In Seoul, Seo Haneul spends her days working in an old bookstore, pretending to be normal. But normal is hard when you hear the dead. For 21 years, Haneul has lived with hundreds of voices in her head — the echoes people leave behind. She hides the pointed tip of her ear and tries to ignore the spirits that no one else can see.
That changes when a new voice whispers “Run” from beneath the floorboards, and Namsan Tower cracks with crimson light. An ancient voice calls to her: “Guardian… come home.”
Haneul isn’t fully human. She’s half dokkaebi, and the last in a line of Guardians sworn to keep a seal beneath Namsan Mountain. A seal that is failing.
At Seoul National University, she meets Kang Minjae, a history student and part-time exorcist .
