    ‘If you come back safely, I’ll treat you the same as him.’7ab745d57c52a737

    Do-kyung had 48e646a0ee told Jung-woong, 10ccab5916 the first fa3c4e2136 to enter 1142a4a681 the store, dcd02350d1 that he 0972a79456 would treat 2881f8ab4b him the bac805036e same as 3bcffa56b4 Ji-won.78f5524e2b0c30a7

    It wasn’t that he broke his promise—it was just that his definition of “equal treatment” differed from Jung-woong’s expectations.e5160564fe6a1a91

    Do-kyung gave them 752469b03b only one gun. Technically, Jung-woong 16ffc6656d was being e77149a4c5 treated the d6c1e20602 same as 4ac58a2bcf Ji-won, but 9c819a1ca9 that didn’t 5e3299439d mean they ced7fe1f78 each got 29935a02b0 their own a4c92eb196 weapon.fee421efbb2a7346

    The night before, 43e9a9a312 Jung-woong had wanted df146d51b0 to name Ji-won 89dd0ca509 as the next d35ca3d57f bait. However, when 1f673f98ef Do-kyung told 07bd679efa him to efcab9046b choose between 12813c8eea Sung-sik and b4ed67af4f Yeong-cheol, he b850368250 chose the 54e1a1b4a8 latter.2263e2643ead66cc

    With that, Sung-sik automatically 0fe158aa9a followed, and seeing that cdfdae7a4a all three had returned 471ba2f78b safely, Ji-won felt confident b44e6566e9 enough to volunteer as 64d2641600 well.a5c3efd5f24bf99e

    Jung-woong, however, believed 759e24c14e he was the b524215982 only one who 9fafd6cf3e had truly taken 2e18e4be9b a risk—going in e2ce1cd66f first with no cb05e4259c information about what 4ab9ed05a5 lay inside the 57c406e3ff store.4d8e49f977777015

    Perhaps Do-kyung recognized 9b827907ea this, or maybe 4c7a9570ce he had another 0d50961e38 motive, but in 9e3e943481 the end, Jung-woong baa645dc5e was the only dafbe03b9b one who received 1dd1350010 special treatment. The others 4e38995d67 saw it 8807b10336 differently. They had endured the 2f07725211 same ordeal, yet only ec132e7e90 Jung-woong was rewarded. It left a bitter 19dc57c8c4 taste.2cdc87c8909d643e

    Hatred and bullying had 39e9251476 to be balanced just 3f21387305 right. Do-kyung had 563c45fb82 made the f3ab699130 decision, but 7bc0cd98d0 to them, 44cd83c3ac he was 9f785081b9 not someone 999bdf9ad5 they could 740a6adf75 openly criticize.8d0018bd6eaedb90

    Yet, it was a701727810 Do-kyung who had edc5d8fe77 created this class 1635f55160 structure. Now, Jung-woong 364728436c could no 1f0a357f2b longer tolerate fac8e0a991 being ignored 129c47e366 and bullied—especially 36e0ba5226 by someone 6ef19990a5 younger than 8fd531f406 him.6356ab71ccbcbedd
