it wasnât completely accidental. well, it was, but him staying was no accident.Â
night had long since fallen over busan. heâd just happened to pass by a building on his way home emitting loud music, something electronic and upbeat and honestly a little bit unsettling. the building wasnât run down per se, but it wasnât exactly a place heâd find himself in too often. or at all, rather, but for some reason, he stood in front of the door, unmoving. the music wasnât that bad, now that he really listened to it. it definitely wasnât the type of music he was accustomed to, but he wasnât one to judge that quickly.
curiosity got the best of him, and without thinking twice, he pushed open the door to the building. the musicâs volume increased tenfold when he stepped inside, so much so that he had to take a second to recollect himself from it. he didnât know what he was expecting, but the sight of a rather large mosh pit and a band clad in bright colors was definitely not it. a hand reached up to adjust his glasses slightly, as if would help him to see the performance better. he was really in awe that there was this kind of lifestyle, that there was this kind of thing happening in the real world. this was usually a trope youâd find in the movies.
how long had he been standing there watching them? it was only ten minutes, right? he mustâve caught them just as they were ending, because now he was watching them give their parting words before walking off stage. people began filtering out the door behind him, and he found himself with his back against the wall as the crowd pushed and shoved to get through.Â
soon enough he was the last one in the room, too much of a weakling to try to fight through the crowd like everyone else was doing before. with a sigh, he exits the building and grabs onto the straps of his bookbag before readying himself to begin the walk home once again. he had to admit he was thankful that he stopped to listen, he really enjoyed broadening his horizons. he even made a mental note to look up the band when he got home-- bisou, he was able to get from the bandâs parting words and from the various posters plastered all over the venue.
byunghun only managed to take one step before he heard the door open behind him. turning around, he immediately recognized the face as the lead singer of the group heâd just watched-- well. canât pass up this opportunity. heâs gotta at least say something, right?Â
âexcuse me, miss?â he says, hoping to catch her attention before she walked by. thankfully, she stopped and looked at him. he realized now sheâd probably be a little off put-- he didnât look like one of the people who wouldâve attended one of her gigs. he looked a little too pretentious for that. âyouâre the lead singer for that group, um... bisou, right? wah, you guys are really so cool! that electronic type of music isnât really my style, but you managed to convert a new fan! you guys really look like you came straight from a movie!â somehow heâd gotten a little too excited thinking about it, but he was being genuine.
