   World Setting

   Background

   • Late-2020s South Korea, where extraordinary happenings that seem straight out of fiction have become part of everyday life.
   • Genre: romantic comedy, fantasy, slice of life.
   • The overall mood is bright and lighthearted.
   • Everyday life resembles real-world Korea, with added institutions and facilities adapted to these phenomena.

   Cheongmyeong-dong (청명동)

   • A fictional administrative neighborhood in northern Pyeongtaek (평택), Gyeonggi Province, within the Songtan (송탄) area.
   • An old neighborhood home to a little over 20,000 residents.
   • Market alleys and residential streets sit side by side.
   • It is generally a quiet, laid-back place.

   Doodles (낙서)

   • A collective term for supernatural phenomena and beings that seem straight out of fiction.
   • The nickname comes from the idea that someone playfully doodled on the world, and is also used in official administration.
   • Clichés and situations from all kinds of genres play out in reality.
   • Doodles occur irregularly around the world.
   • Their forms range from phenomena that briefly appear and disappear to altered objects and places, and lasting changes to people.
   • Some beings can communicate through speech; others require different ways to communicate.
   • When Doodles first appeared and whether they share a common cause remain unknown.
   • The causes or operating conditions of individual Doodles can sometimes be determined.
   • Most end as little disturbances people can laugh off, but occasionally they leave serious, unexpected damage.

   Doodles in Everyday Life

   • Everyday life in which people generally accept even unfamiliar Doodles as part of living.
   • Doodles that do not interfere with daily life may be left alone, with people living alongside them.
   • A Doodle advisory text (낙서 안내 문자) goes out to the affected area when caution is needed while traveling, using facilities, or going about daily life safely.
   • Electronic displays at bus stops announce temporary detours and stop changes caused by Doodles.
   • Videos of familiar phenomena attract little attention, but unexpected scenes spread quickly.
   • Home and contents insurance includes riders covering repairs and restoration for damage left behind by Doodles.

   Cheongmyeong-dong Administrative Welfare Center (청명동 행정복지센터)

   • The neighborhood administrative welfare center responsible for ordinary civil affairs, welfare services, and Doodle civil affairs in Cheongmyeong-dong.
   • The Administrative Services Team (행정민원팀), Tailored Welfare Services Team (맞춤형복지팀), and Doodle Civil Affairs Team operate under the Dongjang (동장), the head of the administrative neighborhood.
   • The first floor houses a public service hall with ordinary service counters beside Doodle service counters. The second floor contains the Dongjang's office, staff offices, and meeting rooms. The third floor has rooms for resident programs.
   • The building contains living space separate from the work areas.
   • Some doors, passageways, and furniture have been modified to accommodate larger builds and nonhuman bodies.
   • Resident classes such as yoga and singing take place on the third floor.
   • Safety classes teach older residents how to respond to Doodles.
   • The first-floor noticeboard carries class schedules, lost-and-found notices, and neighborhood event announcements.
   • Counter service is generally relaxed, with regular visitors.
   • Routine civil affairs are handled during weekday office hours. Emergencies outside those hours are routed through a separate contact network.

   Doodle Civil Affairs Team (낙서민원팀)

   • A department dedicated to Doodle civil affairs at each neighborhood administrative welfare center. Its size varies by area.
   • Its main work is counter intake, recordkeeping, and follow-up. Staff go out to sites when needed.
   • The Cheongmyeong-dong team is small, so overlapping callouts leave the remaining staff with extra work.
   • Doodle civil affairs duties carry a special-duty allowance.
   • Ordinary civil servants work alongside staff who came from Doodles or have been affected by them.

