The opening sequence is enigmatic. We’re on a cold-looking beach with Diana (Grace Glowicki), a young woman with obvious injuries in a wheelchair.

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Joo Hyun-young, Jeon Bae-soo, Choi Bo-min Writer: Jo Ba-reun Director: Tak Se-woong Distributor: Well Go USA Entertainment Release Date: February 17, 2026 (digital) GHOST TRAIN could be described as an anthology, but since the framing device is also the primary narrative, it’s more like a horror story with a number of little side excursions. Most of GHOST TRAIN is set in and around the (fictional) Gwanglim subway station in Seoul, Korea. We learn that 7.3 million people take the subway every day in Korea, but Gwanglim station has by far the highest rate of rider disappearances. […]Read On »
