'A Week Before I Die' tells the story of 24-year-old Jeong Hee-wan, who lived like a hikikomori without the will to live, when her childhood friend and first love Kim Ram-woo appears as the grim reaper and tells Hee-wan that he will die in a week. It's a green drama. It depicts the romance of two young men and women who become entangled in the traditional fantasy that the Grim Reaper appears in the form of the person they love the most before death.
