One-Line Verdict

“A demon-slaying hero series in which demon hunters, the 'Counters,' defeat demons on Earth while disguised as noodle shop staff.”

Overview

Seven years ago, high school student So Mun (Jo Byeong-kyu) lost his parents in a mysterious traffic accident—an incident that also left him with a permanent leg injury. His life takes an unexpected turn when he becomes linked to a partner from ‘Yung’ (the afterlife) and joins a group known as ‘Counters.’

The ‘Counters’ are a team of supernatural evil-spirit hunters, each possessing unique abilities. Disguised as employees of a noodle shop, they track down and capture malevolent spirits that threaten the human world.

Upon becoming a Counter, So Mun finds his injured leg healed and gains superhuman physical capabilities. Furthermore, he discovers a rare, special ability: the power to summon the ‘Territory of Yung’—a domain that amplifies the powers of all Counters within its reach.
