Into the book
“Tessa.
Why did you take us in? We don't even know what we're doing.
Don't kick me out even if I do something wrong.
Then Lena… … .”
“The reason I accepted it was because it was cute. I’m just kidding, this was the first disaster shelter built.
If you need any help, you are welcome.
There's no way these kids came here to loot.
"I don't know what the circumstances were, but can we really kick out these kids who came here like this? Lena, you too, the adults will take care of you now, so don't worry and just relax here."
--- p.114

A sandstorm was blowing in from afar.
Jin shouted that he would die if he continued like this, but Mishi spoke as if he had given up on everything.
“If it weren’t for my gall bladder, I would have died as a child.
If you make my entire world yours, then abandon me and tell me to live, do you really think life has any meaning? I should have died long ago, but I guess I'm being punished for clinging to life.
Jin, go alone.”
Jin held Mish's cheek with both hands and pressed their foreheads together.
"sorry.
Leave me alone in a world with nothing but walls.
“Let’s talk about the rest when we get back.”
--- p.150

“Well, I am here.
Of course it was nice when Lena, Flora, and I lived together, but it was also difficult.
But after meeting Dam and Mish, I've only had really happy things.
Meeting friends of the same age, Lena and Flo's tension was relieved and there were only gifts.
Live happily as you wish.
And I will continue that gift.”
Yuli looked at the laughing Dam and wished earnestly in her heart.
'I hope you too can have memories like this with us.
'I hope that I can remain a small happiness in the new world.'
--- p.170

“You know, when I act without thinking, my right hand goes out first.
And then you drop things or break them.
If you try to grab something with your right hand like that, you won't be able to grab it because you won't be able to use your strength, but there's one thing you can grab.
When I hold her hand with my right hand, Lena squeezes mine tightly with that hand.
It's like my lost right hand.
It keeps me from realizing my shortcomings… … .
Fortunately, Lena seems to feel the same way about me.
“Well, I do like it, but I don’t think it means what you said.”
Florian hugged the wall that came to find him and expressed his gratitude.
'Maybe I've thought of you as a god since long ago.
The cheerful god of the forest.
My poor savior who had to take on the world.'
--- p.174

“Aurora, Lena, Florian, Jin, they all looked so madly in love.
Because they all seem to resemble you.
“It’s not about remembering, missing, and loving someone like a flower.”
"wall."
“I can’t love just one being.
So I thought at that time.
I will love this world.
“No, don’t go.
please."
“It’s not your fault.
It was you who taught me love when I was becoming an emotionless monster in the forest, and it was all thanks to you that I was able to come out into the world and use my abilities on my own.
“Thank you, Mish.”
--- p.187

“Until then, I thought my boss had abandoned me.
But the blue world… the gentle breeze, the clear sky, the sparkling lake, it was all a wall.
Dam has always been there for me.
I was the last to realize that, and now that I'm outside, everyone welcomes me.
And then a warm breeze blew, as if someone was stroking me.”
--- p.196

A boy who stopped growing, 'Dam' in the forest
A loving hand reaching out to a broken world


What if you possessed the power to nurture life in a desolate world, yet your growth stalled as you used it, leaving you to witness the aging of your loved ones and their demise alone? What would it be like to shoulder the world to show your beloved friends and newborns the clean air, the clear sunlight, the lush forests, the beautiful rainbows and aurora?

An apocalyptic world where resources are depleted.
Some of the people of the past went into space, and those who remained were left on this barren Earth where it was difficult even to breathe.
In a world that seems to have stopped, like a ruin, the only things that grow are plants and people.
And at the center of it all is Dam, a boy with the ability to make life grow quickly.

The ability to gall is both a blessing and a curse.
He can breathe life into the world, but he is trapped in time, still a fourteen-year-old.
As his family and friends pass away one by one, Dam eventually withdraws from all relationships and goes into the forest.
To be discovered by no one, remembered by no one, and just quietly be alone.
That was the life Dam chose.

Then one day, children appear in the forest where Dam lives.
Misch, Yuli, Lena, Florian.
They are children who have learned to live on their own, relying on each other without proper adults.
Although he appears strong and solid, inside he quietly grows a desire to be protected by someone and loneliness.
At first, Dam pushed those children away, but as he watched them grow and develop, laughing, hurting, and fighting, unlike himself who never ages, he gradually began to open his heart.


The seeds of solidarity blooming in despair
A tender survival story woven by a boy who has stopped growing and the children who live with him.


"The Wall in the Forest 1-2" is a wonderful love story about a boy named "Dam," who has the ability to make life grow but has stopped growing, and who extends a kind hand to a world that has collapsed.
The children in this work have no grand purpose or clear heroism.
Just to exist together, we hold each other's hands, care for each other, and embrace each other.
The attitude of children who protect each other and survive in a devastated world shows us what true 'solidarity' is.

But the world is still harsh and time has stopped.
He feels sad watching his children grow up, unlike himself who never grew up when he was fourteen, but he slowly accepts the fact that he cannot stay with them for long.
And finally, with a cool smile, Dam decides to bring green back to the desolate world.
The decision of the dam is a selfless dedication, a tenderness that is not afraid of being forgotten, and a true love for those who are trying to survive somehow.


As we follow the journey of children cherishing each other's time and wounds and allowing new life to blossom, we too will find a firm root of hope and love blossoming in our hearts as we live today.
With Dam's face smiling affectionately.
