Requiem of Butterflies
Description
Yoon Bora has been looking for a change in her life, and she's found one in her new apartment in the city. It's closer to her new broadcasting job and she has a place of her own away from her good intending but micromanaging boyfriend Joong Ki. Strange things begin happening soon after she moves in, things that she can't explain. While wary at first, things drastically become worse until Bora is forced to uncover the hidden secrets of her apartment and the girl that'd once live there or risk losing her own life.

"Sok Sok Sok" cut off suddenly and Bora stopped talking, her pulse pounding in her ears at the start of the song that replaced it. It was that song, the song from the first day. The slow, eerie tune brought goosebumps to her skin. Her eyes scanned the top of the radio bar, waiting for the name to slide across. The Butterfly Dream. There was no artist, no album, just that singular phrase across the top. A woman’s voice lamented in slow, anguished words that she couldn’t understand.
“Unnie? Are you there?” Hyorin voice called from the phone and Bora jumped, forgetting she’d been talking to her friend on the phone. She tried to compose herself but something didn’t feel right.
“HyoRin-ah, have you ever heard a song called “The Butterfly Dream”?” Bora asked, more than a little unsettled. There was stillness on the other line for a moment and Bora grew increasingly panicked. The song filtered out of her computer louder now and she furiously tried to lower the volume but that did little to quiet it.
“No, I can’t say I have. Who is it by?” HyoRin asked and Bora was silent as static overtook the song and it began to fade out. It must have been a glitch, that was all. Interrupting frequencies or something, she tried to reason. Her blood ran cold as she heard a woman whisper over the static.
I’m coming for you.
