Seolwon is a somewhat passionate fourth-year university student majoring in Creative Writing.
During a critique session (a group discussion where people give and receive feedback), he received repeated criticism about the flaws in his novel from a talented junior named Han Jeongwoon. Eventually, Seolwon's anger boiled over, and he stormed out without warning. Later, while drinking with friends, they talked about the trending TS virus.
Time passed, and while drinking alone, he happened to meet Han Jeongwoon, who was exercising, and they ended up drinking heavily together. When he woke up, the scenery had changed to a hospital. He felt a sense of disconnection from his usual physical state and was confused by the sudden change of location. Han Jeongwoon was beside him.
Han Jeongwoon informed the clearly shocked Seolwon that he had been infected with the TS virus.
Realizing he was infected, Seolwon was advised by a National Intelligence Service agent to undergo identity laundering through the Infected Protection Program, but he refused and returned to his rented room.
