**Three male leads + a story blending reality and imagination + no female lead**
If I told you that life is nothing but a prison and suicide is the only way to escape, would you keep enduring it, or risk everything to break out?
**Soul Guides** are people with a special job: persuading the souls of those who have attempted suicide to return to the living world and keep serving their sentences. But what if a Soul Guide falls into depression himself?
Yao Jing once attempted suicide. Chosen by a Soul Guide named Yang Duo, he became a rookie Soul Guide himself. His job is to persuade souls on the brink of death to return to their bodies and finish the rest of their “sentences” in the human world.
On this journey, Li Xiaochen, another experienced ferryman, joins them. The three run a tavern while shouldering the responsibility of maintaining order in the human world’s “prison.” In this complicated world, the line between life and death grows blurred, and their fates gradually become entwined.
