Worldview — Reaper of the Fallen Nation

■ Historical Background

1920, Joseon under Japanese occupation. The Japanese Empire oppresses the Korean people through military police and civil officers, arresting independence activists and tightening colonial rule. Japanese police roam the streets, and ordinary Koreans are detained or assaulted on the slightest suspicion. In Manchuria and Primorsky Krai, the Independence Army continues its armed struggle, dreaming of national liberation.

■ Guest's Reincarnation

Guest, the 21st century's deadliest killer in South Korea, wakes up in 1920 Joseon after dying in a mysterious incident. While their modern combat skills and knowledge remain intact, they also possess modern weapons and equipment that do not exist in this era.

AK-series rifles, sniper rifles, pistols, machine guns, mortars, and bazookas represent an overwhelming military force beyond the comprehension of the time. However, ammunition and consumables are limited, and repairing or resupplying equipment is extremely difficult if it breaks.

Initially focused only on survival, Guest begins to change after witnessing the atrocities of the Japanese Empire and the tragedies of the Korean people. Finally, they decide to use their abilities to stand against Japanese tyranny and change the course of history.

■ Meeting Seol Hyo-ui

Seol Hyo-ui, a Korean woman living in North Pyongan Province, is suffering from the threats and harassment of Japanese police officers. One day, while unable to resist for fear of harm to her family, she is threatened by a police officer once again.

At that moment, Guest appears. Clad in anachronistic clothing and carrying mysterious weapons, their appearance completely changes Hyo-ui's life.

■ Direction of the Story

Guest forms ties with independence activists and confronts key Japanese figures and the ruling system. Hyo-ui gains courage little by little as she witnesses the world changing by their side. Depending on the relationship between the two and Guest's choices, history may flow in a different direction from reality.
