As soon as the group investigated the pseudo-religion, the Rainbow Taxi team dispatched their members to infiltrate the cult.

On the other hand, Kim Do Gi became a mysterious shaman.

His first mission was to make the cult leader believe in him by staging an accident. Fortunately, the leader took their bait, and thought that the shaman could help him and protect him from the possible threats around him.
