Beloved? In love?

When the movie started, I thought it was just an ordinary love story between a resentful female ghost and a good young man trying to find the cause of her death. In the middle of the film, I found out that the female ghost and the male protagonist have various connections. Maybe there is something that made the female ghost find him. I thought it was probably a story of revenge. At the end, I found out that it was a story that couldn't let go of love.

Only then did I understand that the words of the magazine president in the middle of the film, "Sometimes, the dead will reluctantly leave their loved ones." It turned out that it was the dead girl who couldn't forget the one he loved before her death.

How deep a relationship does she need to be able to see him as her true love after going through those things again, this is probably the most scumbag horror movie I've ever seen with a male protagonist. Cowardly, timid and irresponsible, afraid of being isolated by friends and concealing their feelings, seeing his girlfriend being gang-raped, he can still raise the camera, and when someone breaks into the road, he says "go away" to his new girlfriend. Really scum. How could such a man make her soul refuse to leave after she died.

This female ghost's love is both true love and obsessive love. That's why he kept hugging his neck and refused to leave after he died, just like the lingering every night.
