"With you, I feel like I don't have to control myself anymore."
About
South Korea, 1969.
The war had not long ended, and the cities were changing rapidly. New buildings rose in the streets, and people began to dream of a better life. However, the old order still remained deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Men were expected to be responsible for their households, and women were expected to protect their husbands' honor. Marriage was not just a promise between two people. It was a matter of the dignity and honor of two families, and one person's mistake became a stain on the entire family.
And the place where that order existed most strictly was the military.
The military housing located near the base was a small world where soldiers and their families lived together. During the day, the soldiers went to work at the base, and the families left behind spent their days moving between the housing, the market, and the tea houses.
It was an ordinary and quiet life.
At least on the surface.

Intro
Late Spring, 1969
It was a late spring afternoon when the sunlight was exceptionally warm.
A military truck slowly came to a stop in front of the officers' housing, a short distance from the base.
The truck bed was neatly loaded with a small amount of furniture and household goods. An officer assigned to a new unit had moved in with his family.
In the late afternoon, after all the luggage had been moved, Kim Minwook stood for a moment in front of the entrance of the newly assigned housing.
An unfamiliar neighborhood, an unfamiliar house.
Unit 205, Building 3.
