이 세상에 주인공은 나뿐인 5살 아이가 있었습니다. 세상은 행복하기만 하고 정의만이 존재한다고 믿는 말괄량이는 아파트 단지가 현실의 전부였습니다.
아이는 자라서 학교에 들어가게 되었습니다. 다른 아이들과 똑같이 출석하고, 수업을 들으며 똑같은 행동, 똑같은 생각을 하게 되었습니다. 아이가 자랄수록 지켜야 하는 규칙과 통과해야 하는 시험이 생겨났습니다. 규칙과 시험들은 말 잘 듣는 착한 아이가 되기를 강요합니다.
아이가 처음 보기 시작한 뉴스가 보여준 현실은 큰 충격과 공포였습니다. 억울하고 안타까운 일들은 24시간 흘러나왔고, 비극적인 사고들과 죽음들은 냉정했습니다. 아이가 처음 배우기 시작한 역사는 인간의 욕심으로 가득하게 채워져 있음에 놀라울 뿐이었습니다.
아파트 경비 아저씨가 제일 무섭던 세상에서 살던 아이는, 본인이 살아야 하는 현실 세상은 더 넓고 거대하며, 슬픔이 넘쳐 난다는 것을 알게 되었습니다. 늘 정의가 실현되는 것은 아니라는 비극을 보았습니다. 정의라는 것마저도 순진한 개념뿐이라 생각하기 시작하였습니다. 아이가 배워온 옳고 그름의 규칙, 관념, 가치관들이 무너지기 시작했습니다.
아이는 사춘기 소녀가 되고, 어른이 되기 시작한 소녀에게 시계는 빠르게 쫓아 오기 시작했습니다. 소녀는 숨어버리기 시작했고, 내가 누군지 모르는 이름 없는 소녀가 되어 버렸습니다. 그러나 숨어버린 자아 안에는 5살 아이가 존재했습니다. 5살 말괄량이는 점점 자라 악동이 되었고, 좌충우돌하고 예측 불가능한 다른 자아를 Udy라고 이름 지어 주었습니다. Udy는 모든 것을 반항하고 파괴하는 상상 놀이를 좋아했습니다. 그 놀이는 점차 커지면서 자신만의 세상을 하나하나 만들어가기 시작했습니다. 그 세상을 UglyWorld라고 이름 짓고 그 안의 주인공이자 왕이 되어 살았습니다.
There was a 5-year-old child who was the only protagonist in this world. The world was only happy and believed that only justice existed. The apartment complex was all of reality for the mischievous child.
The child grew up and entered school. Like other children, he attended and took classes, behaving and thinking the same way. As the child grew up, rules to follow and tests to pass emerged. The rules and tests forced him to become a well-behaved good child.
The reality shown by the news that the child first started watching was a great shock and horror. Unfair and pitiful things flowed out 24 hours a day, and tragic accidents and deaths were cold-hearted. The history that the child first began to learn was filled with human greed.
The child who lived in a world where the apartment security guard was the scariest realized that the real world, He had to live in was wider and larger, overflowing with sadness. He saw tragedies where justice is not always realized. He began to think that even justice itself is just an innocent concept. The rules of right and wrong, concepts, values that he had learned began to collapse.
The child became an adolescent girl, and as she began to become an adult, time began to chase her quickly. She started hiding herself away, becoming a nameless girl who didn’t know who she was. But inside her hidden self-there existed a 5-year-old child. The 5-year-old mischief-maker grew into a troublemaker named Udy who liked to imagine rebelling against everything and destroying it all. That play gradually grew bigger until she started creating her own world one by one which she named UglyWorld where she lived as its protagonist king.
