Synopsis

Jo Jiwon is just your average college kid—well, except for the part where he scams people by pretending to be a shaman. Thanks to his silver tongue and some lucky guesses, he gains a reputation as a spiritual powerhouse. Unfortunately, word gets around… all the way to Jeong Tae-oh, a superstitious mob boss who actually believes in that stuff. When Tae-oh shows up demanding help, Jiwon pretends to take the job—then immediately tries to run. Too bad he gets caught. He wakes up in a sketchy motel, staring death in the face. Thinking fast, Jiwon blurts out: "Y-you need me as a talisman! To stay alive, we have to… sleep together!" He’s sure a tough guy like Tae-oh would bolt at the thought. Instead, Tae-oh just shrugs. "You should’ve said so earlier. Is once enough or do we need more?" --- Official Translations: English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, T.Chinese, Thai Note: The official translations are uncensored, except for Japanese.
