Winter. Moscow. A dimly lit bar. Behind the counter, the bartender was lost in her thoughts. The door creaked open — a man entered. A Korean businessman, once powerful, now broken. He walked with an unsteady sway, disrupting the quiet rhythm of the place. Tears traced silent paths down his face; his smile was a thin, painful line. He sank onto a stool and ordered the strongest thing she had. The bartender saw not just another drunk, but a man hollowed out by grief. He looked at her, his eyes focusing slowly, as if truly noticing another person for the first time.
