And Lee Sun Bin also made me unable to take my eyes off her because of her "undead corner" visual as well as the lovely coordination between the two main characters.


    In addition, praise should be given to the sound production team for the film. In each detail, different scenes, the film will be changed to another tune that is extremely suitable for its plot. Overall, the film has been very good at building sound, especially since this is also an action movie project. Finally, there are the action scenes of the movie. Because inherent in the action genre, the film has a lot of scenes that are fights, sword fights, or gun battles. The movie scenes are made with a delicate scene that makes the audience feel both extremely attractive and extremely interesting.
