The premise

Horror Vault's take
When a mysterious app surfaces among a group of Korean high schoolers promising to grant their deepest wishes, the thrill quickly turns to terror as a sinister countdown begins. Rooted in shamanic lore, the series weaves ancient supernatural forces into a chillingly modern premise. The teens must race to untangle themselves from a deadly chain before time runs out — but breaking free may demand a price of its own.
