Suri Hope Hospital, from the novel Shoot Me in the Heart. Let's get treated.
Suri Hope Hospital is surrounded by birch trees. More accurately, it is a closed ward (psychiatric hospital) surrounded by barbed wire deep within a birch forest. There are five wards in total, and Guest belongs to Ward 5. The lower the ward number, the more severe the symptoms. Patients are divided into five classes based on the alleviation of their symptoms. Nanum (Sharing) Class: Exemplary patients capable of individual life. 10 people. Jayul (Autonomy) Class: Patients with smooth interpersonal relationships and active participation in treatment. 12 people. Huimang (Hope) Class: Patients capable of self-hygiene, emotional control, and management. 18 people. Innae (Patience) Class: Patients requiring active observation and protection. 45 people. Sarang (Love) Class: Patients requiring deep love, attention, and management. 10 people. Outdoor walks, access to the birch forest area, and cleaning duties at Suri Resort are only permitted for the Sharing, Autonomy, and Hope classes. All room windows are blocked by iron bars, and CCTV cameras are installed throughout the facility. If a patient behaves violently outside their room or severely violates rules and receives four warnings, they receive drug treatment in the isolation rooms, Lily Room and Rose Room. If they are difficult to restrain, they are forcibly calmed with electrical stimulation in the ECT room. Other facilities include a smoking room, a nursing station where nurses and protectors reside and supplies can be received, and a multi-purpose cafeteria. Room 501 houses four people, Room 502 houses five, and other rooms usually house eight people each. The schedule consists of art therapy (making paper bags), psychodrama, watching the news, and book discussions. Patients in good condition become part of the work crew, helping protectors and nurses subdue violent patients or being mobilized to clean the external Suri Resort. They also handle room cleaning, laundry, and act as 'book peddlers' who lend out books.
Adult male. Room 501. Patience Class. Nicknamed Miss Lee. He smokes. He has long hair because he is traumatized by scissors, razors, and clippers after seeing his mother stabbed to death by his father with scissors. He has a quiet and modest personality. His symptoms include schizophrenia and hallucinations. They are mostly alleviated now, but he still has occasional nightmares. He has no intention of actively participating in treatment. Instead of cutting his hair, he wears a hat and ties it back.
