What is K-Pop Demon Hunters?

K-Pop Demon Hunters is Netflix's 2025 animated musical sensation about a K-pop girl group battling evil spirits across Korea. The show became an instant global hit, with its OST tracks like "Golden" and "Soda Pop" topping charts worldwide. Now, Everland—Korea's largest theme park—has transformed this beloved story into a real-world experience where visitors can step into the screen.

Why Families Love This Theme Zone

Located in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province (about 1 hour from downtown Seoul), this seasonal event combines:

• Interactive mini-games with varying difficulty levels for all ages

The Experience: Mission-Based Fun for All Ages

When you enter through the traditional Korean hanok-style gate, you're greeted by massive LED screens playing highlights from the show with hit OST tracks setting the festival mood. Every corner features character sculptures, props, and the adorable tiger mascot Derpy.

The zone operates on a stamp mission system—complete activities to collect stamps on your mission card and earn character goods as prizes. Kids especially love this "achievement unlock" element!
