REIGNITE

"Some doors are locked for a reason. Some memories should never be reopened."

Dr. Hyu expected nothing more than a quiet vacation with old friends at the secluded mountain villa of renowned surgeon Kim Taehyung. Hidden deep within an endless forest, the estate is breathtaking, isolated... and strangely impossible to understand.

The blueprints don't match the building.

A second floor exists-but no staircase leads to it.

Something moves through the woods at night.

And beneath the scent of rain lingers another smell Hyu knows all too well.

As the group begins uncovering impossible secrets, trust slowly turns into suspicion. Every room hides another lie, every answer creates new questions, and everyone seems to be protecting something they're desperate to keep buried.

The villa isn't just hiding its past.
It's waiting for someone to uncover it.

Because some people came here to relax.

Others came here for reasons they can't even remember.

And someone has been waiting... for far longer than any of them realize.

When the truth finally surfaces, there will be nothing left to reignite but the ashes.
