I was surprised to come across your photo in The Korea Daily. Startled, actually. It’s been so long since we’ve seen each other. You look youthful, approachable but serious, without a trace of that naivety you once wore. Your ad is nice too. No gimmicks or slogans—modest, matter-of-fact. Just your name and contact information. “Licensed in DC, Maryland, & Virginia.” With offices in Potomac, you must handle luxury properties. Your name was what threw me. Kyunghee Pak, Realtor. For a moment, I had the shivery sensation that I was remembering a stranger or someone dead.
