Kim Ja Hong (Cha Tae Hyun) is a fearless firefighter who dies at the scene of an emergency. At the moment of his death, he finds himself traveling outside his body, witnessing his coworkers trying to resuscitate him as his life ebbs away. He realizes he is now in the afterlife, and he is greeted by three godly guardians, namely Hae Won Maek (Joo Ji Hoon), Lee Deok Choon (Kim Hyang Gi), and Gang Rim (Ha Jung Woo). The trio believes him to be a rare paragon of virtue, a man who has lived a truly virtuous life. If they are proved correct, they will succeed in having him reincarnated, and will also stand a chance of returning to the mortal realm themselves.

But in order to complete the mission, Kim Ja Hong must prove his worth in seven otherworldly courts in the space of 49 days. The courts have unique access to all the apparent misdeeds he has committed over his lifetime. In each courtroom, he must prove he was not at fault, with the guardians acting as defense lawyers. Can Kim Ja Hong pass the trials of the underworld – and does he really want the ultimate prize of reincarnation?

“Along With the Gods: The Two Worlds” is a 2017 South Korean movie that was directed by Kim Yong Hwa.

 The 🔆 Two Worlds ☀ Team

Su Hong (Kim Dong Wook) was a budding legal student who was killed while on duty while doing his military service. He then returned as a vengeful spirit to punish those who wronged him and his family. But he has now been taken into the afterlife, where he must pass a series of trials – assisted by the otherworldly guardians Hae Won Maek (Joo Ji Hoon), Lee Deok Choon (Kim Hyang Gi), and Gang Rim (Ha Jung Woo) – if he is to gain reincarnation. The guardians, too, have much to gain from this: If Su Hong is reincarnated, they too will be allowed to return to the mortal sphere.

The king of the underworld (Lee Jung Jae) says he will allow Su Hong to be reincarnated, but one condition: The guardians must take the life of an old man who has been alive for too long. This old man has guardians of his own, a household deity as well as a mortal hero – his grandson Sung Ju (Ma Dong Seok). The trio’s quest becomes ever more difficult as their quest inadvertently sucks them back into their past lives…

Antique

Following Korea’s liberation in 1945, one of the country’s first acts was to reinstate the Korean monarchy. Since then, the country has thrived under the reign of its emperors and a fondness has grown between the monarchy and its people. As such, when it’s announced that Emperor Lee Hyeon (Park Chan Hwan) has fallen ill, the entire country hopes and prays for his quick recovery.

With the Emperor gravely ill, the imperial family insists that Crown Prince Lee Shin (Joo Ji Hoon) take a bride, thus securing his ascension to the throne, should the need arise. Though he once wished to marry Min Hyo Rin (Song Ji Hyo), a talented ballerina who chose her career over the prince, Lee Shin finds his wishes ultimately irrelevant as his grandfather had promised his hand to Shin Chae Kyung (Yoon Eun Hye), the granddaughter of the late Emperor’s best friend. Though not in love with the prince, Chae Kyung agrees to honor the late Emperor’s wishes to help her financially struggling family and soon finds herself trading her life as a normal high school girl for that of a Crown Princess.

Adjusting to life in the palace is hard for Chae Kyung, especially since her husband tends to give her the cold shoulder, but the arrival of Prince Lee Yul (Kim Jeong Hoon) makes her life a little easier as the two quickly become good friends. Despite her husband’s seemingly frozen heart, Chae Kyung can’t help falling for him over time. But can she ever win his heart if it seems it already belongs to someone else?
