“What is this?” Ahn Hana murmurs, “Why?”The video is only twelve seconds long. There is only a glimpse of Jung Kwang Soo. She taps on the number and listens to the ringing.
Sitting outside the surgery room, Eun Min Ah holds her head anxiously. Her shoulders quiver restlessly. The sight of Jung Kwang Soo in his blood has shaken her. How could that happen?After calling the ambulance, she didn’t know what to do. Jung Kw
