In exchange, Yugeon must serve as the guide to Shinje’s team, which consists of the withdrawn Joo Taein, the beastly Yoon Chan, and the sadistic Kwon Heesu. Though Shinje seems like the nicest on the team, he might prove to be the most dangerous when he states another condition: Yugeon must follow him into the pit where the very anomaly responsible for all his tragedies awaits…
