** Please play the song I attached.... It's always been one of the best movie theme from Serendipity**

Lights, camera, gifts, posh cars, expensive clothes... these are just some of what the actor Hyun Bin has been experiencing daily. His life is not private at all, he tried over the years, but media always get in the way. He is in his mid 30's, 37 to be exact, and at this age he is suppose to be cradling a baby, or probably have one more kid whom he can drop at school and also he could be going home to a lovely wife and enjoying home cooked meals, but what he normally have are the regular take outs, and if his work require strict diet, he rarely eats one square meal, and end up with steamed veggies and white meat. His last relationship only lasted for a year, schedule was the main issue they had.

" I need a break Hyung, it's been 17 years of these. I think I deserve it. I want to rest for a month and find myself. " This was him talking to his manager Kang Kung Taek , who happens to be a good friend as well.

" I totally understand, I will let you go as long as you come back before the premiere of your movie. You do not have any schedule until the end of next month, so you are free. Where are you going by the way?"

" Hmmm I haven't decided yet, I will let you know this week . Hey Thanks , I will keep in touch."

3 days after he spoke with his manager, he decided to go to Jeju, where his family own a beach house. It was recently renovated and they would normally go there during holiday seasons, like Chuseok, or Christmas and New Year .

He already told his family he will be there for the whole month and his parents were worried thinking he might be depressed or something.

"Son, there is a caretaker there, you remember him right ? Manbok? Make sure you have his number too ok ? It's still winter, so it might be a good idea to get chopped woods for the fireplace. You are a grown up, I am sure you will survive just like how you survived the marines. "

" Gomawo abeoji and eomma. I will ring you when I get there. I think I should get going I still have to pack and leave early tomorrow. I rented a car from the airport, so I won't be driving back as well."

" Bring some vitamins Bin, the air is cold, and you need to look after yourself."

" I will Eomma, and I will be in touch."

His flight was at 7 in the morning. By 5am his driver dropped him off. He also brought his laptop and running gear and his guitar. The flight took an hour. He knows that some people have recognized him, and he could only give them a smile . The moment he got his luggage he went straight to the car rental and got the Hyundai Santa Fe SUV. Same car company, over the years.

" It's good to see you Mr. Hyun, don't worry our new staff has signed the Non disclosure agreement, so you are fine, ring us if you need anything and enjoy the provincial life."

He then started driving, windows opened, and got himself a cold Iced Americano. He decided to get some fresh seafood and other groceries, beer and chips as well.

He had to go incognito in the Dongmun market, hoody and black cap and sunglasses. He got some crabs, prawns, squid and tuna, he also got himself some veggies for soup, tofu and condiments.

BY the time he reached the house, it was almost 12 noon. Manbok was already waiting at the beach house and has cleaned the whole place already.
