Let me introduce you to YN, an ordinary graphic designer with an average life.

YN's apartment is filled with warm light. Eclectic art pieces and thriving plants give it a cozy, artistic vibe. YN is working on a new design project on her laptop. Ella enters, carrying a bag of takeout.

Ella: (smiling) "Hey, I brought your favorite—kimchi jjigae."

YN: (looking up and grinning) "You always know how to brighten my day. How was your meeting?"

Ella: (sighing as she sits down) "Exhausting, but productive. Sometimes I wonder if these people even know what they're doing."

YN: (chuckling) "Well, at least you keep them in check. Thanks for the food. I needed a break."

Ella: "You've been working non-stop, YN. You need to relax a bit."

YN: "I know, I know. Just need to finish this campaign. It's going to be amazing."

Ella: "It always is. So, how are things with Jimin?"

YN: (blushing slightly) "It's going well. We're going to this little jazz club tonight. He's performing a new song."

Ella: "Sounds romantic. You deserve someone who appreciates you."

YN: "Thanks, Ella. That means a lot coming from you."

They share a smile and start eating, the atmosphere comfortable and filled with the warmth of their friendship.

The jazz club is intimate, with dim lighting and a small stage. Jimin is tuning his guitar on stage as YN walks in. Jimin spots YN and smiles warmly.

Jimin: "Hey, you made it!"

YN: (walking up to him) "Wouldn't miss it for the world. How are you feeling?"

Jimin: (nervously adjusting his guitar) "A little nervous, but having you here helps."

YN: "You're going to be great. I can't wait to hear the new song."

Jimin: (smiling) "It's about you, you know."

YN: (blushing) "Really? Now I'm nervous."

Jimin: "No need to be. Just enjoy the music."

Jimin starts playing, and the soft melodies fill the room. YN watches, captivated by the music and the moment.

The family is gathered around the dining table, filled with delicious homemade dishes. The atmosphere is lively and warm.

YN's Mom: "YN, did you hear about your brother's latest achievement?"

YN: (smiling at her younger brother) "No, tell me!"

YN's Brother: (grinning) "I won the regional science fair!"
