I just finished watching this movie on Netflix and i'm sitting here confused. I'm curious if i somehow missed something along the way in this movie. Let's clear one thing up though, this is not a bad movie. In fact it's pretty entertaining. It kept me engrossed until the end and kept me curious as to what was going on. It had a creepy, eerie vibe to it. But I've got to admit, the ending lost me. Maybe I just didn't get the movie or maybe I missed something but it felt unfinished. What was the motive? Was he guilty? What part did she play in it? Overall, not a bad movie by any means... it just felt pointless and left me unsatisfied in the end.

The film starts off interestingly mysterious, and there's a few creepy and scary scenes. However, the middle part of the movie becomes nothing more than business talk and rivalries within a big business.

The film (sort of) redeems itself towards the end. There's mention of demonic possession, but this is never clear or confirmed. It felt as if the writer didn't know how to justify the antagonist's actions and then opted for this explanation. The film doesn't feel well constructed with too many distractions from the primary premise.

Ko Asung was very good in her role as Lee Mi-Rye.

Litteraly one of my favourite ever films.

I love the acting, I love the story and how it has some very good twists.

Not filled with screaming and over the top music (the score is very well done) to take away from film or to try and make it scary just a good constant feeling of threat abit like the witch.

Shows how lonely life can be and over working or trying to be accepted.

It's also worth reading into the ending abit as I think some people are missing the supernatural point as why people are seeing certain things, as well few other things that I didn't pick up on my first watch but now seen it many times 😅

At the end of the movie, you will hate the story because you don't know where is the killer and why this girl kills people and you will be sorry to watch it.

I really like Korean cinema (I Saw the Devil, Train to Busan, OldBoy, etc) so I decided to watch this one too since it's on Netflix.

As far as murder mystery movies go, this is a decent one. And, I feel as though it has something to say - along the lines of 'don't work yourself to death' or 'an overly stressed person can *snap* due to their work environment'. I don't know, I'm just guessing.

It's made well: good sound design and the creepy atmosphere is effective when it needs to be.

It's not the strongest film I've seen from South Korea but to be fair I've only seen around 10 or so. But, if you're in the mood for a good thriller-whodunit movie give this one a shot.
