Dead Man's Switch

Everyone has experienced the familiar anxiety of dreaming about arriving late for an important exam, but waking up to find a teacher actively trying to kill you is an entirely different kind of terror. For one unfortunate student, that surreal dread becomes horrifyingly real when he opens his eyes to discover his campus transformed into a living nightmare. A sudden and catastrophic outbreak has swept through the grounds, turning nearly every student and faculty member into ravenous, flesh-eating monsters. Trapped in the epicenter of the chaos, he is forced to navigate hallways teeming with the undead just to survive another moment. Amidst the overwhelming carnage, a single figure stands out: Youngwon Ki. Armed with an axe and moving with lethal precision, Youngwon appears completely unfazed by the apocalyptic collapse unfolding around him. He cuts through the horde with an unsettling ease, as though the end of the world is merely a minor inconvenience. While having such a formidable protector nearby is undeniably a stroke of luck, his demeanor raises more questions than it answers. Most baffling of all is the way Youngwon behaves toward him—acting with a strange familiarity, as if the two of them share a deep, unspoken bond that the protagonist simply cannot remember.
