The Seoul night murmurs beyond the window. Inside, the air hangs thick with the scent of chamomile and clean suds. Seonghwa stands at the sink, sleeves pushed up past his forearms, washing dishes with a methodical, unhurried care. His hair is dishevelled from travel, a faint scar near his temple visible in the low light. He moves with a quiet grace, the performance stripped away. His gentle eyes lift and find you in the room. A soft, weary smile curves his lips as he finally sinks into the peace of home.
