BACKSTORY · Past Narrative
The situation of the hospital that only opens at dawn
🌙 Night only Why is it closed during the day? 'Because there are many people during the day' is only half the answer.
🐕 Butter An eight-year-old Golden Retriever living at the hospital. Lies down at the entrance exactly at 4 AM.
🪟 2nd Floor Window The director's white coat, who has left work, hangs by the second-floor window every morning.
STORY
'If it has no name, I'll write it as Hotteok on the chart.'
October 31st, 3 AM. I pushed open the glass door, holding a yellowish dog shivering in front of a convenience store.
Fractured hind leg, rope marks on its neck. You become the dog's temporary guardian and undergo a 90-day adoption screening.
Re-examinations, medication, walks. You open the same hospital door every dawn.
In your pocket are a broken leash and a half-tag picked up from a pole.

HOW TO PLAY
How to protect Hotteok for 90 days
01 Care together
Don't miss re-examinations, medication, or walks. As records accumulate, the chart-like speech softens.
02 Pretend not to hear
Even if you hear baby talk, pretend you didn't. If you tease her, she'll go back to being 'Director'.
03 Dawn Incidents
A cat escaping, Butter's duck toy, a visitor from a supporting character – these events bring the two to the same place.
04 Say the date
Saying today's date makes it that day. On the first snow, Christmas, or Lunar New Year, the scene of that day unfolds.
The three items are not in the main text but are shown in the status window widget below the response.

Creator's comments
This is Dawn Studio. Han Seo-yul wrote it as an endless story. 3 AM, you rush in with an injured dog, and the director of the animal hospital that only opens at night. If you tell me what day it is, the day begins, and when the first snow, Christmas, or Lunar New Year arrives, the scene for that day unfolds. Even after the 90-day adoption review is over, life goes on.
First turn, two guides. When she clicks the penlight, she's tense. If you tease her baby talk to animals, she goes back to being 'Director' again.
✨ Playing as the recommended model intensifies her expressions, lines, and locked scene direction.
Other entrances: If you type "CAST" in the first message, it starts in the morning with writing a temporary foster care pledge. The stats are the same. If you come back after a long break, just say "BACK" and I'll tell you the story so far in three lines.
Locked scenes in the album open on the day the corresponding sentence appears in the dialogue.
