From my perspective it is. I read the manga before I watched the show and it didn't feel like grooming to me then. But when I watched the adaptation, it felt creepy.

sibling love. That's why you never see them sleep in the same bed. The most affection he shows her is smoothing her head and holding her cheeks which is sibling affection I think (that's what I do with my little sister)

You're right, my bad. I've changed it now.

Exactly! You could describe all the teen main characters in a few lines.
Seah - track athlete gf with trauma
Geonwoo - track athlete bf (we get an 'overcoming his fear' arc with geonwoo but that's it)
Hajoon - smart guy who has a crush on Seah
Hyeonwook - otaku with strict parents
Nari - rich girl who has a crush on Geonwoo.

Out of these characters, I think Nari was the most ambiguous since her friendship with Seah kinda mirrored the friendship between Kwon Si Won and Do Hye Rung.

Both Nari and Kwon Si Won were the same - they are very self-centred and when things go wrong, they think about how unfair it is that it happenned to them.

I think this means that Nari has taken over Kwon Si Won and is controlling the app so that the curse carries on. Remember - only Nari knows the full story between Si won and Do Hye Rung because she was possessed and because Si won's former friends told her. That's probably how Nari knows Si won's birthdate and which is why she made that birtdate the password to her phone.

I think Gi Tae only rejected Do Hye Rung that harshly because he was told to by Si-won. He had to do it or else he wouldn't be credited in making the app and thus he wouldn't be able to go to uni.

Even though Do Hye Rung's wish was for everyone to die, the app couldn't grant that wish because the app didn't have that wish-granting ability at the time. I believe the app only had the wish-granting ability through Kwon Si Won's curse (which is why Kwon Si won's phone was the maehyung not Do Hye Rung's). The reason why only Kwon Si won and Han Gitae died is because Do Hye Rung made the DDelomis of them to kill them (as she was taught to by Kwon Si Won's mother). Do Hye Rung didn't make Ddelomi's of Dongjae and Heejin because they didn't directly bully her like Kwon Si Won and Han Gi Tae did.

Do Hye Rung - that poor sweet girl. Even when her secret was revealed, she never revealed Kwon Si Won's secret.

I can't even blame Seha and Geonwoo because I was confused as well over who was real and who was the spirit.

I've got to say - I think I disagree with this opinion. I don't believe anyone is born with a darkness within them. Kwon Si Won was an intelligent genius with a lot of pride. Her family background as a daughter of an alcholic quack shaman who killed her husband was a source of humiliation. This humiliation fed into her insecurity over her personal identity. This is why Kwon Si Won avoids everything to do with shamanism.

Her mother knew Kwon Si Won did not like shamanism. However, since that girl is her daughter she still expressed her love through the best way she could - shamanism. That's why even though Kwon Si Won neglected her, the mother did everything to save her daughter at the risk of her own life.

Kwon Si Won's relationship with Do Hye Rung is complicated - I do believe there was a genuine friendship between them (the photos they took, sleeping on the same bed). That genuine friendship is because Do Hye Rung knew everything about Kwon Si Won. However, this is a double-edged sword;Since Do Hye Rung knew everything about it, it made Kwon Si won paranoid that Do Hye Rung will reveal it which feeds into Kwon Si won's insecurity over her identity.

Slapping Do Hye Rung after finding the talisman in her bag was an instanteous action due to her paranoia and insecurity. The revenge after that meant the complete end of their friendship and rise of hatred instead.

It is

Perhaps its to show the parallels between Siwon and Nari? Nari could have just randomly put that as her password and it coincidentally was also the day Siwon was born.

It's the date Siwon was born on, right? Since Siwon vengeful spirit is gone, perhaps its Nari taking over the app?

Siwon's wish wasn't for her mother to die, I thought it was for the app to repeat itself, thus creating the curse? Also, the app only had its wish-fufilling abilities through the curse which was after Hye Ryeong's wish to kill all of them.

People say it's an open ending and we don't know what happens to Lim Nari - for me, the epilogue explains that Lim Nari died in Kwon Si won's school setting, became a vengeful spirit like Kwon Siwon and is controlling the app which is how she got the guy to find her phone.

yess

In case no one realised like me, there is an epilogue at the end of ep 8 so watch that and the ending would make more sense.

It's an open ending - she might've died in Kwon Si Won's school setting or she is still alive but has become a vengeful spirit like Kwon Si Won and is trying to communicate through the brother-in -law's red eye. Dong Jae did say that Nari and Kwon Si Won were very similar people (which is also shown through their nervous habit of biting their fingertips). Having watched the epilogue at the end of ep 8 - I am now 75% sure that Nari has become a vengeful spirit and is cotrolling the game now after Kwon Si Won.

I was actually quite surprised by their level of acting, seeing how they are all new-comers. I was quite impressed. If their acting was not good, I feel like the show would have been way worse.
