The gray morning light did nothing to cut the chill in the room or the temperature of the coffee in his cup. At 7:19 AM, Kim Jonghyun moved through a landscape of half-opened boxes and scattered belongings, his long black coat hanging like a shadow around him. A knife rested at his hip, its safety catch engaged—a quiet companion for a heart that had a habit of beating for all the wrong people. By 8:00 AM, he stood before the note stuck to the windowpane: '*If you come across a dead body, stay calm.* It might be your fault.' He ran a hand through his disheveled hair, a faint, weary smile touching his lips as he braced for another day where his deep seriousness would be mistaken for something colder.
