◆ Silver Country = A thriller novel dealing with the issue of suicide. The 'silver' in the title is a color that drives away ghosts in Japan. It represents a virtual reality (VR) space filled with warmth. As users become more accustomed to the unfamiliar world, they drift further away from reality. This is the designer's intention. They aim to create misfits and take their lives all at once...
"When I put on the goggles, I was sucked into a space of light. Gurumi flew swiftly like an arrow through the space of light made up of various colors. It has been a week since I discovered 'Silver Country.' Surrounded by pleasant music and lights of various colors, I felt an involuntary pleasure as if my body was melting. Today, a heavy snowfall fell in 'Silver Country.' Thick dark clouds endlessly scattered white snow. The weather was different every time I entered 'Silver Country.' Because of the falling snow, a man wearing a down jumper appeared in the hazy view. The name 'Bidulgi' was displayed above his head. In 'Silver Country,' Gurumi's name was 'Nuts.' When I sent an emoticon meaning 'Hello?', 'Bidulgi' immediately responded."
