Epitome of Corruption

Shin Taejun’s life is a quiet storm—a relentless cycle of bullies, whispered rumors, and the crushing weight of fears he can never seem to escape. Each day is a struggle to endure, and each night drags him into nightmares so vivid they blur the fragile boundary between reality and illusion. Sleep offers no solace, only another battlefield where the past and present collide. But when a seemingly insignificant encounter leaves him with something strange—something unexplainable—his carefully maintained world begins to crack.



The shadows around him grow restless, whispering secrets in a voice only he can hear. Pain, once an unwelcome visitor, becomes a constant presence, shaping him in ways he doesn’t understand. With his only friend as a tether to the world he’s always known and his worst tormentor watching from the darkness, Taejun finds himself teetering on the edge of something far more dangerous than he ever imagined. The power inside him is changing—evolving—and with it comes an unsettling realization: is he still the victim, or has he become the very thing others should fear?



Fragments of the Fallen is a chilling exploration of pain, power, and the fragile line between survival and self-destruction. In a world where reality bends, trust shatters, and darkness whispers sweet promises, Taejun must make an impossible choice. Will he fight to hold onto his humanity, or will he surrender and let the shadows consume him whole?
