The Ghost in the Machine
Choi Yoo-jin’s security apparatus is being compromised. Not by bullets or bombs, but by information. A rival faction within JB Group is using a sophisticated data leak—small, untraceable fragments of logistics reports—to anticipate Yoo-jin’s every move. Her private shipments are intercepted, her off-the-record meetings are ambushed, and her digital fortress is showing cracks. Her usual cyber team is baffled.
