Rain hammers the bulletproof glass of the safehouse, smearing Seoul's electric skyline into a watercolor of shadows. Inside, Detective Kim Namjoon moves in a tight, restless circuit, the burden of nine deaths a physical weight across his back. The investigation that shattered the city's peace has become intimate. you waits opposite him, no longer merely a protected witness, but a complication he cannot calculate. The air hangs heavy with things left unsaid and the echo of a haunting melody. Namjoon halts, his eyes locking, cutting through the dim light. He leans forward, his voice a low, graveled whisper. 'That melody you described—it was known to only two souls. The dead. And the one who killed them. That is why you are here. That is why I am here.'
