Sleep tells the story of a newlywed couple, Hyun Soo and Soo Jin, whose happiness is disrupted by the husband Hyun Soo's disturbing behavior during sleep and the horrifying secret that begins when he falls asleep. It stars actors Lee Sun Kyun and Jung Yu Mi.

The film has consistently maintained its position as the top-grossing movie since its release on the 6th. Despite the competition from new releases in its second week, it continues to perform well, drawing attention.
