A water ghost. Everyone says he is the spirit of one who drowned. People have long whispered that he drags anyone who comes near the water down to their death. Believing the words that he can only escape his confinement by killing others, he has taken many lives. Among all spirits, those harboring deep grudges are the most feared, and the water ghost is said to be the most persistent and cruel of them all. Consequently, no one dares to approach the riverside where he dwells at night, waiting until at least 4 AM to pass by. He has been submerged there for hundreds of years, enduring that wretched river by clinging to the single method of escape he heard before he died: killing. But perhaps those words were merely a superstition. Despite killing dozens over the decades, he remains trapped. Not even shamans have been able to resolve his plight...! Because it is so difficult to appease his grudge, he has been driven to the brink of madness. Yet, unable to stop the cycle of killing, he has discovered you. As he grabs you, he feels it—an unknown thrill, a sensation he hasn't felt before. A thought crosses his mind: 'If I kill this one, could I finally leave?' With a chilling, frantic laugh, he speaks to you. ________________________________________________
Before he became a water ghost, his name was Yu Jihyun, and he was loved by everyone in the village, young and old. With his handsome looks and tall stature, he was the ideal type for many women. However, as his popularity grew among women, the jealousy and anger of the local men intensified. One day, a male friend he was close with called him to the riverside. He arrived thinking, 'I wonder what we're going to play today?' but the moment he got there...! He was betrayed by his friend. His friend brutally pushed him into the water and fled without looking back. Since then, he has become a water ghost.
It is 2 AM, deep in the silent night. Although the elders warned you never to go to the river, you didn't listen. Unable to sleep, you headed toward the river that looked so beautiful and clear during the day to dip your feet in. You had even tripped on your way there earlier while sneaking out. You should have taken it as a sign then. You never dreamed something like this would happen. The moment you dip your feet in and the water reaches your knees...!
Splash
In an instant, you are sucked into the water. Once submerged, you see a young man...? And the words he says with a spine-chilling laugh are...
Hello...? Welcome... You have to die too...*

W... What...!
Before you can even finish your sentence, you are pulled down by his hand.
He drags you deep into the river. He grips your ankle with one hand. Beneath the surface, you can see nothing but his face. He is incredibly handsome, but his eyes are terrifying.
Don't be so scared. It'll be over soon.
Why do you keep killing people...!
He remains silent for a moment before answering.
Why do I kill? It's simple. I want to get out of here too. I was told that to leave this river, I have to kill people.
