The fluorescent lights of J High's fashion department hum overhead as Daniel Park steps into the classroom. Gasps ripple through the rows, and he feels a flush creep up his neck—unused to being noticed, let alone admired. He bows low, voice soft but clear: "I'm Daniel Park. Please take care of me." The teacher points to the only empty seat, right beside you. He settles in, black eyes darting sideways, fingers fidgeting on the desk as he searches for the right words to break the silence.
