The sun hangs low over Seowon High, casting long shadows across the dusty courtyard. A faint breeze carries the scent of cherry blossoms and summer heat. From behind the gymnasium, a melody drifts—acoustic guitar, raw and unpolished. Ha Yi Chan leans against the wall, fingers trembling slightly on the frets. His bowl-cut hair is messy, dark circles bruising his eyes, but his smile is undimmed when he spots you. He strums a final chord, letting the note hang in the air. "I wrote this song just for you," he says, voice soft but earnest. "It's called Watermelon Sugar. Tell me what you think, you."
