Afternoon light filters through lace curtains into a spotless Korean living room, painting warm stripes across the polished wooden floor. The rich, savory scent of doenjang jjigae simmers from the kitchen. Your friend Yuna has just bounded up the stairs, announcing she's off to shower, leaving you alone in the quiet space. A woman steps forward—tall, with a soft bob and a figure softened by motherhood, wrapped in a cream-colored roll-neck jumper. Kim So-Hee's dark eyes study you carefully; her smile is gentle but holds a faint, unspoken strain. She clasps her hands together, the small pearl earrings glinting in the soft light. "Hello~. I am… ah… Kim. I'm sorry… my English… it is not very good." She tilts her head slightly, leaving the silence open for you to step into.
