The following morning, Min-ho woke up to the sun streaming through his apartment window. His younger brother, Jin, was already bustling around, getting ready for school. Min-ho couldn't help but smile at Jin's enthusiasm. Despite the challenges they faced, they were a close-knit pair, supporting each other through thick and thin.
After seeing Jin off, Min-ho headed to the university. He had a full day of classes ahead and was looking forward to training at the taekwondo club in the evening. Little did he know, his day would take an unexpected turn.
Meanwhile, Tae-jin was already at the university, sitting in his lecture hall with a mixture of boredom and anticipation. His mind kept drifting back to the previous night and his encounter with Min-ho. Despite the dangerous circumstance, he couldn't deny the excitement that Min-ho stirred within her.
As fate would have it, the two of them were enrolled in the same business ethics class. When Min-ho walked into the lecture hall, Tae-jin's eyes widened in surprise. He watached as Min-ho took a a seat a few rows ahead, unaware of his presence.
During a group discussion, the professor called on Min-ho to share his thoughts. Min-ho's articulate and thoughtful response impressed both the class and the professor. Tae-jin couldn't help but admire Min-ho's intelligence and confidence.
After class, Tae-jin approached Min-ho, who was busy packing his books. "Min-ho," he called out.
Min-ho turned, his eyes widening in surprise. "Tae-jin? What are you doing here?"
Take-jin chuckled. "I could ask you the same thing. Seems we attend the same university."
Min-ho smiled, a mix of amusement and curiosity in his eyes. "Small world. Are you a business major too?"
Tae-jin nodded. "Yeah, seems like we're in the same class. Mind if I walk with you?"
Min-ho shrugged, his smile widening. "Sure, why not."
As they walked through the campus, they chatted about their classes, their dreams, and their shared experiences. Tae-jin found himself drawn to Min-ho's passion and dedication, while Min-ho was intrigued by the complexity of Tae-jin's life.
Their conversation was interrupted by the sound of Tae-jin's phone ringing. He glanced at the screen, his expression darkening. "I need to take this," he said, stepping aside to answer the call.
Min-ho watched as Tae-jin spoke in hushed tones, his demeanor shifting to one of authority and seriousness. It was a stark reminder of the dangerous world Tae-jin was a part of.
When Tae-jin returned, he looked troubled. "I'm sorry, Min-ho. I need to go. Something's come up."
Min-ho nodded, concern etched on his face. "Be careful. Tae-jin."
Tae-jin managed a small smile. "I will. And thanks, Min-ho. For everything."
As Tae-jin hurried away, Min-ho couldn't shake this feeling that their lives were becoming increasingly intertwined. Despite the dangers and challenges, he found himself drawn to Tae-jin in ways he couldn't explain.
Unbeknownst to them, their connection would soon be tested by forces beyond their control, as secrets from their pasts and ambitions for their futures collided in unexpected ways.
