Top actors Ha Jung-woo and Jung Woo have been cast in a new film, “Along With the Gods.”

The film, based on Ju Ho-min’s web comic of the same title, is about Korean traditional ghosts in the world after death.

After death, Kim Ja-hong, is brought to trial for 49 days with death angles (I cannot understand this). Koreans believe spirits stay in the world for 49 days before they depart.

The Realize Pictures movie has a 15 billion won budget.

Ha, 37, will play Kanglim, a messenger of death, but the role of Jung Woo,34, has not been disclosed.

Cha Tae-hyun and Oh Dal-su have been considering starring roles in the film, but both have not decided.
