Yoo Yeon Seok gains ghost-seeking ability after opening law office in former shaman's house in "Phantom Lawyer"

SBS’s new Friday-Saturday drama Phantom Lawyer has revealed new photos capturing the moment just ahead Yoo Yeon Seok‘s fate is completely reversed.

“Phantom Lawyer” is a quirky yet heartwarming legal drama that follows Shin I Rang (Yoo Yeon Seok), a lawyer who can see ghosts, and elite lawyer Han Na Hyun (Esom) as they resolve the lingering grievances of their very unusual clients—ghosts—through the law.

While the drama was previously released teaser showed Shin I Rang suddenly changing after becoming possessed, the new photos capture the exact moment one second before all those changes begin.

Shin I Rang, sitting in his newly opened law office, dressed in a neatly tailored suit, sits at an orderly desk with an engraved nameplate that reads “Lawyer Shin I Rang.” The office looks no different from any other lawyer’s office in Seoul. However, upon closer inspection, the space feels unusual. The antique style furniture and decor, together with an interior heavily filled with a sense of age, create a striking contrast to the typical image of a law office.

Room 501 of Okcheon Building – where Shin I Rang set up his office – was once used as a shaman’s house. At the center of it all sits a mysterious incense burner. Shin I Rang’s eyes sparkled with innocent curiosity as he carefully unwrapped the unknown object that was wrapped. Just before he lights the incense, he has no idea what lies ahead. Yet a single, seemingly insignificant spark sends his career as a lawyer on a completely different path. From that moment on, he begins to see invisible beings, hears countless unresolved grievances and becomes entangled in an inescapable fate – all of which begins right there at his desk.
