I watched this mainly because Tae Goo was in it. I love his acting . No spoilers, but the direction was on point, the pacing was seamless, and the cast delivered incredible performances. It was a bit scary at times :0 but in the best way. Honestly, I need more! They need to hurry with Season 2 because there's still so much of the story left to uncover. Impatiently waiting!

At times, it's genuinely scary, but never overdone. Koreans truly know how to craft thrillers with elegance and depth.

I really hope they announce a Season 2 soon because there's so much left to explore. This is one of those shows that stays with you long after it ends. It's clever, thrilling, and packed with moments that leave you on the edge of your seat. If you love suspenseful, well-crafted stories, you won't want to miss this!

I went in watching this not knowing anything and almost stopped within the first few episodes because they were creeping me out and I'm not a fan of horror. However, I'm so glad I didn't let my fear get the best of me because this ended up being so good, and I can't remember the last time I cried this much watching a tv show. The mother-daughter duo, lesbian couple and father-daughter pair's stories and endings had me in tears. Excellent storytelling supported by amazing actors. The heterosexual couple's story left a deep impression on me as well because it's so tragic and unfair, and their ending was kind of shocking to me.

Apart from that, it was clear that the writers were hinting at a 2nd season because there were still a few loose ends and unanswered questions, mostly to do with the detective. Or I might be wrong, who knows.

Edit to add: okay so apparently Timing and Moving are connected to Light Shop? I don't know what Timing is but I've watched Moving and enjoyed it a lot.

I know that this show is based on a very popular webtoon and the show creator is the same person who wrote and produced the show "Moving." There is no need to compare the show to the webtoon or another show (Moving). So, judging the show on its own merits, I have some mixed feelings.

To be honest, I had a real difficult time finishing the first three episodes. While the basic premise was quite interesting, the show left the audience in the dark (pun intended) for much of the time, just dropping few hints here and there. It was somewhat frustrating at time, but then, I watched Ep. 4. The reveal in Ep. 4 hit me like a ton of bricks and shed a light on what was happening in Ep 1-3. The show still has much more to explain and carry the main story forward. However, Ep. 4 pretty much changed my mind from giving this show a 3-star rating to an 8-star rating. At the end of the season, perhaps my score will increase or decrease.

For anyone who is not sure about giving this show a chance, watch at least up to Ep. 4. If you decide that it's not your cup of tea at that point, then I doubt you will enjoy the rest of the show.

It is Dark, Suspensful and Well-crafted drama. This drama oozes quality. From its storyline, acting, cinematography ,you name it ,it delivers perfectly. The show is slow burning, not relying heavily on jump scares but instead building tension through atmosphere, sound, and visuals. It's clever, thrilling, and packed with moments that leave you on the edge of your seat. Every episode keep u asking questions until the very end where everything come together and make sense.

If you have a mind for mystery with a penchant for suspense and horror, Light Shop is a great watch for you. For the next four episodes, we're counting on the complex mind of Kang Full to follow through on needed answers that will give the mystery a perfect ending.

A Very very well-done drama. 10/10.

It's remarkable to see a concept so unique yet relating being presented in such a flawless and captivating way. The tone shift after the first two episodes is the testimony of how good this series is and how creatively it takes the journey and motivation of the characters for the rest of the episodes. There is no issue ot pacing at all and I think 8 episodes are just perfect to tell the story. No doubt that this is from the same creator/producer who made Moving. The depth in each and every characters emotions and back stories are so well interconnected that it satisfies you by the end. Highly recommended.
