Netflix content <K-POP DEMON HUNTERS> has recently been gaining substantial attention in the SNS and advertising fields due to its vivid K-pop visual direction and original universe, sensuously blending symbolic settings such as Seoul’s cityscape at night or palace backgrounds for mass appeal and novelty. K-culture content is expanding toward imparting characters and narratives onto K-pop’s distinctive style, with visually-driven direction combined with the urban backdrop of Seoul drawing strong responses.

Planning Points:

• Background shots leveraging city lights, neon signs, and night views of Seoul

• Images fusing traditional mood with Y2K-inspired fashion and trendy outfits

• Small holiday tables staged with traditional foods and gift sets as the background

• Table settings showing the young generation preparing memorial rites or making meal-kit foods for the holidays

• Scenes of single-person households greeting family via video calls for the holidays

• Clean-background images with a subtle traditional mood
