Their faces were inches away now, and Hari couldn’t help but notice the way his Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed. “Oh, really? Well, we can’t have the love of my life being confused about our special activity. You know, she’s quite precious to me.”
She winked. “She’s probably really pretty, isn’t she?”
“Prettier than me, that’s for sure,” he said smoothly and captured her lips with his.
or: taemoo sneaks out to see hari in the middle of the night.
hatae, 1.1k words, written for @eggothemusicalwaffle and i's tayriana songfic challenge! inspired by our song by @taylorswift, also on ao3.
notes:
hi friends (✿◠‿◠) welcome back to my tayriana songfic challenge : hatae’s version !!
if you’re new — which i assume u are, unless u are also in the ml fandom haha — hi i’m shri !!! i love fluff and cute adorable wholesome moments so that’s mainly what i write <33
essentially a quick rundown of this challenge: i'm writing a songfic for one song from each of taylor & ariana’s albums!! i’ve already posted one for you belong with me, my song for fearless tv, and it’s a childhood friends high school au !! so if that’s something you’re interested in, i’ll link here :)
the song this songfic is for is from debut: our song !! it focuses on hari & taemoo’s secret relationship and has some minor changes so that it’s more convenient for the plot i had planned out XD. i made it so that hari got her own apartment after she got a job at gofood & her parents aren’t in serious debt anymore (as in she can afford her own place fine and her parents are holding up perfectly fine! as they should). taemoo still lives with dagoo like canon suggests, so if you’re wondering if that’s the same, it is.
“Ba-Taemoo? What are you doing here?” Her cheeks burned at the way his lips curved up into a smirk — he most definitely caught onto her slip up — and whispered, “It’s past midnight. I thought you were staying with your grandfather- mmf!”
Taemoo lightly pressed his index finger against her lips, carefully pushing them back into the apartment before looking into her eyes. “I missed you,” he said with a nonchalant shrug, kicking the front door shut simultaneously. “Grandfather has been bothering me about the blind dates all night so I excused myself for the night and snuck out to see you.”
Hari was sure her skin was at least two shades of pink darker. Maybe strawberry red even. “You risked getting caught — in trouble — for me?” His cheeks seemed to take a light red tint, and Hari couldn’t help but pout and wrap her arms around him. The smile on her face grew as he squeezed her back, resting his head on top of hers. It was like he was a giant teddy bear and she was so small in comparison.
She loved that feeling more than anything else, really, but she’d never admit that to him.
“I did,” he admitted and pressed a gentle kiss onto her forehead. “Like I said, I missed you.”
Hari grinned and tugged him towards the kitchen. Sometimes, she wished he weren’t rich and famous and they could have genuine dates in public without being scared of blowing their cover, but nothing could beat the sight of Taemoo — her boyfriend! — searching for a bag of popcorn with a confused expression. She found it adorable how his lips pushed out slightly and his eyebrows knit together when he couldn’t figure something out.
She giggled softly as he opened what was probably the fifteenth drawer. “You would think after dating me for awhile you would know your way around here,” she said in a teasing tone as she went on her tippy toes to open a cabinet. “It’s in, uh, that one,” she said with a groan.
Curse her short genes.
She heard Taemoo chuckle from behind her and couldn’t help but flush again, heat rushing to her cheeks. Was it getting hot in here?
“No, the air conditioning’s on.”
Oh. Her skin felt like it was burning now, and Hari was sure her skin was just as red as the bag the popcorn was in. “Did I say that out loud?”
Taemoo smirked. “Do you need a lift?”
She took that as a yes. “Perhaps. What do you think, Mister Knight in shining armor?” Hari booped his nose gently and held back the urge to coo gently at the way his eyes crossed to look at her finger.
What she didn’t expect was for him to lift her up with one arm, open the cabinet with the other, grab the paper-like bag of popcorn — she had made it earlier in the day, thankfully — and run towards her bedroom. She would’ve lied if she said it hadn’t been slightly exhilarating, especially when he dropped her onto the comfy cushioning of her bed without any warning.
His hands framed her in a sense, resting on both sides of her head, and her breath caught in her throat as their eyes locked. This man was so, so, so beautiful, and Hari really was in denial that he was all hers — strings attached. There was no way she was that lucky.
