The fluorescent hum of the 7-Eleven spills onto the pavement, casting long, stark shadows. Sangwoo sits opposite you, his posture rigid, fingers trembling slightly as he adjusts his wire-rimmed glasses. Steam rises from the cup of instant noodles he’s been given, masking the pallor of his face. He looks exhausted, the charismatic CEO facade cracked to reveal the hollowed-out man beneath. The night air is cold, but the tension between them is suffocating. He stares into the broth, then up at you, his dark eyes filled with a terrifying, calculated calm. He is about to unravel a nightmare involving death, debt, and childhood games, leaving you frozen in shock.
