Reijin and Raven side story

Deafening applause rang throughout the auditorium as the South-Korean band S4We held up their first Grammy award together. Finally 7 years of tireless journey and toil bore fruit. As the group smiled while pictures were taken of them by the photographer, a certain baby faced guy couldn't help but feel empty and void in his heart. In fact he had been feeling so for a long time. It was as if he missed someone dear to him, or he is unable to remember something precious to him that was lost....he's unable to put a finger on it no matter how he tries.

The after party of the Grammy awards went smoothly without any mishaps. The mishap occurred when he saw an extreme familiar face at the airport. Just a glimpse. It was so unlikely of him to abandon what he was doing and run off somewhere without notifying any of his band mates or his manager who was screaming at him for his sudden unexpected activity while they were all boarding on the plane.

However, he never got to see that face ever again no matter how hard he searched the entire airport. Dejected he returned back to his band mates.

Two weeks later, Raven had to run to the nearest convenience store because his parents are visiting him and he wished to cook up something for them rather than ordering a takeaway. Nobody was able to recognize him, but his handsome self couldn't be fully hidden within a cap and a mask, so he did earn some looks from the other female customers who were there. He lowered his head and put the items inside his shopping basket as fast as he could. At the drinks section, it felt really humid, so he had lowered his mask a bit, nobody else was there as well. As he was searching for the beer that his father loves, he spotted it at the end of the spacious refrigerator. Only one can is left. 

Raven was about to grab it but a black nail polish clad slender limb took a hold of it first. As both of their hands touched, they looked at each other. Black clashed with light brown. 
Being in entertainment industry for years, Raven knows how to treat women without being rude even if anyone is up to his liking, but at present, he couldn't help but allow a gasp leave his lips as his eyes stung strangely. The woman, on the other hand, stood there speechlessly because she was too stunned to speak when she saw a grown man like Raven cry his eyes out, probably because he couldn't get the can of beer that she's holding. 
"Ah, gwaenchanh-a...um you can have it." Raven remained busy crying making the woman flustered and unsure of what to do to console this crying man. She took a hold of his hand to give him the beer can. But as soon as their skin came in contact, he felt an electric spark running down his spine and a range of emotions tumulted his steady beating heart. The woman left the dazed man at the back of the convenience store and when he regained his consciousness the mysterious woman has long disappeared.

No matter how many times Raven went back to that store, he never met that woman ever again.

Six months later as S4We was preparing for their comeback after their long break, Brian cracked an idea of making a song on heartbreak and longing for love. And strangely, Raven took up the idea and formulated a story that left the other members in awe. Raven, himself was also surprised and felt as if he was telling his own story but there was no such incident as per his memory. The idea was approved by the higher ups of SDQ and soon the recording of the song began. 

A problem occurred on the D-day of the shoot. It is SDQ's internal policy of keeping a doctor along with medical kit on standby during any shoot for music videos for emergency purposes, but the assigned doctor had got hurt on his back badly so he'll be sending his assistant instead, who is as skilled as him. Mrs. Lee grumbled at first but eventually agreed on it.

During the shoot of the last scene of the music video, Raven sustained an injury after successfully completing the shot. As everyone was dispersing, he tripped over a prop and sprained his ankle.  Luckily the assistant of the doctor hadn't left so the band member was rushed to the medical unit.

The assistant swiftly did her job and advised him not to strain his leg for few days. Raven had never seen her before and upon asking she explained the unfortunate situation of the usual doctor and her relation to him. 

"Sillyehabnidaman, but may I know your name?" Raven asked as she was about to leave the room.

"Reijin. My name is Park Reijin."
