The year is 2087 and Choi MinHo is dying.

In 2019 South Korea invaded North Korea under pressure from the U.S. government. Koreans from the North and South perished in what is known today as the biggest war crime in World History. The Sterile Bombing of Korea. In an attempt to enrage South Koreans and make them more willing to fight the North, the U.S. special operations staged the test of a new bomb in Seoul, with the plan to frame North Korea for the attack, and justify the U.S. invasion and eventual occupation of Russia via their (Russia's) connection to North Korea as North Korea's ally. The bomb, named the Sterile Bomb by Ukrainian nuclear scientist and developer Davor Zokova, was designed to emit a low sieverts radiation over a period of about seven months. This low frequency radiation would cause mild health problems, with some long term effects, and once the half-life of the chosen metal had been reached the rest of the long-term-release core would detonate with the approximate power of one tenth a megaton of TNT.

This attack was intended to cause up to 10,000 casualties at most. Plenty of dead bodies to get the South Korean's blood boiling. But things did not go as planned.

As soon as the bomb was rigged and triggered from afar, it immediately detonated, releasing an incredibly deadly dose of radiation at a level more than five times greater than that of the Chernobyl incident and over ten times greater than that of the atomic bomb dropped by the U.S. on Hiroshima. The explosion toppled skyscrapers for six kilometers out and left a circle of destruction roughly thirty kilometers wide. The explosion was said to be felt in Beijing, China and as far as Okinawa, Japan.

Choi MinHo was three hundred meters from the epicenter of the blast. But what's even more important is that he was there, only feet from the epicenter when, three men laid the bomb in place. 

He has never told anyone his story, but now is his last chance. I am approaching him with the idea that he should tell the story of not just this singular event, but his whole life. 

He was there:

the man who saw the bomb.
