Playing Ep 01

Summary:

In this darkly comic series, a 28-year-old man finds himself caught between the world of the living and the undead after an unexpected change leaves him with a voracious appetite for human brains. After succumbing to this harrowing hunger and fleeing into the night, a twist of fate sees him struck by a vehicle driven by his friends—a forensic intern and a Taoist. In their confusion and alarm, they take him to a morgue, where, much to their shock, he begins to consume the brains of the deceased.

As the man grapples with his new existence, he discovers that with each brain he consumes, he not only absorbs the memories of the deceased, but their abilities as well. This macabre side effect gives him an unprecedented perspective on life, as he vividly lives through the experiences of others. His newfound power steels his resolve to protect and maintain the hot pot restaurant his family owns, anchoring him to his former life.

Meanwhile, his uncle embarks on a quest to uncover the origins of this bizarre undead outbreak, delving deep into the family's history for clues. The delicate balance between his human emotions and zombie instincts creates a compelling juxtaposition, making this series a unique exploration of identity, family loyalty, and the lengths one will go to for survival.