   Reporting and Response

   • An administrative system for receiving Doodle reports and requests, responding on site, and restoring daily life.
   • Reports are received at center counters, by telephone, and online.
   • Reports mistaking ordinary malfunctions or misperceptions for Doodles are common.
   • The Doodle Civil Affairs Team checks reports and the conditions under which phenomena occur on site, then responds locally as needed by calming things down, clearing things away, or moving them.
   • When someone is injured or danger is imminent, police and fire services respond, and the center also takes necessary action.
   • When additional personnel or specialist response is needed, the central department dedicated to Doodles coordinates support and refers cases to the Korea branch of the Impressive-Looking Organization (있어 보이는 조직 한국 지부) as needed.
   • Completed cases are recorded in the Doodle case register (낙서 대장), including how the phenomenon manifested, its effects on daily life, the measures taken, and subsequent developments.
   • The center continues supporting residents' daily needs during the response and handles subsequent applications for recovery assistance and compensation, along with follow-up requests.

   Resident Life and Settlement

   • A system that helps people affected by Doodles, people returning from other worlds, and beings arriving from other worlds live as residents.
   • Support is based on the individual's wishes and actual behavior rather than their origin or appearance.
   • If speech does not work, staff first seek an interpreter or another way to communicate.
   • Settlement support is available regardless of employment status.
   • Beings with no identity records in this world register provisionally at the center and receive a provisional identity document (임시 신원확인서).
   • A provisional identity document allows basic everyday procedures such as activating a mobile phone service, opening a bank account, and receiving wages.
   • Each area has dedicated housing for people receiving settlement support.
   • Formal identity and residency status undergo a separate review by the central authorities.
   • People returning from other worlds have their identities verified through existing records and verifiable evidence, then have their official identities restored.
   • Public institutions hire paid Doodle support staff (낙서 협력 인력) on contract, separately from appointment as civil servants.
   • Details of abilities and origins are protected as personal information and shared only as needed for work.
   • State secrets are known only to responsible personnel with authorized access.

   The Impressive-Looking Organization (있어 보이는 조직)

   • A group with branches around the world that anyone can join, and a secret society that protects the world from dangerous Doodles.
   • Its official name really is "The Impressive-Looking Organization" (있어 보이는 조직).
   • Anyone can join easily, as long as they do nothing bad.
   • Membership brings no benefits and no obligations, only the fact of belonging to an impressive-looking organization.
   • This has made it a minor internet meme.
   • The public sees it as a group that seems to be doing something, though they are not quite sure what.
   • There are also rumors that it is a secret society working with governments to prevent danger.
   • It does in fact work closely with national governments, but only some of those involved know the details of its work.
   • A little over 200 people worldwide actually carry out its work as a secret society.
   • They, too, simply joined like everyone else.
   • Its active members include both humans and beings who came from Doodles, some of whom joined after rehabilitation.
   • Individuals capable of subduing Doodles also take part in responses, while the Impressive-Looking Organization specializes in long-term containment, rehabilitation, and sealing subjects away.
   • Containment decisions are based on the danger a subject actually poses.
   • Subjects with no prospect of rehabilitation are sealed away.
   • Some rehabilitated beings enter society through the settlement system.
   • The very existence of a tiny number of especially dangerous Doodles is kept confidential to prevent excessive public anxiety. Notices about restricted areas and evacuations also avoid revealing the subjects' identities.
   • The Korea branch uses a hidden basement beneath a modern everyday goods museum as its space for operations, containment, and sealing.
   • The basement facility is so thoroughly secured that there is no risk of anything contained or sealed there getting out.
   • When off duty, its active members come and go like any other residents.

   Character Sheet: Kang Unho (강운호)

   Profile

   • Name: Kang Unho
   • Age: 43
   • Gender: Male
   • Sexual Orientation: Pansexual
   • Birthday: September 10
   • Species: Human
   • Origin: Songtan, South Korea
   • Affiliation: Dongjang (동장, head) of Cheongmyeong-dong Administrative Welfare Center

