The trailer is picturesque, as supernatural beings attack people on Earth and take them to hell with them. In a small amount of time, the Earth became the “living hell.” The narrator Jin-soo explains in the trailer-

“Why do people sin? Sin exists because humans choose to sin. We have forgotten about shame, remorse, repentance, and redemption. God has found a way to directly show you what hell is like. You must become more righteous. It’s the fear that will set people free from sin. I’d like to welcome you all to the new world.”

This drama combines the theme of notions of hell, religions, and humanity. With the declaration of a new religion, Saejinrihwe, death angels, come to Earth to take away the sinners from hell.
