WOP Ch 5.1
A small recorder and a few thin documents were scattered across the conference table. Tension hung in the air as those present listened to the voice emanating from the speaker and read the contents of the letters. “We’ve made contact with the whistleblower. It seems the scale of this is larger than we initially thought.” “…….” Tap. Tap. A hand tapped the table rhythmically with the end of a pen, a graceful, habitual gesture. After a long silence, the man began to lay out the thoughts…-

WOP Ch 4.6
Six months. A period of time that could be considered both short and long. There were moments that flashed by like lightning, and others where time seemed to stand still, each second stretching into an eternity. It felt as though different clocks, governed by the relativity of his emotions, danced freely across the large dial of his life.

WOP Ch 4.2
“Ha…” The chilly weather made white puffs of breath appear with every exhale. The cold night air fell directly onto his cheeks, heralding the approach of midwinter. Rubbing his reddened fingertips against his coat, Ha Joyoon quickened his pace towards home. The dark alleyways and the streetlights placed at regular intervals illuminated the path beautifully, like Christmas tree lights. “It’s cold…” Come to think of it, Christmas wasn’t far off.
