## Synopsis

Again My Life (2022) is a South Korean crime drama series created by Kim Yong-min and Han Cheol-soo for SBS. Lee Joon-gi plays prosecutor Kim Hee-woo, who is murdered while investigating corruption and then reborn as his earlier self, with Kim Ji-eun as Kim Hee-ah among the principal cast. Working alongside a wealthy family heir, he uses what he now knows to chase the powerful figures behind his death, while the investigation pulls him into the family and institutional networks that shaped his life. The series runs for sixteen one-hour episodes as one continuing story, so each case and revelation builds toward a larger reckoning rather than standing alone. Its tone blends tense, propulsive investigation with melancholic reflection on regret and second chances. Set in contemporary South Korea, it is a Korean drama built on a legal and political milieu. Fans of Stranger, Life and Tomorrow's Child will find resonance in its time-bending premise and corruption-driven mystery.
