The characters’ intense gazes hint at the range of backgrounds and secrets each brings to the “Shop of Light.” From Ju Ji-hoon, who plays “Wonyoung,” the shopkeeper observing the visitors, to Park Bo-young as “Young-ji,” a nurse who can see those on the boundary between life and death, each character holds a unique connection to the shop’s supernatural world.
