Production and release edit

Bitter Sweet Hell was originally scheduled for release in the second half of 2023, under its former title Gaslighting (가스라이팅; Gaseuraiting).[2][6] Kim Seung-woo, who wrote and directed the 2019 film Bring Me Home, was initially announced to participate as the creator and director of the series.[8]

Actress Kang Hae-rim was initially confirmed to play the role of Lee Se-na.[8] However, in October 2023, it was revealed that filming for the series was temporarily halted in August. After filming about five episodes of the series, reorganization began due to lead actress Kim Hee-sun's movie promotion schedules and the production company was changed from JPX Studio to Red Nine Pictures. She had to drop out of the series during the production suspension period.[17] In January 2024, it was announced that actress Yeonwoo had joined the cast, taking over Kang Hae-rim's role.[9][18]

In November 2023, it was revealed that the director was also changed to Lee Dong-hyun, who directed She Knows Everything (2020) and Doctor Lawyer (2022).[6]
