India, Nov. 2 -- A job that promises 50 times the minimum wage sounds like a dream, especially when you are buried in debt. But what if getting that money means putting your life on the line every single day? That is the strange bargain at the heart of Dead-End Job, a South Korean series that takes the desperation of finding work and gives it a terrifying twist.
