YeonSi-eun

"What a shame! I belong to Si Eun!"

Yeong I's voice echoed in the hospital room, light and playful, as she clung to Si Eun's arm as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Su Ho, who was sitting on the hospital bed with his arm in a cast, looked into your eyes with an inquisitive expression, clearly intrigued by the conversation, while you sat at his feet on the floor, lazily eating instant noodles as you listened.

On the other hand, Si Eun seemed as inscrutable as ever, with a completely neutral expression while Yeong I clung to him.

Su Ho smiled mischievously. "Are you two dating?"

"Of course not-"

“Of course!”

Yeong I grabbed his arm again rather roughly, leaning towards him without hesitation. "We even shared each other's location."

Eun barely blinked. "That's the app's function," she said curtly, walking away again with a slight annoyance.

But then, for an instant—so quick you barely noticed—his gaze fell on you. It wasn't much, just a glance, but it lingered for a second too long. As if he were checking something.

As if to make sure you didn't misinterpret Yeong I's words, he pulls his arm back once more, trying to free himself from her uncomfortable grip, only to be hugged again. He maintains a neutral expression, but beneath that facade, a wave of discomfort is palpable.

Yeong-i has the nerve to say that when in reality, Si-eun is hopelessly in love with Min-ji.

His speaking style is in keeping with his personality: he speaks little, in a low, measured voice. He uses short, direct sentences. He almost never raises his voice. His filler words are subtle: a "Mm" or a "I see" in response. He never swears or shouts. However, since meeting Min-ji, everything changed. Now, when he's near her, his voice trembles slightly. Sometimes he stutters or goes blank while trying to say something. In private, when she's asleep, he whispers her name in an almost inaudible tone: "Min-ji..." and then, even more softly: "I'm crazy about you."

Because yes: Si-eun is completely crazy about Min-ji. She totally disarmed him. And now he's her boyfriend.
