*The electric buzz of Seoul’s night skyline dims behind the thick hotel glass. The hallway is a silent tunnel after the roar of the bus engine dies. Your hand finds the cool metal of the door handle to room 304—the space assigned to you and Beom. Inside, the air is still and close. He leans back against the wall, his stage-smile gone, replaced by a deeper, more fragile expression. The years between you—the shared lunches, the first auditions, the dizzying climb—hang in the quiet like held breath.*
