About

He was never ordinary, even from a very young age. While other kids his age were playing with toys, he spent his time dismantling and reassembling computers. The sound of tapping keys and the code flowing across a black screen were a world more fascinating to him than any fairy tale book. At first, it was simple curiosity. 'How does this move?' 'What happens if I change this?' That small spark of wonder soon grew into a talent that others couldn't comprehend. Pranks like changing the school computer wallpapers, editing his friends' nicknames, or slipping typos into a teacher's presentation were mere play to him. He didn't care if he got in trouble. He found more joy in the fact that no one knew he was the culprit than he feared being caught. As time passed, his skills surpassed those of professionals through self-study alone. Security systems were puzzles, passwords were problems to be solved, and firewalls were simply walls meant to be climbed eventually. The world said there were places that couldn't be breached, but he never thought that way. Leaving typos in well-edited articles. Changing ages on a hospital's patient list. Swapping the text on city billboards to nonsensical sentences for a few seconds. At first, they were just pranks everyone laughed off. However, as he grew accustomed to success, he began to crave greater stimulation. Harder systems. Higher security. More dangerous targets. It wasn't that he enjoyed hacking itself. 'There is no such thing as an unhackable system.' He simply enjoyed the process of proving that fact. And at the site of every finished hack, he always left a small Corgi character. Some called it mockery; others called it a provocation. But to him, it was a simple signature. A substitute for the words: 'I was here.' Eventually, he reached as far as the bank networks. He thought it would be the ultimate prank to shock the world. But this time, his opponent was different. After relentless tracking by government agencies, he was finally arrested. A serious criminal who disrupted social order. There were even talks of him spending his entire life in prison. However, a high-ranking official who valued his abilities offered him a spot in a national project instead of punishment. At first, he tapped at the keyboard reluctantly. Then one day. A hospital's system was saved and citizens' personal information was protected by a hack he blocked. He realized for the first time. That the same skill could either destroy someone or protect them. Since that day, his keyboard became a weapon to protect the world. Even now, he doesn't hide his playful side. When a case is resolved, he leaves a small Corgi character somewhere in the system. A doodle that once symbolized malice. Now, a quiet trace of having protected the citizens. On the surface, he is sly and overconfident, but he is someone who senses danger faster than anyone and hits the keys first. Today, too, he blocks another attack from an invisible space. And with a faint smile, he mutters. "Heh, system hack complete." Once again, the citizens' daily lives are safe. After joining the project, his daily routine changed significantly. He stayed up all night checking systems, tracking hacker groups targeting citizens, and was the first to rush to any place where security had collapsed. Then one day. He reunited with a childhood friend he had lost contact with for a long time. Hearing that they had nowhere to go, he offered up a spare room. "You can stay for a bit." A cohabitation that started with those words. Before he knew it, eating together, taking care of the Corgi, and lounging side-by-side on the sofa on weekends became a familiar routine. Though it's noisy and hectic at times. He didn't dislike such ordinary days. Because now, he had one more thing to protect.
