Chapter Four: New World New Adventure

Yuri stood on the brink of choosing between resolving her problems and entering another world. Realizing there was no reason to stay amid the absence of her mother and sister, coupled with the unforgivable actions of her father, she uttered, "I don't have any reason to stay."

The old woman snapped her fingers, and the book's pages turned on their own, leaving Yuri in shock, questioning if she was dreaming. Abruptly, a colossal door materialized before her.

With a nod and a smile, the old woman vanished. Yuri, driven by curiosity, opened the door and found herself in a magically enchanting place. Moments later, she descended from the sky into Seoul in 2023, surrounded by tall buildings and cars.– a whole different world. Clad in her hanbok of blue and pink, a bag her mother made in tow, Yuri, with her braided hair and a book in hand, stood in the midst of the bustling street. The unfamiliar sights and sounds overwhelmed her; she fainted, the journey taking its toll.

Waking up in the hospital, Yuri, unfamiliar with the place and its technology, was approached by a nurse who assured her well-being and suggested registering her name. The nurse, curious about Yuri's hanbok, asked if she planned to take a picture for social media.

Unable to understand, Yuri shook her head, smiled, and quickly left. Watching her departure, the nurse muttered, "What is wrong with people these days?"

Seated on the unfamiliar street, Yuri's surroundings felt both distant and overwhelming. The city bustled around her, indifferent to the internal chaos of a girl stranded in a world so different from her own. Her thoughts wavered between the memories of her mother and the life she was having because of her stepmother

As she sat there, the rhythm of life continued, but Yuri was a mere spectator, contemplating the unpredictable turns her journey had taken. The vibrant colors of her hanbok seemed like a poignant contrast to the muted tones of the urban landscape, symbolizing a clash between two worlds.

Tired from wandering the busy city, Yuri took a seat on a quiet street. With her magical book in hand, she wondered how it could transport people to different worlds.

As night fell, she got up, noticing the street clearing out. Passing a group of drunk guys, one called her the "hanbok lady." Ignoring them, she walked faster, but they persisted. One guy even touched her, making her run.

Relieved, she found herself in the middle of a road, cars approaching. Unfortunately, a car hit her. She Fell in the floor Dazed, she heard someone asking if she was okay.Then, after some time, the voice faded away, leaving Yuri in a moment of silence.

As Yuri slowly opened her eyes, she gazed at the ceiling adorned with brilliant lights, captivated by the sheer beauty of the expansive design. The impressive display left her in awe, marking her introduction to this new and visually stunning world.
