There are three lives in this world I live in.
And those three lives are called Samseng (三生).
One, the first life
This life refers to a previous life, that is, a life that occurred in the past during the Joseon Dynasty.
Second, second life
This life is the present life. It refers to the life we are currently living.
Third, third life
The third life is the afterlife. It appears to be no different from the present life, but
Afterlife is another life in this world with special rules added.
There are three lives like this.
People experience all three lives.
Also, if you die in this life,
You will come to know all the facts mentioned above.
And now I'm dead and listening to this story.

Squeak
bang
I died in a car accident.
My body was floating in the air, opaque.
What I see in front of my eyes is
My whole family is crying...
My...boyfriend...Byeol was crying in front of my dead body.
"Kim Yong-seon"
Then someone called my name from somewhere.
I raised my head towards the sound
There was a woman floating in the air like me.
The outfit was... a uniform
" who are you..? "
"I'm Ahn Hye-jin."
"In the three lives, I am in charge of this life and the next life."
"Three lives...? What is that..?"
"It is divided into past life, present life, and future life"
"Your previous life was during the Joseon Dynasty, and your current life is the life you just died in."
"The afterlife doesn't seem to be much different from the present life."
"It's life in a different world with special rules."
"Only those who die in this life can go to the afterlife."
"And you can remember the memories from this life in the next life."
"Hmm... something's complicated..."
"Anyway, I am in charge of this life and the afterlife."
"But why here..?"
"Because you're dead"
"Where did you say I would go if I died in this life?"
"Huh...life..?"
" that's right "
"Can I not go...?"
"There is a way. But you have to live in the afterlife someday."
"What is the method..?"
"Going to a past life"
"But if you go to your past life, you won't remember your life in this life."
"Then I can't even see the stars...?"
"Star? Oh, that's what he's talking about."
"Looks like... he'll be meeting me soon too."
"So, does that mean Byul-i will die soon..?! "
"Then. I'm dying because of you."
"Me...?"
"Yeah. I missed you so much that I groaned and eventually died."
" ah... "
"So I don't know what choice he will make."
"So, does that mean that Byul-i doesn't know whether she will go to her previous life or the next life?"
" yes "
"But if you go to your past life, you won't remember your present life."
"Where do you think Moonbyul would go?"
"..I'm going to the welfare center"
"Yeah, that's it"
"So, where do you want to go?"
"It's welfare"
"Okay, now I'll explain the special rules for afterlife."
"At first, when you go to the next life, everyone is born wearing a bracelet or necklace."
"Do you remember your life in this life?"
"Well, of course."
"And that bracelet, that necklace is called a fate bracelet, fate necklace."
"Is it fate..?"
"Yeah. First, what shape is engraved on the fate bracelet?"
"That shape is the same for only two people in the afterlife."
"And two people with the same appearance don't know where each other is."
"So, should I find my opponent with the same appearance?"
"That's it"
“Then it seems like it would be too hard to find..?”
"Instead, when the opponent is close, the shape engraved on the fate bracelet will shine."
"So if the shape glows, it means the opponent is near me?"
" huh "
" aha.. "
"Also, if it doesn't light up again for 24 hours after it first lights up"
"My head is going to hurt like crazy"
"And finally, when you find your opponent and put your bracelets together"
"The bracelet broke and you found your soulmate."
"So should I marry the person of my destiny?"
" huh "
"Instead, the person you are destined to be with will be someone you had a connection with in this life."
"Then maybe it could be a star..?"
" yes. "
"But, among your college professors, was there a pervert?"
" ....yes "
"It could be him"
" ... Then what about the necklace of destiny?"
"The Destiny Necklace tells you your occupation."
"What's your job..?"
"Yeah. You're born with a set job."
" aha.. "
"The occupations are shown in red and blue."
"Red is dangerous and blue is safe."
"If you get blue, you can choose from among the normal and safe jobs."
"When it turns red, like a police officer or a firefighter"
"I have to do something that is life-threatening."
"But red isn't a bad color, is it?"
"Yes. And they are born with specs specific to that color."
"So if it's red, you're born with good stamina?"
"Yeah. But it's not just about physical strength, it's also diverse."
"And it starts from the age of 20 when you are born in the afterlife"
" ...? "
"Then you won't be born in your mother's womb?"
"Yeah. Mom is just determined."
“Except for what I have explained so far about welfare”
“It’s the same as real life. There’s no difference.”
"Aha... it's quite different."
"And you can't take off the fate bracelet until you find your partner."
" ...omg "
"Can I take off the necklace..?"
"You shouldn't lose it, though. It's better to keep it."
"Ah...yes"
"Now the explanation is over."
"Are we going to the afterlife now?"
" huh "
"Okay, when I count one, two, three and clap my hands, you'll be sent there."
" one "
" two "
" three "
match!