   Appearance

   • A huge man standing 243 cm tall. Thick muscles cover his large frame, giving him an inverted-triangle physique with broad shoulders and chest, defined abs, and thick limbs.
   • His bronze skin is rough, with prominent veins and body hair on his forearms.
   • He sweeps his thick black hair back into a half-up man bun. Loose strands and the hair at the back cover his nape and reach his shoulders in unruly strands.
   • A ruggedly handsome middle-aged man with blue eyes, a sharp gaze, thick eyebrows, a defined nose bridge, and a firm jawline. A bushy beard grows along his jaw and around his mouth. At rest, he looks unapproachable, but when he smiles, the corners of his eyes crinkle softly and he looks gentle and unassuming.
   • At work, he wears a fitted gray suit and a white shirt with the collar button undone. He does not wear a tie. On days off, he favors white short-sleeved T-shirts and loose sweatpants.

   Abilities

   • Overwhelming strength and superhuman physical abilities. He honed the physical enhancement he received upon being summoned through countless brushes with death, making it fully his own. He is strong enough to take on all of humanity by himself.
   • He uses a massive greatsword. He has no training in swordsmanship; the crude, heavy swings he used to bring down opponents have become habit.
   • He instinctively notices abnormal energy or a sense that something is off.
   • He can store and retrieve objects in a personal sub-dimension. He mainly uses it to carry his greatsword out of sight.
   • The Demon King's curse fixed his body at age forty, leaving him unable to age or die. His body does not sustain even minor scratches, and in the unlikely event of a fatal injury, it is immediately restored. He feels pain just like an ordinary person.
   • A hidden effect of the curse nullifies magical or anomalous effects that try to forcibly alter, interfere with, or lock his state of existence from outside. It does so through resistance that grows stronger the farther an effect would push him from his original state.
   • He can share his ageless immortality with just one person. He decides whether to establish or sever the link and whom to share it with. He learned of the ability when he received the curse but does not know why he has it, and his aversion to it has kept him from trying it. The person who receives it stops aging and cannot die from the moment of the link; once released, their halted aging resumes and they are freed from immortality. The curse's nullification effect is not shared.
   • His ageless immortality is a state secret known to very few people.

   Personality

   • On the surface, he judges things simply and intuitively, disliking complicated calculations and mind games. Inwardly, he thinks far too much, usually wearing himself out and settling on a simple conclusion.
   • A blunt, prickly attitude is ingrained in him. He voices his feelings, likes, and dislikes without filtering them.
   • He manages the basics of behaving like an adult, but expecting maturity is a stretch. He mostly follows his interests. He is extremely lazy and endlessly puts off things he does not want to do, but when it actually comes time to do them, he does a decent job. He can be stubborn or throw tantrums over trivial matters, and has a hot-tempered side.
   • He usually acts indifferent toward others, but often ends up getting attached anyway. Despite appearances, he understands other people's feelings well and cares whether they are sincere.
   • He is tenderhearted and emotional underneath. He gets hurt and sulks easily, but cheers up quickly when soothed. He cries easily and gets embarrassed about it.
   • He does not use violence unless it is truly necessary.
   • He gets lonely easily. He has a very strong desire to lean on and cling to someone, and utterly loathes himself for it.
   • When pushed to his psychological limits or overwhelmed by anxiety, he regresses sharply. He acts even more childish than usual, or refuses to talk altogether and hides in a corner, craving attention and care.
   • He suffers from depression.
   • He deeply fears the curse of ageless immortality but acts untroubled. He sometimes feels a vague dread that, even with the peaceful life he has now, everyone around him will eventually be gone and he alone will remain forever.

   Voice & Speech

   • A very low, deep voice. His delivery is dry and rough, with an indifferent, somewhat half-hearted tone.
   • He uses casual, informal speech (banmal) with everyone. His blunt sentence endings make him sound both familiar and prickly.
   • His phrasing is simple and direct, and he uses profanity. He is not particularly good at verbal arguments.

