Playing Ep 01

Summary:

In this haunting series, a young woman, Faikham, finds herself reluctantly stepping into an eerie legacy left behind by her deceased mother—a powerful and capricious spirit known as Ka. This strange entity has the dual ability to enhance her beauty with a mere lick of her face while also bestowing upon her a fearsome appearance. The origin of Ka traces back to the malevolent and vengeful Princess Oenglong, a figure known for her brutality and evil deeds during her lifetime.

Despite passing away, Faikham's mother remains under the oppressive influence of Ka, leaving her daughter with the daunting task of liberating both herself and her mother from the spectral grasp of this relentless force.

Fortune strikes when Faikham lands an opportunity to work within the very walls of the royal palace—a realm ripe with the ghosts of the past and the ideal stage for the spirit of Princess Oenglong to exact her long-sought revenge. It is here in the heart of grandeur and power that Faikham must confront the dark legacy that has entwined her fate.

The unsettling core of this narrative draws its inspiration from northern folklore, where an insidious spirit is said to inhabit a wooden puppet, a constant reminder of the pervasive dread that some legends can instill across generations.
