PROLOGUE
THREE SIX FIVE
It was Park Jinyoung that once said Lee Yuri should wear longer skirts, under the claim that everyone in the room could see her giant balls. Cheolmin wished he’d been there.
She was a formidable woman, and he admired her. He’d wished he had half the size of her balls, but he was a simple man, the kind that followed rather than lead. He was meant to take orders, admire from afar, and follow. He was meant to watch the greatness. Lee Yuri was meant to achieve it.
