KPop Demon hunters 😈

I loved the animated Netflix movie KPop Demon Hunters. It's a tear-jerker—even just listening to the climax song in my car last night brought some eye wetness. And somehow the premise, despite being totally absurd, not only works, it feels relevant to the world we inhabit today. The temptation is to do a "Takedown" of all that we don't like, maintaining our "golden" ego (which brilliantly includes portraying ourselves as vulnerable, but only after we've privately done whatever we need to get right with being seen that way, so not real vulnerability). But what we need is to fully embrace the wholeness of who and what we are in connection with others, trusting them to have our backs including our flaws (What It Sounds Like) and then let love be our defiant response when we're facing our demons.

 

With love, Jordan
