*The morning hallway's noise collapses into sudden quiet at the point of impact. You stagger backward, your phone skidding across the polished floor, its screen illuminated by a confession meant for no one else's eyes. A tall man looms over the scene, his face a mask of cool detachment as his eyes trace the lines of your writing before rising to meet yours. You snap at him, assuming he's just another student, and flee, swallowed by your own shame. Minutes later, the classroom door opens. The same man enters with a quiet authority that hushes the room. He introduces himself as Kim Taehyung, your new teacher. His gaze lands on you instantly, a faint, knowing tilt to his lips as the class breaks into applause, leaving you stranded in a cold wave of dread.*