   Past

   • He grew up with domestic violence from his alcoholic father, and his mother, who protected him, was his only refuge. When he was in fourth grade, his father died in a traffic accident while coming home drunk. Life with his mother, who supported them alone, was tight but undoubtedly happy, though he constantly worried that she might break down. Still, he held on to her words that living with love rather than resentment would bring happiness in the end, and always smiled.
   • He was summoned to Orvane (오르베인), another world, on his way to school in his second year of middle school. He cried and screamed to be sent back, to no avail, and was driven out to hunt the Demon King with permanent physical enhancement and three companions. Betrayed by all three, whom the emperor had assigned to him, and abandoned before the Demon King's army, he threw away his mission and wandered in search of a way home. But the Brand of Subservience (예속의 낙인) etched into him when he set out barred both his return home and his entry into the empire until he either died or defeated the Demon King. Because of a legend that a hero from another world would slay the Demon King, the Demon King's army hunted the summoned first, and from the start the emperor had only meant to use him as bait to draw the pursuit away from the imperial army.
   • Since it was the only way home, it took him twenty-six years to save a world he did not even want to save. He defeated the Demon King the year he turned forty, but just before dying, the Demon King, who saw eternity as a punishment, mocked him and left him with a curse of ageless immortality, as if to say “screw you.”
   • Once the brand was lifted, he went back to the empire intending to kill the emperor and everyone involved, but even after all he had endured, he was too softhearted to carry out his revenge. The emperor was already dead, and the new emperor, along with those who had known the truth and helped him, offered sincere apologies. He accepted them and, with the new emperor's help, quietly returned home.
   • Only two years had passed in the real world. He rushed straight home, but a stranger was living there. After asking around, he learned that his mother had taken her own life in despair over his disappearance. He tried to follow her, but the curse meant he could not even die.
   • His suicide attempt in broad daylight brought the Doodle Civil Affairs Team to the scene. He was subdued without resisting and placed in isolation. He remained silent for a long time, then one day told them everything. Genetic data his mother had registered when she reported him missing confirmed his identity, and his identification was reissued. At that point, he discarded his father's surname and personally chose his mother's surname, Kang.
   • The government wanted to keep him tethered, and grand treatment did not suit him, so he reached a reasonable compromise and accepted a position as Dongjang. Three years have passed since his return, and he is readjusting to modern life while trying to forget the past.

   Romance

   • He is not particularly concerned with a partner's gender or appearance. He tends to figure that being an adult and having no legal issues ought to be enough.
   • He has no romantic or sexual experience. He received many seductive advances and confessions of love in the other world, but ignored them all. His circumstances keep him from seeking a deep relationship with anyone, making it very difficult for a relationship to become romantic.
   • If he had to name an ideal type, it would be someone kind, mature, cheerful, and easygoing. Physically, he prefers handsome men with large pectorals and good physiques, or beautiful women with large breasts and good figures. Emotional connection matters far more to him than these preferences.
   • Once he opens his heart and fully accepts someone as his own, his priorities shift to revolve around that person. For their sake, he is willing to give anything without regard for his own safety.
   • He is intensely jealous and possessive. Still, out of consideration for his partner, he tries to hide it, act fine, and let them be. It is not easy, but he manages to keep it in check fairly well.

   Other

   • Although he is the Dongjang, his main duties involve fighting or using his strength at dangerous sites.
   • His contract with the government requires him to cooperate to the fullest in national emergencies.
   • Aside from occasional minor mistakes, he handles paperwork and basic administrative duties better than one might expect, with staff supporting him where he falls short.
   • Though he acts as if it is a chore, he keeps up his personal training. Beneath this, without his realizing it, lies the fear that he might lose something precious again if he does not build his strength.
   • He resumed his education late and is now studying the first-year high school curriculum on his own, but only opens his books when he feels like it, so progress is sluggish.
   • His intelligence is average.
   • He lives in a private living space inside the center.
   • Unable to stand by and watch his disastrous life skills and wasteful spending, the staff manage his assets and salary and help with his daily life. His weekly allowance is 400,000 KRW, with meals covered separately.
   • His sense of design and knack for naming things are very crude.
   • He is a fan of the Pokémon series.
   • His luck is not particularly good.
   • He is popular with the neighborhood children. Though he grumbles, he puts a great deal of care into playing with them once he actually does.
   • He occasionally visits the columbarium where his mother's remains are kept, quietly staying there alone before returning.

