This genre bending show is surely gonna blow your wig away!

The starting can be a little misleading, mysterious and confusing but it all makes sense as you continue watching. And the patience is absolutely worth it! Never once did I zone of the show or felt bored. It's the kind that captives you so well and that's what I love the most about any show! It's got a little bit of everything- horror, drama, mystery, suspense, melo. And everything blends in just perfectly. Also the performances by all actors and the cinematography is truly remarkable.

Very unique, very well written. Surely needs a sequel. Looking forward to it!

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.

At first, I was scared. Then I was intrigued. By the end, I was bawling my eyes out.

This show masterfully weaves a complex concept into multiple interconnected stories without ever losing its sense of mystery or momentum. It's truly a miracle that such an ambitious project didn't collapse under its own weight, and it's even more incredible that it turned out this good.

What really sets this show apart is how much it respects its audience. Instead of spoon-feeding you, it strikes a perfect balance of depth and subtlety to keep you engaged. It demands your full attention, rewarding you with secrets revealed at just the right moments.

The acting is phenomenal, as expected from the Koreans. Even minor characters with limited screen time deliver performances more convincing than many leads from other productions. Korean actors continue to set the gold standard for acting.

The only thing I find a little lacking is the world-building. Too little is told about the realm and the role of the "guardian", making him seem more like an accessory rather than someone important. Here's hoping season 2 dives deeper into these aspects.

Overall, this is a standout series that takes risks and lands every emotional and narrative punch. I can't wait for the next season.

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.
