It’s not actually a group, it’s just a movie. And they weren’t pushing it. Netflix released it thinking it wouldn’t go anywhere, and it took off. That’s why there isn’t a lot of merch for it (and it’s just now coming out), because they didn’t expect it to take off like it did. Now they’re pushing merch and kicking themselves for not doing it sooner. Now they’re pushing it to try to meet demand. It’s largely being pulled by grade school girls and young adults.
As for “new group,” I’d say you’re confusing KPDH with 22/7, only most people don’t know what 22/7 is. 22/7 is a Japanese pop group who have an anime which tells a fictional tale of a mysterious wall that spits out cards with orders that people follow, eventually creating an idol group to win the hearts and minds of the people. But 22/7 is an actual group that records music and releases it. Their best song isn’t even in the anime — it was released after.
With KPDH, it’s just a movie, though if the producers and whatnot were smart, they’d take the three singers who do the singing voices of the HUNTR/X girls, and have them record together… like 22/7 do. So by the time the next movie comes out, they’ve already had a couple albums out, and this can play into the lore of the new film. EJAE (Rumi) is a K-Pop star in her own right, but they don’t have to write songs. The pop industry has for decades had other people write songs for the performers. (The other two are also singers, none of them are very good on their own, though it’s subjective, but the other two are quite unlike HUNTR/X, with a lot of explicit stuff. Not something you want your grade school daughter looking into.) (They should also do the same with the Saja Boys.) (Of course, if KPDH has you jonesing for K-Pop, you could just listen to BTS if you like the boys, and Blackpink if you like the girls, then branch out from there. Or K/DA if you like cartoon bands — they did music for League of Legends, before Jinx/Arcane were the focus. K/DA is probably the most similar to HUNTR/X as far as I can tell.)
Hey you seem like you know a lot about this stuff… Any idea what a 4 year old could watch that’s in the same realm? I might lose my mind if I have to hear that movie everyday again for the next week…
