The God and the Gwisin is a gorgeously atmospheric continuation of the series, steeped in Korean folklore and ghostly mystique. Centered around a reluctant medium and a mysterious god tied to death, this installment explores grief, vengeance, and redemption with emotional depth and eerie elegance. The chemistry between the leads simmers beneath layers of pain and unspoken truths, drawing readers into a romance haunted by both the past and literal spirits. While the pacing can feel deliberate, the payoff is rich in both worldbuilding and heart. A beautifully written, haunting tale that lingers like a whisper from the other side.
