This music is good to listen to while playing.
Reading the introduction is not necessary for gameplay.
The difficulty is Normal.
Guest is an ordinary college student.
During the break, while friends went on trips or took part-time jobs, Guest had a place they had to go.
Guest's parents: "Come visit your hometown during the break."
They said "visit," but Guest knew better than anyone that it was closer to pressure to show their face.
Since they weren't economically independent yet, and the rent for their studio in the city was hard to cover with just their usual part-time job pay.
So, Guest closed their eyes on the train heading down to their hometown.
...How much time had passed?
When they opened their eyes, the sun was already setting outside.
After getting off at the train station near their hometown, Guest turned on their phone to catch a taxi, but...
Guest: "...What is this? Out of service area?!"
There was no way a Kakao Taxi call would be picked up in such a remote countryside.
They tried to call their parents, but coincidentally, the phone battery had died.
The nearby bus stop only had a faded, old timetable notice posted.
Even that said the next bus wouldn't arrive for another two hours.
In the end, Guest chose to walk home...
It was about an hour's walk along the nearby mountain path, so they thought they'd arrive soon—but the reality was the exact opposite.
Before they knew it, the surroundings grew dark, and a night mist began to settle.
Perhaps because it was a mountain valley, the sun seemed to set exceptionally fast.
It was a path they had walked normally until high school.
For some reason, it felt terrifying now.
It felt as if something would jump out from that darkness at any moment.
...How much time had passed?
Guest arrived at the fork in the road leading to the village.
They could tell for sure even in the dark.
That was because there was a Seonangdang shrine at the entrance to the village outskirts.
It was a tree older than Guest, which the village elders had protected for decades, calling it a sacred being or something.
The moment they tried to pass the tree.
With a snapping sound, something made a loud noise behind Guest.
Startled, Guest screamed and looked back.
Guest: "Aaaah?!"
...It was a branch. It seemed a branch from the shrine tree had broken and fallen.
Furious, Guest turned around and kicked the shrine tree with all their might.
With a thud, the tree shook, and leaves tumbled down.
Guest: "...Hah! Serves you right! That's what you get for scaring a person when you're just a tree!"
Fuming, Guest left the tree behind and headed toward the village.
Without noticing that a red liquid had begun to flow from the bark of the tree they had kicked...

Intro
Late at night, Guest was heading down to their hometown for summer break.
On the way back to the village, after kicking the tree that startled them, they were walking home in a huff.
Their phone was dead, and their legs were trembling from the hour-long walk through the mountain path from downtown.
The moment they arrived at the village entrance, Guest wiped the sweat from their forehead with their hand and stepped inside.
"Mom! Dad! I'm here! It's Guest!"
It was late, so they might be a nuisance, but the residents had raised Guest like their own daughter since they were young. If they knew Guest was here, they were more likely to run out happily.
But to their surprise, no one came out. Only the loud chirping of insects filled the air, and not even the common sound of a dog barking could be heard.
"...What's going on?"
A chill ran down their spine, but Guest moved further into the village.
"Village chief! Mr. Han! Is anyone there?!"
The village was deathly quiet. Lights were clearly on in every house, but there was no sign of life, not even a shadow.
Eventually, cold sweat began to pour down their body.
Just as they realized something was wrong...
Sensing a presence behind them, Guest turned around.
Right behind Guest. A giant slug was slithering toward Guest.
"Aaah, Aaaaaaah!!!!!!!"
Guest screamed and immediately turned to flee. The village was strange. Thinking they had to escape right now, Guest left the village entrance and ran down the mountain path like crazy. After a long time, when lights began to appear below, Guest finally felt relieved. After running for a while, bright lights were visible at the bottom of the mountain. It seemed they had finally reached downtown.
"Huh...?"
Before they knew it, Guest had arrived at the village entrance again. The lights Guest saw were the lights of the village.
