“surely we’re not home alone this evening, are we?” kyungjoo commented, looking up from the couch. sure, most of their children had left the nest to go move into dorms and start the next chapter of their careers, but the nest wasn’t empty quite yet. not that she’d be complaining about a night relaxing with her partner, of course.. “where are naeun and goeun?” @rvyoonseok​ @rvjinkyung​

“i think we are,” yoonseok said after taking a moment’s pause to think. “naeun is spending the night at the spotlight trainee dorms-- she said something about an early morning evaluation, and how she didn’t to get up extra early to commute. and goeun went to a movie with riki....” he recalled. “that’s at least a few hours of solace...”

“you know, it’s nice being not-famous here yet,” zak admitted. “i know that’s gonna change when my group debuts, but i couldn’t walk anywhere in LA without getting someone pointing at me. it’s cool to be normal for a few months.”

“no one recognizes you here? i thought those kinds of shows would still get some sort of traction,” yoonseok mused. “you should enjoy it for now, though-- debuting in a higher group is going to blow  you up way more than your show did. trust me.”

“if you’re too busy, it’s okay… i won’t be upset,” goeun insisted softly, hugging her script to her chest. “i just need to have this script memorized for my eval tomorrow and thought it would be easier if someone ran lines with me but… i can ask my sister. maybe she’s free…”

“sweetheart, i’m hardly too busy. and i’m definitely less busy than naeun is,” he said with a little chuckle. “bring me the script. lets see what i can do to help you out.”

“daaaaad, i need your help!” soeun whined, tugging on her dad’s arm like a petulant child (a cute one, though). “we’re working on our face acting before our debut, and i’m just so bad at it! i need you to make me better!” @soladarv​

“you know i’m an actor, right? not a .... face actor?” he answered, a little confused but laughing at his daughter’s insistence. “i know how to react to give a realistic performance, not how to convey musical concepts but....i can try to help, i suppose.”
