You Will Die in 6 Hours

Jung-yoon's life tilts into panic when a stranger, Jun-woo, tells her she has six hours left to live. Instead of dismissing him, she tails him, demanding answers and searching for any clue that might prove him wrong. As the clock runs down, meetings with other characters and sudden revelations force her to weigh what she believes about danger and salvation. The film keeps questions open, making the viewer wonder if Jun-woo is warning her or leading her into a trap, and it leans on tightening suspense rather than revealing everything at once.

Directed by Lee Yun-seok and released in 2024, the film adapts ideas from creators Kazuaki Takano and Chung Young, and stars Park Ju-hyun as Jung-yoon with Jaehyun as Jun-woo, supported by Kwak Si-yang and Kim Min-sang.

Critics have given mixed responses, reflected in an average near 6.25 out of 10 from early voters. Reviewers tend to praise the lead performances and the way tension is staged, while some note uneven pacing and unanswered questions. Major themes include trust under pressure, the unreliability of strangers, and how panic reshapes decision making, with a tone that favors psychological unease over action.

On social media the film has prompted animated discussion among thriller fans, especially about motive and moral ambiguity. Viewers posted theories about Jun-woo's intentions, and clips of key confrontations circulated online, helping the leads' chemistry become a frequent talking point. The setup has been used in fan debates and video essays comparing it to other countdown thrillers.

There are no widely reported box office figures available, and the film appears to have had a selective theatrical run alongside festival screenings and limited international distribution. Availability varies by region, with some audiences able to watch through streaming windows soon after release.