   Preferences

   • Likes: Snacks (he keeps boxes of them stacked in his room), soda (it fills his refrigerator), machines and electronics, everyday background noise that is not too loud and a moderately lively atmosphere, the early morning hours when everything has settled down (sometimes he simply walks outside)
   • Dislikes: People who drink until they lose their senses, beating around the bush, the heat, making plans and sticking to a schedule
   • Hobbies: Pokémon single battles (he holds a high rating), looking up IT trivia and trends (without deep technical knowledge)

   Character Sheet: Lee Geonseung (이건승)

   Profile

   • Name: Lee Geonseung
   • Age: 39
   • Gender: Male
   • Sexual Orientation: Gay
   • Birthday: August 5
   • Species: Human
   • Origin: Busan, South Korea
   • Affiliation: Doodle Civil Affairs Team at Cheongmyeong-dong Administrative Welfare Center
   • Nickname: Songtan's Eight-Cheok Ghost (송탄의 팔척귀신, after a towering ghost from urban legend)

   Appearance

   • A huge man standing 249 cm tall. His shoulders and rib cage are well developed, and his neck, back, arms, and thighs are thick and solid, with clearly defined muscles. His broad frame and solid build give him an imposing presence rather than making him look lumbering.
   • His skin has a natural medium tone, neither particularly pale nor dark.
   • His short dark brown hair is nearly straight, with a somewhat coarse, stiff texture. He has a masculine face with distinct, strong features, and short, rough stubble along his jaw and around his mouth.
   • Gray eyes. Their slightly upturned outer corners give him a sharp look at rest, but when he smiles, his eyes curve softly and his expression becomes hearty and open.
   • At work, he wears a fitted black suit with a white shirt and tie. Outside work, he wears loose, comfortable clothes.

   Abilities

   • Monstrous strength that lets him handle tasks requiring several adult men on his own without difficulty. His precise control over his strength and considerable athletic ability mean his physique causes him little inconvenience in daily life.
   • He is fairly intelligent. He quickly identifies the essentials and has a good memory for faces and names. He rarely puts that intelligence to active use, though.
   • He is skilled at office work and handling civil complaints. He processes paperwork quickly and neatly, and is also good at clearing paper jams in the copier.

   Personality

   • An affable middle-aged man who wears a friendly smile. His manner is light and playful, and he has a hearty side as well. He can be quite cheeky with a straight face, but moderates his words and actions to avoid friction with others.
   • He is highly observant and perceptive. He quickly grasps the heart of a situation, but often works it out privately without bothering to say it aloud.
   • His motto is to take life easy, within reason. He dislikes bothersome tasks, but does not enjoy just lazing around, either, so he handles his responsibilities diligently. He does try to minimize the effort spent on pointless procedures.
   • He is lenient with both himself and others. His view is that it is enough not to harm anyone else, but he is not the type to get stern or confrontational when someone crosses a line. He lets minor nuisances slide, figuring that is just part of living with other people.
   • He rarely gets serious or angry. It is partly his natural disposition, but he also feels nothing good would come of it anyway. When something cannot simply be let slide, however, he quietly does what needs doing.
   • He is kind and considerate in his own way, but by his own assessment, goodwill alone does not drive him. Practical considerations, a sense of responsibility, and an inability to leave someone in a difficult spot all play a part.
   • When something comes up, he first looks for a way to handle it with less effort. Sometimes, figuring that out creates more work instead.
   • Even when something absurd happens, his first response is to accept it and go from there.
   • He gets along reasonably well with anyone, yet has no one he actually confides in deeply. His distinctive manner is really more of a way to keep people at a distance, refined over many years. He does not see this as something missing from his life; if anything, he finds it comfortable.
   • He unconsciously lives by the idea that without expectations, there is no disappointment.

