The Guide

Mr. Cha, I have a crush on you. Cha Ji-Won, director of Gallery Hwadam. With his exceptional talent and striking good looks, this man, who seems perfect to anyone who sees him, possesses one secret ability. He can see ghosts and draw their portraits to banish them. One day, after banishing a tormenting spirit with a single drawing as he usually does, Ji-Won is dragged to “Jungcheon” for sending the deceased away without following proper procedures. And there, in Jungcheon, the place where the dead are judged, he meets Ga-On, the ruler of Jungcheon. At first, it was a matter of pride. He thought it was simply curiosity toward a transcendent being who wouldn’t even glance his way. It was a feeling too complex to call mere determination, but he had no other way to explain it. Yeah, that’s how it was at first… but why does she look so beautiful to me now? Ga-on, who has spent her entire life judging the dead as part of her millennia-long mission, has only 30 years left. In her life, where she has never even tasted a simple Americano, Cha Ji-Won, the first man to treat her with warmth, begins to make his way into her heart. The two of them judge and save the dead together. Will they be able to save each other? (Source: KakaoPage, translated)
