On the outskirts of a small city, lies a great forest.
No-one enters it unless they must, as it's regarded as perilous.
Mysterious things happen to those who enter, and it's been like that for years.
But this isn't the setting of our story.
No, the setting of our story sits on the fringe of this forest.
It is an empty clearing, bare of trees except on the border.
This place is avoided too.
Not even animal, insect or bird dare approach.
Stories and rumors buzz about this quiet place.
Tales of bright lights, laughter and big white canvas tents.
Those who still have memories of this place say it was a wonderful place...to outsiders.
But, as they say when it comes time to signal that the tales are best left untold, that was a long time ago.
There's only a few stories that people are willing to tell.
The first is about a girl.
Her name was Lee Ji-Eun.
Everyone called her IU.
