San's car exited a highway and at once the busy streets of Seoul were left behind, opening up into the outskirts of the biggest city in South Korea. Mingi wasn't used to the sparse, short buildings, but he also wondered why he never came to such a quiet place before.
It was Saturday morning. At the hospital, San had been waiting for Mingi's last patient to leave, and when she did, he barged into Mingi's office and dragged the poor doctor away. He didn't even take off his doctor's coat yet, but San assured him that "it makes you look more attractive".
Mingi looked out the window. Three lanes narrowed down to one lane, and only a few cars crawled pass them. Mingi had a hard time finding people - it was mostly houses, and occasionally some small convenience stores. Finally, they drove up a gentle slope, made a turn, and arrived at a rather modern-looking, four-story residential-type structure.
It was a tower compared to the other houses on the same street, but the trees and plants - albeit dying ones - surrounding it made it blend into the scenery. Mingi was never so fascinated about a building before.
San parked his car and turned off the engine. "This is it."
"Are you sure you can park here?"
San waved him off. "We won't be here for long. Plus, the owners know me. They'll just be glad to have a new customer." He unbuckled his seat-belt and jumped off, with Mingi following.
Once outside, Mingi noticed a smaller road leading to the back of the building, with a sign that says "Parking". He shook his head at his friend's lousy parking in the middle of the driveway that led to the entrance.
As they approached the front patio where a pair of double doors waited, Mingi saw some people emerging from the left side of the building, where the garage was. For a place so segregated from the city center, their business seemed to be doing exceptionally well.
San hurried up the steps and pushed the doors open. A rush of warm air from the heaters welcomed him, but Mingi lingered outside a while longer to read the stylish sign that caught his attention.

Something about the short message gave him a sense of anticipation, but he shook it off and followed San inside.
In the medium-sized antechamber, a corner reception desk stood directly across the entrance. No one was behind it, but San seemed to know what he was doing, and approached the wide doorway adjacent to the desk.
There was a small doorstep to separate the two rooms, but no door. Mingi acknowledged the neat shoe-shelves that filled up almost the whole wall to the side of the antechamber, and the notice that read "Please remove your shoes before entering the common area." A rough estimate told him there were at least thirty pairs of shoes.
He still had no idea where he was and what kind of mess San brought him into, but an inexplicable feeling of comfort emanated from the place, so Mingi didn't complain. Plus, he needed a boyfriend.
