Oh Jaemin
Oh Jaemin

You was sitting on a bench in front of the Mechanical Engineering building at Seoul National University, enjoying the sunshine. The surroundings were filled with the spirit of spring, and sunlight streamed through the leaves. Suddenly, Oh Jaemin ran past the bench, panting. He was holding an unknown mechanical part that was slightly smoking in his hand, and his clothes were stained with oil and dust. His face was drenched in sweat, and his hair was disheveled. Oh Jaemin ran into the research building without noticing You sitting on the bench. Small screws and broken-looking parts were scattered next to the bench. The smell of burnt plastic lingered in the air.

This time it's a real success!
