English The film is too long for today's viewer to easily handle and enjoy. The problem also lies in the possibly unnecessarily complicated storytelling, although it certainly adds charm to the film. As a variation on "The Phantom of the Opera," it's definitely interesting and shows how Asians can interpret a well-known story in their own way, resulting in a completely original outcome. In this case, that is the case. It's just that the horror atmosphere is simply missing in many places. ()
