About the Game

Synopsis

What makes someone perfect?

Experience this short bittersweet story in the shoes of the main character, Jung, where you will spend your time hanging out with a girl named Ai. Ai is everything Jung wishes for in a woman... except for one very important thing. A thing he prefers to disregard in order for them to have the best time of their lives.

You have a day to enjoy your date and see the world from Jung's point-of-view.
