While Netflix’s animated hit K-Pop Demon Hunters continues to capture audiences worldwide, the newly launched official merchandise has sparked a different kind of buzz—this time for its price. The merch line features apparel modeled after the exact outfits worn by the film’s characters, including joggers, hoodies, sweatshirts, and even novelty items like an ab-print tee. Each piece is crafted to mirror key wardrobe moments from the film.

However, the price tags have fans doing a double take. The eye-catching polar bear sweatshirt worn by Mira is listed at 87,000 KRW (approx. $63 USD), while character hoodies range from 79,000 KRW ($57 USD) to a steep 101,000 KRW ($72 USD). Even a floral shirt from the Saja Boys collection matches the top-end pricing at 87,000 KRW.

Among the most talked-about items is a tongue-in-cheek “ab shirt”, which many assumed would be more affordable. Instead, it’s priced at 63,000 KRW ($45 USD), leaving some fans speechless. As Netflix continues to expand its original content, it has also ventured into merchandise — but not everyone is thrilled. While some fans expressed interest in the design, many were shocked at the price tag and questioned Netflix’s execution of its merchandise strategy.

Comments on theqoo:

  1. I want the Soda Pop shirt.
  2. Do I have to buy the abs T-shirt and the shirt as a set? LOL
  3. I scrolled down laughing, but when they mentioned the price, I scrolled back up to double-check — wow.
  4. The price is insane.
  5. Abby’s shirt ♡
  6. Netflix should stop trying to sell merch. If they don’t have their own production line, they should at least do proper collaborations.
  7. Wow, it’s so expensive.

The polarizing responses reflect a broader debate on the balance between fan service and affordability. While the attention to detail in replicating outfits is undeniable, the high price point is proving to be a hurdle for many potential buyers. Whether or not fans will splurge on the merch remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: K-Pop Demon Hunters continues to spark conversation—on and off the screen.
