I Was Possessed By An Unknown Manga chapter 1

view cover

One day I woke up and saw a white ceiling.

Next to me, a middle-aged couple with unknown faces was holding my hand and sobbing.

Immediately after waking up, I was nervous in many ways, but the doctor came and did some tests, and after all that, I was left alone in the hospital room, so that I had time to think calmly.

‘What is this?’

It seemed that I was possessed, a phenomenon that can only be seen in novels or cartoons.

Other than that, I couldn’t explain my current situation.

Judging from the context of the conversation we’ve had so far, the name of this body I possessed is ‘Kim Yu-seong’, a high school student living in Japan.

It seems that he left the house two days ago to meet a friend and was hit by a car in front of a nearby crosswalk and fell unconscious.

If my soul took the place where the soul of this child named Kim Yoo-seong escaped, I could only say that it was really unfortunate.

It’s because he passed away at the age of playing outside.

I remembered my last memory before I possessed it.

As a graduate student in science and engineering due to a wrong choice at one time, I couldn’t go home for a few days and had to settle for room and board at the university lab.

However, I don’t know whose mistake it was, but a fire broke out inside the laboratory, and I, who was there, tried to get the hard disk containing two years of research data, but I drank a lot of toxic gas and fainted without being able to escape from the building.

Perhaps because he died in the lab, I didn’t possess the body of this boy named Yoosung Kim.

I was happy for a moment at the relief of that damn grad school life, but the excitement quickly subsided.

After all, the guy called me is like a cuckoo who suddenly got caught in the body of a boy named Kim Yoo-sung.

I wondered if I would be able to adapt to life in the future.

Staring blankly at the ceiling, I picked up a small hand mirror that was placed in the closet next to the bed.

The face of the boy I saw for the first time was looking at me through the mirror.

As I smiled awkwardly, the boy with an unusually long bangs smiled as well.

To be honest, it didn’t feel real.

Maybe all of this is a dream right now?

I had such vague hopes, but when I pinched my cheeks, I felt vivid pain.

“Ha. What is this?”

I took a deep breath at this situation where I couldn’t find an answer, and decided to go to sleep and think about it.

***

two days later.

I was safely discharged from the hospital.

Of course, there was no such thing as dissolving the possessiveness as expected.

Rather, the memories of a boy named Kim Yoo-sung naturally flowed into my head as I dreamed.

Kim Yu-seong, a 15-year-old boy, was an ordinary middle school student who was about to enter high school.

He grew up with an introverted personality because he was discriminated against at school because he was born as a second-generation Korean-Japanese born to a Korean father and Korean mother who immigrated to Japan.

Still, there were two or three like-minded friends in the class, and it seems that he had a bowel movement after leaving home early on the weekend to play with them.

Middle-aged couple – So, I returned home in a car driven by Kim Yoo-sung’s parents, and I said yes to the saying that I would be tired, so go up quickly and rest, and then went up to the second floor.

Although it was the first time he had come to this place, he acted very naturally as if he had known it from the beginning.

Perhaps it is because of the memory of Kim Yoo-seong, the original owner of this body.

As I quietly closed the door and entered the room, I felt my mind wandering at the scenery unfolding in front of me.

Everywhere you look, comic books, comic books, comic books, comic books.

Bromides with naked 2D characters hung proudly on the wall, and the showcases were lined with animation DVDs and figures.

I don’t know where this guy, who is only in his third year of middle school, got the money to buy this much, but if there’s one thing that’s clear, Kim Yoo-sung seems to have been a common idiot.

I tend to look for things that people say that people like manga and anime are fun, but I wasn’t really into it, so I was just embarrassed.

First of all, since this is the room I will be staying in from now on, I put away anything that could be properly cleaned and sat down on the bed instead of a chair.

‘Now what?’

Since I haven’t inherited all of Kim Yoo-sung’s memories yet, it was difficult to act recklessly.

In particular, Kim Yoo-sung’s parents were a problem, and if his son, whom he has seen for 15 years, suddenly behaves like a different person, he will feel a great sense of incongruity.

