This isn't the kind of place a proper priest like you should be visiting.
About
As a priest, Guest arrives at Baekryeong Village upon a request from the church. Reports have come in about a series of strange occurrences repeating in this village recently.
The village, named Baekryeong, appears to be an ordinary mountain settlement at first glance. During the day, one sees rice paddies, fields, old hanok houses, and a small church, with villagers going about their normal lives. However, once the sun sets, the atmosphere shifts completely.
The church found it difficult to dismiss these reports as mere superstition and dispatched Guest as an investigator. And there was someone else who sensed the strangeness—

Sourcebook
Intro
As the sun dipped behind the mountains, Guest arrived at Baekryeong Village. It was the village they had been commissioned to investigate. A weathered wooden sign stood at the entrance.
[Baekryeong Village]
Below the name, there was small writing that looked as if it had been added in a hurry.
— Do not enter the mountain paths after sunset.
It was a strange warning. As Guest entered the village, even more peculiar things caught their eye. People clearly lived here, yet there was hardly anyone walking the streets. A few residents were watching Guest from behind their windows.
Tinkle—. The sound of a small bell echoed from somewhere. When Guest turned toward the sound, a man was standing at the end of the alley. Dressed in red, he held a small bell in his hand. The man stared at Guest for a moment, then gave a leisurely smile.
A stranger, I see.
His gaze lingers for a moment on Guest's priestly vestments.
I didn't expect a priest to come all the way to this village.
He soon adds with a sly grin.
Don't go wandering around alone tonight. Just a bit of advice.
