In reality, Woo Sae-hyun shyly blushed and hid behind Woo Sae-rim when Yeon-woo approached.

On the other hand, Woo Sae-rim was excitedly spinning around Yeon-woo.

“I wanted to meet a handsome *oppa* [older brother/male friend], but Dad hid him and wouldn’t let me. You said we should live together, and handsome *oppa* said he didn’t want to, so is that why you wouldn’t meet us?”

Yeon-woo’s head snapped around.

He saw Woo Do-gyeom leaning against the wall on one side of the studio with his arms crossed.

The corner of his mouth was raised, as if he was enjoying watching the situation unfold.

‘Seriously. What did he say to the kid…’

He’s such a useless human being.

No.

Seeing him readily allow the children’s photoshoot, it seems like he’s being helpful…

“Yeon-woo! Long time no see. How have you been? Are you feeling better since then?”

The one who greeted him was photographer Park Dae-il, who would be in charge of today’s shoot.

He was the very person who first offered Yeon-woo the photo model job.

He was also the one who gave him the A-grade stat ‘Frame Composition,’ which he uses very effectively.

“Since then? …Ah.”

“Oh dear. Judging by your expression, you still haven’t forgotten. Well, it’s not easy to forget something like that. That’s why I worked like crazy too.”

Photographer Park felt a strong sense of kinship, as he had also lost a pet.

Unfortunately, the pet Yeon-woo had in his memory was,

[Wow. This guy has a good memory. He still remembers my first body.]

The spirit medium had possessed a pigeon.

‘To think he still believes I raised a pigeon…’

I don’t know if he’s kind or naive.

Moreover, that pigeon didn’t even die.

It just flew away after eating and living so well that it became too plump to fly.

“Oh? A dog!”

“Wow. A dog!”

As soon as Park Dae-il appeared, the twins’ attention turned elsewhere.

“A dog…? Is there a dog here?”

“There’s a dog here. A dog that looks like golden-brown curry bread!”

To the twins, who had spiritual sight, Park Dae-il’s guardian dog, Meong-i, would be very visible.

However, Park Dae-il, who couldn’t see Meong-i, seemed to have dismissed it as the children’s imaginary friend.

“Let’s start the photoshoot!”

The studio setup was complete, and Yeon Do-hee and the twins were all ready.

The theme of the shoot was none other than a family photo.

In short, it was a shoot based on the premise of ‘What if Yeo-won and Joo-young didn’t break up and formed a family…’

Since the motto was naturalness, Yeon-woo, Yeon Do-hee, and the twins were comfortable inside the studio.

“The children… are very bright and cute. Are they child models…?”

“They’re not models, but the investor’s children.”

“Oh dear. I almost made a big mistake. But even though they’re not child actors, their expressions are so natural and good. We’ll get some great results.”

Park Dae-il doesn’t know, but the children are having a great time playing with Meong-i.

“Yeon-woo, do you like pork or beef?”

“I like beef.”

“Wow. You like beef more than pork?”

“Yes. You can cook it roughly and eat it quickly.”

“Ah, so that’s why our company dinners are always beef… Hmm. Then would you like to go eat pork sometime? I know a place that’s good at pork rinds.”

“Excuse me? Pork rinds? What kind of pork rinds?”

“Pig skin. It’s full of collagen, so it’s really good for your skin.”

“Yes…?”

Yeon-woo and Yeon Do-hee were having a natural conversation.

“The atmosphere is so good! Really good. Keep it up, okay!”

Park Dae-il, who’s shouting that the atmosphere is good, probably has no idea what they’re talking about.

“Ah. I think something got in my eye.”

“Should I take a look?”

“Ugh. I haven’t been sleeping well lately…”

“Just a moment.”

Yeon-woo carefully pressed Yeon Do-hee’s eye area, which was constantly frowning, and blew on it.

Yeon Do-hee blinked, as if it had gotten a little better.

A teardrop that had formed on one side of her eye trickled down.

‘I can’t let her makeup run.’

As a colleague who suffers the same hardships, Yeon-woo wiped away the falling teardrop with his finger.

“Oh, it’s a little better. I should go put in some artificial tears. Ugh. I’m suddenly sorry.”

Yeon Do-hee and Yeon-woo thought that the shoot would be stopped due to the unexpected situation.

However.

“Huh? Why are you getting up, Do-hee?”

“I’m sorry. There was a brief NG [no good/mistake] because of the dust just now…”

“NG? It didn’t happen?”

“Yes?”

There seems to be some kind of miscommunication.

A brief, inexplicable silence flowed.

“Um. Anyway, that was very good just now. Please keep doing that.”

I don’t know what’s good about it, but it certainly seems to be the epitome of ‘naturalness.’

“I guess it’s good?”

“I guess so. Wow. They’re really free-spirited.”

Indeed, as Yeon Do-hee said.

In a typical photoshoot, there are parts that the photographer requests according to the concept.

Poses, atmosphere, things like that.

But Park Dae-il didn’t request anything for this shoot.

That was quite amazing.

‘Is it because he’s a capable photographer for no reason?’

Frame composition that makes you find the most optimal angle in any situation.

The already acquired additional stat was telling him that Park Dae-il was finding what he wanted in an amazing way.

‘Should I help him a little?’

The better Park Dae-il’s results, the more beneficial it is to this side as well.

The image of what Park Dae-il’s eyes want beyond the lens is drawn in his head.

The corners of Yeon-woo’s mouth slightly lifted at the vaguely drawn shape.

‘That’s what he wants, huh?’

