A Christian Review of K-Pop Demon Hunters – Pastor Vlad’s Warning
In recent weeks, Netflix’s animated movie K-Pop Demon Hunters has exploded in popularity among kids and teens. It’s colorful, musical, emotional, and designed to pull on the heartstrings with catchy K-pop songs and vibrant animation. At first glance, it may seem like a fun cartoon about good versus evil.
But as Pastor Vlad Savchuk warns, beneath the glitter and music lies a set of very troubling spiritual messages that parents, young people, and believers must be aware of. This isn’t just harmless entertainment—it carries spiritual deception.
The Dark Truth Behind Netflix’s K Pop Demon Hunters
1. It Normalizes the Supernatural in a Shamanistic Way
Instead of pointing to Jesus Christ as the Deliverer, the movie portrays a mythical barrier and magical songs as the means to fight demons. This blends Asian shamanism, new age beliefs, and pop culture, while desensitizing kids to the reality of spiritual warfare.
👉 The Bible reminds us that real authority over darkness comes only from Christ:
“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love.” – Colossians 1:13
2. It Blurs the Line Between Good and Evil
👉 God’s Word is clear:
“What fellowship can light have with darkness?” – 2 Corinthians 6:14
“Demons must be cast out, not embraced.” – Mark 16:17
Good and evil are not to be mixed. The gospel calls us to repentance and deliverance, not to find identity in sin or demonic roots.
3. It Uses Music as a Spiritual Weapon Outside of God
The Huntrix girls fight demons through songs infused with mystical power. While music is spiritual, Scripture teaches it is only powerful when tied to the Spirit of God.
👉 True worship is directed toward the Lord:
“Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord.” – Ephesians 5:19
Music divorced from God’s presence can open doors to spiritual bondage instead of freedom.
4. It Preaches a False Gospel of Self-Acceptance
The movie glorifies self-discovery and self-empowerment rather than repentance and new birth in Christ. The turning point of Roomie’s story is when she decides to stop hiding and accept herself as half-demon.
But biblically, shame has a holy purpose—it points us to the cross. We are not called to embrace our sin or darkness, but to bring it to Jesus for forgiveness and transformation.
👉 The Bible says:
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has gone, the new is here!” – 2 Corinthians 5:17
5. It Glamorizes Demons for Young Audiences
Bright colors, catchy songs, and idol-like performers make darkness look fun and appealing. What Scripture calls dangerous, the movie packages as entertainment.
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil…” – Isaiah 5:20
“Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” – 1 Peter 5:8
By romanticizing demons—through love stories and emotional songs—the movie desensitizes kids to the reality of evil.

🚨 A Word for Parents and Believers
Our identity is not half-light and half-dark—it is fully new in Christ.
Our victory is not through self-discovery—it is through the cross.
Our hope is not in music or barriers—but in Jesus Christ, who has authority over every demon.
👉 Let’s teach our children to discern truth from lies, and to stand on God’s Word above culture.
✝️ Final Reminder:
Parents, don’t let Netflix disciple your kids more than the Word of God does.
