Quick Precis
Gu Cheon , a ghost slayer must hunt a cursed ghost spirit haunting the East Palace or lose his life, No pressure!
Episode 1
The Empress Dowager beseeched the Emperor to find someone to exorcise the East Palace after the Crown Prince was found dead.
The Emperor did not believe in the superstitious manbo jambo despite the Empress Dowager telling him that the death of the Crown Prince was not an isolated case. Many past Crown Prince had mysteriously died previously.
The Emperor tended to ignore the call to exorcise but then he had a nightmare that kept him trembling for a long time. Then his young son, who will be the new heir and Crown Prince was suddenly convulsing.
So he began a fact finding for the best ghost slayer. He was told that there was this young guy whose mother was a shaman. A few years back this young guy fell into the water with his mother. The mother drowned but the guy who was really just a boy then survived despite being submerged for more than 15 minutes.
Episode 2
It was pretty intense the opening scene of this second episode but I have a biff with the background music. It is so annoying.
