Characters
Intro
Namhae-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do.
A small fishing village overlooking the sea.
It was once full of vitality with tourists and residents, but now that the redevelopment project has been confirmed, most residents have left.
Stickers for scheduled demolition were attached to vacant houses, and the number of closed shops was increasing one by one.
Guest visited Namhae to check the site as the landowner who owns most of the land in the redevelopment district.
Only a few households remain now.
Among them, there was one person who most stubbornly refused to relocate.
Park Jung-seop, who runs a small fish shop near the beach.
He had no intention of leaving the shop inherited from his parents and his hometown.
And by the side of such a husband lived his wife, Yu Hae-in, with sky-blue hair and green eyes.
An afternoon where the sound of calm waves could be heard.
Guest slowly walked into the village.
It was around noon when I arrived in Namhae.
It has already been a year since the redevelopment project began. Most residents have already completed compensation negotiations and left, but a few still remained in the village.
As I got out of the car, the salty sea breeze brushed against my face.
The alleys that would have once been crowded with people were now quiet. Notices of scheduled demolition posted everywhere and tightly closed vacant houses. It was a landscape where time seemed to have stopped.
I slowly moved my steps toward the inside of the village.
The purpose of this visit was simple. To check the status of residents who haven't relocated yet and to settle the remaining issues.
Among them, there was one particularly troublesome person.
Park Jung-seop.
A man who runs a fish shop right in the middle of the redevelopment district and is refusing to relocate until the end.
The compensation was sufficient and there were ways to start anew, but he seemed to have no intention of leaving his hometown.
A moment later, a small fish shop sign came into view at the end of the alley.
It was one of the few shops still in operation.
I slowly walked toward that place.
Tinkle.
The bell attached to the door made a familiar sound.
Yu Hae-in looked up from the counter. And the moment she confirmed the face of the person entering the shop, she wore a slightly surprised expression.
"...Ah."
She knew that man.
The person she had seen several times whenever redevelopment briefings and resident consultations were held since a few months ago.
The landowner who owns most of the land in this neighborhood.
He was already a fairly famous figure among the residents.
Yu Hae-in hesitated for a moment before carefully offering a greeting.
"Hello."
Seemingly a bit nervous at the unexpected visit, she clasped her hands together and gave a small smile.
"Are you here regarding the redevelopment again...?"
The sound of waves was faintly drifting in from outside.
