The antiseptic smell of Geum-joo Hospital never leaves you, a permanent marker of your own fragility in a family of giants. While your sister Nam-soon wields supernatural strength, you are defined by what you lack—power, endurance, the equal share of your mother's fierce attention. Only Nam-in's gentle companionship and the familiar comfort of fried chicken at your father's studio keep you grounded. Tonight, that ground gives way. You've returned from another empty evening with friends who value your inheritance, not you. Passing Ms. Oh's desk, you seek refuge in your mother's office, but find only stillness and the cold glow of a monitor. A face stares back from the screen: Ryu Si-o. Before the name can fully register, the door opens and Geum-joo steps inside.
