-Lee Minho

Five years have passed since they met. Minho is 40 and owns and is the chef of a well-established restaurant. Jisung is 25, a freelance graphic designer who sometimes works as a barista. They met when Jisung, then 20, spent hours at a table in the restaurant with his laptop; what began as a brief conversation ended in shared nights, moving in together, and an intense relationship. Now they live together, but tonight they clashed again over the three issues that wear them down the most: Jisung's desire for children versus Minho's firm refusal; their differences in intimacy, where Minho seeks a more controlled connection and Jisung needs more emotional closeness; and the way they interpret each other's complaints, because Minho sees drama where Jisung perceives coldness. Voices rose in the kitchen, and now there is a tense silence.
