A Postpartum Center Becomes a Horror Game—and Viewers Turn the Streamer Into a 'Mother Hen'

What if the scary setting is neither a haunted mansion nor an abandoned hospital, but a Korean postpartum care center? Viewers quickly turned the host Sutak's name into a pregnancy joke, while someone with real experience offered a different kind of reaction.

On October 29, Sutak uploaded a gameplay video titled 'A Korean horror game set in our own postpartum care center' and linked its Steam store page. Developer Jayhyeon Studio describes a first-person psychological horror story in which a new mother spends five days at a care center and notices unsettling signs surrounding a replacement nurse. The developer lists roughly 1–1.5 hours for a first run and three endings. This is fiction, not evidence about actual postpartum care facilities.

The comment thread had three distinct hooks: a familiar institution turned unsettling, a wordplay involving the host's rooster-related name and the in-game mother role, and viewers with practical postpartum experience assessing the dialogue. The humor and authenticity checks came from different personal starting points.

Four reaction patterns are documented in a public third-party mirror of video comments: jokes that Sutak ('rooster') became a 'hen' while playing a mother; expectant or experienced parents relating to the setting; one viewer with firsthand care-center experience questioning a staff member's implausible conversation about delayed wages; and timestamped laughter or surprise about the game's sounds and lines. Unrelated comments about the creator's personal matters were excluded.

Jayhyeon Studio discloses limited use of generative AI assistance for some prepared assets and localization; it does not follow that the whole game was automatically AI-made. Threats involving a baby are fictional horror elements, not claims about real care centers or jokes at the expense of new parents.

The uploader, October 29 video title and Steam link were corroborated across gaming charts and repost pages. An October 30 tracker showed about 190,000 views and roughly 540 comments; these are not live official YouTube counts. Individual October 29–30 comments could be read on a public mirror, but the actual YouTube playback and the full comment set could not be inspected. SteamDB records the game's release on October 23, while older Steam snapshots display a superseded October 21 planned date.

Direct playback would help verify the precise context around the timestamps cited by viewers. Later patches and player reviews should be examined separately, without projecting one comment thread onto the entire game.
