This is stupid. There are a lot of bands out there with the same name. Sometimes, they’ll add something generic to distinguish like “UK” if they are from the United Kingdom and the other is from the United States.

Nobody outside of the niche Christian metal audience has ever heard of these guys. Nobody is seeing “KPop Demon Hunters” and thinking it’s them.

Netflix is almost required to say that.
They'll still settle

Surely anyone searching for them would use, like, -kpop to remove those results. Or add metal band. Changing the name of the band isn't even necessary.

Just lookin' for money.
