the prompt

30-second photorealistic live-action Japanese couch horror, 16:9. A Japanese woman in her mid-20s sits comfortably on a slightly messy 1LDK apartment couch at night, wearing a cream knit sweater, grey blanket, and headphones around her neck. Her face, hair, outfit, body proportions, and identity remain perfectly consistent throughout. Her boyfriend films casually from beside her on a phone; he is never visible—only his natural off-screen voice is heard. Cozy warm string lights contrast with the cold blue TV glow. From 0:00–0:13, she watches a horror movie, gradually becoming uneasy as the camera approaches the TV. At 0:13–0:23, show the physical TV directly with all four black bezel edges continuously visible. Inside the screen is a dark old Japanese wooden hallway where a pale ghost with wet black hair slowly appears, then suddenly lunges toward the movie camera at 0:21. The ghost must remain completely inside the TV and never enter the living room. At 0:23, hard cut to the woman flinching, grabbing the cushion, then nervously laughing. End with her asking her boyfriend to stop filming and sit beside her, followed by one tiny unexplained movement inside the TV. Natural Japanese dialogue with accurate lip-sync, authentic spontaneous reactions, realistic skin pores, hair and fabric physics, handheld phone movement, diegetic apartment audio, no cinematic camera work, no CGI-looking effects, no logos or watermarks. Subtitles: Japanese + natural English translation only during spoken dialogue.
