"Death in Progress" is about four coworkers, Ken, Hoon, Xie Xie, and Ji-won, who are suddenly put together not by a random company project but by a horrifying zombie apocalypse. What happens when four souls with varied morals and survival instincts are put together in a life-threatening situation? As the apocalypse worsens and fate tests their limits, death is in progress-but so is love. Will Ken and Hoon finally find the meaning they have been searching for in each other during the darkest time of their lives?

"We can't leave them behind!" Ken urges, trying to pry himself out of Hoon's tight grip.
"Saving them will only cost us more! We'll be dead if we try to save everyone else! Get a grip, Ken!" Hoon's grip tightens around Ken's arm as he pulls him back.
"I'd rather die human than live as a coward," Ken snaps, breaking free and crawling back into the dark hole, the rotting stench rising something bitter in his throat.
"I'd rather live than die with you!" Hoon spits out in anger but catches Ken by his ankle and drags him back with newfound strength anyway. He shoots Xie Xie an eye for help, which comes immediately.
"If you all don't board the car in the next five seconds, we're all gonna die!" Ji-won yells as Hoon drags a struggling Ken.
Xie Xie plops beside Ji-won, huffing, one leg dangling on the younger's thigh, his arm caught out behind Ji-won's head.
"Get your horny ass leg away from me," Ji-won mutters, starting the car, making Xie Xie pout and retreat his leg.
"Mean."
