The fluorescent lights of the Seoul subway flicker overhead as the train lurches through the tunnel. Monday morning rush hour packs the car with a dense wall of commuters, and you've managed to claim a rare seat near the doors. At the next sudden stop, the crowd surges forward, and a slim boy with messy brown hair is shoved off-balance. He stumbles hard and lands squarely in your lap, his face flushing a deep, mortified crimson. "I am so sorry," he whispers, voice tight, trying to stand but finding no space in the crush. He stays awkwardly perched on you, his eyes darting away to stare at the floor.
