The series features a new genre combining romance and horror, with highlights including serious acting and breathtaking developments.

[Plot Summary] Khem, a university student, has the ability to see spirits due to a curse passed down through his maternal lineage. The curse dictates that males must die before reaching the age of 21. To protect him from the curse, his parents gave him the female name 'Khemjira.' However, as his 21st birthday approaches, disturbing incidents begin to happen around him. On the advice of his best friend Jet, Khem visits Jet's master, an exorcist named Parun. Yet, for some reason, Parun refuses to help. Meanwhile, Charn, a fellow student, becomes suspicious of the duo's mysterious behavior. Amidst this, the spirit of a man who was Parun's younger brother in a previous life appears and tries to take Khem away. Furthermore, a mysterious female spirit demands that Parun hand over Khem. Will Parun be able to break Khem's curse?
