⭐ Our Verdict

"A mind-bending fantasy thriller that will change how you see life. Seo In-guk delivers the performance of a lifetime."

Choi Yi-jae takes his own life, only to face Death — played with chilling grace by Park So-dam. As punishment, he must experience 12 different lives and die in each one. If he survives any life, he gets to keep it. The catch? He never knows which body he will inhabit next.
