US Edition'KPop Demon Hunters’ Songs Banned for Students of Religious School in England
The school acted to respect parents concerned about demon references in songs, aiming to support children respecting diverse beliefs in a community of 100 pupils, head teacher said.
- On Friday, Nov. 14, Lilliput Church of England Infant School in Poole asked parents to request pupils not to sing songs from KPop Demon Hunters, citing respect for differing faiths.
- Because some families objected on faith grounds, the school explained its request, saying parents felt references to demons conflicted with the Christian ethos and made them deeply uncomfortable.
- Following the initial message, Lloyd Allington emphasized respect for differing beliefs, saying, `While we fully respect your right to make choices about the content your child engages with at home, we also want to be mindful of the diversity of beliefs within our school community.`
- Some parents criticized the move as unreasonable, opposing the guidance as ridiculous, while parents supportive of the songs said `Golden` promoted teamwork and confidence and noted children attending after-school clubs sing them.
- KPop Demon Hunters' wide popularity complicates the local debate as it is one of Netflix's most successful movies, with songs like Golden crossing into mainstream charts and radio play.
