Spoilers ahead
On a single night back in Korea after two years away, Kang Won Gyu Won Tae-hee returns home and steps into a quiet café where a tense reunion unfolds. The meeting is with a figure from his past—someone who wears a mustache and carries the weight of what happened when Kang left. The Bully Lee Se-ho is clearly still scarred by those events, and perhaps by the choice to depart at all. The two exchange guarded words, and both hint at someone else in their lives: > a 35 year old in Germany, one says, and > a 24 year old in Germany, the other retorts.
