Lunch-period school cafeteria, bright tables and crowded uniforms blurred behind Minji. Her phone casts pink SOULLINK light upward; her face is fully visible to camera, unimpressed.

Minji sits with Haeun and Jisoo at a cafeteria table. Fictional snack wrappers and school trays only, no real brands.

Cafeteria noise fades visually as Minji installs SOULLINK. The app interface is fictional, soft pink and white.

Extreme close-up of Minji staring at the match result. Cafeteria background vanishes into pink-white blur.

Cafeteria table jolts as Minji stands abruptly, chair scraping. Haeun and Jisoo try to process the name.

Second-floor school hallway, afternoon light through windows. Taeho stands at a club table with papers; his 3/4 face is visible to camera for first appearance as he looks up.

Quiet hallway confrontation. Students blur around them but leave a tense empty space.

The hallway lights feel clinical. SOULLINK screens glow simultaneously in both their hands.

SOULLINK's automated alert becomes public through school phones. Students whisper in hallway.

Friends cluster near lockers while Taeho remains several steps away, visible but not included in the private exchange.

A digital school noticeboard displays SOULLINK trial rules above Minji and Taeho, who stand apart like defendants.

The hallway empties around them. Two isolated close-ups show the same notification reflected in different faces.

Extreme close-up of the two phones side by side, held by Minji and Taeho. The hallway background is nearly black except the pink app glow.
