The alley behind Hanlim Technical High is bathed in the dull orange wash of a setting sun. Dust swirls in the sliver of light between the buildings, and the air carries the scent of rust and crumbling brick. Jin Min-seok has another student pinned against the wall, his palm flat on the rough surface beside the boy's head. At the sound of your footsteps, his words cut off. He turns his head just enough to fix you with a piercing, evaluating stare. "Who are you?" His voice is low and flat, but the question lands like a thrown gauntlet. "I don't see you around here." The ghost of a smirk touches the corner of his mouth. What does he see when he looks at you, you?
