The rollout of KPop Demon Hunters merch has always been inevitable. When Netflix realized they had one of the biggest releases of the year on their hands, they unleashed Huntrix onto an unsuspecting box office and began to get all the officially licensed merch you could ask for onto the market. Now Penguin Random House is getting into the act with an aggressive KPop Demon Hunters book rollout that will take fans through 2026 and into 2027.
The publisher is releasing multiple books tied to the KPop Demon Hunters world, starting at the end of December 2025. A children’s book titled For the Fans! Little Golden Book and KPop Demon Hunters: The Official Poster Book will both go on sale on December 30, 2025. In Spring 2026, they will be followed by activity books, sticker books, and other similar titles.
For adults, a “sophisticated” coloring book based on KPop Demon Hunters is coming out in fall 2026, while a manhwa adaptation of the movie is coming in 2027, with no release window confirmed yet. While that is a long way out, it is a lot sooner than the 2029 release window for KPop Demon Hunters 2. Combined with the upcoming KPop Demon Hunters merch that has been announced by Hasbro and Mattel for January 2026 and the shoe collection already out from Vans, it is clear that Netflix expects the hype around this movie to continue for several years still.
None of the newly announced KPop Demon Hunters books will be out before Christmas 2025, but Netflix and Penguin Random House are still giving us what we want. It is all for the fans, after all.
