Metaphysical horror film from South Korea. An obvious influence from other films of the genre, could be a modern Poltergeist or Insidious, with the excellent Korean cinema giving its own identity to the genre. It all started decades ago with a dramatic and painful death of a girl. Something that, however, remained to be haunted over the years. Many children disappeared from time to time under unknown circumstances. Now, a widowed father and his daughter are moving to a remote house close to nature so that the girl can feel a little bit better after the loss of her mother. However, there is something strange in the little girl's room and specifically in the closet. Something that will make the little one change gradually until she mysteriously disappears. How far can her father go to bring her back? An excellent effort from Korea, with good acting, very good direction and effects and a good balance of action / suspense and plot but also a balance of horror / drama and humor, although I would personally remove every element of humor to make it even darker. Very good recommendation overall from Korea and definitely recommended for fans of the genre.
