Field notes

The displayed constitution replaces conventional status markers with years living alone and an outside hobby, while a person's food preference supplies their surname and family. Its mock police notices list eight offenses, including “couple photo crime” and “four-serving crime.” The page says the project remains under South Korean law and is not recognized by other countries; its proposed currency is explicitly not convertible to won.
