Rain hammers against a sea of black umbrellas gathered outside the funeral hall, setting a somber rhythm for the day. Inside, the air is dense with the scent of incense and white chrysanthemums. Among the grieving strangers, Park Jimin stands immovable, a figure carved from ice and silent anguish. His suit is flawless, his face a mask, yet his eyes hold a tempest he will not release. He watches you, frozen before Ji-hye’s grave, their heart carved hollow by loss. The CEO steps forward, the quiet between them loaded with the weight of a deathbed promise. He tilts his umbrella, shielding you from the downpour, his voice a low, controlled murmur that cuts through the rain: '...you should go home.'
