Thirteen different thumbnails drawn by Mingjue Chen for KPop Demon Hunters. It all depicts Rumi and Jinu meeting secretly for their duet, so there’s drawings of them holding hands on a bridge, some romantic rooftop dates, riding on Derpy’s back, etc.
Thumbnail sketch of Rumi and Jinu riding on Derpy the tiger’s back as he flies through the night sky. Jinu holds Rumi’s waist the same way Jack held Rose in the Titanic film. Art by Mingjue Chen for KPop Demon Hunters
Mingjue Chen: “I usually don’t like posting thumbnails, but here are the thumbs I pitched that became the previous duet paintings. I like simple compositions that say a lot, and I’ll always regret not painting the one on slide 2 😔”

I'm a bit late, but I was finally able to finish the drawing! I still can't get over the movie, especially since social media is still full of it.

Rumi sitting on top of a bridge looking dejected, her head tucked into her knees. The city in the background looms large above her. Art by Celine Kim for KPOP DEMON HUNTERS
Jinu appears kneeling in front of Rumi. Both of them have demon horns and patterns visible on their faces and neck. Jinu is smiling at Rumi as if comforting her. The light is very warm and romantic. Art by Celine Kim for KPOP DEMON HUNTERS
Celine Kim: “A Rujinu moment I did early on KDH. Wanted the composition here to feel like the city she needs to protect becomes a pressure on her. And once Jinu appears, nothing matters and the background goes out of focus ❤️🩹”

These two live in my head rent-free together with the whole soundtrack of the movie.
The movie is beautiful and it even managed to get me out of my year-long art block. Hoping to finish this as soon as I have the time.

![Finally, I have to ask specifically about Jinu's (Ahn Hyo-Seop) design. When he was introduced and lifted his head, I definitely gasped a little. What was most important for you to portray in this character?
Appelhans: My wife is Korean, and she introduced me to Korean dramas 20 years ago. And so I have lived through the experience of having your first male lead blow your socks off so many times. Because a good one, when he shows up on the scene, he has that moment and you're just like, "Ahh!" The guy from Vincenzo, I saw a few clips [and was like,] "I don't get this guy. He's not doing it for me." And then there was finally the scene where he's walking up to somebody in slow-mo like, "Oh, it happened! There it is, he's doing it!" Maggie and I both instantly knew we wanted to have Jinu do that. It was actually a shot that at the very last minute, we added some more frames at the end. They're like, you don't have any more time or any more animation quota, you're done. We're just begging, like, "Please, can you guys just squeeze — get one animated for half a day and add another half a second so we can linger on that look." And that was the difference between getting butterflies and not. It's one of those, if you know you know.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ijfqyskstt56a3d5fzx45oc4/bafkreicg3by2bpln34gz3saqwzmwntvyy4zefz6nocxr4x53q32jpjro4m)

Jinu with his shirt open clutching a letter he wrote for Rumi and casually leaning on a tiger statue that's coming to life, its yellow eyes shining bright. Art by Mingjue Chen.
Mingjue Chen: "I pitched a moment where Jinu would tap on one of the many tiger statues around Seoul to summon Derpy to send his little notes. Jinu's shirt did not have to be open but somehow it just happened?? Slightly different style derpy, before @radsechrist designed the icon you see in screen."

A variation of the "ah shit, here we go again" meme. A screenshot from a video game of a person on the right side of the image looking and walking down an alley. At the end of the alley is a screencap of the Jinu/Rumi (KPop Demon Hunters) tag on AO3. At the bottom of the image is white text that says "Ah shit, here we go again"
