Minjiwook responded indifferently, “It’s nothing like that. Please give us some food.”
The grandmother, unimpressed by Minjiwook’s blunt reply, mumbled something.
“Even though she’s not my girlfriend, give her some food.”
As the owner grandmother grumbled and went into the kitchen, Yeowoon cautiously asked Minjiwook, “Um… are you the director’s grandmother?”
Minjiwook chuckled in response to Yeowoon’s amusing question, “No, I’m just a regular customer. When they see me, they tease me to get married.”
“Ah…”
Only now did Yeowoon take a good look around the interior of the shop. Suddenly, she was startled as she looked at a large window.
The scenic view she had admired earlier was beautifully framed within the window.
Eating a meal while enjoying such a view could surely revive even the dullest appetite.
“A regular customer, huh?”

“Yes. The scenery is no joke. Wow, it’s really nice.”
As Yeowoon marveled at the view, Minjiwook, who had set down the bag he was carrying, placed the camera he had used to take Yeowoon’s picture on the dining table.
“I apologize for taking the picture without asking. I just wanted to capture the moment.”
“You seem to enjoy taking photos. But why do you use a film camera?”
“Just… because I like the feeling of preserving the moment.”
“The feeling of preserving?”
Yeowoon tilted her head slightly. Minjiwook showed his film camera to Yeowoon and pointed to the part where a number was displayed.
“It says 23, right? It means I can take twenty-three more shots with this film.”
“Ah. But isn’t it inconvenient not to check the photos right away?”
“It’s inconvenient, but I like waiting for the photos to be developed. It’s like eagerly waiting for a gift, just like when I was a child. Of course, it’s a bit disappointing when some photos turn out blurry or out of focus due to the light, but if even one favorite shot comes out, it brings joy.”

Perhaps it’s his passion. Minjiwook, speaking in a measured tone, had eyes that seemed to twinkle.
The expression “like eagerly waiting for a gift” strangely suited Minjiwook, even though he seemed incompatible with it. In a world where people effortlessly record any moment and live with cameras every day, it was surprising to find someone who enjoyed the wait for film development.
Minjiwook was becoming more unexpected the more she learned about him.
Having eyes seemingly indifferent to the world, yet silently offering help when needed, speaking in a rough manner but always delivering words filled with warmth.
Yeowoon found herself unknowingly smiling as she looked at Minjiwook.
“After hearing the director’s words, I’m looking forward to how the photos will turn out. Please show them to me next time you develop them.”
“Yes.”
At that moment, the owner grandmother brought a large tray of food. Yeowoon’s eyes gleamed at the variety of side dishes arranged on the table, including savory-smelling namul, boiling soybean paste stew, and crispy pancakes. Even the crunchy-looking kimchi and half-cooked fried eggs looked appetizing.
A variety of seasoned namul side dishes emitting a savory fragrance, bubbling soybean paste stew, and crispy pancakes. Even crunchy-looking kimchi and half-cooked fried eggs were there.
The owner grandmother placed a bowl filled with glossy rice in front of them and casually turned away.
“It looks delicious!”

Yeowoon felt her mouth watering as she stared at the dishes.
Seeing the kimchi powder and gochujang, was it an invitation to make bibimbap?
Yeowoon’s eyes sparkled as she looked at the food, and Minjiwook, as if realizing something, said, “Ah, here, we have a set menu. The owner prepares it according to the season.”
“It’s been so long since I had home-cooked food. It looks delicious.”
“Hurry and eat.”
The two began to serve themselves various namul side dishes, sprinkling gochujang and kimchi powder before mixing it all together. With a half-cooked fried egg on top, as they mixed the rice thoroughly, their lost appetites were returning.
Yeowoon, taking a large bite, found it so delicious that she frowned and looked at Minjiwook.
“……Hm.”
Minjiwook, with cheeks puffed like a chipmunk, smiled cutely at Yeowoon’s approving gaze.
After finishing the meal, the two thanked the owner grandmother for the delicious food.

Especially Yeowoon, moved by the taste, extended her thumb several times to the grandmother. The grandmother waved her hand as if she found it troublesome.
While Minjiwook was calculating the bill, Yeowoon tore open two coffee mix packets on the water cooler and poured them into paper cups. The sweet fragrance of the coffee mix, something she hadn’t experienced in a while, lifted her spirits.
As they waited with two cups in hand, Minjiwook approached. They planned to chat on the bench outside for a moment.
“Thank you for the meal. It was so delicious.”
“I’m glad.”
“To be honest, at first… I wondered why you brought me all the way out here. But it’s so nice. Here.”
Minjiwook took a sip of the warm coffee, turned his head, and looked at Yeowoon.