In other words, I needed an opportunity to act according to my original personality.

Fortunately, there was one excuse that suited Kim Yoo-sung right now.

‘Middle 2 bottles’

It is a disease that everyone gets at least once in a time of storm and rage.

Fortunately, before I took possession of it, Kim Yoo-seong was quite obsessed with middle school disease, and if the concentration was so deep, it was enough to grow long bangs following the main character of my favorite comic book.

Of course, it seems that he didn’t go out publicly because of his introverted personality, but parents would already know that their son was stricken with secondary disease.

Now is August.

In terms of semester, the final exams have just finished and the summer vacation has begun.

But there wasn’t much time left.

Checking the schedule on my smartphone, school will start in two weeks.

If you tried to change your image in such a short time, not only your parents, but also the people around you who knew the boy named Kim Yu-seong could not help but feel uncomfortable.

‘Then I’ll have to postpone the middle school for a while.’

After much deliberation, such a conclusion was reached.

It was after I went to high school that I revealed my true personality.

At first, it seemed that I needed to know the tastes and hobbies that Kim Yoo-seong liked, so I turned my attention to the comic books neatly placed on the bookshelf in the room.

Judging from the title, it seems that they started with fighting comics and watched it regardless of genre, including fantasy, cooking, and love comedy.

gulp-

Even estimating from the public eye, it seems that there are well over 100 volumes.

If there was any homework given to me during this summer vacation, it was to be a perfect middle school bastard.

It seemed like it would be quite difficult.

***

Possessed by Kim Yoo-sung’s body, the time I spent as a 3rd year middle school student passed very quickly.

First of all, it was physically short.

August, September, October, November and December.

Excluding the third semester and spring break, it was less than half a year at most.

In the case of the high school entrance exam, I passed without any special study.

I was originally a graduate student in science and engineering, not to mention middle school-level math and science, and in the case of Korean language and history, it was not as difficult as I was worried because it was Kim Yoo-sung’s favorite subject.

Since the soul of science and the body of science and literature are merged, honestly, I think that the score is ridiculous compared to the amount of study.

Anyway, during the summer vacation, I thoroughly studied and reviewed, so my parents and people around me did not find out that the person in Kim Yoo-seong had changed.

The second bottle in middle school is difficult at first, but after doing it, you get used to it and it doesn’t matter.

When Kim Yoo-sung read all the comic books and novels he had collected in the room and memorized the behavior patterns commonly seen by middle schoolers on the Internet, it naturally popped up in everyday life.

When he looked at his cell phone and banged his head against the door of the convenience store and muttered, “Is it a barrier?”, he admired himself.

“Here! Give me insoles and hormones!”

“Yes!”

In the midst of contemplation, I called out to my father, who was working in the kitchen, at the additional order that came from Table 3.

“On table 3, one insole and one hormone!”

“I’m leaving soon!”

Kim Yoo-seong’s parents ran a small meat restaurant in Tokyo.

To be precise, it’s a Korean restaurant, and they sell yakiniku as their main menu.

The shop is small, but manages to get a lot of regular customers.

Kim Yoo-sung was able to buy all kinds of goods despite his young age as a middle school student, thanks to a part-time job he received from helping his parents’ shop whenever he had spare time.

It was lunchtime, and I found a man and a woman seated at a table while dealing with the rush of customers without a break.

A tall, handsome boy like a celebrity is probably around the same age as me.

The girl sitting next to her looked a year or two younger than the boy, but she was also a beautiful woman with distinct features.

“Oppa! Oh, try it.”

“Yuika, the people around you see it.”

“Ah~ My sister feeds my brother, how about it~”

I realized something after staring blankly at the two people who looked familiar.

Unless my memory is wrong, the boy’s name is Sakamoto Ryuji.

The main character of ‘Scramble Love’, a popular love comedy that I encountered through an Internet humor article before possessing this body.

Although I was a little younger than I originally knew, I couldn’t forget the natural shaggy cut that looked like it just popped out of that host bar.

And it came naturally to me.

This boy named ‘Kim Yoo-seong’ whom I possessed is living in the world of comics.
