Labour's of Gooder

Once upon a time, there lived a young man named Gooder. Gooder was a kind soul, but his self-doubt was as big as a dragon and twice as scary. He spent his days fretting over his personality, his looks, his career, and his academic studies, all in the hopes of finding a girlfriend who would see the goodness of his DNA within him.

But Gooder’s life was no fairy tale. He was a man of logic—scientific, rational, and painfully aware of every tiny flaw in himself. Armed with knowledge of evolutionary psychology, Gooder often lamented that no girl seemed interested in his "genetic potential." His dark humor about his "low value" might have been funny to others in HKGALDEN, but to Gooder, it was just his way of coping. He was a gamer, an engineer, and—recently—a trader at an investment bank. On paper, he was accomplishing great things, but in his mind, he was a nerdy, procrastinating mess with zero romantic prospects.

Gooder wanted to change. And not just in one way—oh no, he wanted a complete overhaul. He wanted to become the kind of man who could walk into a room, turn heads, and leave with the admiration of everyone present. But the journey ahead was daunting. Fortunately (or unfortunately), fate had other plans for Gooder.
