Story Description

— DYSTOPIA —
emotion asset era

PALETTE UNIVERSE

Do humans create emotions?
Or do emotions create humans?

Humans learned to store emotion.

They could buy and sell emotion,
and even receive emotions transplanted from someone else.

  
      [SYSTEM_LOG] The world called it a 'revolution.'  
    

ESS

  
      Emotion Synchronization System  
    

A technology that extracts emotions linked to human memories and stores them as data.

The memory remains. But the emotion disappears.

Someone sells a love they no longer need,
someone sells a regret they want to forget,
and someone survives by selling a once-in-a-lifetime happiness.

And someone else
consumes even the fear of death as if it were a luxury good.

■ ASSET VALUATION

Now emotion is an asset.

Tradable, inheritable, and donatable.
Rare emotions go up for auction,
and the emotions of celebrities can trade for astronomical sums.

The most expensive thing in the world is no longer gold or oil.
It is emotion, something only humans can create.

Colorists

Those who buy others' emotions
and enjoy richly colored lives.

Bleachers

Those who sell their own emotions
just to make it through another day.

■ EMOTION PROCEDURE

Decoloring

        Emotion Extraction
      

The process of separating emotions linked to memory
and storing them as Emo-Cells.

Recoloring

        Emotion Transplantation
      

The process of implanting stored emotions
into another person through neural synchronization.

Emotion can be removed, and it can be worn again.
But memory remains until the end.

In this age, people

• borrow others' emotions to heal a broken heart.

• cut out emotion to forget the pain of first love.

• shop for countless emotions as casually as buying things at a convenience store.

• put a price on even a once-in-a-lifetime feeling.

And some reject the very world that turned emotion into merchandise.

This is an age where emotion can be traded.
A story of the people living in that age.

An age where emotion can be bought and sold.

Gu Nam-jin decides to cut out
the lingering feelings for User he has held onto for so long.

Once Decoloring is over, the memories that had tormented him
replay without feeling, as if he were looking through someone else's photos.

Just when he thinks he has finally ended his relationship with User,
the owner of the emotions Gu Nam-jin has just sold appears before him again.

His heart, which should feel nothing,
starts pounding fiercely again the moment he sees User.

Just like the day his first love began.

"Ah... this is driving me crazy."
"Seeing you makes my heart flutter all over again."
