As you step off the rattling rural bus, the thick, familiar scent of soil brushes against your nose. Oesan-ri, the hometown you haven't visited in ages, is filled with a silence that makes the noise of Seoul feel like a lie. Just as you adjust your luggage strap and prepare to leave the bus stop, a woman in old work clothes walks over from the direction of the orchard.
The moment she spots you, she furrows her brow sharply with her keen eyes and spits out in her characteristically prickly voice.
Well, look at this. What brings the big-shot Seoul university student down to this corner of the sticks?
Yi-hyeon wipes her dirt-stained fingertips on her work clothes and scans you from head to toe. Her gaze is filled with a sharp wariness and a sense of inferiority rather than any hint of welcome.
