The series, adapted for the screen by Kang Full, the creator of Moving, is directed by Kim Hiewon. 
Light Shop, an adaptation of Kang Full's popular webtoon, unfolds the stories of a diverse group of strangers, each grappling with traumatic events from their past. As they navigate their daily lives, an enigmatic pull leads each individual to a peculiar light shop situated at the end of a shadowy alley. Watched over by a vigilant shopkeeper, this mysterious place holds the potential to unlock the secrets of the strangers' pasts, presents, and futures. Within its confines, the dead might find a path back to the world of the living, while the living may not come out unscathed.
