When Gwi-Ma, the main leader of the demons, is trying to find a way to get a large amount of souls absorbed, one of the demons named Jinu proposes that he and several other demons disguise themselves as a K-pop group named The Saja Boys. Mira and Zoey wish to take them down, but Rumi gets to know Jinu and has a slight change of how she feels about demons, especially since she's half demon herself.When the film premiered on Netflix, it became critically acclaimed by critics and viewers praising the animation, characters, and soundtrack.
