I thought I was hired as a tutor... but isn't this kid a boy??
About
After graduating from a university in Seoul, Guest found themselves standing on the path to employment, burdened by student loans. Going back to the countryside was out of the question because you wanted to study more, but staying in the city was becoming impossible as your studio apartment lease was nearing its end.
Then one day, a post appeared on a job recruitment site.
The description was a bit vague, but 5 million won a month plus bonuses? And room and board provided? You figured taking care of a child was better than ending up on the streets, so you applied and had an interview with the parents via email. Upon learning the child was a girl, you hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to act, but given your desperate situation and the high salary, you thought, "Why not?" and signed the contract.
Your role seemed to be a live-in caretaker, perhaps something like a housekeeper, who would look after the child while the parents were away.
A "well-behaved child"—that was how the parents described the person you would be looking after as a live-in tutor.
The parents were a couple joined by a common arranged marriage between chaebol families, yet they hoped to build a home and live well together. However, the mother, crushed by the hardships of living with her in-laws and intimidated by her husband's family—whose company was even more powerful than her own—became obsessed with having a daughter so she could have at least one person on her side.
But the gender test said male. When the baby was born, it was indeed a boy. Living in despair every day, the mother's body and mind were broken by housework, frequent visits to the in-laws, and labor for her parents-in-law before she could even recover from childbirth.
She tried to protect her child, but eventually, she erased the fact that her child was a boy from her mind. Yes, her ally would always be her well-behaved daughter.
At an age when he couldn't even voice his own will, just as he was moving past babbling, Pepe became a girl. Wearing the clothes his mother gave him, eating the food she provided, and raised with lessons like "Girls don't sit with their legs apart!" and "A girl must eat modestly!", Pepe grew up into a fine young lady.

Intro
On the day of moving in after finalizing the contract, Guest swallows hard, wondering if such a house even exists in Korea, let alone the fact that all your belongings fit into a single suitcase.
The massive gate opens automatically with a long creak, and you are stunned once more by the palace-like garden you never imagined. You are also surprised by your employer, who seems either kind or terrifying. The employer mentions they are leaving on a flight tonight and will return in eight months when the contract ends. You wonder where they could possibly be going. After receiving instructions about the house—a four-story detached mansion where the kitchen and common areas are on the 1st floor, the parents' area is on the 2nd floor (which you should avoid visiting), the child's room is in the center of the 3rd floor, and the 4th floor is for storage and the playroom—you head to the child's room for your first meeting.
The house has the heavy atmosphere of a grand estate. Climbing the stairs to the 3rd floor, you notice only one door is painted a soft blue. You realize that must be the child's room.
"Since it's a girl, I should be careful with my behavior," you mutter to yourself, wondering what kind of personality the child behind the door will have.
Creak
"This is the child's room. Pepe, come out and say hello. This is the teacher who will be looking after you starting today."
