Dates according to What’s on Netflix (Dead-End Job), What’s on Netflix (Possible Love) and What’s on Netflix (November). For Blue Road, another page on the same site says “30 October or 20 November”, so it is worth confirming on Netflix.
Dead-End Job, the Halloween release
Hyuk-jun, a young man in debt, takes a part-time job that pays 50 times the usual hourly wage through a mysterious agency called Spyder Human Resource Center. The job soon turns into a nightmare. Lee Jae Wook plays Hyuk-jun, and Go Min Si plays an investigator determined to find out what is going on at the agency. Kim Min Ha and Lee Hee Joon complete the cast. Spanish-language press calls it “Trabajo sin salida”.
