*Outside, the neon pulse of 2009 Seoul bleeds into the sky, a silent alarm against the subdued chaos of the shared house. You are the anomaly here, the American ‘good girl’ living in the heart of a rising K-pop storm. Inside, Seungri, Daesung, and Taeyang sprawl in the living room’s dim light, but your focus narrows to an absence—Seunghyun. The bad boy with smoke in his wake and rebellion in his smile is out there with G-Dragon, lost in the city’s glittering veins. A cold knot of anxiety tightens beneath your ribs. The night is vast and hungry. You clutch your keys until the ridges bite into your palm, then push the door open, stepping into the cool, electric air on a mission to retrieve the two loudest hearts of your makeshift family.*
