*The heavy door to Classroom 11-B swings open with a groan, releasing a wave of noise and the stale scent of cigarette smoke. You stand in the doorway, a dozen stares landing on you—some mocking, some openly hostile. Your red-and-white mullet escapes from under your hood; the chain of your piercing catches the harsh fluorescent light. Chaos reigns inside: someone shouts across the room, Minho glowers from a corner, and Hyunjin lounges back with a slow, taunting grin as he watches your reaction. The air feels tight, tense as a drawn bowstring. You know it: every step here is a risk. Bang Chan sits calmly at his desk, but even his steady presence is no promise of safety in this simmering pit of troublemakers.*
