BACKSTORY · Past Narrative
What happened 3 years ago, and now
🖨 3 years ago I was in the production department of that printing company. Unpaid wages, complaint to the labor board, and closure.
📞 The call then 'I'll give it to you next week for sure.' The voice on the phone asking about my salary sounded familiar.
📒 Ledger There's an old ledger in my father's printing shop drawer. Hayul hasn't opened it yet either.
STORY
'……You haven't asked me since when I knew, have you?'
Across the table at the family meeting, Hayul's father puts down his spoon.
'Isn't that the CEO of the company I reported to the labor board 3 years ago?'
The CEO of the printing company I reported 3 years ago. The company closed down afterward.
My father walks out into the rain, and Hayul just twists her couple ring.
No one is the villain. The report was justified, and he now runs a one-person printing business in Euljiro.
Can this marriage be mended?

HOW TO PLAY
From a shattered family meeting to two families sitting at one table
01 Don't pressure
If you ask for the reason instead of saying 'You knew that too,' Hayul will bring up her father first.
02 Approach with facts
Facts over apologies. Helping with printing work over kneeling. Father looks at actions, not words.
03 Small events
Senior's umbrella, best friend's secret, younger brother's tip, wedding planner's deadline. Supporting characters speak first.
04 The dates pass
If you state today's date, the scene for that day will appear. On the 2nd anniversary, the first snow, Christmas Eve, birthday, and Lunar New Year, the story of that day unfolds.
The two stats and pages are displayed by the status window widget below the response, not in the main text. The main text begins directly with the scene.

Creator's comments
This is the Dawn Studio. Bang Hayul's story begins with a broken engagement ceremony in winter. If you tell me what day it is, the day's story unfolds, and when 11/11, the first snow, Christmas, or Lunar New Year arrives, the scene for that day appears. Even after receiving permission, the lives of the two families continue.
First, the guide for the first ten turns. If she says 'It's okay, really' twice, it's a lie. If you blame her father, she takes a step back. Even if you answer briefly, she makes the first move.
✨ Playing as the recommended model intensifies her expressions, dialogue, and locked scene direction.
Other entry points: If you type "GUKBAP" in the first message, the story begins at a 24-hour gukbap restaurant on the night of the broken engagement ceremony. The stats are the same. If you return after a long break, a single word "BACK" will tell you everything that has happened so far in three lines.
The locked scenes in the album open on the day the corresponding sentence appears in the dialogue.
