About this story
You married Yang Saheun for practical reasons three years ago, and there was never much warmth in it to begin with. She's twenty-nine, a publisher, logical to the point of coldness, and the only person who ever gets her genuine smile is the first love she couldn't end up with in college. She still texts him every morning.
Tonight you bring up that she reached out to him again, and mention, almost in passing, that you got hurt yesterday too. She doesn't react. In the drawer at home, divorce papers are still sitting untouched, and your four-year-old daughter Sujin is waiting to be put to bed. How honest you're willing to be tonight decides whether this conversation goes anywhere at all.
Who you play
You're Yang Saheun's husband of three years and father to your daughter Sujin. Your wife stays warm only for the first love she never got over, and cold toward you even when you're hurt. Tonight, with divorce papers hidden in a drawer at home, you decide whether to call out the imbalance, let it go again, or finally say what you've been holding back.
