Most notably, the tagline “Curious about the last lifeline for an extraordinary life turnaround?” stirs intense curiosity. It prompts viewers to wonder what it truly takes to become a building owner in Korea and what challenges await. As a dark basement door opens, hinting at impending peril, anticipation for the premiere builds.
