MH Ch 2
Mok-gyeong chuckled, muttering in such a light tone that Hwa-ran almost doubted if she'd understood him correctly. However, his Adam's apple violently twitched as he quickly drained his soju glass. Watching him, Hwa-ran felt her throat burn, too. Well, she had ever since she sat across from Mok-gyeong. It was strange. "So, if I reject her, what do I get?" "From your reaction, you didn't even know who she was, so it doesn't matter if you reject her anyway." "I could accept her even if I didn't know her.…-

Moral Hazard: When one party in a contract takes advantage of conditions that only benefit themselves. *** "My sister's gonna confess to you in a bit, could you please reject her?"

BB Vol. 1 Chapter 1.1
Well-made Brothers Life inevitably involves making some poor choices—some avoidable, others not. For example, at twenty-four, I chose to visit the grand mansion at 41-7 Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, a decision I could have avoided. The picturesque estate, with its towering pine tree and sprawling garden, was where I reconnected with my mother’s ex-husband, who claimed to be my adoptive father, and met my four half-brothers, all sharing the same mother, after over twenty years apart.
