The Plot
A Realtor Who Deals in Haunted Properties
Hong Ji-a (played by Jang Nara) is no ordinary real estate agent. She runs ‘Daebak Real Estate’, a specialised agency that buys, cleanses, and resells haunted properties. Cold, sharp, and brutally efficient, she is driven by a painful past and a rare ability that allows her to see and communicate with ghosts during exorcisms.
Her life takes an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with Oh In-beom (played by Jung Yong Hwa), a fraudulent psychic with a hidden ability to sense spirits. Forced to work together, this unlikely duo navigates terrifying hauntings, emotionally charged backstories, and a chilling mystery that connects them both.
