00:00Have you heard of the pop-up ad that you can't escape from?
00:02One night, a man named Takai was working his night shift at a remote store in Japan.
00:07As he stocked shelves, two high school boys entered.
00:10They spoke about a classmate obsessed with an online puzzle known as the Red Room.
00:14This classmate had locked himself away, and his parents found him dead in his room, covered in blood.
00:20Intrigued, Takai called his friend, asking him about the puzzle.
00:23Hours passed without a response.
00:25Unable to shake the mystery, Takai searched the internet, finding chilling articles about the Red Room and recent deaths, including that boy the teenagers mentioned.
00:33Suddenly, a pop-up appeared on his computer screen.
00:35Do you like the Red Room?
00:37He tried to close it, but the message kept reappearing.
00:39It split apart, revealing a list of names, including to his horror, his friend's name.
00:44Panicking, Takai tried calling him, but there was no answer.
00:47The door slammed shut, trapping him inside.
00:49The screen spoke again.
00:51Do you like the Red Room?
00:52Takai smiled, his eyes locking onto the box cutter.
