My Interview with a KPop Demon Hunter

KPop Demon Hunters band Huntr/x

Am I interviewing fictional characters as a fan? No, I am not. I’m also not proud to say that I might be the only American adult male over the ago of 50 and outside of Netflix, who has any idea who the KPop Demon Hunters are.  I would imagine that many of you saw a number of KPop demon hunter costumes on Halloween weekend without knowing who the kids were pretending to be.  I have interviewed fictional characters previously, but for some reason, I think this might get a few more reads from Google than my Bigfoot interview. The KPop Demon Hunters rarely give interviews, and especially not to “a blogger.”

For those of you not familiar with today’s guest, The Huntr/x girl band from South Korea is also secretly a group of demon hunters. You know I love the paranormal, so I was all in on getting an interview with another group of paranormal investigators. Her agent only let her agree to the interview on one condition; she has to remain anonymous. So she showed up in a mask.

Apparently this is a character from their movie.

I swear that’s not me, although the resemblance is remarkable. On with the interview!

Me: How do I know that you’re really a Kpop Demon Hunter if you’re in a mask? You could be her agent. 

Anonymous KPop Demon Hunter: Don’t be ridiculous, little man. And don’t insult me. I will not dignify your question with an answer. That’s something Mira might do.

Me: So you’re not Mira? Hmm…

Anonymous KPop Demon Hunter: What? Shoot. No, yes, I’m Mira.

Me: So, who do you think is the best singer in the group?

Anonymous KPop Demon Hunter: Well it’s obviously Rumi.

Me: So you’re Rumi?

Anonymous KPop Demon Hunter: No, I’m not Rumi! Why would you say that?

Me: So you’re very clearly Zoey, right? For cripes sake. I haven’t had to talk to a teenage girl in years. I forgot how mind-numbing this can be.

Anonymous KPop Demon Hunter: Look little man, until yesterday I had never heard of (and she finger quoted with a super sarcastic tone here) The Phil Factor. You’re an effing blogger. If my uncle didn’t know you this would never have happened. Have you ever been to one of our concerts?

Me: Concert? I thought you gals were a cutesy paranormal investigating group. Do ghosts sing? Have you ever heard a ghost sing? If you sing so well, why haven’t you kids been nominated for a Grammy? If you’re real demon hunters, then why don’t you have any songs about orbs? You’re more like the KPoop Demon Hunters! And you’re all girls, shouldn’t you be demon huntresses?

At the same time we both stood up, tore the microphones off and stormed away in opposite directions. I’m sorry readers, I tried.

On a serious note, you have to give credit to whomever invented this crazy phenomenon by smashing together the KPop craze with the out of control paranormal interest.

Have a great weekend and thanks for reading! ~Phil
