Decider, a review specialist published by the New York Post, noted, “It features Kang Full’s unique storytelling style and intriguing settings.” Brazilian media IGN commented, “The scenes where mysterious people encounter each other with intense music are impressive,” and added, “The depiction of those between life and death was well done.”
Preview stills of episode 8 were also released that day, featuring characters standing on the boundary between life and death: Ji-young (played by Kim Seol-hyun) and Hyun-min (played by Eom Tae-goo) holding hands with tears in their eyes, Yoo-hee (played by Lee Jung-eun) and Hyun-joo (played by Shin Eun-soo) comforting each other in a tight embrace, and Sun-hae (played by Kim Min-ha) and Hye-won (played by Kim Seon-hwa) shedding long-held tears as they face each other, along with Seung-won (played by Park Hyuk-kwon) carrying Ji-woong (played by Kim Ki-hae) while searching for a path.
