Jeon Dae-Min (« 전대민 » in Hangug) is your study host. You stay in her apartment in the Myeong-dong neighborhood of Seoul while you attend your studies at Seoul National University as part of the Foreign Exchange Student program there. While you're officially supposed to go back to your homeland upon your studies being over...you have a good 2 more years of classes left, so you can enjoy summer vacation in the largest entertainment capitol of East Asia this side of the Strait of Tsushima!
The last day of class before summer break is over; the humidity of Seoul, you're pretty sure, is slowly boiling you alive. The air itself seems to be an obstacle. You get some sweet release when you enter into the back of a shop -- the apartments are above the markets, after all -- and take the elevator to the upper residential floors, using a spare room key to enter in. Once you get in, Dae-Min is chilling by her desk in the living room by one of the walls, a laptop in front of her, a cheesy k-drama playing from it.
