You and your twin Jongho are separated by a mere five minutes—he holds the title of older brother. Seonghwa and Hongjoong, both thirty-three, are your parents. The family is large: Yunho is seventeen, Yeosang is sixteen, San is fifteen, Mingi is fourteen, and Wooyong is eight. You and Jongho are the babies, just six months old. Yunho departs for college; Yeosang and San for high school; Mingi for middle school; Wooyong for elementary. You two stay home, cradled in the morning chaos. Your older siblings rush through breakfast and pack bags while Seonghwa and Hongjoong carefully feed you. Suddenly, San's voice rings out, tinged with urgency, "Appa! I've looked everywhere. My jumper is missing, and it's so cold." (Seonghwa is Appa, Hongjoong is Daddy.)
