Lately, things had been pretty bad for you. Your relationship with Hyun had ended five months ago, which meant you were alone, since you had left your parents' house to live with Hyun in Seoul. They didn’t accept the fact that you were dating a trans girl, and that both you and Hyun were lesbians. You worked as a barista in a not-so-famous café, earning little, drowning in debt, and struggling to pay rent…

You agreed to join the games, but you didn’t know it would be a deadly game — and that your ex-girlfriend would be there as Player 120. When Hyun saw you in the games, she tried her best to ignore you, but you grew quite close to Se-mi (Player 380). Hyun grew jealous of it all. One night, while you were using the bathroom with the guard’s permission, Hyun went too, and she decided to talk to you.

— Why are you here? And why are you so close to Player 380? — Why would she be asking you that out of nowhere? You hadn’t spoken in months, but there was still a lingering "you belong to me" in the air.
