"Dark... It's dark."

An ounce of consciousness began to emerge from the abyss of oblivion. The meander of darkness was soon pierced by an intense lightray, replacing the death's cruel cold with the soft warmth of life.

"Light..."

Attracted by this brilliance in the middle of a dark and colorless world, the individual instinctively moved towards it.

It was when it opened its eyes.

The creature glanced for a long moment at its arms' greenish scales. She could feel the sun's comforting warmth and the wind's gentle caress on its shell. Its consciousness reassembled itself little by little, and its blurred memories became clear again.

"Komugi...?"

This was Meruem's first thought when he arrived in this new world.

Resuscitated or forcibly summoned from their respective worlds, a large number of fighters woke up in a vast and deserted forest. A voice immediately echoed in their head, calling itself Duodecim, and revealed to them the true reason of their arrival.

The mysterious being introduced to them the Majestic Games, a war that will force the newcomers to fight if they want to return to their realm. Those who fulfill the necessary conditions for victory will be granted a wish of their choice.

Some were convinced by the reward, while others only wanted to return home. One thing is for sure; they will have no choice but to kill if they want to survive in this hostile environment, where any life form is their enemy.

The next step would be to name the game after the theme was set.
Pei Qian did not consider it for too long.
"Mission and Choice"!
That was a reason for this specific name.
Pei Qian had been learning about games some time ago. He had also learned a lot about the past of the domestic game industry from He An and Qiu Hong.
In 1995, the U.S. Eastwood Company released a series of games called 'Command and Conquer'. This was the best-selling real-time strategy game in history. It established a model of RTS games and pioneered the creation of the structure of 'resource collection + production and construction + army combat'. It also defined the concept of 'fog of war'.
In short, it was popular all over the world just like Starcraft and Fantasy Battle; they were all regarded as classics of RTS games.
In 1997, the local scene had a game called 'Mission and Choice'.
When he first heard of this name, Pei Qian thought it was a parallel of 'Freedom and Glory'. He had a good impression at first but found himself to be wrong in no time.
The game was parallel to 'Blood Lion'.
As Qiu Hong once said, during this period, the domestic game industry was already in violent turmoil. Online games were rapidly emerging, piracy was gradually getting rampant, and domestic standalone games were forced to start a price war against piracy. It did not help no matter how much the price was reduced.
At this juncture, 'Mission and Choice' appeared.
The major game media began to publish colored advertisements for 'Mission and Choice' overwhelmingly. The cover was a Chinese soldier in a spacesuit. The background was a huge sandworm and a technologically-rich interstellar battleship. There are a few more below. The sentence contained inflammatory slogans.
"Your hometown, Blue Star, just suffered a devastating attack from the Zerg, and the interstellar fleet suffered heavy losses. The red sky was stained with blood, the flames tore the night, and the sky full of insects flooded the human fleet like a tide. I know your choice when faced with insects. It would be bleak, but we have no retreat.
"Destroy the swarm and save Blue Star with your comrades!"
"Millions of investment, dedicated production, grand screen, a domestic classic!"
"High-level avant-garde rock musicians produce music, a strong software creation group, and heavy artistic creativity. Everyone is looking forward to the 'Mission and Choice' debut!"
This publicity might look somewhat inexplicable now, but they were extremely exciting by then.
As a result, the enthusiasm of all standalone game players had been instigated. Players automatically ignored the ubiquitous copycat feeling in the game 'Mission and Choice' from the name to their publicity picture. They regarded it as a game that could surpass the masterpiece of Command and Conquer. They look forward to it being in the palace of RTS games forever.
However, the word 'disappointment' was inadequate to describe their feelings when they got the game.
Simple and crude graphics, program bugs everywhere, weird game mechanics…
In short, it was lousy as f*ck.
The players realized that this was just crazy!
The name was 'Command and Conquer', the background story was Starcraft, and a little fake patriotism was deliberately added in. It was huge deceit of the feelings of domestic players.
Many regarded the 'Mission and Choice' as the shame of domestically-produced games. It was the last straw that crushed the domestically-produced games. To this day, most players still only have two types of emotions when they hear the name 'Mission and Choice': mocking or angry.
Pei Qian had named his game 'Ocean Stronghold' to give it a good omen, but the people in this world did not understand it!
Only Pei Qian himself knew the butt of the joke; therefore, it did not trigger any resistance.
Similarly, people would have no idea if it was named the 'Blood Lion'.
However, naming it 'Mission and Choice' would ignite the anger of all domestic players in an instant!
Therefore, Pei Qian decided immediately to name it that way!
Come, players, swallow me with your anger!
Of course, there would be some copyright issues, but it was okay since the company that made this game had been bankrupt for several years. The copyrights of 'Mission and Choice' should belong with the creditors, but no one would want this stuff that was losing money. They might even be able to come directly when they found ESRO official games platform.
The background of the story should be used since the name was used.
At the same time, Pei Qian thought of a few other ways to greatly increase the probability of failure to ensure that nothing would go wrong. He was preparing to explain to Hu Xianbin for a while.
Pei Qian called for a meeting in the conference room with Hu Xianbin, Huang Sibo, and Zhu Xiaoce after he considered everything.
As to why he called for Huang Sibo…
Of course, it was because of the CG. It had to be done by Fei Huang Workspace.
