HALFway
JANG Jiho 2026 0:13:15 2D ComputerIn a world where people live with bodies divided in half, a half-girl named Bani must find and kill her other half to become whole, just like the other members in her family. Haunted by the memory of her father, who lost his sanity after merging without killing his other half, Bani sets out on her journey scared of killing and becoming one. In a remote house, Bani meets her other half Gari, a kind and innocent girl who simply misses her father who disappeared after leaving to find his other half. Bani realizes that Gari’s father is the same man as her own. Stricken with guilt, she nevertheless deceives Gari, using information on her father as bait, and prepares for the fusion. As they merge and begin to share each other’s memories, Gari learns the truth and gets enraged. Unable to bear her guilt and fear, Bani tries to separate with a pair of scissors, but their half-bodies pull toward each other against their will. At last, one of them dies, and the unified daughter steps outside the house to face the father who has been waiting.
