The story seemed like a cut and past of basic cliches thst aren’t that good. There’s no background information on characters and the storyline is garbage. For a short drama that’s basically 2 hours long, I thought it would’ve been a little better, but it wasn’t. It’s the worst horror concept I’ve seen. It’s like if the anime School Days had a remake with the plot changed. The acting is also really bad, to the point that it’s laughable. I guess the plot twist was nice and cleared up things, but the storyline was just really bad. The ending wasn’t clear either, I guess they both died together or something because the boy left with this father in the end and didn’t come out with the girl or the other dude so tsk idk. It was just awful in my opinion. Was this review helpful to you?

What was that?
I started watching knowing it was confusing but I was not expecting to be so bad like that. At first, what caught my attention was how the acting is extremely fake. I don't even know if they are humans! If you want to watch and can put in 1,5x faster it would be more natural than the normal (1x). And the script? I didn't understand nothing! I am super sad because the story could be so attractive if they put a like more effort in this. It's a waste of time. If you want to know what happens, just search it.Was this review helpful to you?
As a writer myself who enjoys movies based on story and scripting, this show exceeded all my expectations. The narration is meaty and straightforward - it tells you the premise and what you need to know just enough to make you think you know a lot - but of course you’ll never expect what will happen next. The concept is simple yet brilliant. The theme of death and “how did it happen?” will make you keep guessing. And the best part is in the end, there was an attempt to tie the whole story together and complete the puzzle piece; tying loose ends with a flashback of the past to make you understand the beginning. I won’t say there are no plot holes, but it’s not as important as the main things they were able to nail and accomplish in that ending. Explanations were given, and for those ones they didn’t, let me tell you, it’s called poetic license. we were given enough explanation on the story, and sometimes, you just have to accept not everything needs to make sense.
The acting is okay. Usually I find Kdrama acting a bit cringy, but this had just a few moments and side characters you will barely care about, because the focus is on the mystery and story itself. I had my fair share of “this scene or line or setting isn’t needed,” but overall It’s tolerable to say the least.
I’m seeing a lot of disappointed people, and I’m not sure why. I personally find this to have such an amazing narrative with a satisfying ending. After watching it I was overwhelmed, full of emotions I barely recognized - confused, happy, and satisfied as I stare outside the window thinking “what the hell was that?”
I’m very happy I tried this out. It’s a short, flavourful watch and I think it deserves more credit than what’s being given. it deserves everyone’s chance.

....Now I see why they rated so low.
The show... gave me such a headache that even a hour later, still hasn't gone away -- and neither has the confusion.
I had such high hopes for this show. The synopsis, the cover, everything about it just seemed like my kind of thing and it started out promising as hell!
I feel like all the actors did a amazing job, because really, their acting is what kept me going. Everything else was a mess. The storyline has so much potential. Had this been directed better or written better, I feel like this could easily been a hit that everyone would talk about years later.
But sadly, so much was choppy and the time cuts just didn't seem natural, nothing really "flowed". It felt like they were rushing against time to get things done so they took shortcuts -- and it shows.
The storyline itself really was a good one but could use a bit of buffing out to make more sense. Like, I get it. I saw the ending, which I was NOT EXPECTING! but it still left me with more questions than I would like. Lol It felt like a semi-open ending and I hate open endings of any kind.
Hats off to the plot twist. I felt like I was on drugs when that happened. Lol I really thought I had lost my mind. It took me by such surprise. Lol Which I'm glad, not much surprises me anymore, so I did like that. lol
I really hope that if this ever gets redone that they make it a bit cleaner to make more sense.
