Where do light particles go? If a person is in a dark room, and they open a curtain, light illuminates the room from outside. But then, when the curtain is closed, the room is dark again, and the light is no longer there. Where did it go?
I probably have a flawed understanding of how light particles work.

Light acts like a particle (and a wave) but light doesn’t actually exist. Photons are what is known as a virtual particle, and is used to model the behavior of the transmission of the “information” in electromagnetic interactions. light particles don’t go anywhere when the light is turned off because they were never there in the first place
