Tomorrow

After a freak accident leaves Choi Jun-woong part human and part spirit, he winds up working for a company of grim reapers that handles assignments the regular afterlife system won't. Thrown into a team of veteran reapers and younger recruits, Jun-woong learns the rules of an odd workplace while his unusual state gives him access to lives the living still hold onto. The show follows his awkward training, the bonds he forms with colleagues, and a steady stream of missions that test what it means to help someone hold on. It balances darker scenes with lighter, human moments without revealing major plot twists or how conflicts resolve.
