Idols who inspired KPop Demon Hunters’ characters

Netflix’s animated feature K-Pop Demon Hunters shaped its characters using traits seen in real-life Korean music stars, television actors, and models. Director Maggie Kang told Forbes that she created a digital inspiration board early on. It later expanded to a combination of K-pop icons and celebrity faces across decades.

The Saja Boys line-up features five members: Abby, Jinu, Mystery, Romance, and Baby. According to Kang, their concept was inspired by the format seen in boy bands like BTS, TXT, Stray Kids, ATEEZ, MONSTA X, and BIGBANG.

Jinu was modeled with Korean drama actors in mind. The filmmaker listed ASTRO’s Cha Eun-woo as a main style reference. Mystery, whose face stays mostly hidden under long violet hair, wasn’t linked to any single celebrity. Instead, he was influenced by anime styles.

In terms of design, all the Saja members except Abby share the same digital body mold. Abby’s model was adjusted to appear slightly broader (around 20% bulkier), so he stood out physically.

The female team, Huntrix, includes Mira, Rumi, and Zoey. Their styles came from a different set of K-pop visuals. Kang said the team looked closely at BLACKPINK, TWICE, and ITZY for influence.

Mira’s aesthetic came from Korean model Ahn So-yeon. Meanwhile, Zoey had a more playful tone based on several cute-style K-pop idols. Rumi leaned toward a traditional Korean beauty concept.

Even small details varied: Zoey’s animated smile was drawn with a heart-like curve, Mira’s build was long and slim, and Rumi had a composed energy.
