Critical response

Sangmin Sung of IGN Korea praised the animation, particularly the use of colors, which he felt made the scenery realistic and movement fluid. He also liked how the animation helps to set the mood of the story, pointing out its use of darker colors and increased frame rate during tense scenes. However, he felt the voice acting was inconsistent between the different lead actors, though he offered praise to the soundtrack. He also felt that the transitions between different scenes were sometimes rushed. Lee Ja-yeon of Cine21 liked the way the narrative progressed throughout the film. Lee also liked the soundtrack. Kazuki Sunama, an anime producer at CoMix Wave Films who worked on Your Name and Suzume, liked the depiction of Korean landscapes and culture and felt the animation was well done. Sunama described it as "the most entertaining Korean animated film that I have seen in the past 20 years".

Jeong Yu-jin of News1 described the film as part of an "animated film boom" in South Korea in 2025, along with ' and KPop Demon Hunters.
