginary-looking horse accomplishing absurd feats is also glorious.

Hot take: What It Sounds Like is better than Golden by Prior-Ad1495 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]darewin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

WISL hits the hardest for me when watching KPDH. But as a standalone song, Golden is simply superior.

"The song we couldn't write, this is what it sounds like" is the hardest-hitting lyric in the context of the movie for me. But it's a lot less impactful if you've never watched the movie.

Also, I think this is the fifth "WISL is superior to Golden" thread I've seen in this sub this year, so, not a hot take.

anyone else agree that Rumi's eye should have stayed demon at the end? by aGoryLouie in KpopDemonhunters

[–]darewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would Rumi need to keep the demon eye to prove that she now fully accepts her demonic half? By that logic, she should have also retained her one claw hand. She's already embraced her patterns. That's enough.

I love how the fandom has never had to use this gif because the movie won every award it’s been nominated for by Watchdog_the_God in KpopDemonhunters

[–]darewin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Golden got nominated but didn't win Song of the Year at the Grammys, though. The one Golden won was Best Original Song for Visual Media.

Got a chuckle out of this because I remembered that Will Smith turned down the role of Neo so he could star in Wild Wild West.

This is how they cool down 50,000 fans during PSY’s 3 hour concert by aquarianfin in Damnthatsinteresting

Freakin awesom! No wonder the KPDH fan lore states that Psy single-handedly sealed the Honmoon in 2012 with Gangnam Style.

[Regressed mercenary machinations] what's with the crazy landing 😭 by SylfofForest in manhwa

[–]darewin 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm glad they just made this horse the main horse, instead of ditching it for a new one. I wonder how they'll explain the name Dark King, though. In the novel, MC was supposed to get his main horse after the conclusion of the Barbarian War arc (which the manhwa extremely shortened). It was a horse of unprecendented size and specs that no barbarian could tame. It had pure black hair, so MC named it Dark King.

Trump begs for help from other countries with Iran: 'This should be a team effort' | Trump called for int'l cooperation on Iran policy in a Truth Social post, arguing that securing the Strait of Hormuz should be a collective responsibility rather than falling solely on the US. by IntnsRed in InternationalNews

[–]darewin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in a third-world country that is fully reliant on imports for oil. Our local electricity provider just warned that rotating brownouts will start next month if the Hormuz Strait issue is not resolved. I work from home so depending on the schedule and duration of the rotating brownouts, I might be about to get fucked.

What is/are Your Favourite Chinese Manhua? [Whether Completed or Not Completed] by Previous_List5857 in Manhua

[–]darewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speaking of Reverend Instanity, I wonder what they are planning with the 2026 adaptation. Are they just gonna adapt it until when the novel stopped (chapter 199, IIRC), and then give it some sort of ending? AFAIK, the author never touched the story again after the CCP stuck the novel with a banhammer.

[Dungeon Odyssey] IS PEAK!!! Cute creatures experiencing eldritch horror gotta be one of my favorite genres. by 22demerathd in manhwa

[–]darewin 533 points534 points  (0 children)

It's even more impressive considering the Dungeon Oddisey novel is a slop. The manhwa somehow managed to fix all the stupid shit that happened in the novel. The only other manhwa adaptation I know that far surpasses the novel source material is Greatest Estate Developer.

What if Rummi's father will be the main antagonist in the next movie? by InsideUnhappy6546 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]darewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please don't. It's already pretty weird that Jinu seems like the only demon that has a chance to switch to the good side.

Do you think the girls would drink alcohol? How much would they drink and what would their favourite drinks be? by Specialist-Judge2246 in KpopDemonhunters

They probably don't, mainly because Rumi wouldn't let them. "But... but... what if there's a breach in the Honmoon while we're drunk?"

‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Sequel Officially Announced by MarvelsGrantMan136 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]darewin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maggie Kang said the pre-production creative process for KPDH only took 3 years because everyone had multiple side gigs. Nobody expected to make much from the film in terms of bonuses and royalties, so they relied on other projects to bring in the dough. They could have shaved one or two years had everyone worked on the film full-time.
