Miyoung suddenly finds herself juggling Jihoon’s human world of school and friends with her supernatural world of shamans, spirits, and magic. But one night she strays from the rules, saving the life of Jihoon, a human boy who was attacked by a goblin, and all does not go according to plan. Nevertheless, she manages to follow her mother’s rules, always maintaining distance from others so that her secret is not discovered.
