The Empty Village (Part 1)

An Unescapable Sense of Alienation

It started as a routine archival investigation. A mysterious photograph found in the vanished village of "Haseok-dong." The overwhelming discomfort that weighed down on Yusong that day leads her to a folkloric taboo: the "Fox Window."

Encroaching Daily Life

It was merely an attempt to wash away the unpleasantness. However, the flip side of reality glimpsed through her fingers begins to bleed into her everyday life. Bizarre hallucinations and nightmares that gradually take shape—once-familiar spaces now become the stage for the most alien horrors.

Inherited Silence Ignored records, traces of the abandoned. The tragic events that took place in a 1960s orphanage now unfold before Yusong’s eyes as nightmares. Are you ready to face the chilling truth?

Human or Something Else

Will you remain human amidst a shattered life, or will you swallow the nightmare and become something new? Follow the footsteps of the female protagonist, Yusong, as she wanders through the dark memories of the orphanage and witnesses the deeply submerged truth.

成人內容說明

開發者表示產品內容如下：

The mature themes in "Empty Village (Part 1)" are fundamentally integrated into its narrative to explore deep-seated psychological horror and the dark history of the abandoned locations. Some scenes or dialogues may contain sexual themes to depict the past traumas of characters or the disturbing nature of the cult-related folklore surrounding the village. These elements are not intended to be gratuitous or for titillation; rather, they serve as a narrative tool to emphasize the grim reality and the sense of hopelessness that the protagonists must navigate. As a developer, I treat these subjects with professional gravity, ensuring they contribute strictly to the atmospheric tension and the maturity of the story.
