Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters, released on June 20, 2025, showcases two K-pop groups, one boy group and one girl group, and their unique rivalry. Known as the Saja Boys, the boy group left fans intrigued with their charm in the series. Saja Boys consists of five members, namely Romance, Baby, Jinu, Abby, and Mystery, and each member brings a distinctive personality to the group. One of the things that has drawn fans’ attention is the meaning behind the group’s name.The word “Saja” in Korean means “lion,” which symbolizes strength and fierceness. But when written in Hanja, which are Chinese characters used in Korean, it can also mean “grim reaper” in certain contexts.This dual meaning has left fans captivated with its clever wordplay. The discourse amongst netizens on social media highlights that the name is an accurate representation of what the group symbolizes: on the surface, they embody the characteristics of wild, untamed lions, but underneath, they carry the essence of reapers, with a darker, soul-stealing side.More about the dynamic Saja Boys in Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters View this post on Instagram Instagram PostDirector Maggie Kang revealed that members of well-known K-pop groups such as BTS, TXT, ATEEZ, Stray Kids, BIGBANG, and MONSTA X heavily influenced the visual concept for Saja Boys.
