Reviews
Each cine-drama in the trio is set in a high school, depicting tales of old spirits and secrets that have been long buried in the scene - until now.
The first in the trio ..."8th anniversary" ….the best one according to me
So this one has it all hooked from the start ...short and to the point ...As expected from a horror story, the drama was often dark (literally) ...at times it would go in circles but end up at a different route every time ...a bit predictable, a bit unpredictable …
Although the story is on the familiar theme of exorcism and revenge (or rather karma?) There were other rules such as the 8th year trial and a new way to look at serial murders …(that was one of the ideas I loved ...not too much given attention to, but was quite fresh ) Nevertheless, it is still the typical story of ghosts possessing someone to take revenge.
So for people who like to watch horror movies and dramas ...this one could be a good choice cuz of it’s refreshing end ...but people who have a soft heart and do not like bloodshed ...you can enjoy the other lighter ones …
It’s not like the series will leave you scared or yelling….at least not me ( as someone who doesn’t even blink at sudden appearances/bloodshed on screen ...it was kinda okaish ...not too bad ...cuz I have seen even worse ...and thought how in the world they dare to add horror as genre)
So if you are looking for seriously scary stuff ...look elsewhere( tho if you aren't new to horror you might not find any...lol) ...but if you have nothing to watch or can’t decide ...ofc you can try this out ...it actually holds well considering it’s only 2 eps !!
Re-watch value ...after you know everything ...I don’t think there’s any need to re-watch ...since they don’t have too many petrifying scenes ...almost zero re-watch value (more like it’s quite a rare possibility you find it for the first time considering it’s viewership)
If you are watching it ...I hope you enjoy …
the other reviews for the series can be found on respective pages ...or maybe I'll drop a link in the comment ....(if you wish to read my opinion on them you can check the comment with spoiler tag)

As the drama name suggests the 8th anniversary the story beguns with it . A must-watch
I really liked this episode like woah!! It is really awesome . The ending was unpredictable , I was really shocked after the watching the flashback I really started to hate the character like "how can you do this", "this is wrong" thankfully she got her revenge .Acting :- It is really nice . The actors worked hard
Re-watch value:- I think that if you are watching a suspenseful movie /drama then the re-watch value is pretty low like you already know the killer or the one who was behind the mess then it gets a little boring . Re-watch value for this episode is pretty low but my re-watch value for other episode "the child who wouldn't come" is high as the male lead is really handsome
But it is really nice I recommend you to watch this
