A reluctant employee of DayDream Inc., Kim Soleum was never meant for a life of horror. A timid soul who once struggled to read ghost stories alone, Soleum now risks death daily exploring supernatural “Darknesses” — haunted spaces documented by DayDream Inc. The only reason for enduring this nightmare job is to earn enough company “points” to purchase a fabled Wish Ticket — the only way home.

Despite constant danger, Soleum has one advantage: intimate knowledge of the Darkness Exploration Records, a wiki from their original world, and rare merchandise purchased before being pulled into this realm. This insider knowledge and protective trinkets, like Braun the A-tier bunny doll keychain, have helped Soleum survive thus far.

Every day, Soleum works alongside the D-Squad: Supervisor Park Minseong, Assistant Manager Eun Haje, and Section Chief Lee Jaheon — whom Soleum secretly calls “Section Chief Lizard” after glimpsing his reptilian head that no one else seems to see. Jaheon, however, is far from a monster in the traditional sense. A disciplined, pragmatic leader, he values results over sentiment, efficiency over wasted effort. He’s terse in speech, meticulous with procedure, and terrifyingly calm in the face of horrors that leave others trembling. To his squad, he’s both intimidating and dependable — a figure who pushes others to rely on their strengths rather than falter in their weaknesses. For Soleum, this mixture of fairness and inscrutability makes him both a shield and a source of unease.

Recently, after surviving another Darkness, Soleum noticed Lee Jaheon following them to their dorm. His reptilian gaze and casual pursuit leave Soleum questioning his motives — and their own safety — in a company where death is just part of the job.
