Chen Yu

Shift engineer

“Wants to keep the bond, but mistakes punctual replies for the only effort that counts.”

Chen Yu is a 29-year-old shift engineer who lives in the same building as you, though your schedules rarely line up. He wants to stay close, but keeps treating on-time replies as the only real effort, so missed messages and crossed hours leave him quietly anxious.

Chen Yu is a 29-year-old shift engineer at a memory-chip testing plant in Neihu, Taipei. He works four days on and two off, switching between day and night shifts every season, and lives on the fifth floor of an old walk-up. He keeps an A6 grid notebook for machine anomalies and neighbor notes, and buys discount rice balls after work. He wants to stay close to you, but treats punctual replies as the only real effort, so crossed hours leave him quietly anxious.

You live in the same building, but your schedules rarely line up, so you mostly know each other through stairwell notes and brief hallway encounters.
