ORIGINAL STORY WEBTOON SWEET HOME BY CARNBY KIM AND YOUNGCHAN HWANG

SWEET HOME

Today was the day I had planned on killing myself.

But today, I'm leaving this place

so I can survive.

Monster humans are creatures who have been denied

the beautiful relief of death.

I'm sure you'll do well, unlike the others.

I get the feeling we're about to witness the birth of a very special MH, you see.

Can you use me to develop a vaccine or a cure?

You might end up dead though. Are you okay with that?

Nothing matters anymore at this point.

Just accept what you are,

nothing but a monster.

Yeah.

I'm a monster.

Even when you bring out your very best, you're still just a failure.

You can't save anyone, even yourself.

There was nothing more I could do.

I wanted... to become a better person.

Are you just gonna die a miserable death?

Is that what you really want?

That's all lies.

Like I told you,

I can help you out.

I can do it all. I can give you...

everything you've ever wanted.

All right, dinner is served.

Oh, yum, yum, yum, yum. It looks delicious, doesn't it?

How does it smell?

Try the broth first.

Hyun-su, you go ahead. Try it. Hmm?

Here, this one's for Hyun-su.

I know that none of this is real.

But why does that even matter when you can finally be happy?

You'll live in a kind of dream world

while I hold down the fort in this hellish reality.

No.

You can be so stubborn.

I missed you!

"You were a mistake. You're a monster."

I gave birth to you, why would you be a monster?

Did you use those hands to turn them into monsters?

Yi-kyung!

Yi-kyung is very sick. She could die any moment.

Mom's not gonna die, so stop crying, please.

How could she turn so suddenly? She wasn't showing any symptoms.

Her daughter did this to her.

Monsterization is uncontrollable by humans.

You don't lose your humanity when you become a monster.

They're still a human deep within.

I can see it all.

I can understand what people who turn into monsters are after.

But Yi-kyung is also miserable on that side.

I have to stop her.

It has to be me.

You don't have to do anything.

Why am I still alive?

I'd be better off just becoming a monster.

Cha Hyun-su.

Are you going to hit me with that?

Bring him back.

Bring Cha Hyun-su back now.

He's hurt, you know.

Let him rest a bit.

I only came to help him because the pain was killing him.

So don't be like that.

This is all your people's fault, you know.

I thought Hyun-su is in control?

I'm also Cha Hyun-su.

You're a monster. I mean the real Hyun-su.

We agreed to help each other out.

I can't exactly have Cha Hyun-su dying on me, you know?

Why don't you leave him be and get lost?

You mean it?

Sure that's what you want?

Are you sure you'd be okay with just...

a weak Cha Hyun-su?

Yes.

What are you doing?

Don't know.

What should we do?

What do you want?

God, I can't deal with this crazy asshole.

It's unreal, seriously.

Cha Hyun-su.

I knew you would come back.

That is, if you hadn't been slain somewhere.

For you too, this place meant everything.

I don't think we've met before.

Oh, you know how it is.

Being a famous figure,

I simply can't recognize everyone who recognizes me.

Were you a researcher?

I'm not all that interested in people, so I don't like them, you see.

You showed a lot of interest in me despite what you say.

Yeah.

So...

who exactly are you?

Your very first...

...test subject.

I really wanted to show you this.

What is it you called me?

MH-1, right?

Remember now?

I'm your dear friend, Nam Sang-won.

I'm glad we meet again.

I was worried, you know...

that you might be dead.

You're saying you're Nam Sang-won?

You're putting a lot of effort into this bullshit.

Se-yeon.

This is your work.

SANG-WON

Sang-won...

Ah...

Oh no, Sang-won.

Seo Yi-kyung is dead.

Nam Sang-won's greatest desire.

He wanted to escape those damned experiments,

and this is the result.

I was freed by the pain you inflicted on me.

And you succeeded in extracting the monster.

Congrats.

So is this the part where I die?

Why would you?

I'm actually thankful for you.

I was born from monsterization.

But I wasn't complete...

until I met you.

But why?

Why are you still here, in this place,

after what you've been through?

Follow me.

Been a while, huh?

Say hello, you two.

MH-3?

My name is Hwang Chi-seong.

Like I said, MH-3.

That's what I know you as, huh?

Names don't really matter, do they, Number Three?

Call me that if you want.

After all, it'll only make things that much easier.

In just a moment,

I'm gonna do some particularly horrible things

to these friends of yours.

Do you remember the old days?

Those experiments you liked to do?

Well, I'd like to do one of my own.

Yong... Yong-seok...

Yong-seok!

Sergeant Kim?

Yong-seok!

Sergeant Kim!

Choose.

You can take one of the three with you.

We keep our promises around here.

What's your objective then?

We're trying to find others like us.

We want to stimulate their desires.

This is the first step in creating a monster.

Time's up.

Don't die! No, no!

No, please!

Jong-hyun!

No! No!

Jong-hyun!

You're uncomfortable

because you're human after all?

It's a meaningless experiment.

If what Number Three here saying is really true,

there'd be a lot more MHs to show for it.

It's clear to me that your experiment hasn't amounted to much.

You're simply being far too greedy.

At this rate, you'll kill them all.

Your time's running out.

Hurry up and choose one.

Don't do it, Sergeant Kim!

You can't!

