The movie starts an unsettling ritual deep in the woods, an old woman’s voice slicing through the silence: “Would you like to call back the dead?”

The next scene is a volleyball tournament. Bussaba’s team is on fire until Yah stumbles, costing them the winning point. The loss is devastating, but the real cruelty comes later. In the locker room, Hong overhears Bussaba berating Yah and even extorting money from her. When Bussaba finally storms off, Hong quietly frees Yah, who has been cruelly tied up under a running shower.

The next day, Yah calls in sick. Bussaba, unhappy with the news, lashes out at Hong, shoving her into a locker. But before things escalate, the teacher steps in with an announcement: a new transfer student. Enter Jindahra, better known as Jin, a volleyball prodigy from another district.

And just like that, Bussaba feels her throne shake.

Pretty, popular, and adored by teachers, Bussaba ruled her clique with an iron fist wrapped in a sugar-coated smile. But Jin? She wasn’t one to bow down. Independent, strong-willed, and effortlessly magnetic, Jin became Bussaba’s newest target.

Fuel is added to the fire when Gunn, Bussaba’s boyfriend, starts noticing Jin. His subtle gestures of kindness toward Jin send Bussaba spiraling into a dangerous rage. Her bullying turns darker, sharper until the unimaginable happens.

Bussaba is found hanging from the basketball hoop in the school gym. A CCTV clip paints it as suicide, the official story claiming she couldn’t bear losing her top spot or her boyfriend. The school reels in shock. Even her loyal clique is left shaken.

But the nightmare is only beginning.

At Bussaba’s wake, whispers turn into screams when her coffin topples, throwing her body to the floor. Simultaneously, at the very court where she died, someone performs a ritual, calling her spirit back from the beyond.

And it worked.

Bussaba’s ghost is back, hungrier and angrier than ever. Jin and her friends now face a chilling countdown: three days to uncover who dared summon her spirit and why.

Because Bussaba isn’t done. Not by a long shot. And it seems that Bussaba is after them.

Who summoned Bussaba’s spirit and why? Will Jin and her friends able to banish Bussaba back to the grave before she has claimed all their lives? 

MY REVIEW

What I Like:  

• The twist at the end - oh wow! 
• You'll sense a bit of Final Destination vibe in the movie too. 
• There's some funny moments too.
• The theme resonates with a lot nowadays - so I hope you'll never bully or belittle anyone as we will never know what our words or actions might affect other people's lives or future. 

What I Don't Like:

• The makeup was a bit old-school. 

Will I Watch It Again: Yes, I would 

Overall: 4.4/ 5.0
