Wall to Wall | Streaming July 18, 2025 on Netflix

“Wall to Wall” is the latest addition to Korea’s growing list of internationally acclaimed thrillers, and it arrives on Netflix with eerie silence and unsettling suspense. Directed by Kim Tae-joon and Sharon S. Park, and written by Kim Tae-joon, this psychological thriller takes viewers into the claustrophobic world of urban living—where walls have ears, and sometimes, secrets claw their way out.

Plot Overview

Woo Seong (played by Kang Ha-neul) is an ordinary man who finally achieves a major milestone in life—he buys his dream apartment. But the excitement of moving in quickly turns to unease. The walls that once represented stability and comfort now close in with growing dread.

Disturbing noises seep through the night, neighbors are far from friendly, and a constant sense of being watched unsettles him. As Woo Seong tries to unravel the strange occurrences within the building, he uncovers a web of secrets that might be tied to his own past. What begins as minor disturbances soon escalate into a full-blown psychological breakdown.

Is it the apartment? The neighbors? Or Woo Seong himself?
