Episode 12 – A Clone’s Limit, A Human’s DreamIt was a low, lazy sun outside, and the cramped windows of the apartment were tinted warm orange. The light filtered in through thin curtains, falling over piles of instant ramen wrappers, sweat-soaked gym clothes, and the single futon that marked Kim Do-hyun’s (김도현) tiny kingdom.He threw off his shoes and closed the door behind him with the heel of his foot, a heavy sigh coming between his lips. Home again. His back was sore, his calves were on fire, and his neck was chewed up by a very bad-tempered gorilla. But all that did not appear on his face.“I swear... If I don't get a reward for this grind, I’m gonna start charging the clone rent,” he muttered, voice dry as sand.Yet something was... wrong.The flat was silent. A little too silent. He looked across at the little corner table where the clone folded its work clothes. Nothing. No sign. Still gone?“Seriously?” Do-hyun rubbed his hair that was now a bit greasy and took out his phone
episode 11
Episode 11 – The Little Spark in the GirlThe sun came in through gauzy curtains into the silent living room. Textbooks and papers were scattered on a small wooden table, each page having sticky notes in bright colors as a miniature flag of despair. There was the smell of perfume, baby shampoo, and tension in the air.Kim Do-hyun (김도현) inhaled slowly and stepped back from the table. There was the sound of a soft hum in his mind, like the memories that lingered in the air of yesterday and today.Min-joo was sitting across the table with her head down. Her black hair fell upon her shoulders like a dark cascade. She would not look at him. She was smaller than yesterday—shy, remote, concealing more than her half-formed sentences.Do-hyun ahemmed.“Okay, give me your score.”He saw her fingers shake a little as she opened the test paper. She folded it out, the folds crisp.The room was silent, as though he was an intruder entering into the dream of another.He bent over, reading the figure

Episode 10 – The Tutor and the TornadoOutside, the morning air was dry and strangely still, as though the world were waiting to breathe. Kim Do-hyun (김도현) stood at the bus stop in his plain sneakers, feeling the heat of the asphalt beneath his feet. He had two phones in his hands. One was the battered old Android he played games on, which now was the property of the clone. The other was his real phone. The actual one. His lifeline. His stress. His chain to the wild world beyond.It buzzed.He glanced at the screen and saw the name: Oh Deok-su (오덕수).The warehouse manager. The person who gave him this insane tutoring job because he saw his so-called genius.His thumb glided over the screen, and he responded with a sluggish, “Hello?”[“You free right now? Come and teach my daughter. She’s home.”]Do-hyun paused. He looked up at the sun as though it had offended him. “Right now?”[“Yeah, right now. She's being difficult again. Come fix her.”]He heaved a sigh. He was tender after yester
Game 9
Episode 9 – The Gym of Gains and Chicken DreamsIt was a warm wind that morning, and the sun was peeping over the congested skyline as though he were too timid to rise. Kim Do-hyun (김도현) stepped off the bus with a quiet sigh, slinging a cheap nylon gym bag over his shoulder. There was a clean towel, a bottle of water, and nerves he could not quite swallow down.His clone was out there working in the warehouse, performing push-ups on his breaks and living off of old ramen. That left the actual Do-hyun alone on his way to the gym entrance. His steps were irresolute, careful yet firm. That old feeling in his stomach? It was just like it was when he first pressed the button marked Start on some online game—the fear and excitement of going into a dungeon.And then—“YO, YOU BASTARD!”A big palm struck him on the shoulder like a hammer dropped out of the sky. Do-hyun turned around with his eyes wide and was about to run when he saw a mountain of muscle in front of him.It was Nam Tae-joon (

Episode 8 – [Clone on Duty, Boss in Training]The thin curtains of the studio apartment were bleeding morning sunlight through, giving the wooden floor a pale gold shimmer. There was a faint smell of instant ramen, sweat, and cheap detergent, which were all indicators of two bodies living on borrowed time and borrowed energy.Kim Do-hyun (김도현) groaned as he peeled one eye open. His arms and legs seemed to be full of sand. Muscles he didn't even know he had were sore. He turned over and looked at the clock on the wall.7:12 AM.His copy was not returned.Do-hyun sat up slowly, his body grumbling at every movement. He rubbed his eyes, got up, and shuffled over to the kitchenette. A rice cooker, two empty ramen bowls, and three half-opened protein bar wrappers greeted him on the counter like silent witnesses to last night's grind.The click of a door opening behind him turned him.His clone intervened. The garments it wore were wet with perspiration, the face pale, and the eyelids heavy.
Game 7
EPISODE 7 – “Double Shift”The morning haze still clung to the edges of the city like a sleepy fog refusing to let go. Gray clouds floated lazily overhead, hiding the sun but not the heat. The sidewalk shimmered faintly, soaked in yesterday’s humidity and sweat. Somewhere in the distance, a crow cawed. Seoul, even in its laziest hours, never truly slept.Kim Do-hyun (김도현) tugged at the collar of his oversized shirt as he approached the rust-covered gates of the logistics center. His nerves were tight, his stomach a tangle of tension, caffeine, and cheap ramen from last night.Next to him stood his “cousin brother,” John Dong.Tall, chubby, silent, with eyes that didn’t blink much. That was the clone. His expression was blank, but that wasn’t new. Emotion wasn’t something Number 1 was programmed to care about.“All right,” Do-hyun whispered, keeping his voice low as a small delivery truck rumbled by behind them. “Simple words. No full sentences unless you’re forced. Don’t talk too much