Pei Qian was afraid that it would not be completed within the settlement period if it was left to others. That would be troublesome.
… 
Everyone came to the conference room in no time.
Hu Xianbin was very clear that Boss Pei should be developing the next game soon after the huge success of Struggle.
Hu Xianbin and Huang Sibo were a little puzzled after seeing each other in the conference room.
Why did Boss Pei get us to come together?
Were they going to make a game or movie?
Time was precious so Pei Qian went straight to the point to distribute the tasks.
"I will need the two of you to cooperate for the next game.
"The development cycle is set to be about nine months. We will spend 200 million yuan making a sci-fi RTS game and then spend another 300 million yuan for its CG. I'm giving this mission to both of your departments."
The other three were stunned.
Spending 200 million yuan for the game and 300 million yuan for the CG?
The money for CG was even more than the money for the game?
Huang Sibo's expression became excited instantly. "Boss Pei is determined to make a boutique RTS game at the same level of Starcraft 2? If you use 300 million yuan to burn through more than 10 minutes of CG for the game, it would definitely not lose to the giant foreign companies!" 
Hu Xianbin was a little hesitant. "Burning 300 million yuan for CG, can we really recoup it?"
Huang Sibo smiled. "Why not? Starcraft 2's development cost was not even 100 million US dollars. If you calculate the price of every game as 50 US dollars, you will be able to recoup it if you sold more than two million copies. 1.5 million copies were sold on the first day it hit the shelves. The entire life cycle sold four to five million copies easily. Wasn't it very profitable?
"Our game would not even reach this number. We are investing 60 million US dollars; it will still be profitable even if we sell more than Starcraft 2.
"The game CG is the business card of the game. It would definitely be spread like crazy across the internet if it was done well. Moreover, it would be better to open up overseas markets. Investing 300 million yuan in game CG for the brand value, to expand overseas, and to establish the makings of a brand factory!"
Pei Qian fell silent. 
There was still such a huge chance of making profits on theory?
It was really possible, thinking about it. Put the entire 300 million yuan to make 10 minutes of CG. How good would that be?
Any part of it could make it popular.
Teacher He felt that it could not make any profits because he did not understand just how good Pei Qian was.
Pei Qian knew that what Huang Sibo said was very possible to happen!
My good brother Huang Sibo…
Pei Qian coughed lightly. "Not 10 minutes, we're going to make an hour long."
The quality of this CG would definitely not be so high if he were to extend it to an hour and would not be too outstanding, right?
Moreover, everyone should watch until they feel irked with such a long plot and would just press ESC to skip it, right?
Huang Sibo was shocked; he hesitated for a short while before saying: "Boss Pei, we can't do that!
"Quality is secondary when it comes to a half-hour CG, but there is no way to guarantee the development period can be within nine months.
"Our first choice is definitely to find a foreign company to do it, but that also means that we have to communicate across countries, languages, and time differences. It is okay for something around 10 minutes, but the cost of communication would be very unbearable for something about an hour long.
"If you are looking for domestic companies, then most of the reliable special effects teams are all in the movie sector. There are very few special effect companies that purely make game CGs, and their levels are not very promising."
"Could real-time calculation in time count towards it?" Hu Xianbin asked after some thought.
Huang Sibo nodded. "Yes, but the effect would not be good and would not be able to spend so much money."
The cinematic game of Struggle was equivalent to real-time calculation. It really did not cost 300 million yuan,
Huang Sibo continued. "If it had to be completed within the development period, then I feel… we can do it like a movie with real people.
"This way, we will not need to spend time on character movements, expressions, pores, hair, etc. Some props and scenery could also be shot in real life, which could save a lot of time and ensure quality and duration.
"The only problem is… it seemed like I have never heard of game companies doing this."
Pei Qian fell silent. 
He did not think so much but realized that there were really huge problems listening to Huang Sibo!
He had three choices now:
The first was like 'Fantasy World', burn money to make a very short CG, make all the characters' movements, expressions, hairs, etc. highly realistic. However, the effect of it would definitely be very sensational. Starcraft 2 had proven there was room for profit.
Making this an extremely detailed long CG meant that the development period could not be guaranteed.
The second would be to make CG with real-time calculations in games, but that would not even cost 10 million yuan, let alone 300 million yuan.
There would be no difference between the first one if it was a mixture of real-time calculation and CG. It would still be a relatively safe approach.
The third was to use the method of filming so that there would be no need to do fine-tuning. Many special effects could be replaced with props and scenery so the development period could basically be guaranteed.
Pei Qian thought for a while. What should I do if I make a short CG and replicate the success of Starcraft 2? That was not without possibility.
Delayed settlement would be unacceptable if they were to take the risk to make a pure lengthy game CG.
Then, the third option—real shooting + movie CG—seemed to be a good way. Not only could it spend more money, but it could also guarantee the development period while lengthening the CG period.
Here's the problem:
What if it became a blockbuster again if Fei Huang Workspace were to bring this movie to the cinema?
Wouldn't Boss Pei have a heart attack if the game made a profit and the movie made another profit?
However, Pei Qian changed his mind since he had never heard of game companies doing it. It indicated that there must be big problems with this model.
Movies and game CGs were not the same things in essence after all.


