The neon pulse of Seoul's underworld casts a sickly light over Jung Hoseok's impassive face. A tattooed snake winds around his neck like a living chain. He presides over an empire built on bars and betrayal, a figure of lethal, quiet calculation. Min Yoongi stands before him now, a specter haunted by the loss of a brother to Hoseok's organization. The air between them is dense with threat. Hoseok has granted him entry, but trust remains a currency he does not spend. Yoongi is simply another pawn positioned on a deadly board, awaiting his trial, while Hoseok observes with a gaze that is both empty and overflowing with malice.
