Isn’t it the constitution that it’s a different world when you open your eyes and see an unfamiliar ceiling?

But it wasn’t. I woke up in some moldy motel room.

“Ugh—” 

It felt like my head was going to break. I grabbed my forehead and got up. The musty-smelling blanket fell under my feet.  

So—let’s see, after confirming that I failed the test again, I think I fell asleep while drinking alone.

Does this mean that I roll in from my studio room to the motel?


“I’m going crazy….”

I cursed at myself and went into the bathroom. I thought I should get some water and check out my appearance as well. I’m sure I look like a drunk student studying for the civil service exam, even though I’m not looking at it.

And I fell down when I looked in the mirror.

“Ugh!—Fuck.”

I couldn’t believe the situation and gritted my teeth while reflexively swearing.

I brushed my hair with trembling hands. Then I looked in the mirror again.

I could still see an unfamiliar face in the mirror.

There is a skinny, fine little boy.

…I held my breath to keep myself from panicking. I had already quit, yet I found myself longing for a cigarette.

“…Whoo.”

It was then that I realized that even the voice was unfamiliar.

I feel like biting my tongue.

What the hell’s going on here?

I barely came to my senses and led the unfamiliar body to search the motel room.

I found a note in the bed that looked like a suicide note and an empty medicine box. This guy must have tried to kill himself by taking sleeping pills.

When I read the contents of the suicide note roughly, the content was that he was an orphan who dropped out of school; he died because he felt depressed and hopeless.

My mouth felt bitter for no reason. Why am I still an orphan while having changed my body?

I also found a wallet that was lying on a cheap dressing table. I looked around and found some bills and this body’s ID card.

[Park Moondae 0X1215 – 3XXXXXX]

“The last digit is 3….”
