“Puts the ‘grim' in Grimm.” - Variety
After a distracted Eun-Soo plows his car into the forest, the helping hand of a small girl guiding him to the warmth of the House of Happy Children seems like a godsend. But as the warmth turns to chill, Eun-Soo discovers the dark secret of the children of the house and the fate of the adults who come their way.
The Brothers Grimm fairytale gets a 21st century Korean makeover - with the creepiness, horror and supernatural elements turned up to the max.