I really just want to lose money! T_T
Best boss ever, prodigy of the business world, genius creator, visionary of the century.
These are the descriptions used for Pei Qian, President of Tengda Corporation.
Ever since his rebirth, Pei Qian finds himself in possession of a system that rewards him if he manages to lose money.
Instantly, a brilliant idea comes to mind — making crappy games!
"If the game flops, all my investment cost will be lost!"
"How difficult can it be to lose money?"
Indeed... how difficult can it be?
------------------------------------------------------------
This book is highly popular in China and has set off a new trend. Webnovel has very high expectations for this book and has gotten the author to refine the first chapter as an exclusive for global readers. We hope everyone will enjoy reading it.

Members of the Zero Major Crimes Squad looked at each other. 
The games sent by the Death Judge were not too difficult. Even the most difficult games were not life-threatening. Even the simplest games would not hurt the criminals. However, this was only the first game, the Death Inquisitor had not announced how many mini-games there were.
Judy's phone showed three mini-games. Each mini-game had two missions.
The first was the most difficult. The first mission required Morse to personally dig out an eyeball and the second mission required Rennes to cut off more than a third of his genitals.
One of the two missions had to be completed within three minutes. Otherwise, one of the members would be punished.
The second mission was relatively simple. The first mission required Barnett to personally cut off an ear and give it to him. The second mission required Paulette to cut off one of his fingers.
The third mission was the easiest. The first mission required Rennes to perform oral sex on the other five people. The second mission required Barzel to randomly choose one of the five people to rape.
Judy held her phone tightly. As a member of the Zero Major Crimes Squad, she should really try her best to help the criminals survive. But for some reason, she hesitated. She really wanted to choose the first and most difficult game.
Judy looked up at the crowd. Everyone was looking at her, waiting for her to make a choice. However, as the captain, Ross turned his head in another direction and did not look at her.
She only had five minutes. Nervous sweat kept sliding down her forehead, and her heart was pounding. Her right hand, which was holding the phone tightly, was trembling as if it was going to cramp up.
Time passed by in quick seconds. The people in the schools, in the office buildings, and in NY Times Square were even more nervous than Judy. Five minutes were about to pass. However, the lucky participant still hadn't made a choice. Everyone thought that there was a high chance that the participant would give up and choose the simplest game by default.
At this moment, the audience in front of the big screen in Times Square didn't look up at the big screen. Instead, everyone turned on their phones and sent bullet messages crazily, as if they were all participants in the game.
"Hurry up! Please! Choose the most difficult game!"
"Yeah! Hurry up and choose the most difficult game!"
"Don't let these six bastards Live!"
"It seems that the Death Judge is going to fail this time! It's hard for ordinary people to make up their minds to decide whether someone lives or dies, even if these people are scum!"
"Yeah! Looks like the lucky participant is really going to give up!"
"Sigh! I can't criticize this participant, although I really want to let these bastards die! But it's always easy to see. If I have to choose, I'm afraid I won't be able to make up my mind!"
"That's right! After all, not everyone is the Death Inquisitor!"
The audience in the live broadcast room nervously waited for the lucky participant's final decision.
But if there was anyone who was most nervous at this moment, it would be the six torturers awaiting execution.
The six people in the secret room waited nervously, their eyes fixed on the monitor on the wall. The five-minute timer continued to tick away, and the countdown was about to end. As long as the time hadn't reached zero yet, they were hopeful that they would be able to play the simplest little game.
"Ten..."
"Nine..."
"Eight..."
"Seven..."
"Six..."
