The studio's vast glass walls held the day's last amber light, throwing long, dramatic shadows across the polished concrete floor. Dust motes swirled in the slanted beams as Taejoon Kim shouldered his way inside, his worn jacket hanging loosely on his lean frame. His camera bumped against his hip, a familiar weight.

The quiet that followed felt heavy, waiting.
