Dec 12, 2023

TVING has unveiled a new highlight teaser for its upcoming drama “Death’s Game”!

Based on the webtoon of the same name, “Death’s Game” tells the story of a man who gets more than one second chance at life after facing death. Park So Dam will play the role of Death, who sentences a man named Choi Yi Jae (Seo In Guk) to 12 cycles of life and death.

In addition to Seo In Guk and Park So Dam, the drama’s star-studded cast includes Kim Ji Hoon, Super Junior’s Choi Siwon, Sung Hoon, Kim Kang Hoon, Jang Seung Jo, Lee Jae Wook, Lee Do Hyun, Go Yoon Jung, Kim Jae Wook, Oh Jung Se, and more.

Warning: mention of attempted suicide.

The teaser begins by announcing, “This is the story of a man who kept experiencing multiple deaths over and over.” A visibly miserable Choi Yi Jae goes on to reveal, “I wanted to die a clean death.”

However, Choi Yi Jae’s attempt at taking his own life insults Death, who has an unusual punishment in store for him. She pronounces, “Choi Yi Jae, from now on, you will die 12 times. And no matter what body you wake up in, you will die no matter what.” When Choi Yi Jae protests, Death laughs in his face.

But just when his plight seems entirely hopeless, Death offers him one way out—the chance to survive if he manages to change his fate. “Depending on your efforts, you might be able to find a different version of your ending,” she says.

The video goes on to offer sneak peeks of the various genres in store, from action to noir to romance. Death then asks, “Do you still think dying is the end? This is only the beginning.” Burning with determination, Choi Yi Jae declares, “I’ll show you that I can win.” Later, when he is in the body of prisoner Jo Tae Sang (Lee Jae Wook), he says, “What I learned while being trapped inside here is how to survive.”

The teaser ends with Choi Yi Jae exclaiming in excitement, “I just avoided death!”

Part 1 of “Death’s Game” will premiere on December 15, while Part 2 will be released on January 5. Check out the new highlight teaser below!
