A man with a tight schedule, Yoo replays the entire possible scenario in his head. He has one target in mind, a fellow scholar and acquaintance. Associated with SNU has its perks as a tutor, oftentimes being the prime candidate for up-and-coming students who desperately need supplementary guidance. Fortunately, he oft uses this to his advantage in fulfilling his draconic, hoarding antics, abating his endless thirst for greater pursuit of knowledge, particularly intellectual property and especially archaic tomes, though he would never resort to theft to acquire such treasures. One more time, he runs the simulation through his thoughts, readying to ask Ms. Kang for that long-coveted first-edition from the catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, an Egyptian relic from one of the Seven Wonders of the Middle Ages. To him, this will satiate his desire for a long time and raise the value of his collection back at his home.

Tap! Tap! He knocks a couple of times before letting himself in her intermediary class, with the session already ended. Eyes wander around the bare room, only spotting the professor a few paces out. Being polite yet pushing his mission, he approaches in large strides, stifling his excitement as he greets, “Excuse me, Ms. Kang?” A curious brow props up, taken aback at her simple beauty. “Gong Yoo,” he places a hand on his chest, “I have a proposition. I heard you are a collector. As am I.” Treading carefully, he does not show his full hand, only present a picture of the Egyptian codex to her. “Would you happen to know the contents of this book?”

     Within the comforts of his spacious living quarters, Dongsun slouched in his seat as he clicked away at videos recommended by Youtube based on the kinds of videos he had watched. He enjoyed the new uploads from channels he was subscribed to like some marathon, since he had been focused on nothing but work these past few weeks that it simply wasn’t possible for him to concentrate on anything else.

     Now satiated from his horror and true crime series binge, he then looked up on the new releases in the world of music, domestically and internationally. He read up on some articles and watched some clips of performances of artists he listened to from the recently held Coachella event. 

     Based from the variety of artists and performances, he realized and appreciated the fact this this was truly the age where it wasn’t just one era of music defining this generation. To him, it felt like the clashing of eras-- as there were countless of genres to choose from at this point. In fact, it did a favor for the producer’s fickle nature. If he ever got worn out from listening to a single genre, he could jump over to another. For a music buff like him, this was almost like paradise.

     And afterwards, he decided to look up specific covers of some songs that left an impression on him from the event. In this day and age, with social media running more rampant than ever, any of these Youtube channels could make a name for themselves if they were granted with the grand combination of luck and opportunity. After all, it was how Dongsun got recruited as a producer a decade ago. Oh, how time flies.

     Unimpressed with the first few suggestions, he scrolled down further. “Hm?” His sunglasses-covered eyes squinted at a face displayed at the thumbnail. Were his eyes playing tricks on him? Or did he find the Youtuber familiar? Curious, he clicked on the video. And as soon as she greeted herself, his eyes widened in surprise. “Eh? Hanhee-ah?” He couldn’t believe it. It was one of his closest colleagues when he first started out as a producer-in-training. Her smile, her aura, and especially her voice... It was undoubtedly her.

003. It’s a cliche, but be yourself. It’s obvious when someone is forcing to act this or that way, and it’s absolutely unnecessary. Of course sometimes Myungsoo can be intimidating and people might thinks they need to adjust to his personality, but don’t. Face him if you want to. Express what you’re thinking, what you’re feeling. He like that.