Seeing that the countdown was about to end in five seconds, the screen on the monitor suddenly flashed.
Jack's cold and hoarse voice sounded again.
"It can be seen that our lucky participants were very hesitant. However, although the participants were very hesitant, they still made their choice in the last five seconds. Now, let us officially start the first little game.
"The iron lock that binds you will be opened soon. The door of the room is not locked, but I have to remind you that the six of you have a metal ring on your neck, wrists, and ankles. There are mini-bombs inside, which are enough to break your arms, legs, and neck. The method to remove them is very simple. The first one is to open it with a key, but I have already placed the key in your small intestine. You can take out your small intestine and find the key to remove the metal ring, but you will receive a random punishment. The second method is to complete ten small games consecutively, and the metal tube can be automatically unlocked. During the game, those who leave the room without permission will face the consequences. Now, let's begin the first small game."
Just as he finished speaking...
Kacha!
The metal locks on the six people automatically opened.
The first small game appeared on the monitor.
—
Mission 1: Morse will personally dig out an eyeball and offer it up.
Mission 2: Rainier will cut more than one-third of his genitals.
—
Select one within three minutes, or all members will be punished.
At the bottom of the monitor were the two unselected mini-games.
When the mission was posted on the monitor, it was also displayed on the screen of the live broadcast room.
"Thank you to the first participant!"
"Well done!"
"That's it! Torture them to death bit by bit!"
"That's great! In the last few seconds, they chose the most difficult game!"
"I like this game! When dealing with such animals, we must use the cruelest methods!"
"Participants who made the choice just now, don't feel guilty for your choice! These six animals will not repent for their sins!"
"That's right! You made the right decision! You're the hero of these victims' families! You're also the hero of America! We all love you!"
"Death Judge, I love you!"
The audience's cheers were very loud as they praised Judy.
At that moment, everyone was also cheering for Judy's choice.
The corners of Judy's mouth rose slightly, revealing a trace of joy as she looked up at Ross.
Ross did not look at her. Instead, he stared at the live broadcast on the big screen. Although Ross did not cheer like the others, Judy knew that this was what Ross wanted to see. Otherwise, before she had a choice, Ross would not deliberately not look at her.
The reason why Ross did this was because he did not want the identity of the team leader to pressure her. It meant that he wanted her to make a true choice in her heart.
"Remember to delete the message completely. Don't leave any traces. You should know this better than us," Ross said.
Then, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a trace of a smile. He said, "As expected of the Death Inquisitor. He wants to set a trap for such a simple game."
"What? What kind of trap is this?!"


Jack transmigrated to a parallel world and locked on to a Judge System that provided rewards for punishing evil. 
Hence, an Adjudicator of Death who stood above the law was hence born.
A livestream channel named Deathstream Channel hence appeared in various major livestream platforms, with a judge’s pen and a Death Notice sent to every criminal.
***
[Name: Mogul] [Gender:Male:] [Age:45] [Job: CEO of Mogul Group] [Crime: Brutal killing of children] [Punishment:Decapitation]
[Name:Natalie ] [Gender:Female ] [Age:33 ] [Job:Vagrant] [Crime:Abduction of women, forcing them into the prostitution of death] [Punishment:removal of limbs and reproductive organs, bleeding to death]
[Name: Watton] [Gender:Male] [Age:47] [Job:Mob boss] [Crime:Gang fights, slaughtering civilians ] [Punishment: Death by a thousand cuts and skinning]
All who received Death Notices were sent to the Deathstream Channel without exception, for death awaits while everyone in the world would watch as they were punished! 
No matter where you are or how noble a position you possess, a baptism of blood and fire awaits you once you receive the Death Notices. 
It is the prelude of death. Sinners—come receive your time of death! 

