"Let's start off meanwhile we have this free time. As her father, your are what she has at the moment, start off by giving her some attention during her playtime, even if it's a small part out of your busy day, it will help show Eun Jung that she means something to you but here's the catch, if you are spending small amount of time with her during playtime like around twenty minutes or so, then I would recommend having more playtime increments of time. Like after a while, you can come play for another twenty minutes or so, do this through out the day so that she feels that you are making the effort for her or spend at least an hour or two with her but make them the best you can. Indulge in playing with her, get into her child like mindset. Would you like an example of what I mean?" The young instructor asked quietly as he awaited the father in front of him to respond. Jeongguk nodded in agreement, he needed to see what he needed to do. 

"Right now, she's playing with fake food toys, it's very popular among the children, if she doesn't have any, but her some or I can lend you some for the weekends or something as such. Look, this is how you can role play and unleash your childish personality, if she sees you enjoying herself, it will make all the difference. If you have fun, so does she, therefore, she has a great memory of you and wha you have done for her. Let me call her over," the instructor cleared his throat sofly before calling the young female with two cute space buns on her tiny head, "Eun Jung, can you come here sweetie," he called as she ran towards Taehyung with the toy food in her hand, "What are you making?" He looked at the young child who showed him a random slice of plastic bread and slice of tomato. 

"A sandwich," she commented showing her inch two ingredients. 

"That looks so tasty," Taehyung pretended to exaggerate his hunger by rubbing his belly, Eun Jung handed him her creation.

 "I made it for you," she extended her hand to give to her teacher. 

Taehyung smiled as he faked eating the sandwich, creating fake chomping sounds that make Eun Jung shriek in excitement, "That was so tasty, you can be a chef," he played on, Jeongguk took note of how his daughter seemed to open up just by having Taehyung play along with her in the game. 

"I'll make more food," she rushed off into the play kitchen, opening the wooden cabinet to find more fake food toys that were scattered around. 

"Did you notice how she got excited just by me pretending to eat the fake food, how she played along with me? You need to do the same. You can get the same reaction as me." 

Jeongguk only nodded, "Should I approach her by the toy kitchen and play around?" He asked his instructor for permission. 

"Of course, I'll just stand watch over here," he smiled as he looked at his child sleeping before making contact with the single dad, "I'll come over if I feel like you need my help. Keep in mind, you need to make the effort here."
