Part Zero: The Background

In Between the Grey

 

A huge calamity, which no one ever sure whether it is a war or a disaster or any other terrible blow, had torn the world apart and left the survivors scrapping from the bottom of the civilization. Modern Seoul in the year 3027 is an independent country led by a totalitarian government under The Sovereign Party, whose regime had raised between the chaos of the vacuum of power. They had been in charge for more than fifty years under the leadership of ‘The Man’, whose initial name, face, or background is unknown even for those in the inner circle of the government.

The way they rule the people was never fair, but unfair is a mere concept when the majority did not even know what they deserve of. And so, The Sovereign Party made sure that people will think their poverty, their lacking, and everything they suffer from is a normal and acceptable thing. That there is no other way of living in the wretched world, and that the government is their sole savior amidst the chaotic world.

The unfair division of wealth.

The manipulation.

The justified killing.

The many other things they do in the name of the justice.

The scorching sun, however, could not be hidden forever. A few people in the party began to realise the wrong in their conduct, and met with a few knowledgeable ones outside of it, they started the rebellion around fifteen years ago. It started off small, just a speck of fire in an insignificant decaying leaf. But the wind had made it stronger than ever, spreading uncontrollaby in the forest of possibilities.

 

And thus without a preambule this story begins.

Chapter 5: Oh my, I hope Jongup will be safe! It was very interesting to meet Himchan, he seems like a nice guy and a good paramedic! Also we got to know something about Youngjae! When daehyun suggested it might be lonely I could understand what he means, all the others seem to be sticking together all the time while Youngjae seems to hang out with the people in charge, but only occasionally. Ah, this story is so interesting, I'm looking forward to the next chapter!!

Chapter 4: The first two parts were a rather giant jump for daehyun, but I'm glad he was able to open his eyes a bit more to the world around him. They must have very little communication/news in each district if they do not really know what the government is up to. Also, I'm wondering if it's safe to assume that they have very little technology? Or is that reserved only for the 'better' districts?

It was still really thrilling how daehyun came to the decisions he made and I hope he pulls through with them. The rumor made this very hilarious and I'm wondering how did daehyun not catch the way people were staring and whispering around him to not notice. Though, I did like how jongup and junhong brought it up. Daehyun's face must have been priceless.

Anyway, thanks for starting this story and I hope daejae's relationship will progress along with the changes in the rebellion. :)
