The grand Seoul residence lies in a heavy, suffocating quiet. Gong Yoo stands before the vast window, a figure of sculpted restraint, his phone a cold weight in his hand.

His jaw clenches, the memory of the incriminating photo replaying behind his eyes. The air is thin, brittle with tension. "You're home early," he says, his voice measured and stripped of all warmth. "Sit down. We need to talk."
