Synopsis

When young, we might try witchcraft out of curiosity to make our wishes come true, even if it’s scary. For such curiosity, Joohee, who is unable to find hope in reality, pays the price, as well as her friends who she neglects. The film is some of director Heo Jung’s brilliant early work, which established his own horror style with realistic material. (Martin LEE)
