IF YOU'RE HANDSOME LIFE IS EASIER

048

After the uproar caused by method acting calmed down,

the people sent applause toward me and Su-Jin for completing the final shoot successfully.

“Great job, seriously!”

“You two have amazing synergy! You should definitely do a romance together later!”

With the enthusiastic cheers fading away,

thanks to my underage privilege, we were able to leave the filming site without any after-party.

There was a passionate talk with the director in between,

but that too ended quickly due to my minor status and work hours.

Leaving the busy scene behind,

Su-Jin and I moved toward where the van was waiting.

“Are you all cried out now?”

The playful teasing was still ongoing.

“….”

But isn’t it usually the case that something should be said in moments like this?

Since Su-Jin answered earlier, she had been just nodding her head without much reaction.

After distancing ourselves from the crowd,

I felt like we were the only ones left under the streetlight.

“Hey, Kim Donghu.”

Su-Jin slowly opened her mouth.

“Keep your promise.”

Our steps had stopped without us realizing,

and without a thought of hiding her cheeks, which had turned red like a persimmon,

Su-Jin was looking straight at me.

“What promise?”

To my question, she looked at me as if I was ridiculous.

Su-Jin stretched one arm out.

Her fingertips, slightly bent by the chilly wind,

were nonetheless pointing directly at me.

“You said you’d catch me.”

Hand.

At that bold statement, I found myself glancing around, then quickly fixed my gaze on Su-Jin.

Was there anything sillier than me being anxious while you were speaking without a care for the prying eyes around us?

So, I also stretched out my hand,

and at the moment our fingertips touched.

“You heard it earlier, right? Our synergy is amazing; they want us to do a romance too.”

Su-Jin giggled and tucked her outstretched hand into her pocket.

“How pretty do you think I’ll be by then?”

Su-Jin’s bold question was not really a question at all.

The answer was already set, and there was no need to voice it,

all I could do was nod in agreement.

“Super pretty?”

“Of course! I’ll be unrealistically pretty! You’ll be shocked.”

“You’re pretty now.”

“Of course! Hehe… Ah, not that! You know what I mean!”

With Su-Jin’s words, I shrugged my shoulders.
