Chapter 22: Terms

By nine the next morning, Hanbit's stock had fallen nineteen percent.

Ye-won watched it on the television in her one room, with a cup of instant coffee going cold in her hand.

Ma Gyeong-su had been taken to the prosecutors' office at dawn.

Ye-won muted the television every time her own face came round again.

Someone else had made a clip of Ma's paper cup.

Her phone rang forty times before ten.

Students called.

Reporters called.

A man from a streaming service used the word brand.

She let all of it go to voicemail.

At eleven, Ji-seon texted her a link.
