Synopsis
Bullied girl's quest for beauty leads to supernatural transformation and unexpected love transcending life and death.
Hui-Dong, a high school girl struggling with body image issues, faces constant teasing from her classmate Dai-Xi. What she doesn't realize is that his mockery might stem from feelings he can't properly express. Desperate to change her appearance, Hui-Dong begins experimenting with various methods, including questionable substances that promise quick results. Her journey takes an unexpected turn when she encounters supernatural forces that bind her to the world of the living in an unusual form. As she navigates this strange new existence, Hui-Dong finds herself connected to Daishi in ways neither of them could have imagined. Their developing relationship becomes the key to understanding not just her current predicament, but also the true nature of the connections between the living and the spiritual realm. This poignant tale explores themes of self-acceptance, the complexity of teenage emotions, and the unexpected ways love can manifest across the boundaries of life and death.
