Sold into the imperial palace as a lowly maid, Chorae is no ordinary servant. Raised by her shaman grandmother but never taught the sacred arts, she developed her own obsession-making spirits suffer.
Where others fear ghosts, she hunts them.
Where others flee cursed grounds, she sets traps and smiles.
In a palace filled with restless souls and deadly secrets, Chorae quietly crafts tools imbued with divine magic-binding, breaking, and discarding vengeful spirits like worn-out toys.
Then one day, Yi Seungho, a cold and powerful palace official, takes an interest in her. No one understands why. But he begins calling for her... again and again.
She isn't interested in power, titles, or love-just money, peace, and maybe a good haunting to play with.
But together, they begin to peel back the layers of the palace's darkest secrets-one ghost at a time.

When his curse only worsens, Young Min sets off to find a cure in the next town over. A mountain stands between him and his destination, and the path is rumored to be haunted--though the travelers themselves might be more dangerous than the spirits. Along the way, Young Min gets caught up in a mystery involving a crossdressing girl, ghost-fearing musicians, and a horde of belligerent robbers. Everywhere he turns, there seems to be something else blocking him from getting to his destination and finding a cure, especially after the mountain's nine-tailed fox is forced out of hiding.