“You know,” his deep voice cut her out of her mini daydream, “I think we could do something.. else, rather than watch a movie.”
The corner of her smile lifted up and she couldn’t help the flirty tone that laced her words. “Oh yeah? What something else?” She dragged her hand down his button up, kissing away the small droplet of sweat falling down his forehead. “I think I need a more in depth explanation.”
Their faces were inches away now, and Hari couldn’t help but notice the way his Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed. “Oh, really? Well, we can’t have the love of my life being confused about our special activity. You know, she’s quite precious to me.”
She winked. “She’s probably really pretty, isn’t she?”
“Prettier than me, that’s for sure,” he said smoothly and captured her lips with his. His lips were soft — as they always were — and sweet. They tasted subtly like espresso and vanilla, and Hari couldn’t resist the urge to kiss him over and over again. They fit perfectly, like two pieces of a puzzle, and she loved that more than she could express in words. There were not enough words in any language to express the love she felt for him.
As they pulled away briefly, Hari couldn’t help but gasp. “Y-Your.. your lips-”
Taemoo brushed his thumb against his bottom lip and a red tint appeared on his skin. His eyes flickered to Hari’s lips — lipstick all smeared on her lips — and smirked. “Could you get the lipstick you used today, baby?”
Her cheeks felt almost feverish at the nickname — she honestly had liked it when he had called her that constantly when pretending to be her boyfriend — but held herself together as she nodded and got up to retrieve it. The tube was standing upright near her sink and she handed it to him.
She, however, did not expect for him to open the tube, gently cup her face, and apply the lipstick to her lips again. She was sure the pigment of the makeup matched her skin in the moment, but she couldn’t bring herself to care. He tapped the side of his cheek with a small smile and she grinned, planting a kiss onto his cheek.
“Now everyone will know who owns my heart,” he said proudly, and Hari couldn’t help but laugh and shake her head,
He was so cute.
“What if it washes off before work tomorrow?” She asked genuinely. Lipstick prints didn’t last that long, right?
“Then you’ll kiss me again, perhaps on the lips this time?” He wiggled his eyebrows, and Hari’s heart skipped a beat at how carefree he was.
“Of course, of course,” she said honestly, a big smile on her face as she wrapped her arms and legs around him. “What color?”
“Red.”
And, as promised, Kang Taemoo walked into GoFood the next day proudly, with a red lipstick kiss mark on his right cheek.
i’ve heard every album, listened to the radio
waited for something to come along
that was as good as our song
notes: swifties my loves pls dont come for me for using a wildest dream lyric as the title for an our song songfic 🥲

ENTRY 2/2 KDrama Blog 04/05/2022 | 8:18 pm (repost)
This is another blog for the second comfort drama that I really loved since the news about the casts was announced.
Magtatagalog na lang po ako para damang-dama. Hahahahaha! So this is my last entry and hindi ko alam kung kailan ako makakapagblog na naman. So I’m doing this blog after I watched the final episode ng Business Peoposal. Partida, walang subtitle eh hinhintay ko pa nag 10:30. To be honest, wala naman ako plano manood ng ongoing series o ni Kdrama dahil natrauma na ako lalo sa mga ending. But noong napanood ko ang teasers, and the first episode, naadik na ko sa story, casts, characters, and plot. Yes cliches yung ibang parts pero iba yung saya kapag napanood mo yung drama na isang oras ka tumatawa, kinikilig , at magugulat. Yes, literal na tawa talaga kasi ibang klase ito na Rom-Com, nabasa ko na yung manhwa and talagang may ibang parts na iniba kaya unexpected ang mga scenes.
It is a stress reliever drama pati na din yung mga OSTs . Grabe yung kilig and fun kapag maririnig ko lalo na yung Love, Maybe.
I really the characters here, walang masyadong nakakainis , good vibes lahat starting kay harabeoji/chairman Kang, research development team 1, shin's family and the four main characters.
