Now here's what I wanna know.

The genre is called K-Pop.

If you look at the title, it actually says "K-Pop" in the title/logo. It's attached to the P, but there's clearly a dash there.

The movie's working title was "K-Pop: Demon Hunters" (note the added colon).

Yet nobody leaves the hyphen in, and the Wikipedia article on the film uses the hyphen in every instance of "K-Pop" except for in the title.

Maybe it's just me but that's fucking weird.

Still love the movie, and the soundtrack; hell, I got a sticker of them on my water bottle. Just kinda weird that they do the name like that and like nobody's asking. Maybe I'm weird for asking. Oh well. Never said I wasn't.
