Amidst the ruin, Pyo Guwon walks against the tide of fleeing survivors. On his path, he finds Heo Jinwoo, left for dead after an attack. Instead of passing by, Pyo offers a hand, posing a single question: "How does it feel to survive hell?" With that, he leads Jinwoo to a village where death holds no meaning—but in a world that refuses to let go of the past, survival is never that simple.

Monnyang

Jo Jiwon is just your average college kid—well, except for the part where he scams people by pretending to be a shaman. Thanks to his silver tongue and some lucky guesses, he gains a reputation as a spiritual powerhouse.

Unfortunately, word gets around... all the way to Jeong Tae-oh, a superstitious mob boss who actually believes in that stuff. When Tae-oh shows up demanding help, Jiwon pretends to take the job—then immediately tries to run. Too bad he gets caught.

He wakes up in a sketchy motel, staring death in the face. Thinking fast, Jiwon blurts out: "Y-you need me as a talisman! To stay alive, we have to... sleep together!"

He's sure a tough guy like Tae-oh would bolt at the thought.

Instead, Tae-oh just shrugs. "You should've said so earlier. Is once enough or do we need more?"
