His muse.

There was no way he could forget.
The image he had painted on countless canvases.
The first inspiration that changed his world.
Yoon Sahyuk approached that person slowly, unable to hear the surrounding sounds or the voices calling him.
And he spoke in a voice that sounded as if he had been waiting for a long time.
