Netflix’s animated film KPop Demon Hunters is smashing expectations with insane viewer retention. The movie’s third week saw only a 6.2% drop in viewership, a rare feat for animated content.
It now has 56.1 million views and shows no signs of slowing down.
According to What’s On Netflix, most titles drop sharply after debut weeks. Not KPop Demon Hunters. The near-steady numbers are gaining buzz online.
Fans think the secret lies in its rewatchability, especially among kids. Users compare it to how children watch favorite YouTube clips or songs on repeat.
The discussion is blowing up on Korean forums, with reactions like:
“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.”
“Ah, it’s like how kids watch the same YouTube videos over and over again, lol.”
“It’s still fun even after rewatching it, lol.”
The consistency is now viral, pointing to a long-lasting impact for Netflix’s animated projects.
