Synopsis
Park Bong-pal (Ok Taec-yeon) has grown up with the ability to see ghosts. He uses his power to work as an exorcist, banishing ghosts in order to make enough money to undergo a procedure that will take his ability away. At a haunted high school, he encounters Kim Hyun-ji (Kim So-hyun) a feisty high school student who, because of a traffic accident, became a wandering spirit. Hyun-ji believes that Bong-pal might hold the secret as to why she is a spirit. In order to be freed from endlessly wandering the earth and be able to ascend to the next life, Hyun-ji convinces Bong-pal to let her move in, and the two become ghost fighting partners.
With Hyun-ji, Bong-pal finds that he can fight even stronger ghosts, but also learns that not all ghosts are malevolent. Working and living together, Bong-pal, a long time loner, finds himself falling in love with Hyun-ji, who returns his feelings. However, both are unaware that they are being stalked by an evil spirit that was the cause of Hyun-ji's accident, and is the reason Bong-pal can see ghosts.
The male protagonist. Bong-pal is a 23-year-old Economics student and he lived with an exorcist. He can see and interact with ghosts, whom he beats up into leaving their haunts. Due to his ability, he grew up avoiding people and was always a loner before he met and fell in love with Hyun-ji.
The female protagonist. A middle high-school student who, since a car accident when she was 19, has roamed the earth for five years as a wandering spirit. With no memory of her past, she is unable to move on. Discovering that Bong-pal may hold the secret to her past, she moves in with him and becomes his ghost-fighting partner. She can see how ghosts were killed, allowing her to help Bong-pal in dispelling them. Living and fighting, together and against each other, she falls in love with Bong-pal.
The main antagonist. At 31, he is the youngest professor of veterinary medicine at Bong-pal's university. He has been possessed by a powerful evil spirit for so long that it is almost impossible to discern the difference between the two. Before possessing Hye-sung, the spirit had tried to possess the young Bong-pal, and the fragment of the spirit that remains in Bong-pal is the reason he can see ghosts. Fearing a ritual weapon that can destroy him and the spirit that possesses him, Hye-sung has stalked Bong-pal for years and was responsible for the death of his mother, a medium.
