All that wailing and screaming was kind of unbearable

(2011) White: Melody of the Curse/ Hwa-i-teu: Jeo-woo-eui mel-lo-di (In South Korean with English subtitles) HORROR

Written and directed by Gok Kim and Sun Kim with a set up that centers on four members of the new pop sensation, "Pink Dolls" with Jenny (Jin Se-Yeon) as the lead vocalist; A Rang (Choi Ah-ra) labelled as the youngest member; Sin-ji (Maydoni) is the dance and rap and Eun-joo (Eun-jeong Ham) as the team leader and backup dancer. Competing with a rival group "Pure", the manager, (Kim ki-bang) manages to secure them to a much better recording facility. Except that it had an unfortunate history that costed the lives or either two or three people. And when Eun-joo was chekcing around the dancing area, she stumbled onto many video cassettes, but the only one she decided to grab and watch is the one that says "White". And upon watching with the group's manager, because the song itself was never heard by the general public, the manager decided to use it since the group's first album was a total dud. And it is not long before strange happenings happen once a white wig is put on, while each artist were attempting to sing the song itself.

Some of the problems I have is that there is a lack of security, police and other obvious measures, that comes with being a successful pop singer. We're never shown any of the parents or an autopsy being conducted to any of the victims. And I find out odd, that the one lady was the only person who was affected by the chaos that happened at the end when many fans were rushing out. It is scenarios like that makes this film less believable.
