Rosa, a lonely Korean woman living in Australia, brings home an ordinary object – only to discover it’s possessed by a ravenous goblin. As her hoarding spirals, the creature’s grip tightens, blurring the line between comfort and danger.

This clip from the third episode of the horror anthology dives into the emotional turbulence of migration, capturing the isolation of those caught between cultures. Migration promises opportunity for younger generations, yet can leave older migrants disconnected as their children adapt to a new society. Rosa’s experience lays bare this tension, amplified by Clara Kim’s haunting performance and Andrew Undi Lee’s use of horror to embody the unseen burdens so many carry.

Directed by Lee, the Friend or Foe episode of Night Bloomers fuses folklore, psychological horror and cultural insight to craft a uniquely Korean-Australian tale. It draws on traditional storytelling while offering a sharp, contemporary look at identity, belonging and the memories that refuse to stay buried.