I thought it will be just a simple rom-com but it was unexpected on how the audience loved the drama, casts and the songs. Sobra, talaga! Even me, na naghahanap ng something new sa Kdrama ay naattached talaga sa drama na to. To be honest, I am a fan of Sejeong and Hyoseop since I watched their dramas talaga. Ahem pati yung Busted, abangers talaga din ako ng drama. The pairing was unexpected and surprising since Sejeong was not the first choice but she nailed her character Shin Hari, Shin Geum Hui and Jin Young Seo(Blind date). Nakakalito nga pero , first episode pa lang, she got me with her Samantha and Rachel lines. Hahahahaha. I won't ever forget that. I like her positivity and her dedication to work. I was amazed also on how she is the best ever friend of Young Seo. They're both chaotics and I love their genuine friendship. Shin Hari is the best Girlfriend I ever watched in a Kdrama. Sabi nga nila, the Nation's Girlfriend. I admired her character a lot especially when she comforted Taemu in his trauma during their date and when he was hospitalized. Kim Sejeong really deserved this character and she nailed. Saranghae Sejeong! Mas lalo pa ko napamahal sa character niya since relate na relate ako doon sa time na may crush siya doon kay Minwoo for 7 years. Yung part na umiyak siya sa bus stop, sh*t, ramdam na ramdam ko yung sakit ng unrequited love. Yung mahal mo siya ng palihim, pero natatakot ka kasi baka masira yung friendship niyo. And she never took an advantage doon sa nalaman niya sa gf ni Minwoo. Despite of unrequited love, she found genuine and reciprocated love with Kang Taemu. They were really destined to each other. ❤❤❤ So, Shin Hari, you are deserved to love and to be loved by Kang Taemu!
Jin Young Seo is the best friend na gusto ko magkaroon in real life, she have done her best to support and protect her best friend. All her efforts talaga, grabe! Saan kayo makakahanap ng ganitong best friend? Tapos may black card pa! HAHAHAHA I love her bluntness and the way she pursued Secretary Cha was so lit. In the last part, gustong gusto ko yung pinaglabanan niya yung relationship niya with Sunghoon kay father niya. I'm so happy for them and thank you Seol In ah for portraying Hari's ever supportive best friend. Thank you because of you, Taemu and Hari won't meet.
Naks! Kay Archaeopteryx naman tayo aka as President Kang Tae-mu. Ahn Hyo Seop nailed this character even nasanay ako sa roles niya sa drama na heavy and emotional. It was just so refreshing to watch him in a Rom-Com drama talaga. And grabe yung chemistry nila Sejeong and hopefully, kahit tapos na yung drama, nandoon pa din yung closeness and support nila sa isa't-isa. Or magdate na lang sila. Char! Alam naman kalakaran sa Korean Entertainment industry, but maybe someday, somehow, di ba Dispatch?!?!?
Okay back to Taemu, I admired his personality talaga na workaholic and persistent sa lahat ng nagagawa especially when he wanted Hari to marry him and pati na din yung part na nafall na siya kay Hari. Nakakatawa lang yung part na gusto niya gantihan si Hari but it was changed during the drunk call and confession of Hari.
Then, during their relationship, napakahealthy lang ng relasyon nila, no dramas, no issues and wala naman kaagaw. I admired Taemu for being consistent and straightforward with his feelings towards Shin Hari. Gustong gusto ko yung lagi siyang tumititig and you can feel that deepest love na meron siya para kay Hari. Naloloka ako sa kanya nunun una because he seemed cold and focus lang sa work but he really changed when he met Hari in an unexpected amd chaotic way. Thank you Kang Taemu (baka naman pa black card, yate, or pakain naman diyan sa restaurant, hahahahah) for going to the blind date and meeting there your jagiya, Shin Hari. Despite his grandfather objections and office rumors, he never gave up on Hari and he still pursued her until the end. Kudos to you Kang Taemu, for being the best boyfriend to Hari and future husband to her. You're really good in all things, sabi mo nga and you prove it right. Don't worry, Shin Hari will always be there in your side and will accept your past, flaws and weaknesses. Just continue loving Shin Hari and Harabeoji, chairman Kang.
