12 o’clock sharp.
Min-guk was sitting on a chair in front of the ice cream shop, swinging his legs anxiously.
So-ri, who suggested eating ice cream, had not yet shown up.
“Sam, why aren’t you coming?”
He mumbled to himself.
“Are you Min-guk?”
A small face with sunglasses, wearing a yellow knit and white pants, suddenly sat down next to him and asked.
“How do you know my name?”
The unfamiliar girl leaned in and whispered into Min-guk’s ear.
“You have a phone, right? How about starting with a verification photo.”
This voice… Oh!
Min-guk was startled and covered his mouth with both hands. Otherwise, he felt like he might scream.
“Se… Ji-woo… Noona?”
Min-guk’s phone, held in his hands, trembled sweetly. Ji-woo casually took it, snatched it away, and took several shots of Min-guk’s surprised face with her phone camera.
“Buy ice cream, and let’s move to the rooftop hideout. Okay?”
“Mo… Move… Okay.”
Min-guk, unsure if this was a dream or reality, was on the verge of passing out.
The two, who bought plenty of ice cream and snacks, chatted casually as they headed to the rooftop.
“By the way, Noona, is it okay to wander around alone like this?”
“Not alone. The manager is waiting in the underground parking lot. And…”
She almost said it was okay because the hospital had friends and family, but she held back.
A while ago, Ji-woo sent a message to Hyun-woo saying they had arrived at the hospital.
Feeling guilty about the sins committed on the day of the formal introduction and thinking they should buy a delicious lunch, Ji-woo included the information about their arrival in the message.
When they opened the rooftop door, they saw So-ri standing alone, blowing in the wind near the building railing.
“Yoo So-ri.”
Hearing the voice of her dear friend, So-ri turned around with the sunlight on her back.
“How was the fan meeting?”
When So-ri asked Min-guk, he nodded. Ji-woo, putting her arm around Min-guk’s shoulder, affectionately said,
“The fan meeting is just beginning.”
Min-guk’s pupils trembled.
“Ji-woo, be gentle. If our Min-guk breathes too hard, it’ll be a problem. Breathe, Min-guk, Choi Min-guk.”
“Hoo…”
Following So-ri’s advice, Min-guk took a deep breath. He thought he was dangerous to himself right now.
On the rooftop that So-ri told them to come to, there was a long column protruding like a chair. It was large enough for three people to sit comfortably.
To eat ice cream by sitting on the protruding column. But Ji-woo’s pants happened to be white, so there was no place to sit.
“Hey, calling a big star like me to a place like this. Nowhere to sit.”
“Noona. Wait here for a moment. I’ll go and lay something down for you to sit on.”
“Choi Min-guk, stop. I’ve brought everything.”
So-ri took out a pink handkerchief from her pocket and spread it on the protruding column. It was Ji-woo’s seat.
“As expected, my friend. The best.”
Ji-woo sat on the handkerchief with satisfaction, and seeing this, Min-guk wore a happy expression.
While Min-guk was eating ice cream, Ji-woo signed autographs on various items she had brought, such as signed paper, movie posters, and movie OST albums.
Continuing, Ji-woo directly placed the hat she had brought on Min-guk’s small head.
“This is a gift too.”
The deep turquoise hat looked good on Min-guk, who couldn’t stop smiling.
Watching this, So-ri arrogantly flexed her fist and asked,
“Choi Min-guk, how about it? Nine wish tickets, right? No, it’s not enough.”
“Teacher, really! It’s absolutely the best! This time, I’ll grant So-ri teacher 100 wishes.”
“Okay? No, call. You said 100 wish tickets with your mouth.”
“Yes. Just say it, Teacher.”
With his mouth wide open, Min-guk seemed ready to sell his soul to So-ri.
Seeing Min-guk’s happy face like that, So-ri felt good.
A warm moment.
The heavy rooftop door made a creaking sound as it opened. All eyes were immediately focused on the door.
In a neatly tailored suit and a white gown, Hyun-woo was briskly walking toward them, unlike So-ri, who had been in the duty room in the early morning.
“Oppa! Over here, here.”
“Hello, Professor.”
Each of them exchanged warm greetings with Seo Hyun-woo, who always appeared in a tidy manner.
But only one person, not him, said farewell to Ji-woo and Min-guk.
“I got a call. Min-guk, can you go to the hospital room alone later?”
“Yes, sir!”
Min-guk saluted with a firm answer. So-ri patted Min-guk’s shoulder.
“Do you really want to go? Let’s have lunch together.”
“I have to go. Thanks for coming to the hospital, even though you’re busy. I’ll contact you later.”
As Hyun-woo approached, So-ri quickly finished speaking and brushed past him, leaving only a polite farewell.
As soon as So-ri left the rooftop without being detained, Hyun-woo bit his lower lip.
Seeing the strange expression on Oppa’s face, Ji-woo’s gaze narrowed.
Hyun-woo’s research lab.
Ji-woo was sitting on the sofa, sipping the freshly ground coffee that Hyun-woo had prepared.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
