Although she never asked for it, 27-year-old So Yeori possesses the extraordinary ability to communicate with ghosts. She has always considered it a burden rather than a gift and always passes spirits without a single glance. When she moves into a new house, Yeori resolves to ignore the resident ghost. However, he has a different idea. Even when he was alive, Go Joon yearned for the comfort of living together with someone, and his untimely death three years ago only exacerbated his pain. He wants nothing more than to talk to someone, for Yeori to stay; and reluctantly, she agrees to live with him for a year. As two people who have always been alone, Yeori and Joon must now face the joys and hardships of the cohabitation between human and ghost.

Read the full take

Although she never asked for it, 27-year-old So Yeori possesses the extraordinary ability to communicate with ghosts. She has always had to keep that gift to herself. That is a quietly haunting premise, and the series is built on the loneliness of a woman who sees what others cannot and must live with it.The strength is the mood. The ghost scenes are eerie and well judged, and the full-colour art gives the story a moody, polished look. Yeori's struggle to live normally is affecting.The weaknesses are clear. The adult tone can feel heavy, and some arcs move slowly. Readers wanting a lighter ghost story may find the mood too sombre.Recommended for readers who enjoy moody, adult ghost stories with an emotional core. Expect a slow, atmospheric read.
