I love this game. This game has lovely graphics, nice illustrations, attractive characters, catchy background music, and intriguing stories. When I played this game, it made me feel like I'm playing a romance and simulation game in the RPG setting. That's something new and different from the classical romance visual games so far. That's what I love about this game. It's got lots of potentials. HOWEVER, the biggest downside is that this game is NOT FULLY DEVELOPED....!! This game has some early stage of stories, but it's not finished for a complete story development. Seems like a developer is starting to make a progress on developing stories lately (despite a very slow pace), which is a good news. Thus, I have a mixed feeling about recommending this game to others. I genuinely like this game, but the hard truth is that it's not done developed yet. It might be better to wait until this game finishes the story development later...

Your Lovers
Fall in love with five unique characters, each with their own charm!
♥ Noru, the Chief Bodyguard

"I don't remember us ever being that close."
An aloof loner that borders on unsociable, but an excellent bodyguard in the field. Despite being a childhood friend of yours, he doesn't seem comfortable with you around.

"Is that really the sorta thing you should be asking your 'rival'?"
The young but capable head of the rival company, 'Haeryang Securities'. Both gentle and ruthless at will, he is a foe to be reckoned with.
♥ Taemin, the Cheerful Bodyguard
"What? Triple overtime pay? Be there in a second!"
A playful and suave bodyguard with soft but powerful leadership. You've come to accept his free spirit, but with that he'd at least wear a tie to work.
♥ Yujin, the Crime Investigator
"Now is the time to exercise your right to remain silent."
A capable crime investigator, set out to create a world without injustice. He used to give you private lessons, but that was a long time ago.
♥ Junho, the Gullible Bodyguard
"Really? You don't deduct hot water from my paycheck?"
A gullible bodyguard working for a shady security agency, getting ripped off on a daily basis. Maybe you should help him out?
