After the Monza Grand Prix, the drivers had a few days off before the next race, so Seri, Jeong Hyeok and other team members had taken the opportunity to make a short trip to their home country for their own personal reasons.
Seri had received a congratulatory call from her dad, who had asked her to travel to Seoul to have a celebratory dinner for her first podium finish. Though she wasn't quite sure how her mom would take that.
On his part, Jeong Hyeok had other plans besides visiting his parents.
After the conversation he'd had with Marco Ricci, he'd done a little more digging and managed to come up with an address linked to Jung Man Bok, though he wasn't sure if the man still lived there.
Seri and Jeong Hyeok had agreed to visit the address on their second night in Seoul, so there they were, in front of the door of apartment 503 of a building located in a neighborhood of the Seodaemun District.
Seri grabbed her best friend's hand and squeezed it gently as she felt his hesitation.
I'm here with you.
Jeong Hyeok returned the squeeze and, taking a deep breath, proceeded to knock the door.

That was a quiet night in Hongje Dong. After a long video call with her husband, Hyun Myeong Sun had bathed her son and tucked him in bed.
Once the little Jung Woo Pil had fallen asleep, she went to the living room to pick up the mess that the little boy had made with his friends that afternoon, when suddenly she heard a little knock on the door of their apartment.
She wasn't expecting visitors, so that seemed strange to her, but she proceeded to open the door and found herself in front of a very well-dressed young couple. She had never seen them around, but their faces were vaguely familiar.
"Hello," the young woman with short brown hair greeted her with a friendly smile.
"Hi," she answered back, exchanging glances from one to the other.
"We're very sorry for the intrusion, ma'am, but we're looking for a man named Jung Man Bok and we were told he could be found at this address."
At the mention of her husband, Myeong Sun felt a nervousness run through her body. Since he worked abroad, very few people knew him, and, generally, it was she and her son who traveled to where he was. However, those who knew him never seemed to have good intentions with them.
"He's not here, I'm sorry," she said suspiciously and made an attempt to close the door.
At this, Jeong Hyeok hurried to prevent it by gently placing his hand on the door, he didn't want to scare that woman away, but he needed to find Jung Man Bok, so he cleared his throat before speaking for the first time.
