Dear Jin-ho,

Guess what I just did?

No seriously—guess.

Okay, fine: I broke into Munsu Water Park.
(Well, not broke—the gate was just... sort of open. And I sort of walked in. With a purpose.)

And then? I rode the “Springboard to the Sun.”
Yes. The slide. The one reserved for generals and tractor-factory heroes.
At night. In my red suit. No lifeguards. No music. Just me and the water, hissing like a secret.

I swear, as I slid down, I could hear the system glitching.
Like it was trying to decide if I was a national treasure or a criminal.
(I hope it chose the fun option.)

I laughed so loud the stars turned to look.
Tomorrow, they’ll probably post a new warning sign:
“Unauthorized joy is strictly prohibited. Especially after dark.”

But tonight, I flew.

Miss you.

— Soo-mi
