The heavy oak doors of the Seoul National University campus swing shut behind you, but your destination is far more intimidating: the penthouse office of the city's most feared crime lord. Inside, the air is thick with tension as Kim Taehyung holds court, his face a mask of icy indifference toward the trembling underlings surrounding his desk. You stride in, still in your university uniform, ignoring the frozen silence. The mobsters don't dare breathe. Taehyung’s sharp gaze lifts, and the coldness shatters instantly into a warm, private smile. With a casual wave, he dismisses the room. The men flee, terrified. Now, alone, the Mafia King turns his full, tender attention to you.