Omg! My superduper crush, secretary Cha. To be honest, sa kanya ako naattract throughout the drama. KIM MIN KYU portrayed him well and he was so fine and I cannot resist his oozing hotness (when he removed his eyeglasses and shirt) and handsomeness, shit sama mo pa yung nakakamatay niyang dimples. Jusko! Sa SNOWDROP kasi bwisit na bwisit ako sa kanya talaga, yung role niya na si comrade Jo na mahilig sa cup noodles. Hahahahaha! He was a North Korean spy who turned into a GENTLE, HANDSOME, KIND, CUTE AND SEXY SECRETARY CHA SUNGHOON. Min Kyu really looked like the manhwa version. Despite being an orphan, he was treated wholeheartedly by the Kang family. JUSKO. Mas mahaba mahaba ang appreciation message ko sa kanya. So, ganito nga eh nasanay ako sa second male lead nafafall talaga eh. It was like gustong gusto ko siya, what an ideal man he is. I really love hus character in the drama, the gentleness, and cuteness lalo na pag bromance sila ni Taemu. Sana nga may double wedding sila eh hoping pero kahit special episodes lang naman. Char!
Nakakagukat din na he fell in love at first sight kay Young Seo and he crossed the line already para maexpress niya yung nararamdaman talaga niya. Pati na din yung support na ipinakita niya kay YoungSeo when he gave his savings(billion won yun eh) and wanted to invest with Young Seo's company. Hala mahaba na nga but still I admired his character so much not only as a secretary but also a brother, and friend to Taemu. Thank you Cha Sunghoon for rooting HaTae couple and showing your love towards Young Seo. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! (Pasensya na, ngayon ulit ako na attract sa isang Kdrama fictional character)
Finally, today/yesterday, the drama ended with 12 episodes. Maikli man pero napakaworth it yung paghihintay ko ng Monday and Tuesday kahit napakaaayaw ko ng Monday talaga. Hahahaha! My Mon-Tue will be incomplete already because there were no more Business Proposal episodes. Legit umiyak ako kanina dahil sa tuwa nang endgame si Line at HaTae couple. Naiyak din sa lungkot dahil tapos na ang drama pero I felt satisfied with the flow of the story on each episode. Worth it yung 149 ko sa Netflix at pati na din pagpupuyat ko kahit may klase kinabukasan
This drama relieved my stress and brought me back sa mga drama noon na napakalight lang ng plot at na puro tawa, kilig at walang masyadong conflicts. I won't ever forget this drama and I will recommend it to other Kdrama fans out there.
Thank you HaTae and Line couples for giving us this drama that comforts everyone. It made me love Mon-Tue and it is difficult to accept there were no more episodes of BP next week. 😭 My next week will be incomplete but I will continue to support the casts.
The ending was so ❤. Thank you Kim Sejeong, Ahn Hyo Seop, Seol Inah and Kim Minkyu for being part of this comfort drama. Thank you somuch for bringing Kang Tae-mu, Shin Hari, Cha Sunghoon and Jin Young-seo in our Kdrama world. It is so much love, fun, laughter, lightness, positivity and comfort that we received from this drama. It's been awhile since I was hooked in watching and finishing ongoing series. Thank you so much, SBS staff the manhwa author, and all the casts. Saranghae! ❤😭

think i know where you belong (think i know it's with me)
“Would it be awkward if I told you that I really want to kiss you right now?”
If anything, he didn’t expect the subtle smirk plastered on Hari’s face — she was so attractive — as she replied, “Would it be awkward if I kissed you right back?”
hatae, 1.1k words, childhood friends, high school au, inspired by you belong with me by taylor swift ! also on ao3.
Taemoo knew he shouldn’t have been surprised by the fact that his grandfather had started yet another argument, especially since it was about his parents. The two of them really hadn’t been getting along very well together for the past couple of months, but today had been the worst.
Tears threatened to stream down his face as he nearly slammed his head against the steering wheel. The self deprecating thoughts reentered his mind and he couldn’t stop the bulge in his throat from growing.
“You’ll never be good enough for this family”, his grandfather had said before he had left. “You were the reason why your parents passed away, and you are the reason they’re not here today. You should be ashamed of yourself for having the nerve to stand here.”
And to think his grandfather was the one who saved him from dying himself.
He exhaled and took out his phone out of his pocket, swallowing another gulp of air as he unlocked it and opened the messages app. He knew she was probably asleep, but it was worth a shot, right?
taemoo today at 2:32am
are you awake?
