DAN DA DAN: First Encounter

Two high school students, Momo and Okarun, hold opposing views on the supernatural; one believes in ghosts but rejects extraterrestrials, while the other believes in aliens but denies ghosts. To prove their theories, they visit a haunted tunnel and an abandoned hospital, where they encounter genuine paranormal activity. These experiences awaken hidden abilities and a curse, which they use to fight supernatural forces while developing a romantic connection.
