A supernatural horror-mystery where a traumatized security guard confronts both literal and psychological reflections of guilt and death within a haunted department store.

Woo Yeong-min retired from the police force after trying to save his partner and causing his death. After a series of mysterious deaths in the shopping mall in which his uncle has allowed him to work as a security guard prior to its reopening, he must face both his own fear of mirrors and the mystery surrounding the fire that closed down the mall.
