“In fact, I had no intention of revealing the meaning behind the director’s name in such a public interview. So, you’ve properly done your research.”
A triumphant smile began to appear on the reporter’s face. She vigorously shook her head up and down, and, facing Jun, playfully winked once. Witnessing this, Jun, as a matter of courtesy, barely nodded his head, just enough to be noticeable.
Of course, he quickly diverted his gaze forward.
“Obviously, I’ve never spoken openly about this anywhere else.”
What memory from the past is he wandering through? Jun’s eyes, which had settled around the floor, became cloudy. However, soon, as if he had regained his composure, his once-blurred eyes began to reveal a slightly deeper color.
“So, it seems like I’ll be talking about it for the first time in this place.”
The first time. So, it’s an exclusive. The reporter, with her wide-open mouth, gestured with her hands as large as her mouth, alternating between looking at Jun and the camera. Perhaps it was due to the cheers of the unseen crew off-screen. Jun, who was about to continue the story, was overwhelmed by the atmosphere for a moment, hesitated, and displayed an awkward smile.
What kind of people are the people at the broadcasting station? They must have thrown a net around Jun to catch any talk that could become a topic one way or another.
Even after Jun discovered one of those nets, he smiled and gracefully stepped on the net. In this situation, why is the calm guy acting differently today? Nevertheless, Jun is a professional, so there must be some thought and intention behind what he said, but he couldn’t help feeling his mouth dry out.
From the TV, there was a sense of distance that seemed impossible to reach.
The reporter, who was probably already letting off fireworks in her mind, urged Jun’s next words with a glance. Jun’s mouth, which probably saw through the reporter’s circumstances, lifted slightly. Soon, the words coming out of his mouth started to form a calm rhythm.
“By any chance, you might remember. In my movie ‘The Train,’ after the male protagonist sends off the female protagonist, he becomes a railroad worker at the makeshift train station in the small seaside village they had met.”
It was the moment when I heard a story directly from Jun about a movie he had made for the first time. It felt like my chest was going to waver with the vibrations gradually intensifying.
“Among them, there’s a scene that I deliberately inserted. One day, before a friend who had a business trip to the province where the male lead worked went up to Tokyo, he visits him. It wouldn’t have been pleasant for a guy who used to attend a prestigious medical school to become a lowly railroad worker, guarding a shabby station. So, the friend ends up making some sarcastic remarks, and at that moment, the male lead says something like this.”
Not only the staff gathered on the set where the interview was being conducted for the TV, but also everyone inside the broadcasting station, including myself watching, exhaled a carefully controlled breath, concentrating on Jun’s words.
Waving his hand in the air, a tense anticipation as if grabbing onto something taut.
“To be honest, it feels a bit awkward to talk about it in such a public interview.”
Jun, who had been holding his breath for a moment in silence, parted his lips.
“Whether waiting for that child is the biggest obligation or purpose of my life, it has become something like that. Is there something else I can do? Do I really think there is such a thing? I mean…”
A deliberately suppressed sigh escaped from Jun’s lips. Before the aftermath of that sigh could fade away, Jun blinked his eyes slowly, suppressing the emotions that had surged in that moment, and said,
“In fact, I expressed my feelings by borrowing the words of the male lead. Waiting for you is the duty and purpose of my life… ‘Matsu’ means ‘to wait’ in Japanese.”
At that moment, the train that filled Jun’s movie poster, placed between winter and spring, rose vividly. From Jun’s first movie to the director’s name he revealed when presenting the movie to the world. Everything was speaking.
From the moment I left Jun, he never stopped this long wait.
Something that had been steadying my heart abruptly snapped. The image of Jun on the TV began to blur. Jun’s face briefly appeared when tears filled his eyes, only to quickly become hazy again.
I couldn’t see what expression Jun had as he spoke, but through my ears, I heard the reporter and her words flowing.
“Oh, then, as a reporter who has interviewed numerous celebrities for many years, this is just a curiosity. Now that you’ve mentioned the meaning of Matsuzaka as your director’s name, does it have any connection to your recent reunion with your first love? The wait is over now. I have met you. Now let’s ignite our love. Something like that?”
Laughter from the staff echoed for a long time.
“As I mentioned, ‘Matsu’ means ‘to wait.’ I no longer need to wait, so I’ll spend a day…”
I hurriedly took a breath. My chest felt tight.
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.