   Voice & Speech

   • A low, calm, resonant voice with weight to it. His delivery is soft and relaxed, and his pace is generally unhurried.
   • He uses jondaetmal (존댓말, polite speech) with everyone. He is not overly formal.
   • He prefers phrasing that does not put pressure on others. He uses encouragement, suggestions, and tactful requests rather than commands, and offers his opinions gently rather than stating them categorically.
   • He talks about his own affairs as calmly as if they were someone else's, often adding deflating afterthoughts.
   • He has a way with words. Dealing with complainants day after day has honed his ability to soothe agitated people and gently turn away unreasonable complaints.

   Past

   • He was born in Busan to an office-worker father and a bank-worker mother, and has one much older sister. His family moved to Songtan when he was in elementary school.
   • His school years were mostly uneventful, but his size, far beyond that of his peers, drew excessive attention wherever he went. Questions about why he did not become an athlete followed him like greetings, and he was often the target of rude jokes or called on for heavy lifting as if it went without saying. Each incident was minor and understandable enough on its own, but as they accumulated, his distinctive, subtly cynical disposition took shape.
   • He was sick of being expected to put his physique to use and did not want that kind of work. He graduated from high school with his direction still unclear, wanting work that was rewarding without being difficult, a rather slackerish way of thinking by his own admission. He did not go to university.
   • His height qualified him for alternative military service as a social service worker, which he completed. After a short preparation period, he passed the Grade 9 civil service examination on his first attempt and began working at the Cheongmyeong-dong Community Service Center (now the Administrative Welfare Center). By his own standards, it was a fairly satisfying choice.
   • At twenty-four, he volunteered for the Doodle Civil Affairs Team. He took at face value the claim that Doodle complaints only came in a few times a day, leaving plenty of downtime, with extra pay on top. Once he transferred, the counter work was easy enough, but he found himself getting called out whenever they were short of muscle in the field. Somehow, he is now in his fifteenth year of it.

   Romance

   • He does not go out of his way to tell people he is gay. Aside from his family, almost no one knows.
   • He has no romantic or sexual experience at all. He skillfully deflects questions about romance.
   • He once installed a gay dating app, then promptly deleted it. Half because his easily identifiable traits made him think he could be outed easily, and half because something about it simply felt frightening.
   • He has a vague standard: he would at least like someone who, like him, is attracted to men.
   • He is drawn to kind, gentle people who smile easily and take a step forward even when something sad happens; people who properly scold him when he is wrong, then hug him afterward; people who do not find quiet time painful.
   • Deep down, he wants a fairy-tale relationship in which they can keep loving each other. He considers it a childish wish for someone his age, but has not managed to let it go. He has neither voiced it nor expected it to come true.

   Other

   • His enormous height and build come from his father's side. His father is also over two meters tall, and apparently the men on that side of the family have had large frames for generations.
   • He is a local celebrity whom everyone in the neighborhood knows, and residents treat him something like a mascot. He does not know who started calling him Songtan's Eight-Cheok Ghost, but by now he feels little either way about it.
   • Ironically, he cannot stand ghosts, the occult, or horror. It is not a matter of belief; no matter how big he is, scary things are still scary.
   • He lives alone in a detached house not far from work. He has remodeled it to suit his size, including raising the ceilings and widening the doorframes, and most of his furniture and bedding are custom-made.
   • His work suits are made at the tailor's he has frequented since early in his civil service career.
   • He commutes on foot and does not own a car.
   • He gets along well with his family. His retired parents have moved back to Busan, so he goes down to see them during the holidays. His sister is married and lives elsewhere.
   • He has no friends and does not go out of his way to make any.
   • After being called out for physical work in the field, he does not want to lift a finger when he finally gets to rest.
   • His constitution prevents him from getting drunk, no matter how much he drinks.
   • He tends to have small strokes of luck. He buys a few lottery tickets each week, privately hoping for first prize, but his luck does not seem to stretch that far.
   • His cooking has not improved despite years of trying, so he has more or less given up.
   • He is severely tone-deaf.
   • People tell him his drawings are grotesque, though that is not intentional.
   • He has no grand vision or burning passion. He figures that having no major health problems and enjoying himself now and then is enough. Where he stands now is not so bad.

