Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum. This is the Korean horror film that I’ve been waiting for the most! It’s only shown in bioskop with a trailer that’s super scary but makes me personally want to watch it. The problem of running away from the studio in the middle of the storyline a secondary matter; the important thing that at least I have had the chance to watch a Korean horror film, which said to the scariest film in the country of ginseng.
Jung Bum Shik was really able to make all who watched this film hold their breath due to the horror he created. He purposely made this film with footage from the POV (point of view) of the characters, making everything seem more alive before our eyes. Seriously, if you haven’t watched this film, watch it immediately!
