I first encountered the phenomenon that is KPop Demon Hunters this summer. My friend described it as Sailor Moon meets Powerpuff Girls. That’s exactly my kind of thing, so I watched it soon after. I remember putting my son to bed one night and feeling too tired to pull it up on the TV, or even my laptop. I just curled up in bed and watched the movie on my phone.
Of course, I was blown away by it. The music, the humor, the friendship, the messages, the star-crossed romance, I loved everything about it. A few days later, I noticed my first grader singing under his breath. I caught the words “Soda Pop,” and discovered he’d been listening to KPop Demon Hunters songs at summer camp. We watched the movie together, and we’ve both been hooked ever since. If you’re in on the KPop Demon Hunters fandom with me, I have the perfect book recommendation for you.

Now, she lives a quieter life, working at a café and doing her best to pester one of her customers, the cranky trickster god, Seokga. In between hunting demons to make up for his failed coup of his brother’s kingdom, Seokga has discovered coffee. This would bring some shred of joy to his life if it weren’t for Hani’s infuriating café shenanigans. When a murderous demon begins wreaking havoc on their city, Hani and Seokga try to put their differences aside to stop it.
