“‘Among the people I’ve brushed past, I wonder how many were Mongma…'”
Kang started having such thoughts not long ago.
Ever since she realized that major incidents, which should have put a halt to her activities, were becoming frequent occurrences in her everyday life.
The decisive trigger was probably the incident at the wine bar.
The accident that day reminded her of the reality she was trying desperately to ignore.
And on the way back, San had said this.
“‘They will rush in, in a different number and way than what you have experienced so far, to take you over.'”
It wasn’t just to scare her.
He would try to protect her for his own purpose, but he was probably trying to tell her that she needed to be prepared, being the person involved.
A life without nightmares was indeed a brave new world.
She was extremely happy, but she also wondered how long this newfound comfort would last.
While it felt like she was standing on thin glass that could shatter at any moment, she just wanted to enjoy this peace a little longer.

Even though she knew that all the situations around her were changing rapidly, and that what she had only seen in dreams was becoming reality, she had no choice but to ignore and avoid it.
Having something to protect meant having something to lose.
Being happy also meant being afraid of losing that happiness.
“Hoo….”
She exhaled slowly and long.
She knew it was time to confront the reality she could no longer ignore.
“It’s done.”
The director, who finished the makeup, smiled as he looked in the mirror.
“How is it? It’s a new color that just came in.”
“I like it.”
“Right? It suits you well.”
The calm beige and brown shades made her image soft and gentle.
The place where the thoughts had cleared.
There was a welldressed Seo Kang.
Looking at her reflection in the mirror, Kang smiled a little.

It would be a lie to say she wasn’t scared, but she had no intention of giving up the comfort she had worked hard to obtain.
Because the real happiness was about to start.

It had been a cloudy day filled with dark clouds all day.
The colorless sky began to drop raindrops as soon as the sun set.
As she tried to close the open window, the wind was blowing so hard that quite a lot of rainwater splashed in just a moment.
Seeing the chill on her cheeks, it occurred to her that the end of summer had also passed.
“It’s a perfect weather to have a hot soup with soju.”
She wasn’t a big fan of drinking, but she had no schedule for the first time in a while tomorrow.

With the weather even helping, it was naturally a night when she thought of alcohol.
Kang, seated on the sofa, hugged her knees and rested her chin on them, quietly taking in the scenery of the falling rain.
When sleep eluded her, her mind was as troubled as the sound of the downpour.
On days when there were thunder and lightning, her sensitivity peaked to the point where her body ached for two days straight.
From the turnedup volume of the radio speaker, Joe Hisaishi’s piano composition flowed out.
The familiar melody could become infinitely depressing or sweet, depending on her mood of the day.
Today, her ears were more delighted than usual.
It felt like a song that went well with the weather.
She scrolled through her mobile phone’s contact list and brought up the number of the mountain.
He too would have a private life, so it wasn’t a method she preferred to use unless urgent, to call him over without warning.

Though she thought they needed to have a chat soon, she had been unable to find the right timing, and perhaps today might be a good opportunity.
That’s right. They say to strike while the iron is hot.
There were still too many secrets between us that had not been unravelled, and many more stories about each other that needed to be learned.
The finger wandering over the screen pressed the call button.
The short ringtone sounded, and he answered the phone.
“Hello.”
Buried in the sound of the rain, the voice of the mountain flowed out a beat late.
Is he outside?
She opened her mouth, thinking that today, every sound flowing into her ears seemed sweet.
“Director Han.”
…..
“Where are you now?”
Perhaps because it was a title she rarely used outside of formal occasions, he did not respond immediately.
It seemed like he was doublechecking whether the call was indeed for him.

Imagining his reaction, Kang, who was slightly amused, continued speaking.
“I think I need to step out for a while.”
Now?
“Yeah. Can you come right away?”
Where are you going? Do you need to drive?
“No. It’s within walking distance.”
Then come down as soon as you’re ready. I’ll be on the first floor.
He didn’t ask any further, and said he would wait.
Given his remark about waiting on the first floor, it seemed he really was outside.
Perhaps he had gone out to fill his stomach before his nightmare.
Although she had heard enough reasons for why he had to do so, understanding them didn’t alleviate her worry.
Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
The female lead is five years older than the male lead, and the male lead is already an adult when he appears.
