Tofu Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Death's Game 이제 곧 죽습니 Spoiler Korean Title: Ije God Jukseubnida / 곧 죽습니다 English Title: Death's Game Adapted From the Webtoon: Ije God Jukseubnidaby Lee Won Sik and illustrated by Gul-chan (English) Director/Writer: Ha Byung Hoon (Previous work: 18 Again) Network: tvN / TVING Episodes: 8 Release Date: December 15th, 2023 English Subtitle: Official Website: Synopsis: He's perennially unemployed, his ex-girlfriend has moved on, and he's just lost all his life savings to a bitcoin scam. Burdened by societal pressures, Choi Yi Jae (Seo In Guk) decides to take his own life. Insulted by his flippant attitude towards dying, Death (Park So Dam) comes to punish him with her game: he must experience death over and over again through 13 other lives. But if he can find a way to survive the imminent death coming for these lives, he gets to live out their lifetime. His life was a bust, but what about the lives of others? (Credit) 3 Link to comment

Tofu Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 I read a little bit of the webtoon and it's actually pretty interesting. Basically, the ML committed suicide. He meets Death (played by Park So Dam). I'm not exactly who she is as I'm not at that part in the webtoon yet. She has him live out the lives of 13 people and their deaths. If he's able to save one of the lives, he can continue living as that person. The lineup for all the people Seo In Guk will "play" is pretty insane too.

Tofu Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 The lives so far that I've read in the webtoon are: - A chaebol - A student who is bullied at school - A magician - A murderer It'll be interesting to see who plays these characters. 1 1 Link to comment
Tofu Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 Sung Hoon is confirmed. I'm really curious to know who everyone is going to played. I can't even begin to guest because they can be anyone. Continuing on with the WebToon, I am now at the fifth reincarnation, a live streamer. 2 Link to comment
mademoiselle Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 It's confirmed... @abs-oluteM @Tofu We can re-adopt him now @abs-oluteM. Pretending that drama before never existed... 2 Link to comment
Tofu Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 I am really curious to know who they will all play. Choi Si Won reminds me a bit of the live streamer, so maybe he'll play that character. I can also see Sung Hoon as that one too. Whoever plays the murderer will be interesting because the male lead had a very difficult time in that body. There are these side characters that are kind of important, so I wonder if some of the celebrities will be playing those characters too. @mademoiselle @abs-oluteM He might go back to school again and play the student who gets bullied. 1 1 Link to comment
mademoiselle Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 @Tofu With so many characters cameoing, that would mean SIG's screen time is reduced isn't it? I like some of these cameos but I don't know if I want to trade some of them with SIG. 1 1 Link to comment
Tofu Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 @mademoiselle I think he'll have limited scenes too. In the webtoon, you do see him as the characters when he's having his inner dialogues so maybe they'll show SIG during those moments? Whenever he switch bodies, he'll see Death (Park So Dam's character) and that usually is quite the scene. I can't wait to see her approach to that character. Death is so feisty and such an interesting person. Actually, the whole interaction between SIG's and PSD's characters will be interesting because they are like oil and water. 1 Link to comment

Don't set my expectation up too high especially with Park So Dam. She hasn't wow me in dramas. I know SIG can pull off quirky all the time so I hope this time the writing is good. I ♥ him too much but Minamdang was just impossible to keep going. 1 Link to comment

I didn't mind Record of Youth that much until halfway into it. The writer just couldn't keep it together and the storyline got ridiculous especially that ending. 1 Link to comment

Record of Youth was quite meh for me since the beginning but it definitely got worst. My fave part is only when PBG was playing the villain. LOL! That writer disappointed me as well in Temperature of Love. I loved the first 10 episodes of that drama. I love YSJ and his acting too, but the second leads made me angry. I felt like she ruined KJW's character. Jo Bo Ah's character was horrible; she doesn't deserve the sous chef's love. 1 Link to comment

Tofu Posted August 5 Author Share Posted August 5 Lots of cameos from many celebrities! I'll be back later to make some guesses on who I think each one is playing -- which reincarnation they are. 1 Link to comment
