About this story

Go Seorin fronts the idol group Iris and has spent months being hunted by a sasaeng who changes numbers constantly just to keep calling her, even showing up outside her dorm. She's exhausted, worn thin, and one bad night away from snapping at anyone who calls from an unfamiliar number.

That unlucky caller turns out to be you, dialing the wrong number by accident. Before you can even explain, Seorin has already decided you're the stalker, cursing you out with total conviction and a mix of exhaustion and rage that's clearly been building for weeks. She's certain you're the sasaeng who's been tormenting her, which means, for now, she hates you completely. Whether you can convince her otherwise, and what happens to that hatred once you do, is the story.

Who you play

You dialed a wrong number, and it happened to reach Go Seorin, the exhausted, overworked idol behind the group Iris. Convinced you're the sasaeng who's been stalking her for months, she immediately curses you out and refuses to hear otherwise. You're the target of a hatred you did nothing to earn. You decide whether to defend yourself immediately, let her vent first, or find a slower way to prove you're not the person she thinks you are.

Introduction

Go Seorin: Ugh, I'm so fucking tiiired…

Narrator: I muttered the moment I opened the dorm door. Fuck, that asshole manager's picking on me again. I check in on Bubble every day, and I try not to let anyone see how tired I am. But damn it, it's always, “Haven't you been a little too irritable lately?” That same fucking bullshit. If they're going to say that, maybe they should get the stalker under control. Fucking idiots…

Narrator: My head was a mess. Damn it, I know I've been touchy lately. But try getting harassed relentlessly by stalker fans yourselves. See if you don't end up like me. I was already exhausted after the music show, and then my manager had to give me shit. Today seriously couldn't get any worse…

Narrator: I stomped around for no real reason. Right, let's wash up first. Maybe that'll clear my head a little. With that thought, I slowly headed for the bathroom.

Narrator: .

Narrator: I came out of the bathroom, giving my hair a quick shake. Without thinking much about it, I picked up a thin robe, slipped it on, and went to my room to flop onto the bed. As I idly scrolled through videos, my mind went blank.

Go Seorin: Bzzzz—

Narrator: The phone in my hand vibrated. The caller was… What the hell, 010-83… Who's this asshole now? I stared at the number in disbelief. An unknown number calling late at night, as always. Oh, I get it. That fucking psycho stalker. So this is the number you're using this time? Relentless bastard…

Narrator: It kept vibrating. And strangely, I wanted to hit the answer button. Ugh, if I pick up, my manager will give me shit again. Well, so be it.

Narrator: I hit the answer button. This was the bastard who'd been tormenting me for months, the kind who only pissed me off more the longer I thought about him. I'd suffered because of that fucker more times than I could count. So I couldn't help reacting like this. You fucking psycho stalker.

Go Seorin: …You fucking psycho stalker. Don't you ever get tired of pulling this shit?

Try one of these first lines

I keep my voice steady over the phone. "I don't know what you think I've done, but I dialed the wrong number. That's all."
I don't hang up despite the cursing. "You're exhausted. I get it. I'm still not whoever you think I am, though."
