Penguin Random House Launches Multi-Book Program for KPop Demon Hunters
Two of the KPop Demon Hunters books in Netflix collaboration.
Random House Children’s Books, Random House Worlds, and Penguin Young Readers are thrilled to announce an exciting new collection of KPop Demon Hunters books in collaboration with Netflix. The program will include a range of beautifully designed, fan-forward titles celebrating the high-energy, music-driven world of KPop Demon Hunters, extending the cinematic experience onto the page through humor, creativity, and art.
KPop Demon Hunters is the most popular Netflix film of all time, produced in partnership with Sony Pictures Animation. Its chart-topping soundtrack became the soundtrack of the summer, earning 8.3 billion streams globally across its various versions, and producing the longest-running #1 hit by a girl group on the Billboard Hot 100 in the 21st century. With five Grammy nominations, the music of the film continues to make history with “Golden,” one of the first songs by K-pop artists to be nominated for Song of the Year. Also up for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, marking another milestone: the first time two songs by K-pop artists have been nominated in that category in the same year.
Available for pre-order now and launching December 30, 2025, Random House Children’s Books will publish two must-have titles for fans and collectors—FOR THE FANS! LITTLE GOLDEN BOOK and KPOP DEMON HUNTERS: THE OFFICIAL POSTER BOOK. These will be followed by additional titles based on the original plot and in a range of formats beginning Spring 2026, including activity books, sticker books, and more!
Random House Worlds will expand the captivating KPop Demon Hunters universe for adult fans with a sophisticated coloring book in Fall 2026, followed by a manhwa edition slated to release in 2027, plus more exciting projects to be announced at a later date.
Additionally, Penguin Young Readers will publish KPOP DEMON HUNTERS MAD LIBS, an exciting new addition to “the world’s greatest word game” that provides fun for all ages and builds reading comprehension and grammar skills in young readers. With 21 fill-in-the-blank stories perfect for playing alone, in a group, or on stage with HUNTR/X, this book is the perfect gift for anyone who likes to laugh.
This publishing collaboration builds on the global popularity of KPop Demon Hunters, which has captured audiences with its blend of K-pop culture, supernatural adventure, and heartfelt storytelling. Together, Random House Children’s Books, Random House Worlds, and Penguin Young Readers will deliver a dynamic range of books for fans of all ages—from collectors and movie lovers to new readers discovering the universe for the first time.
