According to Netflix, the Hellbound synopsis is about “supernatural beings appear out of nowhere to condemn people to hell. It doesn’t matter whether these events are a blessing or a curse: a new religious group is interpreting them all as the will of the divine.”
This series will also be a collaborative work director Yeon Sang-ho and illustrator Choi Gyu-seok. Choi Gyu-seok is the author of Songgot, a webtoon that was adapted as a television drama in 2015. Choi is expected to exhibit his insight into social issues the way he did in Songgot.
