In this world and the next, both good and evil exist. But who do you call when evil spirits from the afterlife escape to prey on innocent human lives? You call the Counters, people with supernatural abilities, who also happen to run a noodle shop. When one's killed, an ordinary high school student is unexpectedly chosen to take their place. The seemingly mundane life of So Mun takes a drastic turn as his body changes (curly hair now included) and he starts to show a talent for his new role.
