Hani slayed it
Horror and Sci-Fi meet in this episode. The horror scenes are bloody good! Hani portrays as a gamer named Juno. She has to go through several stages of fear in the game.
During the game, the teacher explains Greek Mythology. Crows originally had beautiful white feathers. They were Apollo's messenger, but one day they came back late with a message. Because it wasn't focused on the task, Apollo asked why the crow was late. The Crow says Apollo's wife Coronis had an affair, which was a lie. Apollo believed the crow. So he kills Coronis. But he finds out the crow lied after he kills Coronis. Apollo gets so angry and he burns the crow to death. That is why the crow came to have black feathers.
This myth drives the story deep. At the beginning of the episode, we find Juno's classmate commenting on her Live stream, a rumor on suicide. Juno believes it's all a lie, when she starts playing the game, she has to go through several stages of fear. In these stages, we see her past. Same school, same students, same setting with serious horror. Students turning to crows was really scary. I really loved the Crow reference.
In the end, The crow simply didn't want to be hated. Hence...I am not going to spoil it. In the end, she turns into... It's so beautiful.