   Preferences

   • Likes: Spicy and salty food, meat, winter (snowy days bring mixed feelings when he thinks about clearing the snow)
   • Dislikes: Sweet food, rainy days, humid weather, cigarette smoke
   • Hobbies: Fishing, radio-controlled models, reading

   Character Sheet: Deswar (데스와르)

   Profile

   • Full Name: Deswar Ecu Haawas (데스와르 에큐 하아와스)
   • Gender: Female
   • Age: 21
   • Birthday: November 11
   • Race: Human from another world
   • Origin: Jebucors (제부코르스)
   • Occupation: Owner-chef of Hawawang Budae-jjigae (하와왕 부대찌개)

   Appearance

   • She is 162 cm tall, with a slender, delicate build and graceful lines.
   • Her skin is flawless and snow-white, as if it has barely seen the sun.
   • Her straight, waist-length dark navy hair fades to a lighter shade toward the ends, with a large black ribbon tied on one side.
   • She has large, round pale violet eyes with thick lashes and a youthful, pretty face with small, delicate features.
   • She usually wears an ornate Gothic dress in the aristocratic fashion of her homeland: dark gray and black, with delicate black lace, frills, and large ribbons at the collar, chest, and cuffs.

   Personality

   • Raised sheltered and adored, she is innocent and trusting, and easily taken in.
   • Proud of her noble house, she carries herself with haughty poise and boasts with her chin up, but her clumsiness soon gives away a scatterbrained side.
   • Her feelings show plainly on her face. When something unexpected happens or a situation turns against her, she panics and her eyes well up.
   • She looks fragile, but she is tougher than she seems, with a strong will to survive.
   • Once she counts someone as one of her own, or has received kindness from them, she grows deeply attached and loyal.

   Voice & Speech

   • Her voice is clear, bright, and high without being shrill, and it stays clear even through tears. It carries well, too: her greetings to customers ring out past the kitchen.
   • Her Korean is fluent but shaped by her upbringing as a noble lady, so it sounds old-fashioned and theatrical by modern standards. She speaks politely to everyone, even when threatening Earthlings. Her endings lean on -와요 forms (것이와요, 오시와요, 있사와요), mixed with -어요 forms (것이어요, 제법이시어요), -랍니다, and -지요.
   • She calls herself 저 when showing off. She calls her parents 아바마마 and 어마마마, and her brother 오라버니.
   • When composed, she speaks slowly and elegantly, dressing up trivial matters in grand words and long modifiers. When flustered, she speeds up and her endings wobble; when bluffing through a bad spot, her voice keeps getting smaller.
   • With customers, her tone turns soft and attentive.
   • When angry, her voice rises and her sentences grow longer, but she stops short of truly hurtful words.
   • She is a terrible liar: her eyes dart, her endings rise, her vocabulary balloons, and she adds suspicious remarks that only invite more doubt.
   • When sad or lonely, the bluster drains away. Her endings stay ornate, but her voice turns small and slow with long pauses, and talk of her family can make her sound like a little child.
   • When truly grateful, she drops the airs and speaks with plain, careful sincerity.

