The drop rate calculates the number of viewers who have stopped watching the film over time. For most of the viral titles on streaming platforms, a steep decline in viewership ratings can often be seen in the early phase of their release. But K-Pop Demon Hunters maintains the count still now, and K-netizens expressed their excitement and shared that they know why. Some think that its rewatchable mostly among the young audience because of the modern touch to the Korean culture. Others believe it’s the songs’ magic.
As per TheQoo (via Koreaboo), one of the Korean netizens wrote, “The more I watch it, the more I realize how well-made it is, lol. It might not be super fun for everyone, but I think most people would agree it’s really well-crafted.” Another one stated, “Maybe it’s because kids keep rewatching the stuff they like like they’re streaming it nonstop, lol. My kindergartener niece was singing ‘Golden,’ hahaha.” One of them commented, “It’s still fun even after rewatching it, lol.”
