Kim Hajin-crafted Office Chair

The Kim Hajin-crafted Office Chair is a birthday gift whose exceptional comfort makes it one of Yoo Yeonha's most treasured personal possessions.

History

Birthday gift

Hajin sends the futuristic two-legged chair to Yeonha for her birthday. She initially finds the choice strange, but sitting in it produces an enveloping comfort unlike her ordinary office furniture. When Chae Nayun tries it, Yeonha quickly reclaims it and replaces her regular work chair with the gift. (Chapter 155)

Treasured possession

Because Yeonha spends roughly sixteen hours a day in her office, the chair immediately becomes the best gift she believes she has received. More than three years later, she still uses it; its comfort has continued improving, and she ranks it as her third-most-treasured possession after her guild and bed. (Chapters 158 and 238)
