Production has started on Korean YA horror series, "Wish Your Death" (working title), about five high-school friends who receive a death warning from a mysterious wish-granting app. As they struggle to escape their fates, the five uncover chilling truths that connect the app to the sudden death of a classmate.
As A-list talent costs in Korea soar, "Wish Your Death" taps up-and-coming actors including Jeon So-young, who plays a promising track athlete determined to uncover the secrets of the wish-granting app; and Kang Mi-na ("Hotel Del Luna") who plays a popular girl who doesn’t believe the app’s ominous reputation.
The other three leads are played by Baek Sun-ho ("Between Him and Her"); Hyun Woo-seok ("Time to Be Strong"), who uses his coding skills to unravel the app’s mysteries; and Lee Hyo-je ("Hunted") as a mischievous prankster whose life changes after making a wish on the app.
"Wish Your Death" is directed by Park Youn-seo ("Kingdom" S2) and produced by CJ ENM Studios and Kairos Makers.
