Yoon Ah-ee is barely holding her life together. Her mother has left, her father has fled loan sharks, and she is raising her little sister alone while trying to survive school and poverty at once. Rumor has it that a magician appears at an abandoned carnival on the edge of town, a man who can seemingly make people disappear.

When Ah-ee seeks him out, she finds someone who offers her something she has had no room for: wonder. This Korean manhwa contrasts childhood imagination with the harsh realities of poverty and growing up, using the carnival's fading magic as a stand-in for the innocence adulthood demands she give up.
