Portrait of a Hwanjang

Prologue _ [Portrait of a Hwanjang]

A leisurely Sunday morning, with warm sunlight shining downIn the quiet room, a cell phone notification rang.

Jiying-




I was startled and picked up my phoneI checked the notification that kept ringing.




This is a portrait request.
Excited about the application that came in after a long timeWhile I was reading it intently,




"......I told you I don't accept celebrities..."





He said he was a person who only drew portraits of applicants' faces.I think it was written in the notice too. Ugh... I'll hold back. I'm going to come out.I suppressed my anger and continued the conversation calmly.





But as the replies insisting that he was right continued,I felt my patience was at its limit. So kindI explained it to you, but you still don't understand? Keep DMing me.I thought we wouldn't be able to communicate even if we exchanged words, so I just roughly drew a pictureI decided to send it. And in exactly 3 minutesI finished the drawing.


"Let's see if it keeps raining even if I draw it like this."




No matter how much I think about it, I'm so angry that I just roughly drew a pictureAfter sending it, I immediately pressed and held the block button.
...This was really a wrong choice.

"This is a notification from Jeon Jungkook!"




I quickly saw the message that appeared at the top of my phone screen.
I logged into the personal application.


"uh...?"



Why are you... coming out of there?
