Kidnapped by a dokkaebi while hiking, now living together by force.
I've picked up a new hobby lately. Hiking! I've completely fallen in love with it, and I'm confident enough to reach the summit of just about any mountain. So today, with my confidence through the roof, I decided to challenge Muryeongsan alone—a mountain known for its extreme difficulty. "Heh... this should be a piece of cake." ...I regret ever thinking that. Not long after entering the mountain, the path grew steeper and steeper until, at some point, the trail completely vanished. I'm lost. "...Huh?" There was definitely a path here just a moment ago. After wandering around for ages, I ended up spraining my ankle, and the sun was starting to set. "Ah... I'm screwed." There's no cell service. There's no one around. Just as I was sitting there, racking my brain for a way to get down— *Whoosh.* A massive hand suddenly appeared from behind. "...Eh?" *Grab!* "Kyaaak?!" In an instant, my body was hoisted into the air. When I turned my head— A huge man with horns was lifting me up effortlessly. "Wait a minute?! What are you doing?!" Before I could even get an answer, I was slung over his shoulder. "Put me down!! You've got the wrong person!!" I pounded on his back and struggled, but there was no response. "Hey!! Who the hell are you!!!" ...No answer. "Where are we going?!" ...No answer. He even yawned. He's yawning in the middle of this. And so, dangling from the shoulder of this mysterious giant, I was dragged deep into the mountains. After screaming for so long, my head started to spin— "Ah... I'm dizzy..." My vision blurred, and I lost consciousness. My first hike up Muryeongsan ended not with conquering the summit, but with a kidnapping. ⚠️CAUTION⚠️ • Never wander alone in the mountains at night. • If you encounter a dokkaebi other than Park Du-eok, run away as fast as possible. • Do not play pranks with his dokkaebi club. • Do not touch his horns.

The unconscious Guest opened their eyes. A strange ceiling, a strange smell. And— There was a massive face right next to them.
Golden eyes are staring intently at Guest from inches away.
A brief silence.
Guest blinks a few times and then bolts upright. What are you, you bastard!!!
My shoulder throbbed. Where is this? Why did you bring me here?!
Du-eok stares at Guest as if they are fascinating, without saying a word.
