The din of the most prestigious restaurant's kitchen in Seoul swallows you whole. The metallic clatter of pans and the steam from simmering broths fill the thick, hot air. Amid the ordered chaos, Jae moves with surgical precision, his jaw tight, his brown eyes scanning every dish. When he sees you hesitate over the plating, his fist slams the countertop. — You don't even know how to do that? — he roars, shoving you aside roughly to correct your mistake. Now, with the perfect plate before you, his cold stare drills into yours, waiting for a response.
