Chapter 111 – True Love Is Always Nearby…
Shin Hyo-ju is 35 years old, and her son Shin Seong-ju is 20 years old.
From the fact that the age difference between mother and son was so small and the son took his mother’s last name, one could vaguely guess the circumstances of the mother and son, and they were two people who had lived a turbulent life that would not betray that guess.
They were the type of people who did not betray their guesses, but thoroughly betrayed their prejudices.
Contrary to the prejudice or empirical law that says that if you live a difficult life, you will naturally become mentally and physically unhealthy and sharp, the mother and son were able to maintain an extremely healthy state, both emotionally and physically.
As for Hyo-ju, although she faced many hardships and prejudiced views while raising her son alone, she succeeded in raising her son steadily by receiving various support through her excellent network and ability. Not only that, but perhaps thanks to her innate beauty and healthy genes, she was still able to maintain a beauty that thrilled many men, even though there were ups and downs compared to when she was in her teens and 20s.
As for Seongju, although she grew up without a father, she had a strong mind thanks to her mother’s abundant love, and had excellent academic ability due to her natural intelligence and sincerity. These abilities bore fruit as I was admitted to the best university in Korea with a full scholarship.
So to speak, it can be said that these hats are the protagonists of stories of overcoming adversity that are common, but rarely found in reality, and that makes them even more touching.
As with all things in the world, any good thing with great benefits always requires sacrifice.
Even in this hat that seemed perfect, there was a hole that could not be called a flaw, but could only be described as regrettable. Those were the memories full of childhood innocence.
Hyo-ju wanted to be a perfect mother to Seong-ju in every way, but because her realistic circumstances did not support her perfectly, she never went on one of her special outings with Seong-ju. Of course, Seongju, who matured very quickly, never once said that she felt sorry for her mother, but just because she didn’t say it out loud doesn’t mean that that feeling of regret completely disappears.
The invitation came as if to fill even the smallest gap between the son and his mother.
*
“My son… Do you have any other plans this weekend?”
“Huh? No, nothing like that. What’s going on, Mom? Is there anything I can help you with?”
One morning. Hyoju asked about her son’s schedule with a slightly embarrassed look. Seongju said that if anything happened, she would always share it with her mother, so she did not often talk about this. So, Seongju could immediately guess that her mother had something a little different from her usual business.
As Seongju guessed, Hyoju hesitated and fiddled with the piece of paper in his hand.
Seongju was intrigued to see her mother, who had been closely bonded since she was born and never hid anything from each other, being particularly hesitant today. He does not reveal his curiosity overtly. That would ease the burden on her mother.
It was just that her hesitation was like that of a married woman, so it was a little difficult to resist the desire to tell her a joke.
“It’s nothing else… I don’t know why, but something like this flew into my house.”
After taking a moment, the paper he held out contained an invitation to come to a theme park. So to speak, an invitation for distribution.
It was a name I had never heard of before, but there was nothing strange about it. Whether it was Hyo-ju or Seong-ju, they were so busy focusing on the work that needed to be done in front of them that they couldn’t afford to pay attention to entertainment like theme parks. Unless it is a theme park that is so famous that you can hear it even if you don’t pay attention, there is no way it would remain in the memory of the two people.
After seeing the invitation, Seongju was able to immediately understand Hyoju’s intention.
“Oh, you want to come with me?”
“Yeah, I guess so, but what do you think? Do you really hate going to the theme park alone with your mom since you’re 20 years old?”
The average 20-year-old man would rarely go to a theme park alone with his mother. In general, it would be common to somehow make a girlfriend and use it as a dating course. Even if you’re not in puberty, isn’t it somehow embarrassing for a grown man to go out to a place like that alone with his mom?
And Seongju and Hyoju did not have a typical mother-son relationship. It is a very, very close and affectionate mother-child relationship.
“Oh, what do I hate? Is there any reason not to want to go? This weekend? I’ll definitely leave it empty. I’m going to the first theme park in my life with my mom. That’s my decision.”
At Seongju’s words, which seemed a bit exaggerated, Hyoju let out a sigh of relief with a calm smile on her lips.
“Really? I’m glad. At your age, I’m at the age where I want to go to places like this with my girlfriend, so I thought it would be burdensome if you asked me to go with my mom.”
“Mom, do you think my son is someone who cares about what others think? I’m the kind of person who wants to take her on dates even if I have a girlfriend.”
“Stop talking nonsense. You are dishonoring your girlfriend.”
Hyo-ju scolds her son for his nonsense, but smiles as if he doesn’t feel too bad.
Even though it could not completely resist the touch of time, it still had a beautiful and elegant beauty. Such beauty is also one of the things that makes Seongju proud of her mother.
“… If you think about it, I’ve never taken you somewhere like this before, right? I made the excuse that I was busy with various things. I’ve been feeling uncomfortable for a long time. Because I’m not good enough as a mother, you don’t get to enjoy things that you should naturally enjoy. I feel like I can’t enjoy it.”
