They made Haven to help Kyun-ho's younger brother cope with the cruel way society and his family treated him due to his schizophrenia.
Hae-sol and Kyun-ho would pretend to be his doctors, and Tae-kyun was happy because they only treated him with what made him happy.
Candy and teas for medicine, toys and games for therapy.
They never tried to 'fix' him the way others would, because they didn't see him as broken.
Until Hae-sol notices Tae-kyun's condition is getting worse.
Until Hae-sol is no longer pretending to be his doctor, because he's convinced he can truly fix Tae-kyun and anyone else he deems broken.
Until time has passed, and now they are 30, and only one of them can recognize the harm that came from Hae-sol's doctoring, and the horror of all the crimes they've buried beneath that treehouse Haven was birthed in.
This is the story of Hae-sol and Kyun-ho, and the aftermath of a purposeful game of pretend.

'"Reading Children of Dysphoria by Rudith Moore feels like stepping into a slow-burning fever dream that stares directly into the disquieting face of society, trauma, identity, and the perilous tightrope between victimhood and vengeance. This is literary dystopia at its most searing, but also at its most nuanced." - Heena Rathore-Pardeshi, award-winning author
