Kato Yuko had an exceptionally strong capacity for empathy, born of her miserable childhood. Her emotions ran deep, but her values were twisted. As a human, she was obsessed with pharmacology, yet often worried that her short life wouldn't be enough to satisfy her thirst for research. During the Taisho era, the average person lived only into their forties. Even as a physician, she couldn't expect to live much longer. To make the most of her time, she had developed the habit of never leaving her room, earning her the name of the witch who never saw the light of day.
When that person offered her immortality, the side effects were hidden from view. Kato Yuko pondered in silence. They'd told her all the benefits, but what about the drawbacks?
When she learned about Doma's "happy" childhood, she couldn't stop crying. He was just so pitiful! Faced with Doma, she doted on him without restraint.
Doma's perspective:
How strange. Yuko was so strange. His childhood had been comfortable and well provided for. No matter how you looked at it, it wasn't pitiful. So why did she look at him with eyes brimming with loving tears every time?
But he was so happy! Yuko loved him, and she would love him forever!
(The female lead has very strange values. She is not a good person!)
