From NetComics:

Unfortunately, this also makes him easy prey to the many enemies he has made throughout his career. Instead of going in hiding, however, Evan decides to hole up at his press office - not the safest place for a man in Evan's situation.

Unwilling to have his star reporter remain so vulnerable to attack, the Editor-in-Chief orders Evan to cover an out-of-state story: "real" ghost sightings in a secluded village in the countryside—an article too absurd to be handled by the New York Times. For lack of a better thing to do, Evan decides to follow his editor's orders and drives across the Midwestern desert searching for a town nobody seems to have heard of. After ten days of driving by sleepy rural villages with zero results, our lost and exhausted New Yorker is just about ready to give up. But then suddenly, a road sign pointing to "Roureville" catches his eye, and he heaves a sigh of relief. Little does he know that the end of his long road trip is just the beginning of an incredible tale.

as always with manhwa, the pacing can throw you off. however, if you keep on this, you will be rewarded. to me, i really dont understand how anyone thinking such obvious attack will make a journalist go away and if you are able to get pass such point the first volume will be easier for you.
the main characters are interesting and have good chemistry. the side characters are an eclectic bunch, and kinda fun though sometimes irritating. the art is very pretty, though not detailed. the character profiles can sometimes be confusing and the mangaka is unable to draw different ages well as most look like teenagers, but if you can stand that, it will be ok. the sticking point to most people will probably be the supernatural aspect as it is kinda random how some have powers and some have abilities to touch J so if you need to get over it fast as it will never be explained.
interesting and good.

I wasn't sure what to think when going. I love/hate Korean manhwa cause they tend to be long, overly dramatic and have hit or miss endings. But this was so beautiful! I just finished reading and I already want to re-read again. Plus it's shounen-ai to boot- with actual romantic implications instead of close bromance. I recommend not reading this before you have to go somewhere cause you won't want to leave your house before finishing. It's a perfect story for a peaceful Sunday afternoon because you'll feel satisfied after reading it.

I wasnt into it at the beginning since the supernatural part and people were confusing. But then when I got to mid vol2, things get serious and the end of vol 3 = mind blown.
Its was a little dark and sad but the ending is so good that u feel like ur heart was lifted.

I usually avoid supernatural/fantasy mangas and or manhwas like a plague. I didn't see the tag and read the first few chapters before realising there were supernatural elements. I hate dropping mangas half way through especially ones as good as this, so I carried on reading. I ended up loving it, it was simple yet so poignant. I was drawn into the mystery of it all and by the end I couldn't but not think of how Lee Hae was so poetic.
Overall, I'd give this a high rating seeing as the art and plot were both unique and completely amazing.

It's different than other shounen ai series.
IN A GOOD WAY.
i suggest you try it, it can be confusing, but there's something that makes you come back for more.~

This series blew my mind away. I didn't know what to expect from it at first, since the beginning was a bit confusing and slow-paced, but after things picked up in a few chapters, it was just completely amazing. The plot has some supernatural elements, which I don't usually prefer, but somehow they worked so well with the story. Also, all the characters are very lovable and multi-dimensional; but what I love most about this is that there is a gradual and more realistic development of romance between the two main characters. There's no sudden leap of passion or love at first sight that's so often the cliché situation in BL manga.
If you've read Lee Hae's other work, Not So Bad, I'd say that this one has better art and plot in comparison, even though I liked Not So Bad as well.
