The Sony Pictures Animation film KPop Demon Hunters, released on Netflix in June, has quickly amassed viral success, partially off the sheer strength of a no-skip original soundtrack. Centering around Rumi (Arden Cho), Mira (May Hong), and Zoey (Ji-young Yoo), who form K-pop girl group Huntr/x by day, and work as demon slayers by night. While the girls use their voices to protect the world from soul-eating demons (including a seductive new demon boy band, led by the charismatic Jinu (Ahn Hyo-seop), these two fictional groups have inadvertently been slaying the charts and spawning idol merch in real life, from group t-shirts to fake Huntr/x lightsticks.
Huntr/x has quickly become the third most-streamed K-pop group in the world (beat out only by chart mainstays BTS and Stray Kids), with the film’s album landing as the highest-debuting soundtrack of 2025 on the Billboard 200 charts at No. 1, and the first to bow in the top ten this year. The soundtrack has even received five Grammy nominations for the 68th annual awards show that will take place in February 2026.
Directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans have frequently mentioned in interviews how the idols in KPop Demon Hunters took inspiration from the real-life K-pop groups — HUNTR/X was modeled after girl groups like Blackpink, Itzy, and Twice (three members of which, Jeongyeon, Jihyo, and Chaeyoung, also sing the film’s main title song, “Takedown”), which the members of the demon boy band Saja Boys were inspired by groups like BTS, Stray Kids, and Bigbang.
With the massive success of the show and its soundtrack, these merch items are expected to be some of the most in-demand products of the 2025 holiday season. So if you want a chance to snag them before they sell out after Black Friday, now’s the time to shop. Explore the best KPop Demon Hunters gifts below that will have you feeling hotter than the Saja Boys.

The Twice trio recorded their own version of Huntr/x’s original diss track “Takedown” for this film’s soundtrack, and the group’s own song “Strategy” is also included in the film and on the album. Even if you’ve just had the Saja Boys’ infectious “Soda Pop” stuck in your head for weeks (we don’t blame you, us too), then you’ll want to order it now before it sells out ahead of the holidays. The CD comes with a fold-out poster and photo card (random 1 of 3), like a real K-pop album.
