Ever get that déjà vu feeling when listening to songs from KPop Demon Hunters? You’re not imagining things — the demon-hunting idols might just be borrowing more than they’d like to admit. From sly nods to pop chart smashes to centuries-old classical motifs, their tracks are full of surprises.
In this deep dive, we explore how Soda Pop by the Saja Boys may be inspired by Robin Thicke’s Blurred Lines, why How It’s Done by Huntr/x sounds eerily similar to Stray Kids’ Domino, and the striking parallels between Huntr/x’s Takedown and Blackpink’s How You Like That.
We’ll also look at the unusual comparison between the 12/8 rhythm and soaring high notes in Huntr/x’s Golden and IVE’s I AM, and uncover the clever twist in the Saja Boys’ Your Idol, which borrows from the haunting medieval chant Dies Irae. Yes — classical music even makes a cameo here.
Join me as we unravel the hidden musical inspirations in KPop Demon Hunters’ standout tracks, featuring Huntr/x (Rumi, Mira, and Zoey) and their rivals, the Saja Boys (Jinu Saja, Abby Saja, Mystery Saja, Romance Saja, and Baby Saja).
