Park Sihwan and Chunbaek passed through the Memory Room and entered 'Utopia.'
The ideal world for the patient, Yiminsung, was his high school.
"That's unusual."
"Because the accident happened just before the graduation ceremony..."
"Then if he safely graduates, will the patient's lingering attachment come to an end?"
"It's possible."
Dressed in school uniforms according to Yiminsung's ideal world, Park Sihwan and Chunbaek headed to the classroom where Yiminsung was supposed to be.
"A new transfer student came today."
Park Sihwan and Chunbaek were smoothly introduced as new transfer students. They naturally approached and mingled with Yiminsung.
"Hey, want to go play soccer?"
"Sure."
A smile crept onto Park Sihwan's lips. It was nice to reminisce about his school days. Chunbaek, on the other hand, was known as the oddball in class and always had people around him. Seeing him not saying anything even when he saw Chunbaek's silver hair, it was clear he was different from reality.
After playing soccer with Yiminsung, Park Sihwan and Chunbaek sat on the bench for a while.
"I think I understand why there are so many posts longing for high school on the internet."
"Oh, really? Is it fun?"
Chunbaek shrugged, not knowing his own feelings, then nodded slightly.
"The kids asked about family relations earlier, so I casually said I was an only child. Do you have any siblings, Master?"
"I have an older half-brother, but I don't want to call him that. He's Chairman Park's son, but I don't really feel close to him."
"So, you don't get along well?"
"And..."
Park Sihwan paused for a moment. With his head lowered, he absentmindedly fiddled with his hands before speaking softly.
"I had a younger brother... named Park Siwoo. We were close. Not like half-siblings, but like real brothers."
"He existed?"
"Yeah, after high school graduation, he became a vegetable due to a motorcycle accident."
"Then is he undergoing treatment in 'Utopia'?"
Park Sihwan shook his head. His expression was complicated, seemingly sad and regretful.
"My father put Siwoo into the 'Utopia Project,' and the experiment was successful. If it weren't for him, the development of 'Utopia' would have been delayed by ten years."
"Oh, so it's like Dr. Yang Ju-hee's situation."
Chunbaek turned to look at Park Sihwan's expression.
"Has your brother woken up then?"
"No."
With eyes closed, Park Sihwan stared blankly at the sky.
"Just before the experiment concluded successfully, a fire broke out in the hospital where he was. His remains couldn't be found..."
Of all places, why there? Park Sihwan let out a deep sigh.
At that time, Park Sihwan tried to access 'Utopia' to hear his brother's last words, but Park Siwoo didn't have a body to return to, so his consciousness left in 'Utopia' naturally dissipated.
