Esraa Aug 14 2025 11:47 pm The plot was good y'all it very ressembles to unlocked and door lock if you've watched them so it was pretty good and real, i loved it and hyesun unnie i love you, you always do well

Brian V Mar 25 2025 2:02 am Good movie, typical thriller where the main character makes poor decisions causing bad things to happen. If she didn't make those bad decisions, there's no movie, lol.

I can't believe I knew all five main characters, as well as the bad guy, from others shows. It has a few jump points, and there are some, oh I suspected that, moments too.

reiko Nov 11 2024 12:48 am !!!!! SPOILERS !!!!!

This is one of my fears. Someone stealing my identity to commit fraud and other crimes or steal my personal information to invade my privacy and my life. I dont know how to feel about the FL. I like the actor, Shin Hye-sun, she's excellent, but the character is kinda stupid. If you've confirmed an evil stalker has access to your home, why do you keep staying there alone? And why, when the evil stranger demanded that you send him money so he'd stop, would you believe him? Really? What's your assurance that he's trustworthy? Like fr why would he stop when he's having fun tormenting you and feeling powerful for controlling your life?? Save that money up instead for getting a new apateu apateu sooner.

The homicide detectives are no help at all, the 2 fraud detectives are the ones doing their best even though it's no longer their department. At first it seemed like they were going to be slow to act, but they actually got into the case rather quickly. Nice to see Kang Taeho here though he had little screen time. I was worried they're gonna force a romance between him and FL. Glad they didnt because that would've been so out of place in this kind of movie.

The actor who played the serial killer-stalker did a good job. I've seen him in many projects and he's a good character actor. I hate his character though, which is how we're supposed to feel i guess. He reminds me of those stupid feminist-haters in Korea, who falsely think feminists are man-haters. So dumb to grasp the idea of respecting women as an equal human being. They think refusing to be oppressed means hating men, like wtf kind of thought process is that?! stupid. In any case, turns out he's an easily butt-hurt loser who can't take a bad review especially from women. Glad he died because such people cannot be rehabilitated by prison time. He seems to be the sort that when released, he will hunt down the people who put him in jail.

Timing Aug 02 2024 2:41 am Literally the dumbest movie ever. There's a reason why this didn't do well in korean cinemas. I've never seen a main character with such little common sense

Hyesun aahhh Apr 17 2024 10:30 pm I love the movie <3 People hating to the plot and the police. Well this is the reality folks, slow investigation from small crimes, this is the reality. And, tbh, this is what will make us react in real life. If you think they lack of common sense, then dont watch movies if you want it done right away, thriller movies is based on critical thinking and mystery, if you want it done right away, just watch sweet kdramas, you already know the ending lol As a thriller movie lover, All in all, this movie will give you goosebumps, no boring scene. Every second you'll be in the edge of your seat. Kudos and peace \m/

K-fan Mar 13 2024 8:47 pm The movie would have been better… but it’s missing a lot of or some common sense. I like Shin Hae Sun though but the character she portrayed was just not smart.

Mako Mar 02 2024 5:50 am The police are just so stupid

Matrick Jan 07 2024 2:15 am @Zila, calm down sis. Fix your grammar and spelling before hating anything in public.

Zila Dec 13 2023 9:04 am In reality if you in this situation.. you will be alone? No!!! Until the culprit capture you scared to live alone.. I hate stupid skrip

KST Dec 05 2023 11:40 am I watched this because of Shin hye sun. This film has the curiosity but the plot is not that much impressive. But this film is not bad.

typing Oct 22 2023 2:07 am I just love this movie!

Ji Oct 18 2023 1:53 am The same plot as many other movies in the same group, but it's still entertaining as well as educative. It raises awareness of internet scam. Be careful out there, people And as usual, a well done performance by Shin Hyesun and Kim Sungkyun ?

Reply to idk Oct 10 2023 8:30 pm This isn't a drama. This is a movie.

Unlocked is also a movie.

And they have completely different plots.

Idk Sep 12 2023 4:52 am I knew this was going to be my fav next fav kdrama because I've have loved the kdrama called unlocked if you hadn't wacthed it yet go wacth it , it is just like this kdrama and I think the same plot

m Aug 30 2023 7:36 am looks so exciting i cant wait to watch this

nin Aug 25 2023 5:15 am i love her sm, i saw her in my 19th life for the first time and fell in love

Tin Aug 22 2023 4:48 am This movie is surely a hit. I just love that Shin Haesun is the lead of this thriller movie. All the best on the 30th of August. Fighting!
