Trivia
The film is inspired by the Korean Joseon dynasty Buddhist paintings and early Buddhist scriptures of the "Ten Kings of Hell". In the early Buddhism concepts, the Ten Kings of Hell serve as magistrates of each of the ten courts of the underworld to determine the fate of the deceased including the type and severity of punishment and the course of their cycle of rebirth. On the 49th day after death, the soul of the deceased comes before the seventh king and may be reborn, depending on his or her actions in this world.

Crazy credits
SPOILER: In the second credits scene, 1,000 years ago, Gang-lim's father is seen dying, and is approached by Yeomra about taking over his position. He does so, taking on the appearance of the former Yeomra. This means, all along, over 1,000 years as a Reaper in the afterlife, the Yeomra Gang-lim has been serving all along has been his own father he was desperately seeking the forgiveness of.

Good Enough

The second movie of the Along with the Gods series was entertaining, but not as good as the first one. Whethere the first one was backed with emotions and twists, this one was just a good movie about two things, the trial of the last movie's lead's brother and the past of the three grim reapers massed up in the story of a young boy and his grand father. The story about the boy and the background story on the three main characters were interesting and kind of sad. The trial part, however, failed to impress. And when all the stories came together, it was a quick and awkward mass up, concluding everything so we could move on to the next chapter about the othe soldier, whose story will be presented in the third movie. I just hope that the last one will be the best one. Other than that, the performances were really well by all the actors in the film and they actually looked natural. The special effects in addition, were decent and enjoyable. So, 7.5 out of 10, because it was a good movie, but it could have been better.
