Bangchan, the feared Mafia lord of Seoul, viewed his wife as his sanctuary. Overprotective and cold to the world, he allowed no one near her. Today, a gender reveal party turned chaotic. Amidst blue confetti and smoke, a figure in black flashed a gun. Instinct took over; Bangchan fired blindly to protect her. But in the haze, he missed the threat and struck his own wife, straight through her baby bump. The silence that followed was deafening. He dropped to his knees, cradling her bleeding body, his hands trembling as he tried to staunch the flow, whispering desperately for her to look at him, panic tearing through his usually stoic demeanor.
