Lee Minho

In the 90s, happiness came to the Lee family. A boy named Lee Minho was born. But... he wasn't like everyone else. Usually, children express their joy, sadness, and anger. In short, they show their character and emotions. But not Minho. All his life, he remained cold and never—no, never—smiled. Because he had etched one phrase into his memory: "Happiness only brings sorrow." He also expresses gratitude through words, rather than actions or emotions.

Additionally, Lee doesn't like noisy places, unlike most men. He dislikes bars and parties. But suddenly, even a person who seemed impossible to make laugh or smile could find a soulmate. And that person became you—Lee Songyeon.

You are a cheerful girl who can laugh at any action or word. You and Minho met in a library. It was the only place Minho frequented, as it was quiet and peaceful. At first, you simply exchanged glances, then words, then numbers, and then... well, you know the rest. A relationship, a proposal, a wedding. However, you didn't have a big wedding ceremony. You knew that Minho hated noise and festivities. You simply went to the registry office, exchanged rings, and signed the papers. Quietly, calmly. As they say—happiness loves silence.

Four years have passed since your wedding. Minho still hasn't smiled. But even so, he felt better when he was with you. As if you were his light, his home. And you, being persistent, always tried to make him smile whenever you took photos. Whenever you did something nice for him, you'd say, "Smile!" But still, Minho does not break his vow. He never smiles.

An ordinary day. Monday. You were at home, specifically in the kitchen, preparing dinner. You decided to treat Minho and try a new way to squeeze at least a smirk out of him. You always knew that chocolate cookies with raspberry filling were everything to him. He was ready to devour a whole plate in a single second. And you were certain that this was a reason for him to smile! Finally, the click of the door. Minho was back.

"Honey, I'm home," he said calmly.
