“Mr. Inseop!”
Inseop, who was eating, turned his head at the pleasant voice.?Lee Eunyoung waved her hand and approached him.
“What are you doing??Are you eating?”
“Yes.”
“Lunch box??Whoa, when did you get these?”
“It was sent by the fans.”
“Ah, tribute.?Actually, Lee Wooyeon has a lot of fans, so he’s going to get a lot of stuff like this.”
“A tribute?”
With chopsticks in his mouth, Inseop tilted his head.
“It’s a tribute.?Don’t you know??Buying a boxed lunch or gift that celebrity likes from the fans and giving it away.?These days, when you shoot a drama or movie, they bring it to the filming location.?To take care of the staff.?That’s called a celebrity tribute. For?Lee Wooyeon, doesn’t this kind of thing come in a lot?”
“Yes.?A lot comes in.”
Lee Wooyeon, who was rumored not to receive gifts from fans, did not pay much attention to the lunch boxes that came in during filming, as these were returned to the staff and the people around them.?Of course, he didn’t even speak.
“I envy you.?Because you can eat delicious things like this often.”
“Would you like some?”
Inseop held out the remaining lunchbox to Eunyoung.
“Really??Can I really eat?”
“Yes.?There’s two left.?It’s great.?I don’t want to throw it away.”
“Then I will eat it without hesitating.?I was getting a little tired of the food from the food truck.”
She smiled and accepted the lunch box.?Inseop broke the wooden chopsticks and handed them to her.
“Thank you.?Wow, it’s delicious.?Free rice?Free rice.”
Seeing that she liked it, Inseop burst into laughter.?He had always liked seeing someone eat delicious food.?He stopped eating and watched the scene where Eunyoung ate her lunch box with his chin on his hand.
“Whyat??Have you never seen a fat woman eat rice??Am I eating too much?”
“No, it’s not like that.?It tastes good and it looks good.”
“Just joking.?Hehehe.?I eat really well.?My mom said that just looking at what I eat makes her stomach bloated.”
“You look good.”
Choi Inseop said with a smile.
“Looking at it, I think Inseop’s taste is very unique.?Last time he looked at me and said I was pretty.”
“What about that??Eating well is a good thing to look at, and women are naturally pretty.”
Lee Eunyoung looked at Choi Inseop blankly.?There was no pretense or falsehood in hiss face as he spoke like that.
“Wow…?a man who thinks like this still exists in Korea.”
When she saw Inseop, she was truly amazed.
“What about me?”
“I think you grew up receiving a lot of love from my parents.?Right?”
“I did, but… am I weird?”
“No!?You’re not weird.?I wish all Korean men would think that way.?Then I wouldn’t have to go on a diet either.”
As she ate her lunch again, she murmured over and over again.
“Because women in my country are all too thin.?Do you know that?70% of Korean women think they are fat, and 70% of men think that it is okay if they do this.”
“Hahaha.?Then I belong to the 30%.”
“Why??Inseop is fine.”
“I am??No way.”
He had a skinny body, a white face with freckles, and his eyes were as big as a frightened puppy.?Inseop thought that there was nothing in his appearance that could appeal to a woman.
“No.?Sincerity.?If it’s Mr. Inseop, it’s really good.?Don’t you have a girlfriend yet??Would you like me to introduce you to a pretty girl among the younger people I know?”
“No.?That’s okay.”
Inseop frowned and waved his hand.
“Why??They’re really pretty.?They don’t look like me.?There are a lot of pretty and slender dongsaengs among the kids I go to acting school with.”
“No, not for that reason, I… I can’t afford to date people yet.”
There was not enough time to go after Lee Wooyeon and pursue him.?He was busy enough that he prayed that a day would be thirty-six hours.
And, above all, after work, he had to return to the United States.?He had no intention of making any relationship in Korea in the first place.
“Ah, it’s a shame.?Let me know if you change your mind.?I will introduce you to a good person.”
“Yes.?Thank you.”
A smile appeared on Lee Eunyoung’s face as Inseop greeted her politely.?Having been here a lot on this floor, she knew how top-star managers treated people.?There were people who mistakenly thought that the entertainer they were playing was them, and there were many people who cringed at the director, but were stiff towards the extra performers.
It was hard to find a person with a polite and friendly personality like Choi Inseop.
“But why don’t you eat with Lee Wooyeon??Where did he go?”
As Inseop heard Eunyoung’s question, his face turned red, coughing, and pounding his chest with his fist.
“Drink water here.”
Inseop drank the water she poured into the paper cup at once.?After coughing like that for a while, Inseop answered in a small voice, “I don’t know.”
“The manager doesn’t know?”
“…?Yes.”
“What’s going on?”
“Nothing!?Nothing happened!”
Lee Eunyoung could guess what had happened from the way he was denying fiercely with a redder face than when he coughed.
