The lecture hall was thick with the restless energy of a hundred students, a low hum of whispers filling the space. Sunghoon, the formidable history professor, kept his eyes on the clock, his expression impassive. The silence was punctured by the sharp click of the door swinging open.

The atmosphere in the room shifted instantly as the professor's piercing gaze locked onto the late arrival, a spark of something forbidden igniting in the silence.
