Maggie Kang, the director of Netflix's animated film 'K-Pop Demon Hunters,' recently made a special appearance on the YouTube web show 'MMTG.' This appearance was particularly significant as it was the only YouTube show she participated in during her visit to Korea, and it was initiated by Kang herself.
The interview covered a wide range of topics, including Kang's life, career, passion as a K-pop fan, and behind-the-scenes insights into the making of 'K-Pop Demon Hunters.' Notably, the show's host, JaeJae, dressed up as 'JaeRumi,' a character inspired by the film's protagonist, Rumi, adding a playful touch to the interview. Kang was visibly amused by JaeJae's creative approach, creating a lively atmosphere.
The most intriguing part of the interview was the behind-the-scenes revelations. Kang shared detailed insights into the film's settings, character development, music, and direction, even hinting at potential sequels, which heightened anticipation among fans.
Kang's deep-rooted passion for K-pop was also evident. She impressed JaeJae by identifying various idol group members' roles and characteristics just by looking at their photos, showcasing her extensive knowledge of the genre.
The production team of 'MMTG' stated, "This was not just a simple interview; we prepared various elements to bring out the true story of Maggie Kang. It's a must-watch for viewers curious about the creation of content that bridges K-pop and animation."
The full interview with Maggie Kang will be available on the 'MMTG' channel on September 11 at 6 PM.
