About The Child Who Would Not Come
So-Ah works as a teacher at a local school. She was curious about Boo Young-Suk, a student with a sinister aura who is always present on the attendance list but no one calls him by name. The more she tries to get Boo Young-Suk back to school, strange things begin to happen at school.
Directed by Yoo Young-seon, The Child Who Would Not Come leans on a strong ensemble — Kim So-hye, Jung Yoon-suk, Lee Gyu-hyeon — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2021.
