The hype comes from the massive success of KPop Demon Hunters, the franchise that introduced the Saja Boys. The movie has skyrocketed to become Netflix’s fourth highest-grossing movie of all time and its most-viewed film on the platform. Thanks to the positive reaction from fans, talks of an expansion, including sequels and a live-action, are already in motion. However, don’t start waving your lightsticks just yet! Nothing has been confirmed so far, and with no official announcement, these might just be sweet illusions.

Netflix is considering making 2 sequels to ‘K-POP: DEMON HUNTERS’

A live-action remake is also being considered.

Still, Cha Eunwoo’s polished visuals and magnetic presence make him a natural choice for Jinu, while Wonho’s powerful energy and stage charisma seem tailor-made for Abby. Fans had been running their own dream casting lists for weeks, and this pairing ticks all the boxes. Now the countdown begins to see if the possibility of a live-action remake could feature a perfect cast. If the rumors are anything to go by, the Saja Boys are about to own a whole new era!
