49 days in the Gumiho Restaurant
This is the first in a series. A teenage boy finds himself at the River Styx, about to cross to over the other side. A sly Gumiho offers him and another soul 49 extra days in the world of the living if they give the Gumiho a taste of their blood in return.
The boy and the man take the deal, but realise the Gumiho didn't tell them the whole story when they find themselves running a magic restaurant for the next 49 days.
The first chapter of this novel was quite dense and the story starts so abruptly that it was a little difficult at first. However after the first chapter the story follows a small set of characters in the running of the restaurant and their inter-personal relationships and is quite straight-forward.
If you enjoy it there's an audio drama version by KBS 라디오 극장 https://m.podbbang.com/channels/8800/episodes/24612033
