Synopsis[edit]

Kim Wook (Go Soo) uses his good looks and smooth talking to swindle people out of their money. After a mishap with some bad guys, however, he arrives in Duon Village, a place where the dead live, or people whose bodies were never found. This village is invisible to the outside world, but Wook can see these villagers. He finds himself drawn to these people and helps them solve the mystery of their deaths.

Cast[edit]

Main[edit]

An ex-swindler who scammed people who are extorting money from poor people. By chance, he entered Duon Village after running away from gangsters whom he saw were abducting a woman.
The secret-keeper of Duon Village is a living person. He lives in a shabby house nearby in the mountain, and was the one who saved Kim Wook when the latter fell from a cliff and landed on a tree. From then on, he became good friends with Kim Wook, & takes care of the latter. He had been the seeker for the missing bodies of the villagers for 10 years. He pretended to be a dead soul when he entered the village, with only Thomas Cha knowing his and Kim Wook's true identities.
A bright civil servant leading a double life as a hacker. She is a professional when it comes to computing and always helps Kim Wook in finding information and always comes to rescue the team. She resigned from her job after Kim Nam-guk's death to take over his pawnshop.
A competitive detective who is restless and dedicated. He would catch the criminals assigned to him by any means, including to find his fiancée who went missing after their argument.
Shin Joon-ho's fiancée is an orphan. She was abducted by unknown men and her soul ended up at Duon Village, where she met Kim Wook.
Foreman of Duon Village who has been there for over 100 years. In the village, he runs a cafe named Hawaii Cafe which also serves as an entrance for the dead to enter the village.
She was a captain with 30 years of experience while she was alive. But now she had become a figure with a mysterious past behind the roaring laughter as she lived in Industrial Complex 3.
