A new work by writer Kang Kyung-soo
A world of great mystery

Author Kang Kyung-soo, who has consistently received love from readers by expanding his creative field to include picture books, fairy tales, and youth novels, is now unleashing his explosive imagination on the stage where he excels and is most confident.
The [Ghost Call] series has already proven itself in previous works with the author's unique worldview, unique humor, and fast-paced story development, all upgraded to the next level. It also captures the hearts of readers with a chilling yet addictive mystery that keeps them coming back for more.
Once you open it, you won't be able to take your eyes off the "hard-hitting mystery action" that makes it an exciting reading experience, as if you were playing a game.

Colorful characters and a solid story
Creepy and thrilling fun!

The first in the [Ghost Call] series, 《Ghost Call Vol.
1: Ghost, Reality Appears》 begins with a scene where Jae-seop, an ordinary elementary school student, explains his situation.
Jae-seop, who jumps into the front lines of life to protect his parents and only younger sister who are completely ignorant of the ways of the world, suddenly enters the 'ghost' business after hearing that high profits are guaranteed.
But there is something strange about the scenery here.
'Miya', who brought herself to Ghost, seems to be hiding something, and Ghost's top leader, 'Commander Woongs', is a cat who loves Churu, and his secretary Lucy has the appearance of Frankenstein.
In addition, the child named 'Sier', who is wearing an eyeball hoodie, growls and shows his wariness as soon as he sees Jaeseop.
But the highlight of this work is the monsters that are as impressive as the main character, thanks to the unique imagination of author Kang Kyung-soo.
The appearance of 'Zenaria', a jelly monster that can melt human bones with its powerful digestive juices, 'Talos', a ghost-only vehicle that usually looks like a steel box but can sprout wings and fly, and 'Raum', a servant of the devil who can transform into a monster.
The eerie yet intense and unique characters delight readers' eyes, and the events that unfold as a result are a well-crafted story, even though it is the first volume in the series, raising expectations for the next volume.
Moreover, the process of the main characters Jae-seop and Miya solving a seemingly impossible mission provides a thrilling sense of accomplishment, and the author's signature cheerful wit and humor that are found throughout the work provide the ultimate fun where tension and laughter intersect.


Being able to face your fears
A story of courage, challenge, and growth!

Author Kang Kyung-soo stated that through the [Ghost Call] series, he hopes that children will accept fear and terror not as scary and avoidable emotions, but as opportunities for ‘challenge’ and ‘growth.’
As the author says, the [Ghost Call] series contains the courageous story of an ordinary child who faces his fears and overcomes his own limitations.


If you ask, “Why is it a mystery?” I would say that fear is an emotion we cannot avoid.
Fear is an emotion that we must feel as we live.
_From the author's note

But more than that, I think the reason I created the [Ghost Calls] series is because I like creepy and creepy stories.
Hahaha! _From the author's note

Like this one line from the author, where seriousness and humor coexist, the work cheerfully shows the spirit of challenge that overcomes fear and awakens courage within oneself, and the growth of children that grow within it.
After closing the book, readers will know.
That the real adventure begins the moment you face your 'fear'.
And this is precisely why the upcoming 'Ghost Call Universe' is even more anticipated.
