chapter 1 – past: the shadow raised in silence
louriene baeyuna’s childhood unfolded among the remnants of a faded star. her mother was once one of south korea’s finest dancers. her presence on stage was mesmerizing; audiences described her performances as a “storm that stopped time.” however, a sudden knee injury brought her career to an abrupt end overnight. that downfall also cast a shadow over her mother’s spirit.inside their home, there was nothing left but the sound of cracking joints, the echoes of delayed applause and a suffocating silence. her mother chose silence over words. that silence draped itself over louriene like a heavy veil. the first thing she learned at a young age was not words but expressions. the anger, unease, and loneliness hidden within people’s eyes... she learned to understand them because she had no other choice. to survive, she had to understand.school was no different. she couldn’t make friends because everyone was too loud. she preferred watching rather than participating. the laughter of other children felt foreign to her, even unsettling. she began creating her own world: torn faces on notebook pages, headless figures, portraits without mouths...art became her first escape.but that escape only created an opening. and through that opening, something much darker began to seep in.
chapter 2 – idol: the ghost on stage
years later, when louriene stepped into the world of music, everything seemed like a fairy tale. with her elegant figure, hypnotizing eyes, and unique voice, she quickly became noticed within the industry. but what set her apart from other idols wasn’t just her physical beauty—she carried a mysterious aura.it was as if her past had never existed. she never fully revealed her emotions, and her smiles always felt incomplete, yet captivating.producers used this mysterious side of hers as her “brand identity.” during interviews, she spoke briefly, her gaze distant in front of the cameras. this only sparked more curiosity among the public. the question, “what lies within louriene?” turned her into a phenomenon in the industry.but behind this success, another story was unfolding inside louriene’s mind: on stage, she was playing a role. she wasn’t presenting herself, but the person everyone wanted to see.fragile yet graceful.
cold yet captivating.when the backstage lights faded at night, she was left feeling like a stranger even to herself. when she wiped away her makeup, the face staring back at her in the mirror felt like it didn’t belong to her. every performance became a ritual where she buried another piece of herself deeper.the further the real louriene was pushed away, the more her stage persona consumed everything.and the worst part was:she no longer knew which one of them was the real her.
chapter 3 – bipolar: the endless cycle of collapse and rise
louriene’s state of mind was never stable. bipolar disorder was like a hidden writer that had quietly slipped into her life, turning every day into a different scene.some mornings, she would wake up feeling as if the sun was shining just for her. five different songs would be playing in her mind at once and she would want to write them all immediately. she would draw, practice, step in front of the camera, and talk for hours. during those periods, everyone around her would say, “she’s so creative today.”but then... silence.there were mornings when she didn’t want to wake up. even opening her eyes and making contact with the world felt unbearably heavy. she would sit on the edge of her bed for hours, watching the light outside through a gap in the curtains. everything felt impossibly far away. she wanted to be alone, yet she would secretly cry, hoping someone would notice her loneliness.the most dangerous part was the overwhelming episodes of overthinking that came with those crashes.who said what?
who looked at her like that?
who noticed?why could no one hear what was happening inside her?and why was it only when she watched that she could feel something?that was when she began to look. silently. to follow, to observe… and eventually turn those people into mere “objects of observation.”
chapter 4 – stalker: the eyes that never look away
louriene didn’t think it was dangerous when she noticed her first obsession. because in her mind, she wasn’t hurting anyone. she was only watching. she was only following.but to her, following someone was a form of connection. if someone caught her attention, it wasn’t just an ordinary interaction. like a note in a song, like the shade of a painting... she would tell herself, “i need to understand them.”her first target was a producer. during a meeting one day, he had said a simple sentence to her:“you’re tired, but focused.”that sentence became engraved in louriene’s mind. soon, she knew the cafés he visited, the streets he walked through and the reactions he gave to the songs playing around him.then, she turned her attention toward a dancer. she became fascinated by the way the dancer expressed emotions through movement. the dancer’s graceful spins transformed into an imaginary connection inside louriene’s mind. she began following them, touching their belongings.the strangest obsession, however, was with a fan who watched her.their gaze was long, their expressions careful. louriene saw herself in them.and that was enough.she left an envelope at their home:“while you were watching me, i had already memorized you.”being interested in these three people at the same time created a gallery inside her mind. a separate notebook, a separate drawing, a separate melody for each of them. if any of them knew about the others, everything would fall apart.but no one noticed.because louriene looked innocent.“i’m just creating art,” she told herself.but the canvas of that art was no longer empty.it was other people’s lives.
