The 4K three-disc set includes a Dolby Vision HDR master, Dolby Atmos audio, new artwork by Ami Thompson, director introductions, a making-of documentary, video essays, lyric videos, an art book and an essay by critic Karen Han; it is listed at $49.95, with some pre-order discounts available.

KPop Demon Hunters is an animated musical film made for Netflix. It follows a fictional K-pop girl group who perform for fans while secretly protecting the world from supernatural threats.
K-pop, short for Korean pop music, is a global music industry built around highly produced songs, choreography and idol groups. The film draws on that style while combining it with fantasy action and comedy.
Netflix usually makes its films available through its streaming service rather than on discs. Criterion is a US home-video company known for carefully produced editions of films, often adding restored picture and sound, behind-the-scenes material and written context for collectors.
