Netflix’s Korean horror series ‘꿀알바’ premieres October 30, starring Lee Jae-wook, Go Min-si, Kim Min-ha and Lee Hee-jun. A debt-ridden young man takes jobs from a mysterious agency offering at least 50 times the normal hourly wage, as long as he survives each shift.
The premise
Hyeok-jun, buried in debt, is recruited by a mysterious staffing office called Geomi Manpower for unusually lucrative temporary jobs. The pay is real, but each workplace is an abnormal and dangerous survival test.
If he makes it home alive, the next job pays even more.

Official teaser
Netflix Korea’s official teaser turns an ad for an easy, high-paying job into a series of increasingly strange survival situations. The series launches on Netflix on October 30.
