This movie is something else.

First off the story is very interesting. The setting is set in the beautiful Korean woods. The scenery adds to that creepy feeling of no escape. It's also set in 1938 which is interesting as it's set in the time Japan ruled over Korea. Even before the movie starts you get this feeling of powerlessness.

The acting is very well done. In horror movies from any country, acting is always the most important as it sets the mood. The acting these ladies had to do was very believable. Not to spoiler anything, there are scenes where you just can't believe they pulled it off.

You don't really get to hear much of the OST for this movie as it's normally not what you're focusing on. Yet the music and sound effects add to the effect of every scene.

Now, into the nitty gritty (without having to spoiler anything). After the ending, you are left with nothing, but questions. There is also a really of a relationship building with Joo Ran and Yeon Deok yet this isn't really explored which felt like nothing, but a tease. A personal added note a found this movie on Netflix and the bio says nothing about the time period and Japanese ruling. So when they kept switching from Japanese to Korean it caught me off guard and it made me very confused, but this of course is a mistake on Netflix's end. Still be prepared for bilingualism.

The rewatch value isn't very good as it's a horror movie. The scares aren't really anything in this film in the first place. Seeing them again would have even less of an effect. The main plot force starts to get good yet is stopped abruptly when the movie ends. Also this movie has quite a slow start as the first time the plot becomes interesting it's 30 minutes in. It also doesn't help that the entire is already 1 hour and 39 minutes.

In the end, I would say give this movie a try. I feel like it will be a big yes or no for people. I wouldn't really this film any priority, but if you have the extra time, why not. It's not really good, but it definitely isn't horrible. It gets my award of 'Being Okay'.

Oh my lord do I love this drama! I love web dramas in particular, but this one caught my interests. To be fair it's nothing we haven't seen before. CEO falls for sly, foolish poor girl yet they do add their own spin. If you love romantic comedies, but you don't have time to watch a full length hour long episode, this series is for you!

Now onto the real critique. This show is quite the binge watcher. I finished this drama in two days & having to stay up to do so. The story, as I said before, is nothing new, but they do add crazy spins. A perfect example is from the bio itself saying that he gets stabbed which made me interested. Acting is amazing as Sung Hoon plays his character fantastically. Jae Hyung at some points where she was frustrated would make weird, off point facial expressions, but you won't see unless you squint really damn hard.The OST for this show is outstanding. The songs would make me feel nothing, but happiness & other times it would make me bawl my eyes out which I feel an OST should do. The rewatch value on this extra high as every episode is 15-16 minutes long (besides the last episode which is 20 minutes). It's a real innovative & fun show that is perfect to just watch on a weekend off.

IF I MADE ANY GRAMMAR MISTAKES I WROTE THIS RIGHT AFTER I FINISHED BINGE WATCHING IT & IT'S 4:42AM ON A TUESDAY PRAY FOR ME
