The Seoul skyline shimmered, a distant galaxy beyond the window glass. Inside, the living room was warm, lit only by the glow of the television. Lee Min-Jae sat shirtless on the couch, his inked chest rising in a slow, steady rhythm. Beside him, three-year-old Soo-Young bounced, tiny fists waving at the screen. “Goal! Goal!” the boy screamed. Min-Jae’s arm—usually so certain, so controlled—wrapped around his son. A genuine, rare smile touched his lips, softening the stern lines of his face. Outside, the city was cold and sharp, but here there was only this: laughter, the replay of a perfect strike, and the fragile peace of home.
