KPop Demon Hunters, the hit Netflix movie that was released earlier this year, has broken another record.
KPop Demon Hunters was released on Netflix in June 2025. Directed by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, the animated musical film has since become the streaming service company’s most popular movie of all time, surpassing 2021’s Red Notice.
What record did Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters break?
Per Variety, KPop Demon Hunters has now remained in the Netflix Top 10 for 15 straight weeks. This makes it the longest-running title on the English-language films charts to ever do so, once again surpassing Red Notice, which charted 14 times total.
“The new achievement is especially impressive when considering that KPop Demon Hunters on the chart has been consecutive, whereas Red Notice originally charted for 12 weeks in a row before making two appearances later on,” the article notes.
A sing-along version of KPop Demon Hunters was released in limited United States theaters for two days in August. During that weekend, the movie grossed approximately $19.2 million in the United States and Canada, making it the first Netflix film to ever finish in first place over the weekend. It has also become the first film soundtrack to have four of its songs on the Billboard Hot 100’s top ten.
The official synopsis for KPop Demon Hunters reads, “When they aren’t selling out stadiums, Kpop superstars Rumi, Mira, and Zoey use their secret identities as badass demon hunters to protect their fans from an ever-present supernatural threat. Together, they must face their biggest enemy yet – an irresistible rival boy band of demons in disguise.”
The voice cast of the movie includes Arden Cho as Rumi, EJAE as Rumi’s singing voice, May Hong as Mira, AUDREY NUNA as Mira’s singing voice, Ji-young Yoo as Zoey, REI AMI as Zoey’s singing voice, Ahn Hyo-seop as Jinu, and more.
