The premise

Writers that lived under Japanese rule in the 1930's are reincarnated into a bestselling writer who is in a slump, a mysterious ghostwriter and an anti-fan of the bestselling writer.

Horror Vault's take

Decades after a group of passionate writers risked everything under Japanese colonial rule in 1930s Korea, their souls find new life in the present day — bound together once more by forces neither time nor death could sever. A bestselling novelist, a shadowy ghostwriter, and an unlikely antagonist are drawn into a web of déjà vu, creative obsession, and half-remembered loyalties. The past refuses to stay buried, bleeding into the present through visions, instincts, and an inexplicable typewriter that connects both eras. What unfolds is a lush, emotionally layered mystery about who we were, who we've become, and what we owe the lives we lived before.