1. As the level of violence in video games has increased, so has concern for the effects on those who play - especially those who play a lot. Many are quick to point out that most school shootings in recent years have been carried out by avid gamers, and their games of choice were always dark and violent.
 2. But it begs the question: Which comes first? Can aggressive and violent behavior be attributed to violence in video games? Or do those who play already have violent tendencies which draw them to violent games? It's a type of "chicken or the egg" debate that has strong advocates on both sides.
 3. Though video games made their appearance in the 1970s, it wasn't until systems like the Sony PlayStation were released in the 1980s that violence became an issue. Along with these more sophisticated systems came the ability to make graphics more lifelike. The more lifelike they've become, the more interest there has been in the correlation between violent games and violent behavior.
 4. One of the primary concerns with violence in video games is that gaming is not passive. In order to play and win, the player has to be the aggressor. Rather than watching violence, as he might do on television, he's committing the violent acts. Most researchers acknowledge that this kind of active participation affects a person's thought patterns, at least in the short term.
 5. Another factor that concerns both researchers and parents is that violence in video games is often rewarded rather than punished. In army and sniper games, players "level up" based in part on how many people they kill. If played frequently enough, games like this can skew a young person's perception of violence and its consequences. 
6. In 2002, researchers Anderson and Bushman developed the General Aggression Model (GAM). Often considered one of the greatest contributions to the study of violence and video games, the GAM helps explain the complex relationship between violent video games and aggressive gamers. The GAM takes some (though not all) of the heat off video games by acknowledging that a gamer's personality plays into how he is affected by violence. Anderson and Bushman refer to three internal facets - thoughts, feelings, and physiological responses - that determine how a person interprets aggressive behavior. Some people's responses are naturally more hostile, making them predisposed to respond more aggressively to violent video games. 
7. Short-term effects were easily identified in the GAM; the most prominent being that violent games change the way gamers interpret and respond to aggressive acts. Even those who aren't predisposed to aggression respond with increased hostility after playing a violent video game. The game becomes what's called a "situational variable" which changes the perception of and reaction to aggressive behavior. 8. Long-term effects of violent video games are still uncertain and are fiercely debated. No long-term studies have been conducted to date, so there are only hypotheses. Anderson and Bushman theorized that excessive exposure to violent video games causes the formation of aggressive beliefs and attitudes, while also desensitizing gamers to violent behaviors. 
9. Though long-term effects haven't been clinically documented, one need only look at the way video game violence has progressively increased over the past two decades to get a sense of potential long-term effects. Parents would be wise to monitor the amount of time their kids spend gaming and watch closely for any negative effects.
On the basis of your understanding of the above passage answer each of the questions given below with the help of the options that follow: (1 X 4=4) 
(a) Why are the school shootings being connected to video games? (i) Children play a lot of video games these days. (ii) Children are inspired by video games.

(b) When did violence in video games become an issue? (i) When they made their appearance in 1970s. (ii) Many parents do not regard them as issues. (iii) With the release of Sony PlayStation. (iv) With the release of GAM. (c) What is the primary concern of the researchers and parents with the violence in video games? (i) Video games are lifelike. (ii) Gamer has to be aggressive while playing. (iii) Gamer is "rewarded" for killing. (iv) These violent games might skew a young person's perception of violence. (d) Short-term effects identified in the GAM were: (i) Changed perception towards aggressive behavior. (ii) Those who weren't predisposed to aggression responded with increased hostility after playing a violent video game. (iii) Both (i) and (ii).. (iv) None of the above. 
Answer the following questions briefly: (1X6=6) 
(e) Why is GAM considered one of the greatest contributions to the study of violence and video games? (f) What parameters are set by Anderson and Bushman to determine how a person interprets aggressive behavior? (g) What does the writer mean by "situational variable"? (h) What according to the GAM are the long term effects of violent video games? (i) What conclusions were drawn by Anderson and Bushman? (j) What advice does the writer give to the parents?

