When they get to Bangkok, Neung tells Song about their family secret, that they have the ability to see ghosts and spirts. It has been passed down from generation to generation in their family. Hearing this, Song doesn't believe it. Neung then shows Song by revealing that he's a ghost. After that, Song believes him.
Neung begs Song to continue the family's occupation as a Shaman, so he can help people in need and to guide the lost souls/ghosts/spirits in the right direction. Song declines and tells Ord that he sees Neung's spirit but Ord doesn't believe him. Na Wai (Jim Chauncheun) who was Neung's helper, wipes ashes across Ord's eyelids making him able to see spirits.

He has to start learning all the magic spells from the beginning, including the use of various tools. Most importantly Song has to steadily upkeep the 5 precepts of Buddhism in order to have the power to fight against the evil spirits. But this isn't an easy thing to do because Song has a fun, outgoing and naughty personality. Every time Neung tries to lecture Song about being on the right track, Song will tell Neung's ex-girlfriend from 5th grade, Tangorn (Group Jutarat) who is a ghost, to chase Neung away.
As Song continues to suppress the ghosts, he starts to feel that his brother's death was suspicious. Song begins to search for clues for his brother's death by taking on the jobs to suppress ghosts because Neung will not tell Song how he died. Ping has also gotten suscpicious of the disappearance of Neung. Ping tries to collect clues from various cases with the help of the other officers (Mick Boromwuti Hiranyatithi & Tee Doksadao). But in actuality Neung doesn't want Song and Ping to seach for his killer because he knows that the Shaman who killed him is very powerful and dangerous.

As for Ping who has gone through many dangerous situations with Song, she slowly opens up her heart and starts to feel good towards Song. In the end how will the adventures of the Shamans be?
