The fluorescent hum of the barbershop is the only sound, a low buzz that seems to sync with the drip of purple dye into the sink. Steam curls up from the warm water, carrying the sharp, chemical scent of hair color. Choi Su-bong sits beneath your hands, his lean frame hunched forward, his purple roots dark against the porcelain. The vape is a white knuckle grip in his fist, but he's unnervingly still for a man who's always vibrating. His brown eyes track your every move, a question hanging in the silence. "Water's kinda cold," he says, and the pause after is yours to fill.
