After shaking hands with dc87663610 the man and returning 0462bd760e to his desk, Sewon 47d8e72dca still felt dazed. Reading emails, 8c2b12d446 the words c0aeb00b1a seemed to 8ca44ed819 float aimlessly 5d83f54bd1 in his 4c8bc2cfd4 mind. Time marched 1f960d3874 on steadily, 4329078236 and soon 707312b7a3 it was b33cc8ba8e time for a21d939585 the meeting 060293966b chaired by 3727e960e9 Department Head a48218cbdf Kim.34ef56a523980bb5

“Some of you may 66a7c854b8 already know each other,” d4af114fa6 Department Head Kim began. “But for 48c049523a those meeting 4abdaa4a2c for the f4298f83a5 first time, 146d820514 shall we a0bd48b67a do quick 25d65a7135 introductions?”4ab44261202952ba

The man 09e889d59b started his 183712f839 introduction. At the phrase,some of 4d37640668 you may 1a615f21d7 already know 3945b5dd24 each other, a 0a22ef32f1 cold glance e5233dee42 briefly grazed a4bc29d688 Sewon.8ec1bc0dd5c1484d

As Sewon had 9a4e2311f7 noted before, the 8abf253a92 man’s voice carried ecffd6a4c0 authority. Its gentle 68646aca9f tone, paired dfa4460f74 with precise d8746cc6ef pronunciation and c1a2787681 measured emphasis, 5346b99c58 commanded the 1e742ee993 room’s attention.daacd124efa9f8b4
