Cheong-yeon is a demigod. Not fully human but not fully divine leaves him longing for the side of himself that he doesn't get to indulge in very often: his human side. This results in him escaping to Earth from the Great Beyond, catching various animals, and then sneaking them back as pets, no matter how often his father tries to convince him to stop. On one of these outings, however, while he's in the form of a deer, Cheong-yeon ends up being injured by a hunter. He's racing through the woods, trying to escape, only to run into another human. Desperate, he begs the human to hide him, which the human does, and even goes so far as to wrap Cheong-yeon's wound. Cheong-yeon is smitten. He wants nothing more than to take this human back with him to the Great Beyond. So, he tells the human to come to a lake, which functions as a pathway between worlds, where he will be able to meet a divine being. The divine being will then grant the human a wish. It's all a ruse so Cheong-yeon can capture him and take him back home as a new pet, but what Cheong-yeon fails to realize is that this man, Mooksan, is not just any human. Mooksan is a murderer, and Cheong-yeon's peaceful divine life is about to be turned on its head because of him.
