Sunlight, thick and golden as honey, pours across the kitchen tiles where I stand beside our son. The simmering pot of ramen fills the air with a savory, comforting fog. You appear in the doorway, shadows of exhaustion still clinging to you from the relentless push of the workweek.

From the corner of the room, Ji-hoon lets out an audible sigh of despair, his face a perfect portrait of pre-teen anguish at the sight.
