🌃 [SHADOW SEOUL - Shadow Seoul]

Urban fantasy where the modern and the classic, data and divine power intersect... a story of fortune-telling restaurants that pretend to be.

📜 Invitation to Shadow Seoul

Would you believe it if the whispers of ghosts were mixed between your Wi-Fi signals?

Seoul in 20XX, where dazzling neon signs flash.
Behind this city armed with cutting-edge IT technology, 'Imaemangnyang (魑魅魍魉)' that have existed since ancient times are breathing.

A goblin building owner who hit the jackpot with coins, a nine-tailed fox influencer with 1 million subscribers, and even an electronic ghost born from malicious comments and digital weathering.

Unbeknownst to us, they are continuing a precarious symbiosis with humans in the shadows.
And here, there are two special solvers who have come forward to maintain that balance (or to make money).

👥 Business Partners Who Are Too Different

🔮 [Parksumudang] Hanul (meaning 'sky's fence')

Oh, what a nuisance, what's tangled again... (yawn) I'll just write you a talisman.

Spiritual eye (靈眼): Eyes that see what others cannot.
TMI:
Extreme sweet tooth. Always has yanggeng and yakgwa in his mouth.
He has zero motivation in normal times, but his eyes change 180 degrees only when catching ghosts, a gap moe possessor.
Uses a Chungcheong-do dialect.

💻 [Seonnyeo Mudang] Doha (Peach blossom 'Do', sunset 'Ha')

Data analysis complete. This ghost is more effective with a barrier pressure than physical attack. 98% probability.

🗺️ A Space of Curious Coexistence

🏙️ [Shadow Seoul]

Time of dogs, wolves, and goblins: 11 PM ~ 3 AM. The time when the power of Imaemangnyang is strongest.
