The Genie TV original series The Midnight Studio unveiled its trailer. 

The Midnight Studio unfolds the story of Seo Ki Joo, a photographer who runs a photo studio for ghosts, and Han Bom, a passionate lawyer who ends up working with him.

The trailer gives a glimpse of the photo studio in action. 

Once night falls, the photo studio can be seen bustling with the ghost guests. Only the dead, who were unable to depart to the afterlife due to unfulfilled desires, can enter through the studio's doors. This is why photographer and owner Seo Ki Joo (Joo Won), along with his two ghost employees, Go Dae Ri (Yoo In Soo) and Baek Nam Gu (Eum Moon Suk), warmly greet the ghost guests by saying, "Welcome, dear guest." 

Seeing how the gates are crowded with guests, it seems many haven't had a satisfactory death. The guests of the studio are of all kinds, from those dressed up beautifully in wedding dresses, to cheerful children, to those bidding a tearful farewell to their loved ones. Even Seo Ki Joo, with his 20 years of ghostly experience, finds managing the studio challenging.

Seo Ki Joo would have continued his life as usual had Han Bom (Kwon Na Ra) not stepped into the photo studio.    

Lawyer Han Bom becomes the first human aside from Seo Ki Joo to enter the photo studio. Her presence is set to completely change Ki Joo's daily life, as she possesses an ability important to him — the "Safe Zone". 

The safe zone is a protection zone capable of repelling ghostly attacking Ki Joo and neutralizing their powers. Now Ki Joo, who was tormented by ghosts even in broad daylight, suffered from various diseases and was even cursed to not live past the age of thirty-five, sees Han Bom as an important person to him.

As Ki Joo's thirty-fifth birthday approaches, the question lingers as to whether Bom can become his savior.

The Midnight Studio will premiere on March 11. The K-drama will be available to stream on Viki. Watch the trailer here
