Soo Yeon (Arin) moves into an apartment in Bongcheon-dong and soon notices disturbing events. The building stands on land where shamans once performed rituals, and a centuries-old curse lies underneath the ordinary-looking neighbourhood.
She meets Tae Oh (Yoon Chan Young), a young man who can see ghosts. Together they investigate the area and try to learn where the curse began. Things turn darker when Soo Yeon is possessed by a ghost and begins to change in unexpected ways.
