K-Pop fans and idols alike are jumping on the KPop Demon Hunters bandwagon, but not everyone is a fan of this summer sensation.

KPop Demon Hunters is a new Sony animated movie about a trio of female idols who sing by day and slay demons by night. When a new threat arises (demons disguised as a rival boy group, the Saja Boys), HUNTR/X‘s Rumi is forced to confront her own personal demons while striking up a secret friendship with Saja Boys’ Jinu.

On the subreddit r/mildlyinfuriating, a user shared a story about their 13-year-old cousin and their aunt, who refused to let him watch KPop Demon Hunters. The user wrote, “My aunt put on KPop Demon Hunters a few days ago and turned it off because she didn’t like it. Today my other aunt told us that she turned it off because she didn’t think it was a good influence for her son and that the boy idols dressed too gay. Wtfffff I’m so confused.”

My aunt turned off K-pop demon hunters because she was worried it would turn her 13yr old son gay…?

Some commentators (jokingly) agreed that the user’s aunt has good reason to be concerned. After all, have you seen the Saja Boys?

Other users shared their personal anecdotes to prove that watching films like KPop Demon Hunters and Disney princess movies didn’t change who they are attracted to. That said, one user does want to have a genie and fight a lion–but can you blame him?

As other users pointed out, there are plenty of reasons why KPop Demon Hunters has attracted such a dedicated and varied fanbase. From the music to the action, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!
