Discovery Channel is developing a Shark Week special titled “KPop Shark Heroes,” which draws on the animated world of Netflix’s “KPop Demon Hunters.” Multiple outlets report that the program brings in Ken Jeong and Rei Ami as featured performers. Jeong is announced as part of the cast, while Rei Ami—described as the singing voice of the “KPop Demon Hunters” character Zoey—is also starring in the special. The project is framed as a crossover that connects Shark Week programming with the “KPop Demon Hunters” franchise, using the connection between Ami’s role in the Netflix series and her appearance in the Discovery special. Both reports indicate the special is designed to link Shark Week content with the style and recognition of the “KPop Demon Hunters” property, suggesting that the “KPop Shark Heroes” concept is built around that adaptation. The outlets do not add conflicting details about the core casting or the program’s title, but they emphasize different positioning, with one highlighting the crossover connection to the Netflix animated film and another focusing on the purpose of the Shark Week special.
