Plot and Concept
* The Hero Group: The film centers on HUNTR/X (pronounced "Hunter-X"), a wildly popular K-pop girl group composed of three members: Rumi, Mira, and Zoey.
* Double Life: They lead secret double lives as demon hunters, who use their magical singing voices and a spiritual barrier called the Honmoon to protect humanity from demons.
* The Villains: Their main antagonists are the Saja Boys, a charming rival K-pop boy band whose members are secretly demons sent by the demon king, Gwi-Ma, to weaken the barrier and steal human souls.
* The Lore: The story incorporates elements of ancient Korean folklore, including female shamans who used music to ward off evil, which inspired the concept of the HUNTR/X trio.
