​The story takes place thirty years after the glorious defeat of the Dictator of the Castelan Empire in 1870. Despite the relative peace in allied nations—Lafiaza and the United Republic of Australasia—and global efforts toward reparation, racism and propaganda are still rampant. ​ Thirty years after the glorious defeat of the Empire of Castela, the world is still in its recovering state, yet propaganda against one another is inevitable, and the oppression upon certain races is extreme. ​One of the main protagonists of the story, Manabu Satoshi, raised in Feropia, unintentionally gets caught up in a strange serial killer case—"Mr. Santa"—after the death of his close friend. He later finds himself in an unfortunate situation where the world begins to unfold itself before him and his friends, leading to one inescapable realization: War is inevitable.

In the glittering neon shadows of the modern city, countless unsolved mysteries lurk beneath the surface. Lin Ze, a recent civil engineering graduate, returns to his late grandfather's old house to clear out the belongings. While sorting through the dusty attic, he discovers a locked wooden box hidden away for decades — a box his grandfather never mentioned. Inside are not ordinary documents, but "Weird Files": detailed records of real urban horrors — apartments where doors knock at midnight with no one outside, AI systems that predict and cause deaths, old buildings that swallow people into parallel spaces... Opening a file forces Lin Ze to personally investigate and "close" the case. Failure means the horror spills from the page into reality. Relying on his sharp intuition and a hidden family bloodline that grants him extraordinary insight, Lin Ze delves deeper, only to uncover a massive sci-fi conspiracy: a shadowy future organization using advanced technology to manipulate human fate and manufacture terror. Layer by layer, the suspense builds. The horror intensifies. The cases interconnect.

Ethan Vale has waited his whole life for a breakout role. When a legendary, reclusive director chooses him to star in a “reality-driven” thriller called The Method, Ethan believes his big moment has finally arrived. But the set is wrong. No cameras. No crew. No script. Only one rule: “Don’t act — be.” Every scene cuts too close to his past. Every emotion feels forced out of him. And when a late-night shoot ends in a very real murder, Ethan realizes he’s trapped in something far more dangerous than a film. By morning, the entire production has vanished… leaving behind a flash drive labeled Scene 37. On it is footage of the murder from angles that should be impossible—along with one chilling command: “Continue.” Now Ethan is the star suspect in a crime he doesn’t understand, hunted by the police, the public, and whoever is still filming him from the shadows. The director he trusted may not even exist. The script he thought he was following was never his. And the deeper he digs, the more terrifying the truth becomes: In The Method, there are no retakes. No escape. Only consequences. Because Ethan is no longer the actor. He’s the story.

It was just another normal day for Lim Soohyun. He went to work, grabbed lunch from his favorite local restaurant, and clocked out exactly on time. Roaming the streets of Gangnam after work was his favorite pastime — there was always something amusing or strange to see among the lively night crowds. But tonight, what caught his eye was a random man standing beside an even more random-looking Gashapon machine. Obviously, he had to try it. The price was ridiculous and the man said he can only spin once, there was even a chance he might not get anything. Swallowing hard, Lim Soohyun turned the dial. When a capsule finally dropped into the slot, he exhaled in relief. The suspicious-looking man handed him the capsule. Inside was a cheap piece of pink gum and a note with instructions. That was it. The note promised “promotion” and “points” if he followed the tasks listed, points he could later use to buy more capsules. Lim Soohyun did what any sane person would do after reading it. He sold everything he owned, quit his job, abandoned his apartment, and bought the most haunted house on the market — just as the note instructed. With a soul that only craved entertainment, what could possibly go wrong?
