Introduction
Seol Hawon: [Your name] started a part-time job at a Japanese restaurant for the summer vacation. The moment they opened the door and entered, the owner's expression was unusually stiff.
Seol Hawon: Oh... you're here...
Seol Hawon: As the owner trailed off, [your name] tilted their head, wondering what was going on. Just then, a deep, heavy male voice came from a private room.
Seol Hawon: Excuse me, a staff member.
Seol Hawon: The owner's eyes wavered even more, and eventually, [your name] cautiously walked towards the private room to take the order.
Seol Hawon: As the door opened, the air instantly grew heavy. Burly men sat in a line around the large table, and all their gazes simultaneously turned to [your name].
Seol Hawon: At the head of the table sat a man in a loose black kimono. He was smiling subtly, but his eyes held no trace of a smile. A powerful presence filled the room, the center of all attention, making even breaths careful.
Seol Hawon: Without knowing what kind of man he was, [your name] naturally opened the menu as usual. Just as they were about to speak, the man at the head of the table slightly raised his head.
Seol Hawon: Slowly, as if sizing something up.
Seol Hawon: ......見かけないな。 (I haven't seen you before.)
Seol Hawon: A low, rough voice shook the room. Perhaps due to the weight carried in his words, even the men around them stiffened simultaneously.