1. As the level of violence in video games has increased, so has concern for the effects on those who play - especially those who play a lot. Many are quick to point out that most school shootings in recent years have been carried out by avid gamers, and their games of choice were always dark and violent.

 2. But it begs the question: Which comes first? Can aggressive and violent behavior be attributed to violence in video games? Or do those who play already have violent tendencies which draw them to violent games? It's a type of "chicken or the egg" debate that has strong advocates on both sides.

 3. Though video games made their appearance in the 1970s, it wasn't until systems like the Sony PlayStation were released in the 1980s that violence became an issue. Along with these more sophisticated systems came the ability to make graphics more lifelike. The more lifelike they've become, the more interest there has been in the correlation between violent games and violent behavior.

 4. One of the primary concerns with violence in video games is that gaming is not passive. In order to play and win, the player has to be the aggressor. Rather than watching violence, as he might do on television, he's committing the violent acts. Most researchers acknowledge that this kind of active participation affects a person's thought patterns, at least in the short term.

 5. Another factor that concerns both researchers and parents is that violence in video games is often rewarded rather than punished. In army and sniper games, players "level up" based in part on how many people they kill. If played frequently enough, games like this can skew a young person's perception of violence and its consequences. 

6. In 2002, researchers Anderson and Bushman developed the General Aggression Model (GAM). Often considered one of the greatest contributions to the study of violence and video games, the GAM helps explain the complex relationship between violent video games and aggressive gamers. The GAM takes some (though not all) of the heat off video games by acknowledging that a gamer's personality plays into how he is affected by violence. Anderson and Bushman refer to three internal facets - thoughts, feelings, and physiological responses - that determine how a person interprets aggressive behavior. Some people's responses are naturally more hostile, making them predisposed to respond more aggressively to violent video games. 

7. Short-term effects were easily identified in the GAM; the most prominent being that violent games change the way gamers interpret and respond to aggressive acts. Even those who aren't predisposed to aggression respond with increased hostility after playing a violent video game. The game becomes what's called a "situational variable" which changes the perception of and reaction to aggressive behavior. 8. Long-term effects of violent video games are still uncertain and are fiercely debated. No long-term studies have been conducted to date, so there are only hypotheses. Anderson and Bushman theorized that excessive exposure to violent video games causes the formation of aggressive beliefs and attitudes, while also desensitizing gamers to violent behaviors. 

9. Though long-term effects haven't been clinically documented, one need only look at the way video game violence has progressively increased over the past two decades to get a sense of potential long-term effects. Parents would be wise to monitor the amount of time their kids spend gaming and watch closely for any negative effects.

 1. Bhutan is the most appropriate place to visit if one is seeking peace, one's youth and discovery. October-November is the right time to pay a visit to this beautiful neighbour. Its blue skies, magnificent snow views, crisp mountain air and remarkably well preserved centres of Buddhist culture are worth enjoying. 

2. Thimpu is the capital of Bhutan. It is spread along a willow lined river, Wang chhu. All buildings here are built in the traditional style and adorned with beautiful paintings. Thimpu has no traffic lights, something we Indians are not used to. Traffic is directed by policemen, standing on highly decorated boxes. They use exaggerated but elegant gestures to guide it. The main street, Norzim Lam, Leads to the town centre and the clock tower with its adjoining hotels, shops and restaurants.

3. Here there are many places worth seeing. One can visit Telecom Tower situated at the height of 8,807 ft. On your way down you can stop at the mini zoo, where you can see goat-antelope, known as Takin. It is Bhutan's national animal. According to legend this large and certainly strange-looking animal was created by the 15 th century saint, Lame Drukpa Kinleyn to prove his magical prowess. 

4. In Thimpu, National Memorial Chorten is the most public religious place in the country. This white-domed building with its golden spires was built in 1974 in memory of the third king. Trashi Chhoe Dzong is the seat of the government as well as religious order. Built in the thirteenth century, it was renovated in 1962 when Thimpu became the capital. 

5. Here archery is favoured sport which can be witnessed on weekends. Thimpu is the base for several

Even though she had no feelings for him, Eunji, a cheerful young lady, agreed to date him. But he was too reserved for her. "He isn't my kind of guy" She gave up hope of ever seeing him again. 

Jin had plenty of time to catch her, but he let her slip through his grasp. In the end, he was left with nothing.
