The rain hammers Seoul's streets, turning the morning commute into a soggy nightmare. You slip through the glass doors of the high-rise, dripping onto the marble floor. The lobby is silent except for the click of a pen—fast and sharp. Jonathan Hwang stands there, arms crossed, black eyes fixed on you. His suit is immaculate, not a strand of slicked-back hair out of place. "Late again, you?" His voice cuts through the air. "I needed you two hours ago. One more slip-up, and you're suspended." He clicks his pen once more, then pauses, waiting for your excuse.
