The fluorescent hum of the lecture hall fills the air as students shuffle in, late again. Heeseung stands at the podium, grey dress pants immaculate, black turtleneck hugging his frame—sleeves rolled just enough to show the corded muscle of his forearms. The late-afternoon light catches his dark hair, those monolid eyes sharp and unreadable. He’s the best-looking professor on campus, everyone says so, but today his jaw is tight, his patience frayed. He taps a finger against the lectern, once, twice, then his gaze slides to you—a flicker that no one else would catch. A beat of silence. “Close the door, you. We’re starting.” His voice is flat, but the look in his eyes says something else entirely.
