The premise

Seok-tae runs away with a huge diamond of his gang and comes to Sisily, a peaceful village. Yang-e runs after him to get the diamond back and finds Seok-tae's trail in Sisily. But all the town people lie about everything. These people turn out to be scarier than a ghost!

Horror Vault's take

A small-time crook on the run from his gang takes refuge in a seemingly idyllic Korean village, only to discover that the locals are hiding far more than he bargained for. When a determined pursuer arrives looking to reclaim a stolen diamond, both find themselves entangled in the village's bizarre web of lies and superstitions. With whispers of a ghost haunting the area, it becomes increasingly unclear whether the living or the dead pose the greater threat. This Korean comedy-horror blends rural oddness with slapstick energy for a genre-bending romp.
