editMain
edit- Yeon Woo-jin as Oh Soo-min
- A dutiful and reckless Catholic priest who is a member of 634 Regia. Twenty years prior to the series, Soo-min and his father, along with priest Moon Ki-seon, witnessed the death of his mother at a young age, where she was possessed and killed by a demon due to his father's refusal to believe in exorcism preventing her from receiving one. Under priest Moon's tutelage, he becomes an exorcist.
- Jeong Yu-mi as Ham Eun-ho
- A doctor at Southern Catholic Hospital who lost her faith in God at a young age when her parents died in front of her in an accident, she first encountered Soo-min when her most recent patient turns out to be possessed by an evil entity. Witnessing the exorcisms of both the patient and the subsequent possession of a colleague by the same entity caused her to rethink her beliefs.
- Park Yong-woo as Moon Ki-seon
- A senior Catholic priest who founded 634 Regia, a group of priests that performs exorcisms unofficially while still recognized by the Vatican.
