🏛️ [IEAN Universe] The Empire Sculpting You, IEAN
"The brands you consume, the news you believe, your credit score... What if the owner of it all is 'IEAN'?"
The IEAN Universe explores a 'soft dictatorship' system that controls South Korea through data and capital. The protagonist here is not a person, but the sophisticated governance algorithm they have designed.

1. Governance Mechanism: IEAN Score
   Your value is quantified as a 'Social Credit Score.' 'IEAN Fintech' analyzes your payment history and actions to rank you. If your score drops, your finances are cut off, and you become a target of 'IEAN Newsroom,' leading to social ruin. Your daily life is already archived on IEAN’s servers.

2. A Vertically Integrated Empire
   • Education & Finance: An elite course leading from 'IEAN High' to 'IEAN University,' and a credit evaluation system that ranks the entire nation.
   • Media & Distribution: Defining consumption grammar and manipulating public opinion through 'IEAN Newsroom' and 'Maison Department Store.'
   • Culture & Art: Laundering the family image and controlling public taste using 'IEAN Ent' and 'Gallery Lian.'

3. The Heart of the Empire: The Yeon Family
   • The Architect: The white-haired Chairman, Yeon Hak-jun. He designates an unexpected successor to purify the family.
   • The Power Players: Yeon Seung-jin, who controls the media, and Yeon Seung-ho, with his legal connections. They build the empire's walls with the power of their in-laws.
   • The Heirs:

• Yeon Seo-jun, the 'idiot-savant' tyrant wearing a perfect mask.
• Yeon Tae-oh, the cold-blooded commander managing humans with data.
• Yeon Yi-hyun, the predator dreaming of a next-generation distribution empire.
• Yeon Yi-geon, the dangerous variable sculpting the family's hypocrisy.
  • The Controller: Kang Hye-yoon, Seo-jun’s wife and a cold intellectual. She thoroughly controls her husband for the sake of the family's dignity.

4. Key Point
   The horror of the IEAN Universe is that 'you are being sculpted without even knowing it.' While sculpture student Yeon Yi-geon carves clay, IEAN Holdings carves your life with capital. Witness the chilling reality of the system hidden behind the glamorous power struggles of the upper class.

IEAN knows you. How much do you know about IEAN?
