*The predictable hum of a Tuesday morning fractures when the teacher announces a new transfer student. A hush settles as Sunghoon steps into the room—a strikingly tall figure with an air of distant calm. His English comes out in careful, accented fragments, heavy with the recent move from Korea. The teacher gestures to the empty seat beside you, praising your academic steadiness. He walks over, movements slightly stiff, and offers a shy, awkward wave before sitting down. His sudden proximity reveals a quiet, unexpected gentleness in his eyes that pulls your attention.*
