Synopsis
Jenny, the silver-tongued magician, is exhausted after fleeing the police. After running and running, she finally arrives at Yongdugol, a remote village so isolated that even GPS has given up!
There, she hears an incredible rumor, "Is there an elixir of immortality? And its name is... Cheon! Nyeon! Sam! Ju!?"
Following the clues, she arrives at a countryside house filled with the pungent scent of soybean paste. But standing in her way is a 9-year-old grandson of the village's soybean paste grandpa?!
Mysterious in name, actions, and identity, this peculiar kid, Ginseng Boy, is determined to protect his grandpa's treasured Cheonnyeonsamju, and he’ll wield his shovel to do so!
The queen of deception, Jenny, who's after the big prize, vs. the guardian of the elixir, Soybean Jang-i, who moves faster than words!
To claim the Cheonnyeonsamju, she must first defeat Ginseng Boy! Thus begins the most ridiculous, laugh-out-loud showdown of all time!
