Apperication for anthology
I have a soft spot for a horror anthologies, and this is an ok series. Depending on what you like it's got some interesting episodes, but they're short enough that you don't really get bored. Personally liked the last story the best, it was better directed and nailed the visual horror it was going for. The others are somewhat forgettable but centred around everyday horror. It reminded me of the Fear Itself horror anthology, except half-hour episodes.If you appreciate the genre, for sure give it a watch won't eat up much of your time.

Weirdly transphobic
The first episode is the strongest being very atmospheric with nice cinematography and color grading that isn't a lazy gray tone that the other episodes do. The isolation and growing fear is very palpable and the vibes is a mix of psychological and supernatural. It reminds me of a Junji Ito story that also had to do with peeping eyes and being spied on.The final episode is straight up Backrooms: Korea with the newbie security guard getting lost in ASync and everything. That other security guy working there didn't try very hard to warn her, though she most definitely wouldn't have believed him anyways. Poor newbie. Kdramas don't do backdoor pilots, but this certainly looks like a backdoor pilot of a kdrama if such a thing existed lol.
The home shopping story and the convenience store stories were about not taking weird jobs no matter how much money is offered. Besides that as a common theme, multiple times the episode monster is a guy wearing women's clothes and make up. That transphobia is really outdated and really telling of the prejudice from the production.
