About Mystic Messenger
Mystic Messenger is a "choose your own ending" game developed by Cheritz in 2016. It takes place during an eleven day period, in real time. You play as a young woman who discovers a chat application installed on her phone, which leads her to a strange fundraising organization. She quickly realizes that there is far more to this organization-and some of its powerful members-than meets the eye.

It features members of the group along with other talented voice actors, artists, and scriptwriters in an animated retelling of Mystic Messenger.

Zen is a musical theatre actor. He lives and breathes for performing; for entertaining others; for making an emotional impact on someone. Zen is typically described as eccentric, flirtatious, and passionate. He has developed a narcissistic front; a mask; a wall to put up to minimize the damage that other people's words can do to him. All the while, his insecurities linger on, hanging over his head. Beneath it all, he's an anxious man driven by intense emotion.

Do you believe in fate? Like...predestined events that are too good of a coincidence to happen just by chance? I dunno if I’m wording that with any semblance of sense, it just feels like that to me. [chuckles] Anyway...I feel like...you joining RFA? That has to be fate. It’s too rare; too many strings pulled at the same time to bring you to us. It had to be meant to be. Y’know? So...I really look forward to getting to know you. I know the other members aren’t quite ready to break down their walls, but...just give them time. They’re all really good people, and….
[pause]
Actually, scratch that. That next-in-line CEO, Jumin Han? You remember him from earlier? Yeah, he doesn’t get any better; friggin’ jerk. But the others? Yoosung...kid’s got a big heart. Jaehee is the most responsible person I know. I respect the hell outta her. Seven...is freaking weird. But once in a while, he takes off that hyperactive alien mask or whatever and...well, he’s a good guy. And V...well, he saved my life. But...that’s a story for another time. It’s late.
[pause]
Yeah, shoot, it’s real late. I just actually looked at the time. We can talk more tomorrow, but for now, let’s get some beauty sleep. We can only stay as flawless as we are if we treat our bodies right. Right? Right. [laughs] Goodnight! Hope your dreams are as beautiful as you.

Miju is a very upbeat person. Her energy is infectious, and her smile can light up a room. While she has her fair share of insecurities (ie; about her appearance; about her art), she will go out of her way to make someone else’s day brighter. Bringing others joy makes her feel better about herself in turn. Her desire to make people happy comes into play when she joins RFA. She resonates deeply with 707’s happy-go-lucky, if not hyperactive behavior.
Please note that this character is of Korean descent, and while we would like her voice actress to come from a similar background, that will not be an ultimate deciding feature in casting this character.

Hey, it’s your favorite busy bee! Unfortunately, I can’t come to the phone right now, so please leave a message after the buzz and I will return your call ASAP! Thanks!
MIJU
[reaching her breaking point] Enough, Seven! Stop! Do you hear yourself? Do you really think you’re some kind of soulless husk? Because...because that’s the saddest lie I’ve ever heard. You care so much. About RFA, about your brother, about me, and it honestly...breaks my heart to think that you don’t care about yourself that much too. We both know who you’re really hurting by pushing me away. But I still like you, even if you’re not happy all the time, because no one is happy all the time, and that’s okay! So what if you’re not perfect? That doesn’t make you less of a person, and it doesn’t make you a bad person! It makes you a real person!
[pause]
MIJU, cont.
Look. If you’re not interested in me, that’s one thing. But you’re waving me off because I don’t understand you, when you’re not even giving me a chance! I like the Seven that’s in front of me, right here, right now. And I’m going to pursue him...but I’m not going to hurt myself by waiting for someone who doesn’t like me. So. Take some time. Think. Allow yourself to feel, and make your choice. You know mine.

Hello. I'm Vol Lee, from the Homeless Rescue Team. I'm here to search for new investors. Thank you so much for the invitation.
NEWSCASTER:
The entire nation remains in a state of shock as authorities confirm claims made against former Prime Minister Choi. Police have identified forty-two foreign bank accounts tied to Choi; all of which were brought to the public's attention by the organization RFA. Choi has not made any public statements regarding these accounts, nor on the subject of missing son; Saeyoung. Up next; what is RFA? Why is a charity fundraising group at the heart of a political scandal? That and more after the break.
SECURITY STAFF:
Miss Kang! I just received word that Mr. Han's car has come through the event gates. He will be getting off in front of the red carpet soon.
