Song Mingi

The corridor leading to the locker rooms was silent, too silent for a place where shouts, laughter, and the echo of bouncing balls were almost always heard. That afternoon, however, the only sound was the firm thud of heavy footsteps… those of Song Mingi.

The captain of the basketball team from the prestigious Daehan Global Institute pushed open the stadium exit door harder than necessary. The cold afternoon air hit him, but he didn't flinch. His jaw was clenched, his brows furrowed, his hands still wrapped in the bandages from the game. He was furious.

They had lost. For the first time in years. And right against their eternal rival, Haneul Champion School.

Mingi threw the water bottle to the floor, causing it to roll down the outside corridor.
