The CinePearl Take
Director Lee Hyun‑woo crafts a relentless, claustrophobic rhythm that never lets the tension slacken. The breakout performance by newcomer Kim Jae‑yeol as the enigmatic “Dead Man” anchors the film with a chilling, word‑sparse intensity. While the plot occasionally meanders through sub‑plots, the thematic focus on mortality and urban alienation remains razor‑sharp, leaving a lingering echo long after the credits roll.