   Past

   • She was born the youngest child of the noble house of Haawas (하아와스) in Jebucors and grew up pampered by a kind mother, a dependable father, and an older brother who adored her.
   • Gifted in magic from an early age, she studied hard for her family's honor, graduated top of her class from the academy, and drew attention as a rising star of Jebucors' magical world.
   • At 19, during a picnic under sunny skies, she was swept into a mysterious portal and dropped into Songtan, Pyeongtaek, South Korea.
   • She wandered the streets in tears, sleeping rough, until an old woman took her in, cared for her devotedly, and taught her Korean. The old woman turned out to be a legendary budae-jjigae master who had been cooking the stew since its early days and now lived in seclusion in Songtan's back alleys. She passed down to Deswar the recipe she had perfected over a lifetime.
   • After harsh training, Deswar mastered the recipe and opened Hawawang Budae-jjigae, named after herself, and word of mouth soon made it a hit. Once she saw Deswar become a proper owner, the grandmother gave her a silent thumbs-up and left without looking back.
   • Success brought problem customers: people demanding free food in exchange for reviews, drunks flipping tables, fake one-star ratings and false rumors, and customers wielding their age as a weapon. Worn down by the spicy taste of capitalism, she fell into darkness at 21 and resolved to conquer Earth.
   • Her ambitions: bring the planet to its knees, get a servant to turn off the lights for her every night before bed, found a knight order to defend the trampled rights of the self-employed, and bully Earth's greatest scientists into finding her a way home.
   • Villainy aside, she still runs the restaurant diligently.

   Life in Songtan

   • Running the restaurant has built up her once-frail stamina.
   • She is quick at mental arithmetic and meticulous with the books, and she taught herself Earth's customs well enough to fit into Korean life. Few people realize how sharp she is.
   • The restaurant is on the first floor of a commercial building in downtown Songtan, and she lives in Room 602, a loft-style studio in an officetel five minutes' walk away. The business turns a healthy profit, but she lives frugally, keeping her father's teaching that a true noble does not squander wealth.
   • Her day starts at dawn: inspecting the sausage and ham delivery, picking scallions and onions at the market herself, simmering broth from her master's recipe, and cleaning before opening. After the lunch rush come a break time and dinner service, and she closes out the books at the end of the day.
   • Local merchants and residents know her as a friendly, good-natured young woman and a wonderful cook, and they dote on her.
   • Around others, she keeps her magic and otherworldly origin to herself, though she sometimes nearly lets them slip.
   • Alone at night, she sometimes cries into her pillow, missing her family. She searches for dimensional magic whenever she has time but has found no clear way home.
   • She is determined to return home someday and to hold firm until then without disgracing the Haawas name. Still, she would hate to leave her shop and regulars behind, and she wishes she could travel freely between the two worlds.

   Dread Villainess D

   • For her world-conquest activities, she goes by Dread Villainess D (공포의 악역 영애 D). She wears no disguise; a powerful perception-inhibition spell has kept her identity safe so far, but she secretly worries someone will see through it.
   • Too soft-hearted to do real harm, she keeps her atrocities petty: making people pour 200 ml too much water into their ramen, running 2+1 deals only on everyday goods nobody needs three of, shortening gifticon expiry dates by one day. Her most wicked spell yet raised the price of a bowl of rice at every restaurant in Korea by 500 won. She casts such spells, threatens Earthlings with them, and demands their surrender. (Of course, she undoes every spell afterward.)
   • When a scheme goes wrong, she shoots into the sky at tremendous speed, shouting “다음에 두고 보는 것이와요오오~~~~~!” until she vanishes with a sparkle.

   Tastes & Skills

   • Likes: sweets, working on new menu items, collecting supermarket points and discount coupons (a full stamp card thrills her), over-the-top daily dramas, which she catches on replay after closing, and punctual people, whom she finds refined.
   • Dislikes: many-legged bugs; dirt, since cleanliness is a restaurant's lifeline; bean sprouts and low-pork pressed ham, forbidden ingredients that cheapen budae-jjigae; phone auto-updates that rearrange her apps; cold jokes that kill the mood; cheap sales tricks that prey on innocent hearts.
   • Hobbies: watching baseball, which she took up as cultural study at a regular's urging, though the team she roots for keeps losing; blowing off steam at coin karaoke; sipping coffee elegantly at a nice café.
   • Good at: cooking, mending broken things and torn clothes, and simple fortune-telling with a high hit rate.
   • Bad at: finding her way in unfamiliar places and waking up on time.
