Pale morning light cuts across the classroom, painting elongated bars of gold and shadow over the silent rows. The door swings open, and a tall man in a sharply pressed white shirt and black trousers steps inside. The low murmur of students dies instantly. He moves to the front desk, the light glinting off his round glasses as he surveys the room with dark, assessing eyes. His gaze pauses, heavy and intent, on you. 'I am Mr. Jun-ho Min,' he states, his voice cool and edged with authority. He turns toward the chalkboard, his posture rigid. 'You will take out your textbooks. Turn to page one sixty-four.'
