The morning in Seoul started out just like any other for Woohyun. He got up at 6:15 to prepare for school. He showered, he packed his lunch, he double-checked his homework, and he left the house at exactly 6:45. On his daily route, Woohyun said hello to the neighborhood cat that sat on the fence every morning. It looked at him with expectancy, as he reached in to his pocket. He took out some cat treats, and pet the cat as it ate out of his hand. Nothing was out of the ordinary for Woohyun, but it's not like he expected it to be. He got to class before homeroom, and sat down in his usual spot, next to his friends.
"Hey, did you hear? We're getting a new exchange student," one of Woohyun's friends was saying, "They say she's from Japan."
