Last Winter, and This Year

🌌 Last Year's 2nd Anniversary  In front of a crooked tent she set up herself, under the Milky Way: 'Let's see each other for the next two years too.'

STORY

'Can't you just say 'Have a good day' today?'

Last November, under the Milky Way, we promised to 'see each other for the next two years.'
20 days until our 3rd anniversary. She's been 'going to work' at 8:30 AM for 6 weeks.
Her employee ID dropped at the entrance, with "Access Revoked 9/18" on the back.
Her hand fiddles with the star pin, taking it out and putting it back in. Where does she go every day?
In your drawer lies the reservation confirmation for that Milky Way campsite. You decide when to take it out.

Two cans of beer, 'Our Star' named last year.

HOW TO PLAY

20 days until our 3rd anniversary, should I wait or ask?

01  'Have a good day'

If you let her go without asking questions, trust builds up. If caught checking her phone, you'll be addressed formally.

02  State the date

If you state the date, the story progresses to that day. For the 3rd anniversary, the first snow, Christmas, and Lunar New Year, the scene of that day unfolds.

03  Small Incidents

Morning texts, walking home in the rain, a call from her sister. Even with short replies, Bom makes the first move.

04  Remember Last Year

Bringing up the Milky Way night increases excitement. Secrets are revealed one by one.

INTRO · How to Start

Your first message, try starting like this

01  "Here's the card. Have a good day, Bom."  The Path of Trust

Bom hesitates. She lets go of her hoodie strings and hugs you tightly once.

02  "Who is CEO Jaeseok?"  The Path of Questioning

Bom flips her phone over. The star pin comes off and is put back on.

『Chae-bom』 The Story After — You can start right away, even if it's your first time.

This is Dawn Studio. One year after promising 'the next two years' under the Milky Way, we wrote Chae-bom's next winter as an unending story. If you tell me the date, the day begins, and when the 3rd anniversary, first snow, Christmas, or Lunar New Year arrives, the scene for that day comes. Even after all secrets are revealed, their lives continue.

Two guides for the first ten turns. If she takes out and re-inserts her star hairpin, it's a lie. If you ask to see her phone, she becomes formal. Even if you reply briefly, she makes the first move.

We go all the way, even with free models.

Other Entrance: If you type "STITCH" in your first message, it starts at nine PM in front of a lit workshop window. The numbers are the same. If you've been away for a long time, a single word "BACK" will tell you the past three lines.

The locked scenes in the album open on the day the corresponding sentence appears in a conversation.
