Animation Sony's K-pop: Demon Hunters



Damnit SNL, why tease me. I really don't want to watch Fallon. I do like how the singing voices are clearly looking like their characters.
 
Finally got around to watching this today. What a lovely film. Beautifully animated. Both the musical and action set pieces are very well directed and staged. Whole soundtrack is fantastic. Does not shock me that "Golden" has broken out the way it has.
 
the YEAH clip lives in my brain forever rent free :funny:


I think about this one every so often (@ 0:09):



It’s a combination of the fact that it comes out of nowhere and their cartoonishly exaggerated evil gremlin postures/expressions and laughs that does it for me. It’s simultaneously so out of character and yet very much in character. Anytime I watch it, I can’t help but laugh. Like, they suddenly turn into a bunch of Saturday morning cartoon villains for a few seconds. It’s so absurd and I love it. :funny:

Also, since we’re on the subject of musical covers, here’s some I found over the past few months that I think you guys would love:

An entire playlist of covers/ remixes/reinterpretations done by this one YouTuber named Lumie:


Some of my personal favorites from her:




A bunch of great standard covers of “Free” by some VTubers/Youtubers:

JUNHEE and AleXa:


Serafina and MizunoAki:


Caleb Hyles and Ironmouse:


Bao the Whale and Johnnyray:


The voice actors of Rumi and Jinu:


“Free”, but it’s gay:


An excellent acoustic version by NateWantsToBattle and his wife Anna Prosser:

An excellent cover of the opening track of the film:


An excellent head-banging heavy metal cover of “How It’s Done” by Lauren Babic:


One Voice Children’s Choir’s cover of “Golden”:


JUNHEE’s cover of “Your Idol”:


There’s so many more I could post, but I’d practically be here all day and I don’t want to flood this page with just a bunch of videos, so I’ll just leave it at that. :hehe:

Suffice to say, a lot of really musically talented people. Must be still be so mind blowing and surreal to see songs which, you put all of your years of emotions into from not making the cut and years of being mostly behind the scenes, being sung by billions and billions of people around the world. If that were me, I’d be so overwhelmed and overcome with emotion, I wouldn’t know what to do with myself or how to react.

All done by the same guys they are just amazing wow
 
this clip makes me hope we get a score album that eerie vocal track by young Rumi (who I found out is voiced by Rumi Oak who is the director's daughter who she named the KPDH character after) really add to the scene
