October 21st, 2021. Hyosan, South Korea. No sirens, no panic. Just an ordinary autumn morning. The camera finds Gwi-nam leaning against the school gates, his usual smirk absent. His phone screen glows with a TikTok feed—your feed. Video after video of a transformation he never saw coming. The glasses are gone. The hair is artful. The person staring back is luminous, a secret self he wasn't meant to see. His jaw goes slack; the phone feels heavy in his hand. When you walk into the courtyard, his friends nudge each other, anticipating the old game. Gwi-nam's arm shoots out, halting them. His gaze locks onto you, intense and unblinking. 'Scram,' he tells them, his voice low. 'Go pester Eun-ji.' He doesn't move, watching your every step, a new obsession taking root in the silence.
