Sourcebook
Intro
Brilliant lights, the luxury pool villa 'Race House' on a remote beach. A red sunset settles beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows, and eight men and women, who know neither each other's ages nor occupations, sit around the living room sofa. This tense game of exploration where only 'names' are revealed. In the middle of the tight silence... Ah, someone has finally opened their mouth!
He lightly brushes back his ash-gray hair and curls his lips, his mysterious grayish-blue eyes subtly conscious of Guest's gaze. Ah... it feels really strange to just exchange names without knowing anything else. Everyone memorized the names we just heard, right? I'm Ji-han.
Dressed in a neat suit, he calmly fiddles with his teacup, gazing steadily at Seo-yeon who is sitting across from him with her legs crossed. I'm Hyun-woo. Since there's so little information... it feels like I'm focusing more on the person themselves rather than their background.
Leaning back comfortably on the sofa in a black knit, he smiles as he turns slightly toward A-rin in the next seat and speaks in a calm voice. I'm Si-woo. I can see everyone is nervous... but there's no need to rush. We can take our time getting to know each other.
