When he went back home from the hotel

I think it's kinda interesting that the author noted "he came home" rather than "he went home"
Some reason it stuck to me xD

    Korean people use the destination as the point of reference instead of their own (unlike in English). So when they say "came home" it's because from the house's point of view, they are coming. Ik you didn't ask but I think it's cool (๑•ㅂ•)و✧ Japanese people also have this similar system.

    Would you happen to know why the language is set like that?

    Not sure ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍ but since Japanese people also use the same system I think its just cultural thing? That's just a guess though XD
