The film was released on Netflix on June 20, 2025. From traditional touches of folklore and mythology to the contemporary global K-pop sensation, the film incorporates varied Korean aspects into a thrilling story.

As the notorious demon king, Gwi-ma, gains power by feeding on souls captured through his demons, a trio of female hunters successfully overpowers the dark forces in the past. They create a protective barrier over the world called the Hanmoon, which weakens the demons and Gwi-ma.

For generations, different females have taken over the legacy of hunters and continue to make Honmoon powerful. These hunters are also gifted with music, having the ability to use their powers and music to protect the world. The present time's hunters, Rumi, Mira, and Zoey, just follow the footsteps of their predecessors by taking the dual avatars of the girl group, Huntrix, and the hunters.

Things take a turn as a demon, Jinu, forms a boy group called Saja Boys with other fellow demons to empower Gwi-ma in exchange for getting his painful memories erased. With stronger enemies, musical competition, and impending catastrophe at hand, the film follows how Huntrix saves the day together and protects their fans and the world from the dark powers.
