Imagine a law office hidden inside a former shaman’s house, a lawyer who can literally see the souls of the deceased, and a no-nonsense elite attorney who refuses to believe any of it — until strange things start happening. That’s the world of SBS’s Phantom Lawyer, and its latest special poster just made the wait feel impossible.
What the Special Poster Shows in Phantom Lawyer
The newly released special poster is set on a building rooftop. Amid the city’s skyscrapers bathed in a red sunset, Shin I Rang and Han Na Hyun stand side by side, looking up at the sky. In front of them is a brick-lined brazier, with flames burning inside and talismans placed nearby — the place where Shin I Rang performs the ritual to send off the deceased, helping to resolve the last soul’s unresolved grievances. It’s hauntingly beautiful, blending the gritty energy of a courtroom thriller with the quiet ache of a proper farewell.

The Story: Grudges, Ghosts, and Courtroom Drama
Phantom Lawyer follows Shin Yi-rang, a lawyer who moves into a shaman’s old office and starts seeing ghost clients. What begins as a bizarre quirk quickly becomes the foundation of an entirely new kind of legal practice — one where clients can’t knock on your door because they’re already dead.
Opposite him, Han Na Hyun is Taebaek Law Firm’s star attorney — cold, calculated, and undefeated. Until she loses a case. That’s when she crosses paths with Yi Rang, who insists he sees ghosts. She doesn’t believe him. Then the strange things begin.
Yoo Yeon Seok stars as Shin Yi Rang, a lawyer with the supernatural ability to resolve the grudges of the deceased. His character poster carries the striking line — “Do you still see me as a lawyer?” — hinting at the identity crisis that runs beneath the comedy and thrills. Esom’s poster carries the phrase, “Being a lawyer was originally my sister’s dream,” anchoring her character in quiet grief and borrowed purpose.
One of the most exciting creative angles: Yoo Yeon Seok will portray new characters every episode through his character being possessed — which means viewers get a fresh performance from him with every case. That alone makes Phantom Lawyer one of the most technically ambitious Korean legal dramas in recent memory.
