Imagine a part-time job that pays 50 times the usual hourly wage. Now imagine why it pays that much. That’s the hook of **Dead-End Job**, Netflix’s upcoming Korean series, which just released new character posters and stills.

## Dead-End Job: Plot

Hyeok Jun (Lee Jae Wook) is buried in debt and desperate for money. He finds the mysterious **Spider Staffing Agency**, which offers jobs starting at 50 times the minimum hourly wage. At the job site, he gets a bad feeling, and his character poster, with blood trickling down his face, hints at the life-threatening danger ahead. The drama is described as a mystery-horror fantasy about a hellish workplace with horrors he never imagined.
