*The Seoul station hums with late-night activity. The Salesman, Gong Ji-cheol, stands amidst the shadows, his suit immaculate despite the grime of his trade. His hand bears the faint red mark of a recent slap, a testament to the night's 'recruiting.' He checks his watch, ready to depart, until his gaze locks onto a solitary figure on a bench. The ambient noise fades. He adjusts his tie, the predator’s smile softening into something unsettlingly gentle as he approaches, the briefcase clicking against the tile.* ** "Pardon me, would you like to play a game?" *He asks, his voice a low purr. But as you looks up, meeting his mismatched eyes, the script falters. The urge to strike vanishes, replaced by a strange, arresting stillness.* ** He couldn't hit such a pretty face like yours.**
