409 - The Strange Symbolism of K-Pop Demon Hunters: Shame, Attention, LGBT, Jung


Listen Later

I finally watched K-Pop Demon Hunters after so many of you kept asking about it. In this episode, I explore the strange mix of symbolism: demons, idols, and the way the film deals with shame, music, and attention. There are fascinating elements in the story, but also some deep problems from a symbolic and Christian perspective. Let’s dive in together.
