Did You Miss Me?
Of Course You Did!

I was MIA for....hell.... that long....

Almost three weeks!
What happened?
I got lost, and I guess I still am, and you guess so too after tonight's episode.

---

Okay, how does a pre-boomer handle sharing music with a musically educated 12-year-old K-pop, rock, and even metal fan?

And don´t tell me I am lost!

I said Don´t!

I did my J Pop, J Metal, J Lolita, K Boom pop thing a few weeks ago.

And even though I am on a different journey, I need to take a break and share this before it´s too late and I am considered the Elon to the K Pop Party of the year.

Or should I say "Demon Party!"

But they look so K-Cute

Heads Up

So boomers, Goths, and piano lovers get out while you still can because Sony and Netflix just dropped a supersized bomb that makes Trump's tariffs look like TACO.

Ｔａｋｅ Ｍｙ Ｈａｎｄ ＆ Ｔｒｉｐ Ｗｉｔｈ Ｍｅ

Let´s open with this and set the stage as I am not your Idol, I am the demon you call your mind....get my mic a little higher a lit the beat...because I am a big girl Idol.

Your Idol - Saja Boys

Where the flying cockroach, yes it is actually spelled cock, am I coming from.
If you did not get it, you are even worse than I, because at least I know what I am talking about, although I have no clue why all the hype... let's investigate.

Okay, so we started off with the bad guys.... and of course they are way cooler than the good girls....or...

Huntrix - How It´s Done

But my biggest problem is....will she make me watch it in Japanese....Korean...or give me a break and have the English version play on a lazy Sunday???

Now I don´t think this matters, because this is all fantasy, but hey, let's get into the pants of these characters:

Now I am looking for their songs in Korean, but all I found is this Korean...still English:

But, Be Serious A Demon Boy band?

I love it, it was the main reason I said let's watch it...well, the stealing souls part was quite cool as well tbh.

---

Now this next one really sucks, but I guess that is part of being a boy band.

Saja Boys - Soda Pop

Now I am looking for vids of this song in Korean:

HUNTRIX (헌트릭스) - Golden

But all I found is the Spanish version WTF:

Kpop Demon Hunters - Golden

And it got worse, I wanted this one in Japanese, and again...

HOW ITS DONE - KPop Demon Hunters - COVER EN ESPAÑO

This feels so racist

Luckily, I was able to find the most important song in a language I don't understand and without subtitles, thank Demons.

𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐞 (𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐯𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐬) - 𝐊𝐩𝐨𝐩 𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬

Still, I must say, I prefer the Spanish version above the English for this one:

SOY TU OBSESIÓN, TU REVOLUCIÓN - Saja boys

I mean WTF

Even when I translate it to Japanese, I do not get a hit: 悪魔ハンターあなたのアイドル

You know what that tells me? That this movie was made to convert the English-speaking world and might be too soft for the home crowd....

Or they had enough music manga already...

---

But it remains a mystery for now.

We all love a good Mystery:

Okay, and just to stay in the mood, two more songs that fit the feeling but have nothing to do with the actual movie.... yes, I am just showing off, pretending I get the music scene these days...

Trust me that Demon Boy Band Hunter Sony K Pop Movie is GNARLY

KATSEYE (캣츠아이) - Gnarly

The word narly is actually spelled gnarly, beginning with a silent 'g' that we do not pronounce

The word 'narly (gnarly) has various meanings..

The literal meaning of gnarly is 'twisted', but it is more commonly used as slang to describe something as difficult, extreme, or cool...

Literal meaning, less common example: "The tree roots are gnarled as they enter the ground"
Common example: "Woah! Those waves look so difficult to surf. Gnarly, dude!"

Okay, all good and fun, but what is Truly Gnarly is this Boy Band, and I have to admit I like their style...vids, beats, and clothes.

Stray Kids - MEGAVERSE

Oh, so you liked that, didn´t you---
Let´s LaLaLa do an:

ENCORE

And make it rock...I have been nice enough

Stray Kids - 락 (樂) (LALALALA)

Damn those moves, and say true to those beats.

Spoiler Alert

---

Ohh and I so love what ifs

Okay, that is enough showing off how hip I am (NOT) for one week.

Hope you enjoyed the trip, and no, I did not watch the movie, but I will...especially after posting this and letting that 12-year-old demon know I did so....

And no, I will not do a before and after.

Next week I will go back to soul searching because I was almost there...almost home, and now see what the devil made me do!

Hence, hands up to that little devil for keeping me musically in shape.
