Social media comments note that numerous scenes are too dark to see.
Reddit users deem the lighting "awful." One spectator said some images are "so dark that it is difficult to discern the events taking place." 
So he drew this himself because Director Choe is someone who can't really focus on something easily? and if not he can't think clearly?
