The A Bloody Lucky Day trailer finds Lee Sung-min playing a taxi driver, and it all starts on a good note. There’s happy music being played in the background, and Sung-min comes across as pretty likable. However, his fortunes turn when he picks up a serial killer. This has to be a taxi driver’s worst nightmare – picking up someone who could murder them. We also meet a woman who is the mother of one of the killer’s victims, and she’s out to bring the killer to justice.
What is Paramount+’s A Bloody Lucky Day About?
The official description of A Bloody Lucky Day reads, “In A Bloody Lucky Day, Oh Taek is a down-on-his-luck taxi driver having an uncharacteristic streak of good fortune when he agrees to drive a mysterious man named Geum Hyuk-soo to a faraway city in exchange for an exorbitant fare. But when the passenger reveals himself to be a serial killer, confessing to grisly crimes in his past and murdering others on the highway, the taxi driver must play mind games to ensure his lucky streak doesn’t come to a deadly end.”
The series stars actors Lee Sung-min (Reborn Rich) as Oh Taek, Yoo Yeon-seok (Narco-Saints) as Geum Hyuk-soo and Lee Jung-eun (Parasite) as Hwang Soon-gyu, and is based on the Naver Webtoon A Day of Bad Luck by Aporia.
