Mystic Pop-Up Bar

May 20, 2020

Weol-ju (Hwang Jung-eum) runs a pojangmacha that appears to people in their dreams, helping them resolve emotional wounds. Kang-bae (Yook Sungjae) has the uncontrollable ability to make anyone touch him confess their deepest feelings. The Chief (Choi Won-young) supervises the operation. Insadong's alleyways frame the bar's real-world appearance.
