'KPop Demon Hunters' stars on what they'd like to see in a sequel
When it comes to the possibility of a sequel for "KPop Demon Hunters," stars Arden Cho and May Hong may be tight-lipped. Still, it doesn't mean the actresses wouldn't love to see more of the fictional K-pop stars who have captured the hearts of kids and families across the U.S.
"I would love to see Mira's softer side," Hong, who voices Mira, one of the members of the fictional HUNTR/X K-pop girl group, said on "Good Morning America" Tuesday. "I have been saying lately that I would love to see her interact with Derpy and Sussie, because I want to hear her sort of reach a vocal pitch that you normally don't hear."
Cho, who voices Rumi, one-third of HUNTR/X, said she would love to explore Rumi's family background, which viewers come to learn in the movie is complicated, as Rumi is part-demon.
"I'd love to see where Rumi's family is from," Cho said. "I'd love to know the story of how [Rumi's human] mom and [demon] dad met and how HUNTR/X formed, and then we've got to go find [demon character] Jinu -- well, or save him."
Since its release, "KPop Demon Hunters" has quickly rocketed to the top of Netflix's streaming charts, becoming the most popular film of all time on Netflix's Most Popular English Films list with more than 3 billion global streams, according to Netflix.
The movie also stars Ji-young Yoo as the voice of Zoey, the third member in HUNTR/X, and Ahn Hyo-seop as the voice of HUNTR/X's main rival, Jinu. Both Yoo and Ahn, who couldn't join their fellow co-stars on "GMA" in person, sent in voice messages and asked the young fans on set about their favorite song from the movie.
Ken Jeong and Daniel Dae Kim are also among the stars in the ensemble cast, lending their voices to the characters Bobby -- HUNTR/X's agent and manager -- and Healer Han, respectively.
