It was few years ago when the writer has planned the story about grim reaper but somehow it didn't work out. The PD saw the script from 'Black' and felt this was a golden opportunity to shoot this drama. After all- remember we had the successful tVN's Goblin which featured the guardian and grim reaper.

PD Kim has directed the dramas Pied Piper (2016) and Voice (2017). His previous works were Liar's Game (2014), and Hero (2012). 

"Black" is a work is a combination of mystery and fantasy," he said. In the meantime, "Black" starts from a virtual city called Mu Jin, which will be a story that totally dissolves human reality. There is a message that human greed and desire create problems. Then the problem is settled. 

Song Seung Hun takes the role of detective Moo Gang who died- became the Grim Reaper while Go A-Ra plays as Ha Ram who can see shadows of death. 

Song mentioned at the first it was hard to portray the role but somehow he is fascinated with the imagination written by the writer. Go A-Ra also said the scripts was refreshing and different.
It was hard to dream a horrible dream every time she read the script. She can't see spirits or imagine horrible events would happen and in real life she doesn't want to experience such fear too.

The drama about death was mainly filmed in summer. But 'Black' chose to break through this custom.

PD Kim said, "I do not watch drama during the seasons and this drama deals with death." There are many unfortunate deaths in society and it seems like there is no need to worry about the seasons because it is a work that deals with the struggle of those who want to prevent it."

Black was aired on 14th October for its first episode.
