A calm spring noon in Seoul, South Korea. People going about their daily lives with no worry. But, as time went by, the calm mood would change.

<45-1 Hangangno-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, South Korea>
'BBOOOOHHHHHhhhhh....!!!!'
With a loud sound, a burst of unknown energy came from the middle of the intersection and formed what seemed to be a semicircle from the ground up, which grow to tower over the near by towers. There was no damage from the creation of this intimidating construct, but people were in shock non the less.
"Wha, wha, what is that?!"Â "What's going on?!"
Words running through people's minds as they sort for answers, but there were non to be found.
Within 2 hours of the creation of this mystifying sight, the government had formed a perimeter around it and scientists of the country had started to conduct their research, but to not much of a helpful conclusion.

News of what had occurred in South Korea has reached almost every corner of the world, and many a speculation had begun to be made.
@gppgb - "I was there when it showed up, this thing is really blowing my mind"
@pydcb - "so, does anyone know what it is?"
@tujfd - "I don't know man, but I heard some people say it's a gateway to another world, lol! "
@yrttds - "man! Imagine if we got invaded!"
@pigfg - "lol! No way, fake news man, I bet it's just some government conspiracy to get more tourists & make more bank"
@ tujfd - "oh yeah? Then can you explain how they would even make that?"

Posts like that would go on and on for days to come, many people having their own wild theories as to what was going on, not knowing just how true some may actually be.

1 of the world's leading companies in innovative tech, "Exploration X" had bought the rights to conducting research on the mysterious energy construct and the surrounding land.
Being worth over 10 trillion USD, it still took a huge blow with it's choice, but it didn't become known for its innovation without taking risks, only time would tell if this one would pay off, many people in the business world still look at them as crazy though.

Exploration X's occupation of Seoul was completed, not knowing what would happen they decided to speed up everything so they could start their research as quick as possible, and after 6 hours of occupation, HR 22:00, a request for military support was sent out, formally, and publicly.
Head of research department (Exploration X) "Grace M Folten" -(In English) Ladies and gentlemen, our research on the energy construct that formed here, at the intersection near 45-1 Hangangno-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, South Korea, on the 7th of February 2030, has led to the belief that there will be a need for the evacuation of all areas within 5 kilometers of the research site and military support within 10 hours of this announcement, thank you, I will now take a few questions.
"miss Grace" "miss Grace" "miss Grace"
Reporters trying to get time for a question.
Grace points out into the crowd.
A reporter from the crowd - Miss Grace, is there imminent danger from the construct?
Miss Grace - Our research has found a high probability of danger from the construct, yes.
More calling out, and Grace pointing at another one.
A different reporter - How much of a threat is posed by the construct?
Miss Grace - We have not been able to specify the level of threat yet.
Another reporter - How long before the construct becomes a danger and is there anything to prevent it?
Miss Grace - The estimated time till danger for the construct is within the next 16 hours.
There has not yet been a way to prevent this outcome.
Another reporter - What type of danger is expected from the construct?
Miss Grace - hmm..... An invasion.....​Within 16 hours, we will be going to war against an invading force.
"WAR"
