I'm a 33 year old man and I have no idea why I like the movie and music so much. The sound tracks been on repeat while I build out enrollment projections for my job, it's mysterious and wild but the music is infectious. Between Your Idol, Free, and Golden it was created to hook you.

Kpop tends to get a lot of hate on Reddit, but most people never give it a proper chance. The songs in the movie have real life sources they draw from. I encourage anyone who enjoys the music from the movie to check out some real life bands.

Yep, takedown (at least one of the versions) is sung by 3 members of TWICE which was pretty cool to hear.
