Third-year high school student Claire just lost her mother who committed suicide, and moves in with her cheery aunt (Auntie Anne) and her disapproving grandpa. At her new school, she meets her future bestie (Hannah) who is equal parts intimidating and adorable. In order to win her grandpa's love, Claire becomes a veterinarian and takes over the family business. Fifteen years pass since then, and our story resumes in present-time.
Despite Claire's effort, her veterinary starts to fall and she decided to accept home visits. Pigs and cows are her main source of income but one day, a cow sends her flying through the street. This is where he met the hot-blooded detective, Jared Tan.
Recently transferred to the countryside, Jared Tan's goal is to return to his city within a month. His team leader EMMAN HAN laughs at his lofty dreams since nothing happens in their quiet town, and proving his point, all the officers head out for their newest assignment: directing traffic.
While everyone else busies themselves with the once-in-a-century meteor shower, Claire goes out on another "farm call" to examine a pregnant cow. However, this ordinary night turns extraordinary when a bright light crashes into them and sends Claire flailing through the air. She wakes up at home three days later, and to her horror, she starts seeing her pets' memories when she touches their butts.
"What happened?? Why am i seeing this dog's memories?" she said to herself with a worried and confused face.
(After a long tiring day)
Claire did some research about her case but nothing helped her.
"Should i just go to a shaman?" she asked herself.
(Next day)
Claire decided to seek help to their neighborhood shaman MR. PONCE (JOHN PONCE).
"Mr. Shaman, i need help. Why am i seeing pets' memories whenever i touched their butt." Claire said to the shaman with a worried and confused face.
"Maybe the deity chose you."
"You must perform rites to avoid disaster." The shaman said to Claire.
Accepting her fate with reluctance, Claire performs the rite alongside Mr. Ponce, but her flimsy faith wavers further when he orders her to walk across straw cutters.
"Mr. Shaman, can you please de...monstrate it first" Claire said to the Shaman with a scared face.
"U...um... Okay, I'll show you" The Shaman said to Claire with a worried face that Claire might find out that he was fake.
Mr. Ponce's falls apart as he hurts himself and fails to summon his deity (a.k.a., General McArthur).
"GIVE MY MONEY BACKKK!!" Claire shouted The Shaman.
"I'm really sorry but can i keep just enough for my kid's K-pop lessons in Australia." The Shaman begged to Claire.
Claire decided to just give the money to the shaman to help him because she thinks she can earn it back with the help of her psychometric power whenever she touched the butts of animals.
(After Two Days)
Claire turns to the internet next for answers and discovers the idea of psychometry. She wonders if her powers work on humans and tests her theory on a pickpocket she spots on the bus. When the first tap fails, she goes in for another, but a hand reaches out and cuffs her. It's Jared, and he looks disgusted at the pervert he just caught.
