LOS ANGELES - Netflix's animated musical "KPop Demon Hunters" has become the first film on the platform to surpass 300 million views, the streaming giant said on Tuesday, reported German Press Agency (dpa).

The movie, released on June 20, had logged more than 314.2 million views around the world by Sept 14.

Netflix says it has more than 300 million subscribers worldwide - meaning that, statistically, every subscriber has streamed the film at least once.

The company counts viewing figures only for the first 91 days after release, so public tracking for "KPop Demon Hunters" ends on Sept 19.

Produced by Sony Pictures Animation, the fantasy follows the K-pop girl band Huntr/x, three young women who lead double lives as demon hunters.

Their mission is complicated when a rival boy band appears whose members turn out to be demons themselves.
