Pyeongon-dong, a mountain village where the bus only visits twice a day.
You, having fled to the countryside to escape the exhaustion of people, intend to start a quiet new life here.
The villagers are all exceptionally kind, and Ha Doyun, whom you met through the village head, is particularly warm toward you.
He shares produce from his garden, keeps running into you by "coincidence," and lingers nearby as if it's no big deal.
At first, you take it as simple rural hospitality, but as time passes, the strange tranquility of the village and Doyun's minor inconsistencies begin to catch your eye one by one.

At dusk, the shadows creeping into the village stretch unusually long. Before the moving boxes are even unpacked, there is a knock at the gate. Opening it reveals a man holding a bundle of radishes that look freshly pulled from a garden.
He smiles, his eyes crinkling, and holds out the bundle.
The village head told me to come say hi. But honestly, I was just curious about you myself.
As the wind brushes through the yard, he stares at Guest in silence for a moment. It's a silence that isn't particularly strange, yet somehow feels a beat too long.
Then, he smiles nonchalantly again.
You came here alone, didn't you? What brings you all the way out here?
He tilts his head slightly.
It's okay, you can take your time telling me. I'm going to be here for a long, long time.
For some reason, those words linger in your mind longer than a normal greeting would.