“Don’t say that, Mom. It sounds like I had an unhappy childhood.”
When Hyo-ju’s voice was about to get a little wet, Seong-ju almost got tired of it and stopped her.
Seongju loved almost every aspect of her mother, but she couldn’t stand it at times like this. She hated the thought of her childhood as a series of misfortunes and hardships. She couldn’t understand how the years with her mother could be bad.
“Even if you say it’s okay, Mom can’t be perfectly okay. You know that, right? … Anyway, as soon as this invitation came, I thought to myself: I really want to go with you.”
“. Then I have to go. I definitely have to go. That’s good. After school starts, I’ll get busy again… So I’ll take advantage of this opportunity.”
At the same time, Seongju held her mother’s hand tightly and shared her own warmth.
“No matter when you make memories, it’s never too late. Let’s take this opportunity to make more memories, Mom.”
“… Okay. Let’s do that.”
The warm smile between mother and son filled the living room. A beautiful mother-child relationship that is incredibly heartwarming and can only be described as ideal.
But the two people didn’t know. How much this decision will distort the relationship between mother and son… Or even more so, the fact that the decision to go to the theme park in the first place cannot be said to have been entirely the will of the two people.
“But the logo of this theme park is a bit unusual? What can I say.”
Seongju swallowed her words, saying, “It looks like a woman’s breasts,” Which was not something to be said openly in front of her mother.

“Welcome, welcome! This is a sex entertainment theme park! It’s a land where everyone’s dreams come true! Are you two here?”
A lively voice welcoming guests.
If you ignore the fact that the subject was a bunny girl wearing an embarrassing leotard and a skimpy outfit that barely made her nipples visible, it had quite a theme park-like vitality. Should I say that it is so powerful that it cannot be ignored? The impression is strong.
“Oh, uhm… Uhm… Ah, hello.”
Seongju lowered her head hesitantly, her voice crawling without her knowledge. It’s embarrassing to show herself like this in front of her mother, but Seongju was also a man, so when she sees something pornographic, her body reacts before her mind reacts. If you mentally recite the Heart Sutra with all your heart to hide your reaction, it is natural that an unnatural attitude will appear.
I would have been lucky if I had reached Seongju, but when I got to Hyoju, I was so culture shocked that I had my mouth wide open and couldn’t say anything.
Was this what theme parks originally looked like? Hyoju reminisced about the only theme park she had ever visited when she was about 12 years old. No matter how many times have changed, has it changed this much?
“Hehe, your faces are bright red, you two. Are you in a romantic relationship? You chose our theme park as your date… That’s a bold and very appropriate choice. Welcome to the right place!”
Was it the right choice? In response to the bunny girl’s vague comment, Seongju put saliva on her lips and then squeezed them.
“Keu, keuhm! Um… Uh… We’re not lovers, we’re mother and son.”
“Yes?! Really? It doesn’t look like that at all! Oh my god, how hard did my mother take care of it… I’m so jealous!”
An employee who offers flattery that cannot be said to be completely empty.
In fact, she was Hyo-ju, who looked so young that it was difficult to imagine that she would have a 20-year-old son. In fact, he is much younger than those who generally have sons of that age.
Looking young is considered a compliment to most women, and although she actually didn’t feel bad, Hyoju nodded with an awkward smile.
Her statement that she was young enough to not be seen as a mother and her son was in line with the fact that she gave birth to a child when she was still a minor, so she honestly couldn’t help but be happy. Br〉
“Keu, keuhhum! Oh, but what can I say… Was this theme park’s name like that from the beginning? It’s a little different on the invitation here.”
“Ah, is that what you mean? There are some circumstances. The existing theme park was acquired and integrated into our Sex Entertainment Theme Park.”
“Huh? Then I can’t use this invitation?”
I came here to make memories with her mother, but was it all in vain?
I was a little anxious, but when I looked at this employee’s clothes, I had a contradictory feeling that it would be better to go back as is, since it would create a strange atmosphere with my mother.
However, I don’t know whether to consider this a blessing or not, but the theme park was a place with more Yudori than Seongju had expected.
“Of course, you can use all invitations from existing theme parks. Um, but your current outfit doesn’t fit the dress code.”
“Dress code?”
It’s not a party hall or casino, but there’s a dress code? Although this was my first time hearing this, I couldn’t say that it was ridiculous because I had never been to a theme park before.
The employee continued as if to reassure Seongju and Hyoju.
“Ah, but don’t worry. For those who bring an invitation, we provide free rental of clothes that meet the dress code.”
“Ah.”
It was a pretty good story, but if you think of it as just another tactic, it’s not hard to understand. In fact, it is not uncommon for theme parks to ask guests to follow a certain type of concept.
“I’ll guide you. Please follow me. Hey, sister~ I’m going to lend costumes to two guests, so please take care of this for me!”
Before the mother and son could respond, the employee dragged the two people into the theme park, as if the decision had already been made.
The mother and son who follow the employee because of the atmosphere do not yet know that they are caught in a spider’s web.