Yong-seok.

This is all my fault!

No, it's not, Yong-seok.

No one's thinking that. You just...

gotta survive.

The hell do you think you're doing?

We're the same, you know.

If I let you end up like this,

I'll just give up on everything too.

I'm gonna get everyone out.

Reckless bastard.

Get up.

Let's go. Let's get out of here.

Kill them all.

I'll do it.

Don't let me down this time.

Are you sure this is the only way?

That was new to me.

I've seen monsters' desires several times before,

but I've never been so immersed like I was with Yi-kyung's.

She might still have a chance though,

if she can recognize that all of this is fake,

like I did.

You think you can save her?

I at least have to try.

I can't give up on her.

Then I'm coming with you.

You just woke up a second ago.

What if that monster takes over again?

No.

- You can't. - Hey.

I'm sorry you're always waiting, but...

Yi-kyung is my priority.

I can't protect you as well.

I need to save her

no matter what.

You should go now.

And don't come back.

Forget it.

She didn't want me there.

Hey there, hottie!

We meet again.

See that? Told you we're meant to be.

Have a look.

It's your child, Yi-kyung.

She's looking for her mom.

It's not.

I'm telling you, it's your newborn child.

It's not!

Are you sure? Then you don't mind if I kill her?

- Yi-kyung? - No, no, no... No!

Leave her alone!

Drop the act now.

You know your maternal bond doesn't go that deep.

Or do you even have such a thing?

You can't, you can't, you can't.

Just be honest. You wanted to kill her.

Isn't that what you truly wished for?

It's not, it's not, it's not!

Then do you want to protect her?

You think you can do it this time around?

I can protect her.

Please, I can do it! I can protect her.

Yi-kyung!

That's the monster you created.

She was born this way because of you, and now she's killing people at random.

Do you think that's okay?

Even though she might kill your real child this time?

Just kill her.

It's the only way to protect your own child.

Yi-kyung!

Yi-kyung!

Get a grip!

Yi-kyung!

That thing's trying to hurt your child!

Just a moment.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

I'll be right back. Just a moment.

I must be losing my mind. Shit!

Sergeant!

If you go, you'll die.

Why did you do it?

Why?

Why did you do it? Why?

Seo-jin!

Serge!

Where are we going?

Back where you came from.

Things are finally coming to fruition.

It'll be different this time.

I have a feeling something exciting is about to happen.

Take me there.

To the stadium, let's go.

Is it true that the Crow Platoon arrested Ye-seul?

Why?

Lady, you still haven't found Seung-wan?

Does this mean he's a monster, or that he's hiding?

Jeez, man, why does that even matter right now?

They'll kill him either way.

Hello, sir. Chief Ji has just come out.

OFFICE

Now they've entered the workshop.

Hey, where are we going?

You're doing this 'cause you feel bad, right?

It's okay. I understand now.

Hey.

Why aren't you saying anything?

And now you're ignoring me?

Mom, I did everything you asked for!

Ye-seul.

Help me, would you? Hmm?

From now on, those with symptoms

who hide it from us will have to face immediate judgment.

Did you know about this?

I knew nothing about this.

Mom, let go.

Mom! Let me go!

Your actions have put me in real danger.

And this is the last thing I can do to help you.

Now leave. This is the way out of here.

- Or just go back to Master Sergeant Tak. - Wait, Mom.

Mom! What are you saying right now? I know I messed up.

- Why are you doing this to me, Mom? - Get... Whoa!

Why do you keep on calling me Mom?

Don't you realize your mom died of monsterization a year ago?

Do you know how desperately I wanted to hear the word "mom"?

I wanted to hear it, even if it was just in a dream.

But not from you.

From my son.

That's right.

Yeah, my son.

I must really be going crazy.

We were close for only a short while, I almost thought my feelings were real.

And so I nearly made a terrible mistake.

What, what is that over there?

You should've just left when I gave you the chance.

Mom, I'm really... Why are you doing this?

I definitely saw them going into the workshop.

But...

Wait, Mom. Mom!

Mom, what's going on? I'm scared.

Ye-seul, say hello.

This is my son.

My son! My son!

Hey there, jerk.

I see you're still alive.

How long has it been?

I'm telling you now...

...there's nothing we can do.

I know.

You said he told you to wait.

We'll send a signal.

Yi-kyung!

Yi-kyung, stop.

Come on, we gotta go back!

You gotta stop. Please, try to wake up!

Yi-kyung! Yi-kyung!

We won't last long in here.

If you're suggesting we should just leave them...

We gotta pull them up and get them out of here.

Oh, God. Oh, no!

We can't go back up there yet.

What are you... Are you insane?

Hey, untie this. Untie it now. Let go!

Let me go!

Let me go!

No, no! Chan-yeong, what are you doing?

No, no, no! Put me down right now!

Park Chan-yeong!

Cha Hyun-su!

Cha Hyun-su!

Cha Hyun-su, wake up!

Mom!

Over here, I'm over here!

Hey, Mom, I'm over here!

Yi-kyung.

We gotta leave now.

Hurry, let's go.

Who you see is not your child.

Your real child is waiting for you.

We gotta get out of here.

Let's go.

No.

Right now, we gotta go. Come on.

I can't.

- Let's go. - No!

No! Let go!

No! No!

Cha Hyun-su!
