The photo studio door opened.
A moment of silence.

Jeongguk in his sweaty fencing uniform
I quietly crossed the threshold.
“…Isn’t that a nuisance?”
In the silence, the manager nodded absentmindedly.
Jungkook spoke straight away.
“I came to apply for modeling.”
At that moment, the air changed completely.
That kid wasn't in the photography club.
But still, he said it as if nothing had happened.
“I’m not sure about the conditions…

The female protagonist spoke first.
“That project.
“Everyone will only look at you.”
Jungkook turned his head with a blank expression.
“That’s why I wish it were you.”
"…why?"
“You know how I come out

The heroine paused for a moment.
Jeongguk continued.
“What is my expression like when I am photographed,

“Because he kept looking at me while I was filming.”

The first day of filming for the project.
The two met on the school rooftop.
Jungkook wore a shirt over his school uniform,
The female protagonist prepared to take the picture using only her hands, without a tripod.
“There is no concept today.
Just you.”
Jeongguk nodded.
"okay.
Just me.”
The heroine takes a deep breath,
I pressed the shutter.

After filming,

A few days later.
Min-gyu passes through the photography club hallway.
I glanced at the two people who were filming.
The female protagonist presses the shutter,
The scene where Jeongguk looks at him.
