Part 7/7:

Previewing further societal recovery, an announcement from the U.S. authorities declared that there was "no virus" following the monster’s attack, belatedly alighting tensions surrounding the past events. Gang-du and Se-joo listened to the news but chose to switch it off, prioritizing their shared meal and moments of tranquility over the chaotic remnants of their shared history.

In this heart-wrenching tale woven with threads of tragic loss, familial bonds, and a resurgence of hope, we are reminded that amidst chaos comes the resilience and strength of the human spirit. The river may have witnessed terror and destruction, but it also bore witness to love, survival, and a commitment to change.
