There's no light in the Light Shop!
Man..this was way too depressing i have no words. My headache has gotten worse after watching this haha :D1. All the episodes are shot in the dark.. you will find the light only in the Light shop! Now i know how crazy I'm sounding lmao!!!! you will not realize it until you watch it :D
2. I really liked the cast selection and how they've planned the screen play - one word - PERFECT!
3. Watch in 1.5x for a better suspense + thrills + horror experience.
4. Story is unique and is portrayed very well, its just that.... it doesn't make you feel good in anyway!
5. Maybe their message is that nothing is good on the other side so be happy and healthy while you're alive.. but you will overlook that message because of how good they've portrayed the depressing part!
**This is also why I wouldn't recommend anyone who is already feeling low to watch this... This will only make it worse as its too dense and too dark!**

well... that was depressing lmao
the first half is full of intrigue with the narrative told in a slow, suspenseful manner. with the amount of characters this got, it can get confusing at the beginning but they successfully made it engaging for me and mysterious, you want to know what's gonna happen next. and what happens next is an emotional exploration of life and death. it is sad and depressing honestly but it's also thought-provoking. i think there are enough media out there that imagine what's "afterlife" gonna be and this didn't do anything that mindblowing but it did enough to make me emotionally move. the supernatural intrigue definitely helped. literally everyone gave such incredible and compelling performances. but i might give an extra star to mother lee jungeun for making me cry. she's so good.Was this review helpful to you?
