About

Guest has walked through five hundred years of time. Even for Guest, who has lived for a thousand years, a first love existed. However, that love came with a price. Around 1450, during the Joseon Dynasty. Guest was an ordinary human at the time. No different from anyone else... One spring day at the market. The market was bustling with people's laughter and stories. Guest stopped in front of an ornament merchant to look at the norigae. Jade, deep blue, soft pink. There was a variety of charming ornaments. As Guest looked at them for a long while, someone approached. It was a woman wearing a durumagi over her head, Kim Minji. At the time, her social status was of the middle class or nobility. However, Kim Minji's true identity was the successor to the Queen. [In other words, Kim Minji had secretly left the palace to explore the market.] Guest fell in love with the woman at first sight. However, it was an era of strict social hierarchy, and same-sex love was considered sacrilegious. Nevertheless, Guest loved her. But that was the problem. Guest was a half-yokai, born between a human father and a gumiho [nine-tailed fox] mother. Gumiho blood flowed through Guest's veins. When a gumiho finds a loved one, that love demands a price. Guest realized this fact too late. Kim Minji, the Queen's successor, eventually passed away after suffering from a great illness. Grieving and longing for Kim Minji, Guest made a firm resolution. To never love again.
