Netflix Delivers: 'KPop Demon Hunters' Gets Long-Overdue Art Book Treatment
In a much-awaited move, Netflix has released an extensive art book for its K-Pop Demon Hunters series. The 142-page digital tome offers a visual feast of concept art, character designs, and behind-the-scenes insights into the making of the show.
Among the featured artists are those who have previously shared their work on social media, such as Ami Thompson and Celine Dahyeu Kim. However, there's also a wealth of new material on display, including contributions from visual development artist Won Sul Hyun and character designer Euni Cho. Fans can now explore the film's evolution in greater depth.
This art book marks an interesting strategy by Netflix, emulating that employed by Guillermo del Toro for Pinocchio, which was accompanied by a digital art book as part of its awards run. It's been reported that Netflix hopes this supplemental material will garner some attention from Oscar voters, although given the popularity and visibility of K-Pop Demon Hunters already, it seems unlikely to be necessary.
The release is just one part of an ongoing expansion of the series' presence, which also includes upcoming Mattel dolls, a Secret Lair drop in Magic: The Gathering, and even a sequel set to premiere on Netflix by 2029. A physical version of the art book has also been confirmed for release sometime in 2026.
Viewers can access the K-Pop Demon Hunters art book now; it's available online with a promised physical edition following later next year.

. I've been following this show since its release and I gotta say, the fan art community has been creating some amazing stuff online. Seeing it get showcased in a proper art book is like, totally worth it! 
.
... but seriously, this is a great way for them to engage with fans and show their appreciation for the show's popularity.
. I mean, come on, an art book for a Netflix series? It's like they're saying, "Hey, we know you love us, but here's some behind-the-scenes goodness to make you even love us more 
." And who doesn't love a good art book? It's like a treasure chest of K-Pop Demon Hunters goodness 
. I think it's actually kind of cool that Netflix is trying this out – it shows they care about their fans and want to give them something extra special 
. Of course, it's probably just business, but even so, it's nice to see creators like Ami Thompson and Celine Dahyeu Kim getting their work out there 
!
like, who wouldn't want to dive deeper into the world of K-Pop Demon Hunters? I love how they're releasing these art books like, for real. it's not just about throwing some extra content at us, but also about giving the fans a chance to really get to know the creative process behind the show.
why do we have to dig through all this extra info on Netflix just to find out they released an art book for KPop Demon Hunters?! Can't they just put it front and center on the homepage like a "New Release" thingy? 
At least they're trying to be extra by throwing some Oscar buzz around, but honestly, it feels like a stretch. 
Can't wait for the physical version tho, but still... 
I mean, who doesn't love seeing behind-the-scenes stuff like this? The fact that they're releasing an art book for the show is really cool, especially since some of the artists involved have already shared their work on social media. Its great to see them showcasing new material too - I'm sure fans are gonna go wild over it!
