Things are not going very smoothly for Do Hae Na (Bora, formerly of SISTAR), a soul-gathering grim reaper who has proved relatively inept at her main job. She lives in purgatory, where she also runs a pub-restaurant named Irish Uppercut.

However, although she is good-hearted, her business acumen is also quite poor, and the restaurant’s days appeared to be numbered.

Fate intervenes when haughty sous chef Woo Shi Hyung (Kim Ji Suk) accidentally kills himself – and ends up in purgatory.

Seizing on this unique opportunity, Do Hae Na convinces Woo Shi Hyung to take on a role in the kitchens at Irish Uppercut.

She also encourages him to take part in a cooking contest for the dead – a competition whose first prize could involve a return to the land of the living for Woo Shi Hyung!

The Grim Reapers

Choi Se Hoon (Jung Il Woo) is the head of G.Choi, a chart-topping K-pop entertainment agency with a top-billing roster of star acts.

Many think he is blessed with the Midas touch, and he too believes he can make a star out of just about anyone he chooses to. He is rich and successful – but also aloof, arrogant, and conceited.

One day, he meets a very unusual individual, Lee Yi Ryung (Jin Se Yeon), an innocent and naïve young woman from a humble and conservative countryside family. In almost every way, she is his polar opposite: shy, not brash, and humble, not self-important.

He decides to recruit her to become G.Choi’s latest star, but is shocked to discover that she expresses no interest in becoming a K-pop singer.

Things get even more complicated when he starts to fall for her – and discovers that winning this young woman’s heart is much harder than manufacturing K-pop success! Can Choi Se Hoo change his ways – and win her heart?
