In the film, the girl gang, Huntrix, faces a rival boy band named Saja Boys. While the boy group consisted of demons, people who watched the film discussed the real-life inspiration of the members, and many were surprised to discover who voiced which character. If you don’t know yet, it might leave you surprised too.
Ahn Hyo-Seop (popularly known for his drama Business Proposal) has voiced the lead singer of Saja Boys. This was his first voice acting role, and he has done an admirable job. The South Korean actor has also shared a few glimpses of his character on his personal social media platform.
However, many might not know that Andrew Choi, a singer under the label SM Entertainment, has voiced Jinu’s singing voice. Abs Saja has been voiced by Sungwon Cho, but NECKWAV dubbed his singing voice. Joel Kim Booster voiced the romance Saja, and SamUIL Lee contributed to the character’s singing voice.

Baby Saja, the maknae of the group, didn’t have a credited voice actor, but Danny Chung contributed for his singing voice. Last but not least, Mystery Saja was voiced by Alan Lee. However, U-KISS’s Kevin Woo gives the character’s singing voice. After learning about who voiced the SAJA Boys, netizens went crazy. According to TheQoo (per Koreaboo), one fan wrote, “These are the people who sang, right? Crazy, no wonder the songs were insanely good. They gathered producer-level talents for this.” Another one commented, “Andrew Choi—is that the same guy from K-Pop Star?”
