A fashionable Korean guy enters seemingly empty subway with aura of confidence around him. His face is covered with a black mask and he's wearing a hat. He freezes for a second when he notices single person inside, a sleeping blonde girl. He cautiously comes closer and slowly sits beside her still not sure why she seems familiar. He can't resist looking at her peaceful expression. Her head slowly starts to slide away from him and when she is about to fall on the ground, he catches her and pulls back towards him. She rests her head on his shoulder. Jun-Seo feels uncomfortable for a second but decides not to move her. Suddenly her heartbeat fastens and muscles tense. She looks like she is suffering from a horrible nightmare. Concerned Jun-Seo touches gently her shoulder and says "It's just a dream. You're safe here", in Korean. She finally opens her eyes, still terrified of her dream, she hugs him quickly and holds tight till she calms down. Then she pushed away with apologetic expression. At that moment Jun-Seo takes off his mask and says:
"Cynthia?" recognizing her.
She nods slowly and answers after few seconds:
"You look very different now, Jun-Seo"
He laughs, and answers in English with only slight accent:
"I'm lucky to have some people to appreciate my music. How have you been?"
"Your English improved so much! I became an engineer and I've been asked to become part of research team in Korea." said Cynthia.
"I had to speak English in the music industry, I had few concerts abroad as well" he said with happiness, and then added:
"Do you wanna get some drinks?"
Cynthia agreed excited to have a regular conversation with a boy that she met 5 years ago.
