Scroll through your TikTok or Instagram Reels, and chances are you’ll spot someone dancing or singing along to “Soda Pop” or “Golden.” Against all odds, the Netflix animated film “K-pop Demon Hunters” has drawn a surprisingly large adult fan base—bigger than its child audience. I’ll admit, like many others (including yours truly), I rolled my eyes when I first heard about it, expecting some cringey Koreaboo fluff. But wow… was I wrong! Instead, it delivered killer music, jaw-dropping visuals, and a story you can’t help but obsess over.
And if you are still obsessed (maybe even planning that trip to Korea because of it), then you’re in the right place. Here’s your ultimate list of things to do in Seoul inspired by K-pop Demon Hunters!
1. Bukchon Hanok Village Walking Tour
- Address: 37 Gyedong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul (Kakao Maps)
- Opening Hours: Daily 10:00-17:00
With over 600 years of history dating all the way back to the Joseon Dynasty, Bukchon Hanok Village was once a residential area for high-ranking officials and nobility. Today, it’s home to around 900 traditional Korean houses (“hanok”), along with traditional tea houses, a museum, workshops for Korean crafts, and cultural heritage sites tucked away in its narrow alleys and streets. If something about these maze-like alleys seems familiar, that’s because this village’s distinctive skyline and atmospheric charm make an appearance in the film!

2. Kpop Classes
Code-switching between Korean and English is everywhere in the film, perfectly mirroring the real-life style of K-pop. It’s no secret that Korean has become one of the most-learned languages in the world, and with that surge in popularity, K-pop lyrics are weaving in more and more English too. Sure, you’ll pick up plenty of fun words and phrases just by watching the movie, but why stop there?
Why not join a K-pop dance class to nail the choreography for your favorite hits (you might even get to learn “Soda Pop” or “Golden”!)? And if you’re more about the vocals than the moves, head to a recording studio to sing and record your very own K-pop-style track. Who knows-upload it online and you might just get scouted. Dream big, right? 😉

3. Visit a Korean Spa
That iconic green scrubby towel that rubs your skin raw, the middle-aged spa attendants who give you exfoliating sessions so intense you’d swear they were bodybuilders in a past life, and those cute towel hats shaped like lamb ears that pop up in every K-drama. And who could forget the hard-boiled eggs, usually the last thing you want post-workout, but somehow gourmet-level at a Korean spa, and the thirst-quenching sikhye (rice punch)?
Kpop Demon Hunters loves the spa culture too, with the characters recharging in steamy tubs and bonding over the quirky spa traditions. Hitting up a Korean spa is like smashing the ultimate reset button for your body, so get ready to rest and recharge!
