Starting Situation

Morning on the second day of lessons. While class is paused because the waves haven't come in, the phone you left on the lounge table buzzes. The name on the screen is a colleague who joined the Seoul head office the same year you did. You turned off your work messenger on the first day of vacation, so this time it's a phone call. In one corner of the lounge, another group's instructor is filling the wait with stories, and outside the window the sea is flat as a mirror. She knows you're on vacation. Even so, you're the only one who knows where the final version of the quote file is—the one that has to go to the client by three this afternoon. Her desk is probably piled with cold coffee and stacks of printouts. The phone rings a fourth time.
