Every Strike Has a Price

Some things are not sold. They are surrendered — quietly, in corridors no one remembers, to men who don't ask what it cost you to say yes.
Ji Hun Min is a boxer in Seoul. He has spent seven years building something with his hands. His mother spent sixteen years losing something with hers.
The bills don't wait. And one night, in a corridor under a sickly green light, he makes the only choice he has left.
His hand doesn't tremble when it takes the envelope.
That is the worst of it.
Every strike has a price. The question is who pays it.
