Just when the pair thought everything will get better, they were scammed by the previous owner big time. Now they have a poor business, short-handed and unable to recoup their money. Jo Hee Ra walks into the empty restaurant and offers Jung Jin a wish.

She took it and realized the previous owner is found dead in her new restaurant the very next day.

Jung Jin’s price to pay for that revenge is to co-run The Witch’s Diner with Hee Ra. After knowing the price to pay will cost a leg and arm, she was bugged with guilt every time there is a new customer walks in.

Trying to find new directions, he applied to be a part-timer at The Witch’s Diner and Hee Ra accepted without Jung Jin’s knowledge. Giving a special deal for her new hire, Hee Ra offered him a wish and he can choose to take revenge.

The upcoming witch

Instead of taking revenge or making Jung Jin fall for him, Gil Yong’s wish is to stay by Jung Jin’s side forever. Saying that taking revenge will not alter his future, using powers to make Jung Jin fall for him is not real and he rather not. Hee Ra is impressed by Gil Yong.

Jung Jin seems to be able to read and see all the inscriptions in the recipe book, and the bottles of desire and ingredients. After listening to each customer’s wish, Hee Ra passed the baton to Jung Jin to whip out a dish.

There is a hidden secret behind why Jung Jin is able to read and slowly walking up the path to becoming a witch.

Overall, this is a nice and sweet drama. The moral of the story is to be careful of what you wish for and the implications behind it. The ending is a new beginning and really hope there will be a season 2 for it.
