It's Ben's birthday show and we're talking about something that is a horror movie in roughly the same percentage as Funny People is a comedy, it's K-Pop Demon Hunters!Listen to us as we marvel at the brilliant writing. Nod with us as we observe the nature of a completely abusive mentorship. Worry with us as we consider the troubling connotations of lore around this world that isn't fully built out in a way that makes us wonder if maybe our heroes aren't heroes at all. We're here to go in way too seriously deep on K-Pop Demon Hunters and we have a first time guest, the writer of Genderqueer, Maia Kobabe here to show us how it's done done done.Who's Responsible for this?Director: Chris Appelhans Maggie KangWriters: Danya Jimenez, Hannah McMechan, Maggie KangStars: Arden Cho, May Hong, Ji-young Yoo, Ahn Hyo-seop, Yunjin Kim.
