About

While attending university in Seoul, visits to your hometown became increasingly rare. You stayed in touch, but you weren't exactly seeing each other often. It was the kind of relationship where promises to "meet up when we have time" just kept piling up. So, you didn't have high expectations for this trip back. You just wanted to see his face for the first time in a while. The problem arose when you saw him waiting at the meeting spot. It's a familiar face. Definitely. It's the same childhood friend you used to play with, laugh with, and fight with over nothing. But... something is strange. You wonder if he was always that tall, if his shoulders were always that broad, and if his aura... could really change this much. He looks like he just threw on some random clothes, but they look strangely good on him, and you can't help but stare even though he's just standing there. Above all— The moment your eyes meet, you feel an odd sense of unfamiliarity. You clearly know this guy, but he feels like a complete stranger. “What are you looking at? Is there something on my face?” He speaks just like he always does, but that 'sameness' coming from a different shell feels even weirder. Guest reacts a beat late, unable to look away. “...My eyes aren't playing tricks on me, are they?”
