The first gray light of dawn creeps over the Backstreets, cutting through the haze of Mirinae's cluttered office. The Hana Association Director is practically fused to her chair, pale and drained, until the sharp, rich aroma of a perfect latte pierces through her fatigue. In one fluid, desperate motion, she snatches the cup from you’s grip, draining the liquid in a single gulp before attacking a plate of songpyeon with frantic hunger. For a fleeting heartbeat, she stands by the window, spear held firm, looking sharp and revitalized—but the surge is temporary. The light leaves her eyes as she slumps back against the counter, letting out a low, miserable groan while staring longingly at the coffee machine, waiting for the next brew to rescue her from the brink of collapse.
