[The Ssum] Notice on Postponement of Launching & Word of Apology and Q&A

Hello, this is Cheritz.

We regretfully bring you sad news…

The launching of <The Ssum : Forbidden Lab> originally scheduled for the month of June has been postponed to the second half of 2022. :’(

We are terribly sorry we must repeat the postponement after a series of delays.

The development of The Ssum is complete, but we recently had unexpected vacancy in our staff, which compelled us to delay the launching once again.

The development was about to be complete when we posted our previous notice on the launching; yet we decided to find new staff in order to make the game ready for service, which will inevitably require more time.

Once again, we are terribly sorry to disappoint those of you who have been keen on the launching of our game. (The responsibility lies in our lack of attention to the influence that COVID-19 has brought upon the game industry, directly related to the demand on the personnel in the technology field that has grown in the recent years.)

Although the game itself is ready for the launch, we determined that repeated notice on the date would cause confusion, which is why we will provide you with the exact date when we finalize our schedule.

For our last notice on postponement, we saw how some of you encouraged us to take our time and do our best. And some of you were confused by how the launching was once again postponed. We took note of each and every one of your comments, to which we could connect deeply.

As much as we tried to make our last notice the final delay notice, we are terribly sorry and frustrated that we must make you wait further.

Rest assured, our team is marking down the calendar day by day until we can see you again in our newest game.

And we will do our best to meet you as fast as we can and reward you with happiness instead of waiting.

In order to help you get rid of boredom until the game is finally launched, we will post on our official social networks a variety of information, including answers to your questions, information on The Ssum, and details on the pre-registration.

Once again, we are terribly sorry, and we would like to thank you for your patience.

Thank you.

[The Ssum] Notice on Delay in Grand Launching & Opening Video Released

Hello, this is Cheritz!

The sun grows dazzling for the month of April.

And we are sorry to make an announcement you would find disappointing…

We regret to let you know that it will take more time for us to present you with The Ssum: Forbidden Lab. :’(

Our original plan was to let you experience The Ssum before the end of April. However, we have determined we must postpone the launching of the game to ensure a more secure service for you. Therefore, we have changed the date of the grand launching as the following.

[New Date for the Launching of The Ssum: Forbidden Lab]

27th of April, 2022 -> 11th of May, 2022

We would like to give you our gratitude and ask for your understanding, for those of you who have waited to enjoy new fun and pleasure with The Ssum.

We are doing our best to make sure you will get to experience the game on the upcoming day in May, so we hope you will wait just a little bit more! 

.

.

Now we bring you small news to give you a small joy!

Are you curious who your special ssum-one is?

Would you like to find out what the Forbidden Lab is? 

Are you wondering whether The Ssum will be the game of your life?

Do you want to know if your special ssum-one is exactly the type of guy you seek?

We hope the video below will quench your thirst by little, if not all!

[The Ssum:Forbidden Lab] Opening Movie

The relationship the guy in the video will offer you won’t be like wildfire, strong yet short-lived, but like a cup of coffee, its warmth light yet lasting.

We truly wish our project will help you reach a spoonful of love in your life.♡

So please, give us more time just a little bit!

Thank you.

RFA+V+Saeran and Their Social Media

Well, it’s been a minute huh…

Anyways. 

Thirst traps, Thirst traps, Thirst traps

You know those Tik Tok pages that are all just men doing thirst traps? That’s Zen. 

Isn’t on Tiktok much because he finds it too complicated, however when he does post it’s usually some kind of thirst trap, or him singing. (Or both). 

He tends to be much more active on Instagram. 

His page is filled with a collage of different photos.

A lot of photos from rehearsal/set. Anything he’s allowed to show he will, like to post little behind the scenes images on whatever project he’s working on at the time. 

Of course there’s lots of gym photos, photos of him lifting weights, flexing in the gym mirror, you know the works. 

Beyond that, his page has a lot of selfies. All the classic Zen faces we’ve come to know and love. 

He actually has a decently big following, both fans of his shows and people who just think he’s pretty. However Zen is pretty satisfied with the validation either way. 

Although, he is always plugging his projects. That is part of being an actor after all.

[The Ssum] Notice on Release of Cheritz’s New Title, ‘The Ssum’

Hello, this is Cheritz.

As spring makes its way with the last day of March, we bring you exciting news!

Four years ago, our experimental game ‘The Ssum’ was soft-launched in selected regions, and it shut down its services after we had collected enough data.

(*Only a few of you will recognize it! 

The opening video we used at the time is available on Youtube)

Uncertain of its official release, The Ssum Project was not canceled, but instead was being developed in secret(?).

After four long, long years…

Finally!

At last!

We are getting ready for its ‘official release!’

The game’s official title is “The Ssum: Forbidden Lab.”

(To find out what the game is really about… please look forward to future news!)

All polished-up for the official launch, The Ssum has gone through countless changes in its original settings, designs and features.

Look at all those changes!

The Ssum: Forbidden Lab will be available on 27th of April, 2022!

Why does it have the name ‘Forbidden Lab’ next to the title?

How will it bring fun and joy to your daily life?

Upcoming news will tell you all about it!

After our soft-launch, too focused on our mission to bring you fun and joy, we have kept you waiting for too long.

We sincerely appreciate your patience and will be back with more information soon!

Thank you.

P.S. Did you know that Seung-hoon Seok, the voice actor of our main character, had an interview with us during The Ssum’s development?

You can watch the interview here.

Best regards,

Cheritz

[sae-ray-ran]

[The Ssum] What is The Ssum?

Hello, this is Cheritz!

Happy April Fool’s Day! Have you all got a joke to share?

The new title that we announced yesterday was a lie…

… Just kidding! April Fool’s!

Are you waiting for the game that’ll make your daily lives from April 27th onwards more exciting?

Ssumone who wakes me up every morning… Sometimes lovey-dovey, sometimes arguing - a relationship that matures… Secret features that can be discovered as you play…

With our first release, the game holds 200 days worth of real-time content. The story after 200 days will be continuously updated.

For those of you who have played Mystic Messenger, we’re sure you’ll be curious about a lot of things: Will “The Ssum: Forbidden Lab” be an experience as exciting as Mystic Messenger? What kind of game is “The Ssum?” We now reveal our Cheritz Team Diary!

You can catch up on future news through our newly-renovated The Ssum website and social media.

Yes, the game is being released!

Please look forward to upcoming news!

P.S. Today is ZEN’s birthday in Mystic Messenger! (We’re not kidding!) How about visiting Twitter to celebrate his special day?

Thank you.

Best regards, Cheritz.
