In the first episode of the 2024 K-drama, audiences meet the Bok family head, Bok Man-heum (played by Go Doo-shim), trying to end her life, after discovering that the family’s magical powers are gone. However, her husband, Eom Soon-gu (played by Oh Man-seok), stops her from doing so. Soon, they find their son Gwi-joo (played by Jang Ki-young) missing. The family then rushes to the beach and witnesses Do Da-hae (played by Chun Woo-hee) saving Gwi-joo. Man-heum predicts that she will be the saviour of the Bok family.
