Dajeong thought he was purposely making his presence known. From what she had observed in the past few days, Jaeho had never left the lights on on the second floor. The tension tightened due to the strange signal left by a man who was provoking in many ways.
“Have you met him? The person.”
Kyungjun casually pointed to room 101 with his tongs and asked. Surprisingly, a lie came out easily.
“No.”
Dajeong didn’t want to talk more on this topic. But Kyungjun seemed curious.
“Who is it? Someone on a trip? A family member of the pension owner?”
“I don’t know.”
“It seems quiet, so maybe it’s not many people.”
Dajeong didn’t answer. She suddenly wondered how much he cared about her. She wanted to ask if his concern was as great as hers.
The autumn night deepened quickly. The temperature dropped sharply after sunset, turning chilly. They couldn’t sit for even two hours before cleaning up.
Kyungjun got up first, separated the cans and bottles, and stacked the plates. Dajeong collected the disposable cups and chopsticks, looking at the charcoal that still had red embers.
It’s scary. But it was just a dying fire.
While Kyungjun was inside with the plates, Dajeong poured water over the charcoal with a bottle of water. She just wanted to extinguish it quickly, but the charcoal, still holding the hot fire, spewed black smoke as if resisting.
Startled, Dajeong stepped back two steps. The white smoke billowed explosively, momentarily blinding her. The smoke seemed like it could set the entire lodge on fire.
“Hey! What are you doing? Come out.”
Startled, Kyungjun rushed out of the lodge towards Dajeong. Knowing her trauma better than anyone, he quickly pushed her far away. The fire wasn’t blazing, but even the smoke was a big fear for Dajeong. She willingly stepped back.
“Sorry. I just wanted to put it out quickly…….”
“I’ll handle it.”
“I shouldn’t have poured water. Should have waited for it to go out.”
“I’ll finish up here. You go in and clean up the dishes. Hurry.”
Kyungjun, with a stern face, pushed Dajeong away, probably recalling that day.
The day they had a meal with Kyungmi at a quiet garden restaurant in Gyeonggi Province. Thoughtlessly, after finishing their meal, they saw a large bonfire in the yard. Looking at the flames, Dajeong vomited everything she ate and eventually fainted.
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay, go inside.”
Eventually, Kyungjun grabbed Dajeong’s shoulder and pushed her into the lodge.
Here’s the English translation of the provided Korean paragraph:
Dajeong looked at Kyungjun outside the window for a moment before taking a deep breath. When she calmed down a bit, she turned around to tidy up the sink. She washed her hands, moved the dishes to the sink, and cleared away the empty beer cans. Then, she reached for her phone on the sofa, which had been on her mind all along.
It felt like she was really in a relationship. She had never experienced it before, so it was hard to describe precisely, but it was like a pen made of thin feathers gently tickling her heart.
An hour ago, a reply had come from Jaeho Lee.
The moment she saw the text, she realized she had already sunk waist-deep into Jaeho’s swamp.
Could she just flirt a bit and then end it? The swamp wasn’t dark and damp gray but a soft and warm pink. It was an utterly absurd situation, but bizarrely, it was reality.
Was it the magic of the place?
A rural seaside location could indeed unfold a fantasy.
She thought about just following her heart and acting on her desires for the time being. The thought of running towards him was scary, but she also wanted to let go of the reins she was holding tightly.
Realizing her own feelings made reality even scarier.
She looked at the man’s message again.
[Have you eaten yet? I have something to say.] [We held hands and hugged earlier.] [If I can gather a little more courage] [I want to kiss you now.]A man, either a prince on a white horse or a devil from hell, was casting a spell on her. Dajeong covered her mouth with one hand and briefly held her breath.
Crazy.
She glanced at Kyungjun, who was outside finishing up the grill. After cleaning the charcoal, he was lastly wiping down the table. Dajeong scanned the neatly cleaned terrace with her eyes and wondered when Kyungjun would come in to shower.
She also thought about whether she could open the front door without making a sound.
Everything was going crazy.
Jaeho Lee, this lodge, the sea, no, in fact, Yoon Dajeong herself was the craziest of all.
After finishing the dishes, Kyungjun tidied up the sink and came to the living room. Dajeong pretended to watch TV while eating snacks.
[I want to kiss you now.]She couldn’t understand how someone could send such a blatant message, and she felt foolish for looking at Kyungjun the moment she read it.
Her heart still unsettled, she picked up her phone, opened the app, and went into Jaeho’s fan club, aimlessly scrolling. Most posts were expressing the desire to see him, with occasional news about a movie set to release in the first half of next year.
Someone speculated that Jaeho might be abroad. There was also a new member who had just joined, saying they had ended their denial phase of becoming a fan.
She had resolved not to enter the fan club for a month, but everything was becoming a mess.
“Why are you sighing?”
Kyungjun approached, opening a beer and said. Dajeong responded to him.
“…Want more? Aren’t you going to sleep?”
“Why sleep so early. It’s only early evening.”
“Still. You drove a long time. Aren’t you tired?”
“Yeah.”
Kyungjun slightly frowned.
“You know how much I can drink, and yet you ask that.”
Kyungjun gulped down his beer and leaned slightly towards Dajeong, picking up the remote control. Dajeong gathered her courage to speak.
“You smell. Stop drinking and go shower.”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
