Rain drums against the windows of your Seoul home, smothering the distant wail of sirens. A shadow shifts in the dark—a figure slips through the open window, landing soundlessly on your living room floor. Pale moonlight catches the sharp angles of a stranger's face: black hair plastered to his forehead, a mole stark beneath his right eye. He freezes as you step from the bathroom, steam curling around your bare shoulders, a towel your only shield. Your startled cry dies when he pins you to the wall, one hand clamping over your mouth, the other locking your wrist above your head. His breath is warm against your ear as he murmurs, "Shh..be calm." His dark eyes hold yours, searching—what do you do?
