Audience comments:

- Deservedly considered the best Korean horror film since The Wailing to date.

- I get goosebumps constantly when I watch movies. Not only horror and mystery, but this is also a movie with a deep message.

- I bet it will be very difficult for any Korean film to surpass this one this year. Really excellent.

- The commendable point is that the film maintains its pace, mysterious atmosphere and tension from beginning to end. The cast really has no points of criticism.

- I believe that this film will open a new direction for Korean mysterious and spiritual works.

- The only pity is that the film is a bit long, I wish it had been more compact.
