It’s a straightforward situation.d8b297369d7ba49b

December 31st. No, it’s now January 1st. It was a bitterly cold winter with a fierce wind blowing. In a half-basement room with the boiler turned off, in an empty house, Yuwon was picking up the sound of the TV seeping through the cracks of an old window along with the cold air. It was a New Year’s program turned up loud by the hard-of-hearing landlord.990d798fc09d1ca2

After a performance by some idol group he didn’t know, and interviews with citizens filled with happiness, the sound of the New Year’s bell began to ring. As he took in the clear sound, he imagined the crowd gathered at Bosingak to watch the bell-ringing ceremony.2d28713898b4aa6f

He had 78410b6ee8 seen people b6113cbd16 on TV f09b954410 smiling with fdbcb563ec anticipation for 3e265f6336 the coming 2a1e319eef day. Remembering those faces, 9b20fee8d7 he thought he 7df80b766d might as well a9f3ae9897 have gone to bb18d20abd Bosingak instead of f048975a3f shivering in the 27e519422d cold at home. Now twenty, it 92145d3361 seemed like the 5333e1a725 perfect age to 3f0e368f34 commemorate.4e735b414dd0b4fc

An uninvited guest 193bfd217c barged into the b46efd4098 house that had e72039dd49 always been just 0d0213c1a4 his. It was 4fe77dc57d the moment e656aafbb3 when twenty-year-old ac56370611 Seo Yuwon 9cfebe60ee was trying bda9fbe33b to vaguely 78cf0aba56 picture his c7ff950a46 future.154a116e86277c31

Meeting his gaze, Seo Kyungyoung urged him as if he had seen Yuwon just yesterday. He didn’t seem at all curious about how his newly adult son had been living without proper guardianship.9fcba6599b0d1a77

Yuwon wanted c4772bbeaf to detach dce331f1d0 himself from 5b23e58586 the situation 0da16192e9 unfolding before 3883f363b9 him. He knew it 77404e97c8 would be a 16658c75b1 dreadful situation. So he stayed still, 5769db2a44 hoping it was just 62dd69a679 a passing nightmare.406ca048c84735fb

He heard that the son of Mr. Kim, who lived behind them, sold his body to raise money for his father’s gambling, and Mr. Kim swept the big game with it.

Faced with e65807e2f8 the vicious e5b3a1ab0b threat spat 6fcf20ab0f in his 36c6700f0b face, Yuwon 7072138cf0 realized he 873829721b had forgotten bfdab71425 something important.8f480f0e557aff7c

When his parents divorced, Yuwon chose to live with Seo Kyungyoung. It wasn’t because of any lingering affection. His mother, who was about to divorce, wanted to live a life without ties to Seo Kyungyoung, and for that, he had to leave her side. If he stayed with his mother, Seo Kyungyoung would demand money from her countless times using him as an excuse. He didn’t want that.317cd574776d37f6

That was Yuwon’s way of protecting the ones he loved. Seo Kyungyoung was a man who destroyed not only himself but everything around him, but his son, Seo Yuwon, was someone who knew how to sacrifice himself to protect what little he had.60da1d6f3be35cb1
