The goddesses of life and death, Samsin Halmang and the Haeseong Halmang
A rematch of the gods surrounding the birth of a child
“There are things that people absolutely need to live.

“There must be a ‘reason to live.’”

“They say that babies are blessed by the Three Goddesses.” This is a story that every Korean has heard at least once.
"Return Match" takes this old legend and asks new questions from a modern perspective.
If all children are born according to God's choice, why are life sometimes born even in environments that are difficult to raise?

The main character, Eunbi, was born into a single-parent household and, even now as a high school student, lives with the scars of the world's prejudice and criticism.
Friends who ignore and bully you, adults you can't trust, even a mother who never understands your feelings...
Eunbi, who desperately wanted a chance to erase her current life and start a new one, ends up at a crossroads between life and death after meeting a mythical being.
Will Eunbi be able to change her fate and achieve the life she wants?

“If you just sign here, you can be reborn.
In the kind of house you want.
But there is one condition.”
“What is that?”
“You have to be a witness in my trial.”
Mr. Do put a pen in Eunbi's hand.
Eunbi's fingers trembled slightly.

“Grandma from the afterlife.
To request a retrial, you must have evidence that could overturn a confrontation from three thousand years ago.
“Did you bring such evidence?”
Then, Mr. Do answered with a smile on his face.
“Of course.
“That child is the proof.”
“What kind of evidence do you mean?”
“This is evidence that will reveal that Samshin Halmang had the wrong child.”

“There are things that people absolutely need to live.
Do you know what that is?
“What? Money?”
“No, people need to have a ‘reason to live.’
The world is a beggar, and the author called father is useless.
So Lee Ga-yeon doesn't want to live now.
But paradoxically, on the other hand, I want to live properly.
Well then, that's not necessary.
“A reason to live.”

“You can’t listen to the Gongmyeongjinhonbuk alone.
It can only be lifted if many souls join forces.
“The more souls that sympathize with your story, the more the drum will ring.”
“Well then, everyone! Please help me.”
Eunbi asked for help from someone for the first time in her life.
I always thought that asking for help meant losing.
Fearing that people would find out his secret, he always tried to solve it on his own.
That was the first moment when Eunbi opened her heart and found courage.
