[ HONG KONG MOVIE 6 ]
    According to the laws of Afterlife, all deceased must go through 7 trials over 49 days divided into 7 sin categories: betrayal, violence, filial piety, murder, indolence, deceit, and injustice. Once the deceased clears all 7 trials, he can be reincarnated and start a new life. "Mr. Kim Ja-hong, you died as expected without complications." Having died unexpectedly at a scene of fire while trying to save a little girl, firefighter Ja-hong is taken to the purgatory by 3 Afterlife guardians – Kang-lim, Hewonmak and Deok-choon. As the first paragon in 19 years, he must go through 7 trials over 49 days in order to be reincarnated. The 3 guardians were promised of reincarnation as well by King Yeomra, who rules the Afterlife, if they successfully defend 49 souls and do their best defend Ja-hong’s innocence in trials as their 48th client. His journey progresses without a hitch, until his brother Su-hong, who died begrudgingly, has turned into a Vengeful Spirit and begins attacking the Afterlife, thereby interrupting Ja-hong’s trial. Through the course of this battle, hidden facts surrounding Su-hong’s death are uncovered and proof of Ja-hong's innocence is now uncertain. Risking their own fate in the Afterlife, the 3 guardians fight to reincarnate both brothers.

    Mary has moved to Redmanor Village. In a nearby forest she finds a mysterious flower called the "Fly-by-Night" that only blooms once in seven years. It is also called the forbidden "Witch’s Flower".

    Acquiring magical powers that last only for one night, Mary is permitted entry into Endor College, the magical world's finest educational institution, towering above a sea of clouds. However, one lie by Mary causes a serious incident to fall on somebody she cares about.

    The headmistress of Endor College, Madam Mumblechook, seeks the Witch's Flower.

    Endor College's scientist of magic, Doctor Dee, conducts strange experiments.

    Mary encounters a mysterious red-headed witch and a boy called Peter.

    Mary finds a way to escape the land of witches, and that is precisely when Mary loses all her magical powers...

    The truth about the "Witch’s Flower" is gradually revealed. Mary is left with just one simple broom and a single promise she has made.

    In a world surging with magic, what is the glimmer of hope that Mary, a powerless human girl, finds beyond the darkness?

    This summer, Mary finds... surprises and joy... mistakes and destiny... and a bit of courage.
