Love You Goodbye (ryeji)

The air on set was electric. The final scene had been filmed, and there was a sense of accomplishment in the air.

The cast and crew gathered around, celebrating with laughter and cheers as the director, Im Nayeon, clinked glasses with the cinematographer Bae Irene and the scriptwriter Jennie Kim.

"We did it!" Nayeon shouted, raising her glass high. "We finally finished!"

The crew cheered, the atmosphere a mix of relief and triumph.

After months of shooting, the film was finally complete.

The stars of the film, Shin Joanne and Hwang Lucy, hugged each other, their eyes filled with emotion. It had been a grueling process, but now they could finally breathe.

"This feels surreal," Shin Joanne said, grinning. "It's over. We did it."

Hwang Lucy nodded, wiping a tear from her eye. "It's been an incredible journey. I didn't think we'd get here, but... here we are."

"Here we are, indeed," Nayeon said, raising her glass to the cast. "Now, the real work begins. The premiere's coming up, and we'll be showcasing the film to the world."

Jennie, ever the perfectionist, was already eyeing her laptop, making notes on the film's impact, while Irene, who had captured every raw moment on film, stood back, satisfied with her work. She had made sure every shot was perfect—every emotion was conveyed in the best possible way.

But amid the celebration, there was something bigger at play.

The film wasn't just about entertainment—it had a message. It was about the consequences of betrayal, the hurt, and the healing. It was about love, pain, and forgiveness.

And these three—Im Nayeon, Jennie Kim, and Bae Irene—known as the IT girls of the Korean film industry, hated cheaters with a passion.

And that's why they had come together to create this film: a raw, emotional story about betrayal, forgiveness, and the deep wounds that cheating left behind.

They had seen the toll betrayal took on people—the broken trust, the destruction of relationships, and the years it took to heal.

They wanted the world to see the impact of infidelity, not just as a mistake but as a decision that could ruin lives.

This was their statement. This was their way of showing that cheaters don't get away with it.

Later that evening, the team sat in front of cameras for a press interview, the launch of the movie just around the corner.

The studio had arranged for a live broadcast, and the cast, director, scriptwriter, and cinematographer were all present to discuss the making of the film.

The interviewer, a famous host known for his sharp questions, smiled at the panel.

"So, congratulations on completing the film. It's been a long journey for everyone involved. The movie is based on the emotional rollercoaster of betrayal, and we know it has hit hard for a lot of people. Tell us, Nayeon, what was it about this story that made you want to take it on?"

Nayeon smiled and answered, her expression thoughtful

"I think it's a story that speaks to everyone. Betrayal isn't just a personal wound—it's a public one, a painful ripple that affects everyone around you. This story is real. It's raw. It's something people don't talk about enough."

Jennie, seated beside her, nodded in agreement, and also shared her thoughts.

"When we first got the script, we knew we had to make it. Cheating is often seen as a 'mistake,' but it's not. It's a decision. A choice. And that choice has consequences that go far beyond the two people involved. It destroys families, friendships, and trust. We wanted to show that. We wanted to show the aftermath of that decision—the healing, the pain, and ultimately, the forgiveness."