“*Sunbae-nim* [senior colleague/older acquaintance].”

“Huh? Yeon-woo, what’s wrong?”

“Aren’t you hot?”

“Ah. The lights are a bit strong, aren’t they? Should we take a break?”

“I feel a little dizzy…”

“Oh. Really? Oh dear. Are you very dizzy?”

“Um… Can you touch my head once?”

Yeon-woo leaned towards Yeon Do-hee and tilted his head.

The well-conditioned hair, which was not deliberately styled, flowed down smoothly.

The straight neckline was revealed long, and the curve of the neck stood out.

Cha cha cha cha click!

The camera shutter sound was very loud from all directions, as if shooting in burst mode.

“I don’t think you have a fever…”

Yeon Do-hee tilted her head after touching Yeon-woo’s forehead.

“Is it because it’s too hot because of the lights? If you’re really dizzy, should we check your temperature?”

“Um. *Sunbae-nim*.”

“Yes.”

“I think I’m feeling better. Is it because you’re worried about me?”

“Yes? Ah, what is that~! Yeon-woo, you’re teasing me right now, aren’t you?”

Yeon Do-hee glared at him, having seen the slight smile on Yeon-woo’s lips, and then burst into laughter together.

“I didn’t think so because you were so sharp even though you were so young, but seeing you like this, you seem to be my age too.”

“I think it’s because you’re a good person, *Sunbae-nim*.”

“Wow. That was a bit dangerous.”

Yeon Do-hee laughed coolly once again, saying that he was trying to seduce even her, not just other people.

Yeon-woo also burst into a clear laugh at the laughter that deeply creased her eyes.

“My boyfriend would be completely sulky if he knew? No, he’s been falling for Yeon-woo these days too… Um… Then should I be angry?”

Yeon Do-hee, who was suddenly worried.

Then, suddenly, as if she had an idea, she carefully grabbed both of Yeon-woo’s cheeks.

“No, but. Are you really not sick anywhere? Our Yeon-woo wasn’t someone who would say such weak things?!”

“Actually, it’s a lie.”

Yeon-woo covered his face deeply with the palms that were covering his cheeks and curved his eyes.

Yeon Do-hee blinked, looking at Yeon-woo, who was smiling while deliberately lowering his head to match Yeon Do-hee’s height.

“What is it. What’s the reason for acting so cute like this, Kang Yeon-woo?”

“I wonder. For the photoshoot?”

It’s true that Yeon Do-hee is a good person, and it’s also true that it’s for the photoshoot.

Actually, it was a bit awkward because I had never been friendly with someone like this before…

‘This isn’t bad either.’

Yeon Do-hee, who was looking at Yeon-woo smiling bashfully, took her hand away.

Then.

Slap!

“Ah, I almost fell for it completely!”

Yeon Do-hee smiled and glared, hitting Yeon-woo’s back without hurting him.

“I was nervous that I was going to get caught between a top star and a scary company chairman.”

Yeon Do-hee wiggled her fingers, saying that she knew how creepy and serious that was.

“If someone asked me if I would take 10 billion won [~7.5 million USD] and be between those two, or choose not to receive 10 billion won, I would choose the latter without hesitation.”

Yeon Do-hee said that she had to save the person she had to save.

“But, Yeon-woo. It looks really good. Joo-young felt mature because of the pain, but now she looks exactly her age.”

“Is that so?”

“Both Joo-young and Yeon-woo. It looks really good. You look younger with your hair like this. Did you style it like this on purpose?”

A slender finger tickled Yeon-woo’s forehead.

It was like stroking a large dog waiting only for the touch of a large owner.

“*Sunbae-nim*. You’re saying that because you’ve got the perfect shot, right?”

“How did you know? You’re working so hard, Yeon-woo, so I have to match you. This is all for our own good. Isn’t it?”

The smiling gazes met.

Chwa chwa chwa chwach!

The shutter sound, which was already firing like crazy, became even more urgent.

This is because Yeon-woo and Yeon Do-hee, who had already taken their positions, began to naturally act out ‘naturalness.’

Following Yeon-woo’s lead, Yeon Do-hee skillfully matched him.

From serious eye contact to playful teasing.

When Yeon-woo reached out his hand, Yeon Do-hee matched him, and when Yeon Do-hee deliberately turned around and shrugged her shoulders, Yeon-woo playfully lowered his upper body and made a pleading expression.

When the children running around them joined in, an atmosphere that could only be described as ‘family’ was created.

“This is bound to get a good response.”

“There are already people who are shipping them, so isn’t this going to be a big deal?”

“Huh? What shipping in a movie, not a reality show?”

“That amazing thing really happened. Ta-da~!”

That’s what the people watching were saying.

As the shoot continued.

A comfortable atmosphere that could only be had by people who were really close and had been by each other’s side for a long time flowed between the two.

In response, the strobe and shutter sounds that burst out were very chaotic.

“Our Yeon-woo, I heard you’ve been single since birth, but all the singles in this world must be dead. How could you survive as a single?”

“I… I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that word.”

“It was a compliment?”

If all the singles in the world were like Yeon-woo, the world would already be full of love.

Yeon Do-hee did not forget to give a meaningful warning, saying ambiguous words whether it was a compliment or not.

“I don’t care because I’m already wearing rose-colored glasses, but you should be careful when filming with other people. You might be misunderstood for no reason.”

“Surely not. Everyone will be a professional.”

“Um. Well. You’ll find out when you experience it yourself? No, aren’t you already experiencing it…?”
