Now he steps into the fresh character of No Woo-sung, a property owner based in Seoul. The film follows Woo-sung as he invests his entire fortune into his ideal home.

Yet circumstances quickly deteriorate as viewers are plunged into a "nightmare". The cast also includes Yeom Hye-ran, Seo Hyun-woo, Jeon Jin-oh and Kim Hyun-jeong, reports Wales Online.

Netflix's official description states: "A man who poured his life savings into a new apartment discovers its walls are full of disturbing noises, hostile neighbours and unsettling secrets."

Launching on July 18, the original Korean title translates to 84 Square Meter, referencing the most typical apartment size across South Korea. Within the preview clip, Woo-sung brims with optimism, though his joy proves fleeting.

Pledging to deliver a "dark and suspenseful" experience, Netflix hints: "His happiness is short-lived as strange noises begin echoing through the apartment complex each night, plunging him into distress."

And the reviews are already pouring in. One viewer was enthralled, sharing: "Wall to Wall completely captivated me. I loved how the film embraced silence, space, and subtle emotion. It's a quiet yet powerful story that explores loneliness, human connection, and the meaning of comfort within confined spaces."

Another was equally impressed, remarking: "This movie was enjoyable from the beginning to the end, I don't think there were ANY boring parts. It definitely had thriller/creepy vibes (reminded me of Strangers From Hell 2019).

"The main character always kept you on your toes about every decision he made."

A third chimed in with high praise: "Love this movie...it's intense! The concept and how the story flows... kudos to all of the actors who played on this film... a very top notch acting, especially the main casts. . the man with the tattoo.. i adore him... he's good at acting... a rollercoaster of emotions."
