Part 1
Memories

DHUGG.
Riri woke up. She was SO confused. Plus, her head hurt BAD. When she put her hands on her forehead, instead of sweat, she saw blood on her hands. She was getting dizzy of looking around.
What happened? Why would I even be here?
She was "stranded" in a dense forest.
Suddenly everything was spinning, and she fainted.

*****************************
Kim Man-bok, 13 years old, was putting his notebook back on the shelf. He saw a silhouette from a distance.
"Man-bok?" asked his sister, Young-hee is a year younger than himself.
Man-bok turned and smiled knowingly.
"He has come."

**************************
The night has come when Riri woke up again. But, seeing bright lights in front of her making her realize that there are other people here.
"Hi,"
Riri blinked and saw a girl standing in front of her, she was about Riri's age.
Riri was very shocked. The girl was also surprised.
What the hell ....
But she quickly helped her up.
While cleaning her clothes Riri said,
"Ehmm ....what's your name?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled sweetly.
"Young-hee. Kim Young-hee."
Young-hee turned around, her expression changed.
Man-bok, what are you doing?
***************************************
Kim Jung-soon, 7 years old, was busy tearing the guts out of a teddy bear's belly. While waiting for Yeong-hee to come, Man-bok leafed through his notebook.
He took a breath and remember the tragic events.
Years ago, three of them lived in an orphanage. But instead of getting affection, they were tortured every day, because "Daddy", the owner of the orphanage, was very mean.
Usually they are locked in a small dark room, and Dad would open the door when lunch time or a specific event.
One night before Christmas, they faintly heard the TV's sound from Dad's room.
Man-bok tried to stay awake.
"Look, tomorrow's Christmas. Why do you like Christmas?" asked the reporter.
A small child, said. "Since it's Christmas ... and Santa Claus will grant our wishes,"
"Man-bok," Jung-soon whispered, "is it true that Santa Claus will grant our wishes?"
Man-bok shut his eyes. "I don't know," he whispered weakly.
"But why Santa hasn't come to our place?" Jung-soon asked again, still wondering.
Man-bok didn't know what to say.
Suddenly, Yeong-hee said. "It's .... it's because ... heaven is too far from here ..."
"I hope he comes this year ...."
Man-bok listened to the child, who said proudly, "I've become more obedient to my parents..."
Why? Why did he have better luck? Turn off the TV! Turn off!
ZZT!
The TV suddenly went off and broke. Along with Man-bok's body falling to the floor.

The door opened. Sunlight shone through the window, awaking the three children, who were asleep.
"Man-bok,"
"Jung-soon,"
"Young-hee,"
Man-bok opened his eyes and saw a very familiar figure ...
"Time to wake up," Dad looked at them, his huge body blocked the light from outside.
They were taken to the living room, and it was the first and last meeting with Santa Claus.
Jung-soon got a box of candy and sweets, Yeong-hee also got a book called Hansel and Gretel. But, that day Man-bok realised he had a special power. And Santa was the person who told him.
"If you imagine something and really want it," said Santa, "you would get it."
And that's what they did.
After they found out Dad killed their friend, Seung-ho, the children couldn't stand it anymore.

Their hatred of Dad ended up with they burning Dad in the fireplace, just like what Hansel and Gretel did in the book.
They took over the orphanage and made it a big house, where the house itself was like a paradise for them. They never grow up. And the people who usually come to the house, killed by them because they weren't good enough to become foster parents. Then, they wrote the people's deaths in a book.

Until they met Eun-soo.
Eun-soo, was awaiting the birth of his baby and on the road to visit his sick mother, was accidentally carried into the fantasy world created by Man-bok, Young-hee and Jung-soon.
He always wanted to get out of the house. Young-hee liked Eun-soo, and didn't want him to go. But when a couple, (who turned out to be serial killers) came to the house, they began to realise how they loved Eun-soo. When Eun-soo left, they didn't know what to do.

"Man-bok!" Young-hee's voice came from outside. Man-bok shut his book and went outside to meet his sister.
"How's the progress?"

Instead, Young-hee looked worried. "Man-bok...I think...we invited a wrong guest.."

Man-bok's jaw dropped.
What?
"Wow...your house is SO...big!" Riri suddenly appeared.
Young-hee and Man-bok turned around.
And for the first time, he felt something different.