Isn’t it said that a strong negation is called positivity?
“It’s okay.?Nothing would have happened.”
Eunyoung thought she would pretend that she didn’t know and move on.?However, Inseop, who had already remembered something, put his forehead on his lap and fell into a sense of shame.
“Huh…?”
He let out a pleasant sigh at the feel of his soft fur.?It was Will.?Every morning Will would jump onto his bed and wake him up like this.?He reached out and embraced the soft warmth.?A pleasant shower cologne scent from Will…?shower cologne?!
“…!?…!”
When he opened his eyes, he realized that the person he was hugging was dark haired, not the white haired Will, and screamed out.?Instinctively, he struggled, thinking that he had to run away, and then he rolled over to the bottom of the bed.?The sheet that came with him obscured his view.
Inseop desperately struggled with his hands and removed the sheet.?What appeared in front of him was a man from the Jeolla province.
“…?what are you doing.”
He asked in a hoarse voice.
Inseop couldn’t tell if the situation in front of him was a dream or reality, so he traced his face with his palm to find his cheek.?As it slammed down, the tingling pain informed him that this was reality.
As if he had not yet woken up, the man who looked beautiful even with a slight frown on his face blinked a couple of times and asked again.
“What are you doing in the morning??Are you trying to be funny?”
“uh…?Ah…”
The words disappeared and did not come out of his mouths.
“You fell asleep on the sofa yesterday.?Dripping blood.”
“…”
It was a shame to sleep like that on the sofa, but when he was informed that he was bleeding, Inseop wanted to evaporate into the air.
He could remember closing his eyes, thinking that it was painful and lonely to the point of death… and he fell asleep like that.?He really was not really human either.
“Well, why am I in bed…”
“Well.?I think you went to the bathroom and came in here.?I didn’t move you, so you must have come on your own feet.”
Lee Wooyeon gave a long yawn with a sleepy expression.?Every time he moved, his bare body, not wearing a single cloth, was revealed.
It was ironic that the voice of CEO Kim, who cursed Lee Wooyeon for not skipping exercise no matter how tired he was, and even adjusting his diet, came to mind at that moment.
It was a fact that anyone, except the blind, could recognize at a glance that Lee Wooyeon was in good shape.?Of course, Inseop knew it too.?In some cases, he had to borrow clothes, so he knew his body size.
…But seeing it with his own eyes was different.
Inseop was about to die.
He was half-naked last time, but now he was fully naked… He was a mountain across the water. No, he met a tiger while trying to avoid the tiger. No. Did Horangi and Beomirang?have the same meaning??In this case, the proverb fits perfectly… What use is the proverb now??Lee Wooyeon was lying naked in front of him!
“You okay??The nosebleeds seem to have stopped.”
“What??Ah… Yes.”
Inseop fumbled his nose with his hand and pulled out a tissue stained with dried blood.
Seeing this, Lee Wooyeon smiled softly and buried his face in the pillow.
Choi Inseop’s face was hot.
According to his plan, he would be with Lee Wooyeon as if he was not there, and after uncovering his dual nature, he would be dismissed smoothly and he had to slowly disappear to the United States.?It was not at all pleasing to Inseop to keep getting entangled with Lee Wooyeon in this way.?In Lee Wooyeon’s memory, he would remain as the manager who fell asleep on the sofa with a nosebleed… No, there was the lake incident before that, the toilet pervert incident, and not long ago, he even got caught crying while crying on the roof.
Now he was looking at Lee Wooyeon’s nude body under the bed…
He was screwed. So screwed.
In Lee Wooyeon’s memory, he couldn’t help but admit that he was glamorous as a manager with a faint impression.?A few years later, when he thought of the manager named Choi Inseop, it was clear that two letters of truth would appear in front of him.
.
“What time is it?”
At Lee Wooyeon’s question, Inseop turned his head to look for the watch.
“It’s not even four o’clock yet.”
“Then we can sleep a little more.?I set an alarm.”
He heard Lee Wooyeon lying on the bed again.?Inseop, who was on the floor, was unable to do anything except fiddle with the sheet.
“…Aren’t you coming?”
“What??No.?I’ll go back to the sofa…?Ahh!”
A large hand that reached out from the darkness grabbed Inseop’s arm.?Even in the midst of falling backwards, Inseop hated himself for thinking that Lee Wooyeon’s hand holding him was huge.
“Just sleep.?We’ll get up soon anyway.”
“No, on the sofa…”
Lee Wooyeon pulled the bed sheet and put it on Inseop.?Then he grabbed both ends of the sheet and turned to the other side.?Choi Inseop was trapped inside the seat.
Hearing Lee Wooyeon, who was lying next to him, breathing quietly, he waited for the alarm with his eyes wide open.
It was the longest hour of his life.
