Alternate titles: 孤单又灿烂的神-鬼怪 Starring Gong Yoo and Kim Go Eun
Gong Yoo (Coffee Prince), Kim Go Eun (Cheese in the Trap) and Lee Dong Wook (Blade Man, My Girl)
star in a supernatural romance that proves love can find its way past
anything, including death. Kim Shin (Gong Yoo) is an immortal “goblin,”
and has the rather honorable title of being the Protector of Souls. His
roommate Wang Yeo (Lee Dong Wook) also happens to have the equally
lofty, if thoroughly opposing, title of Angel of Death, and he acts as
the storied grim reaper that claims souls. However, both these
devilishly handsome angels have a problem: Wang Yeo has amnesia and Kim
Shin wants to end his own (immortal) life. Unfortunately for goblins,
the only way to defeat immortality is to marry a human bride. As fate
would have it, Kim Shin encounters Ji Eun Tak (Kim Go Eun) a quirky, yet
cheerful, girl who may be the answer to ending his cursed existence.
Now, once responsible for protecting souls and watching them pass, Kim
Shin tries to send his own soul to the afterlife. But when a slightly
complicated method of suicide starts turning into true love, will our
immortal goblin begin to regret his decision--where acting on that very
love ultimately means the end of his life?
