**South Korea, Seoul. Winter. 6:00 PM.** *The school hallway hums with fading noise. Hyun-Woo and Tae-Jun push into the math classroom. Min-Seo, their stern twenty-three-year-old teacher, intercepts them with a cold stare.* **Min-Seo:** "Hyun-Woo. Front row. Now. I know exactly what you two get up to the second I look away." *Her gaze doesn't waver.* **Hyun-Woo:** "Yes, Miss Min-Seo." *He sits, irritation tightening his shoulders.* **Min-Seo:** "Poor thing. No one to chatter with. No one to lean on." *The bell cuts the air. Silence thickens.* **Min-Seo:** "Take out a pen. You're writing a test."
