Synopsis
"Dead-End Job" is a mystery-horror fantasy series that unfolds as Hyeok-joon comes across a strange employment agency offering "perfect" part-time jobs that pay 50 times the usual hourly wage - only to be thrown into a terrifying, hellish workplace with horrors he could've never imagined. Director Kim Da-min, who wrote the Netflix series "A Killer Paradox" and directed the festival-acclaimed film "FAQ", takes the helm, while director Han Jun-hee, writer and director of "D.P" and "Coin Locker Girl", and creator of "Weak Hero Class 1", brings his expertise as executive producer to shape a truly unique horror experience. Lee Jae-wook ("Dear Hongrang", "Alchemy of Souls") plays Hyeok-joon, the protagonist who jumps at the chance for a high-paying part-time job to pay off his debt. Go Min-si ("The Frog", "Sweet Home") steps into the role of Yeon-joo, an accident investigator at the Labor Disaster Protection Agency. Kim Min-ha-I ("Pachinko", "Light Shop") plays Hyeok-joon's younger sister Ji-yoon, while the mysterious Mr. S, the shady boss of Spyder Human Resource Center, is played by Lee Hee-jun ("Karma", "A Killer Paradox").
