At the unexpected words from Hye Yoon’s mouth, his hand that was covered with the script stopped. Her expression was ambiguous again. It seemed like the ambiguity was indeed her real emotion.
“I saw him in the corridor a while ago. So I greeted him….”
“Yes. You did?”
“The expression he had when he saw me was… a bit weird.”
Hye Yoon tilted her head and pressed her throat as if it was difficult to explain precisely. Even upon recalling, it was difficult for her to understand. She wondered if she had failed to read Bong Gi’s emotions correctly, and if she had read it correctly, she couldn’t accept it.
“Manager, hello.”
“……”
“…Manager?”
“Ah, yes. …Go in first.”
It wasn’t that Bong Gi hadn’t heard her greeting and failed to respond. His gaze fixed on me like a burning heat as soon as the greeting was over. He then stared at her face, then scanned her from head to toe, and finally fixated with his eyes.
She read Bong Gi’s gaze with her whole body for about ten long seconds, and the conclusion was indeed…
It was definitely ‘How dare you?’.
Since Bong Gi’s gaze was still dancing around in her head, Hye Yoon’s head tilted here and there. Upon seeing this, Ji Ho’s pupils began to sketch a scene they had never seen before in the air. He then quickly deduced the situation she had not yet explained.
“Perhaps… did he look at you ambiguously?”
“Oh! Yes! Right! Ambiguous!”
Hye Yoon clapped her hands in relief, as if Ji Ho had given her a word she couldn’t recall. It was like the earnestness of a puppy finding a favorite snack. As she looked up with that desperate expression, Ji Ho faintly smiled, as if he had figured everything out.
“It seems he didn’t properly receive your greeting and just scanned you.”
“Wow!”
“And he didn’t smile either?”
“Amazing!”
Hye Yoon reacted strongly to Ji Ho, who was chuckling and had seen through everything. As she watched the adorable reaction, she started to look more intently, and there she was, hurriedly covering her forehead with her hand as always when surprised.
“Hmm, what’s that about?”
“I feel like you can see everything in my head. I need to cover it.”
“Chuckles. I wonder what kind of imagination you’ve been nourished on.”
No matter how serious the expression she put on, it only made her cuter. Why didn’t she know this? Ji Ho thought that even her imagination resembled her appearance. He also thought he could guess what kind of look Bong Gi had given Hye Yoon.
And why he might have looked like that.
“I think… the writer just looked at you because you’re cute. Think of it that way.”
“No, it seemed… rather… the opposite.”
“I know him well. So don’t worry.”
If Ji Ho cherished every moment of Hye Yoon, she could believe in everything about him. She wanted to believe. So she decided to believe in Ji Ho’s words this time.
As soon as one of the issues that had not been fully resolved was solved, she made a short moan and hit her waist with her fist.
“Did you get hurt?”
“No. My body might be surprised because I’ve exercised after a long time.”
“Oh, you exercised on your day off too.”
“Yes. My friend dragged me to it.”
Her small fist rhythmically hit her slim waist. The sound irritated Ji Ho’s nerves. His gaze turned towards the outside of the set.
“By friend, do you mean… the one who came with you today?”
“Uh, yes.”
Her tongue tip pressed hard against her cheek, trying to suppress her emotions, but it was not easy.
“…You seem very close.”
At Ji Ho’s words, Hye Yoon looked at Woo Jun standing far away. Her gaze filled with longlasting memories probably had the form of a soft curve. Ji Ho silently watched her gaze that seemed to gently embrace the other party without sticking straight in.
Silently, and disapprovingly.
A moment later, Ji Ho too looked at the same person as Hye Yoon, but his temperature was the exact opposite.
“Yes. We’ve been almost inseparable since we were young.”
“……”
“Seeing him grow up so manly when he was a kid like me… it’s really amazing.”
And Ji Ho’s eyes, which had turned pale at her answer, pierced Woo Jun. Looking terrifyingly stern, when he came to his senses, he too was staring intensely in this direction.
Ji Ho naturally relaxed his expression. And he gave a light nod to Woo Jun, who was looking at him with puzzlement. Woo Jun also awkwardly nodded after staring blankly.
“Wow, damn… why does he look like that.”
As Ji Ho’s gaze disappeared into the distance, Woo Jun turned his head and muttered an exclamation.
“We’re going to start filming now! Everyone, please get ready!”
It wasn’t only Hye Yoon who had enjoyed the twoday break. The staff’s voice announcing the start of the shooting was unusually energetic. Behind that voice, with bustling movements, the second week of shooting began.
In the first week, Hye Yoon moved as Ji Ho instructed, but now Ji Ho only pointed out the regrettable parts while watching her movements. Hye Yoon was doing well to that extent.
“How is it? Hye Yoon is doing well, right?”
“…Yeah, it’s fresh.”
Min Joo, who had been watching the two’s acting from outside the camera, whispered quietly. Woo Jun’s eyes, which had been filled with curiosity all morning, sparkled the most that day. He was proud of Hye Yoon exploring a new world he had never set foot in.
“An Ji Ho is really handsome, right?”
“Well, just… like a celebrity. Tall.”
“Men’s inferiority complex.”
Min Joo chuckled and lightly clicked her tongue. Woo Jun was embarrassed to be amazed by the face and body of a man. However, he was not troubled because he had merely evaded the subject, not lied.
In fact, what really bothered him was not that.
“But… is it just my feeling?”
“What is?”
No matter how quietly he spoke, Woo Jun’s tone was unusually cool. Min Joo, who knew this subtle difference well, finally looked at him.

Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.

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.