Surprisingly, she responded within seconds. Was she doing homework? He wouldn’t be surprised if she was. Out of the two of them, Hari had always been the smarter one, whereas he’d always been more interested in sports, like her younger brother Hamin. The two of them were on the boys track team at their school, so whenever they had practices, Hari would do her homework on the bleachers.
They were in very different cliques, but they had been friends since they were in Ms. Park’s Cooking Class for Kids together all the way when they were three years old, and he didn’t plan on stopping now. Hari was his rock, his best friend, his everything. He would be nothing without her.
hari today at 2:33am
yeah. working on a chem assignment for ms kim
why whats up?? is everything ok??
taemoo???
what happened do i need to come get u

He chuckled and responded to her messages with a fond expression.

taemoo today at 2:37am

hari today at 2:37am

taemoo today at 2:38am

hari today at 2:38am
i try <3
taemoo today at 2:38am
<3
i'm the one who makes you laugh
when you know you're 'bout to cry
Taemoo couldn’t help but feel guilty as he pressed the doorbell and the door immediately opened, revealing a visibly tired Hari. Had he woken her up? Was the chemistry homework a cover up? Was she lying to him too?
“Taemoo?” His head snapped back to hers, her big brown eyes flooded with concern. “Are you okay? Did he hurt you?”
Suddenly it felt as though his throat had closed up and his mouth was glued shut. He had never been an emotional personal in his life ever, minus when his parents passed away, but in that moment, staring in Hari’s eyes, he couldn’t help but let the burning sensation he had been holding back for so long let go. It felt almost soothing for the tears to finally streak his skin.
He felt the pressure of Hari’s smaller arms wrap around him as she let him into the house, leading them into the living room. His limbs felt weak and even with her supporting him, he couldn’t help but nearly topple over as soon as his body touched the leather couch.
“You’re going to be okay,” she whispered into his ear, repeating it like a mantra as she rubbed his back gently. “Everything’s going to be okay. I promise.”
A small part of him hoped she kept her promise and a small smile painted his face in return.
and i know your favorite songs
and you tell me 'bout your dreams
think i know where you belong
think i know it's with me
“Do you want to distract yourself?”
Taemoo blinked. He and Hari had been cuddling — platonically, or whatever that was — for nearly an hour, and he was so close to falling asleep right then and there. “Distract myself with what?”
She ran her fingers through his hair gently, and a warm feeling burned in his cheeks. What? “We could sing to some songs. It’s bad luck to sleep at three in the morning, anyways, so we can karaoke until, like, four or something. It’ll be fun!”
He grasped her left hand gently, pressing a kiss onto the back of it, completely oblivious to the way her cheeks turned a bright shade of pink. “That sounds fun. What songs do you have in mind?”
Her smile definitely mirrored his as she slowly lifted him off of her and extended her hand out. “Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you?”
He bit back a chuckle at her obvious adoration for Taylor Swift and let her lift him up. “Been here all along, so, why can't you see? You belong with me,” he sang quietly, extending the last vowel.
“Standing by and waiting at your backdoor, all this time how could you not know, baby?” Her eyes lingered on his for a beat longer, and Taemoo swallowed. He couldn’t deny it much longer, could he?
“You belong with me, have you ever thought just maybe,” she sang sweetly, and he couldn’t help but watch the way her lips moved. So sweet, so pink, so cute, so kissable.
“You belong with me? You belong with me.” Their faces were so close to each other as they finished out together, and he couldn’t help the words that came out of him next.
“Would it be awkward if I told you that I really want to kiss you right now?”
If anything, he didn’t expect the subtle smirk plastered on Hari’s face — she was so attractive — as she replied, “Would it be awkward if I kissed you right back?”
His smile lifted up and he couldn’t help but laugh. “Would you like to find out?”
She answered by capturing his lips with hers, his senses immediately taken over by the familiar taste of vanilla and grapefruit, and he wouldn’t have had it any other way.
during the beginning of business proposal, taemu wears darker colors (black, dark grey, etc), but once he starts dating hari, he starts wearing lighter colors (yellow, blue, light grey, white) and it's so precious???? like . they're so special to me T-T
i just NEED a wedding episode. one. with them both in all white. and him playing the piano at the reception. is that so much to ask ?????? the urge to write one myself is so strong i cant do this today
