[Episode 6] You're So Different - (2) [Yeon-i-pyeon]
유 연
Hey... how long are you going to hold that arm...?
전정국(근대왕)
So what? It won't be a big deal if I just grab his arm, right??
유 연
No...!! (Hey x)
Jeongguk, who held Yeon-i's arm so naturally and spoke as if nothing was wrong, felt like a stranger.
유 연
Jo... You don't even know that in the Joseon Dynasty, men and women were not allowed to sit together until they were seven years old!!!?!
전정국(근대왕)
Haha ...
Because Jungkook laughed so loudly, everyone around them looked at them, and Yeon-i's face turned red, whether it was because of the people's gaze or because she was embarrassed by Jungkook's words.
유 연
A...that's not it!!!!///
전정국(근대왕)
You have to hurry, my lady!! This is not the time to be so upset!!!!
유 연
What the...who is this!!!..!?!?? Why is it going so fast all of a sudden!!!!!!
Before Yeon-i could respond, Jeong-guk didn't let go of her arm and instead started walking faster.
전정국(근대왕)
Look over there!!!!! The lantern festival is about to start!!!!!
Jeongguk looked at Yeon-i with a very excited expression, and pointed with his finger to the scenery under the orange sunset sky.
유 연
Wow... wow~....
As she followed Jeongguk's fingers, Yeon-i's eyes were struck by a twinkling orange light that seemed to capture the sunset sky.
유 연
Wow..really..pretty~
Yeon-i, who had spent her days in a city filled with LED lights and suffocating just to look at, was immersed in the mysterious and strange atmosphere she encountered for the first time.
전정국(근대왕)
Although lantern festivals aren't unique to Joseon, I don't think there's anything quite as beautiful as this one. Isn't that right, my lady?
유 연
Well... really... I think so...
전정국(근대왕)
Lady!!
유 연
Uh..why?
Jungkook suddenly lowered his voice, and Yeon-i flinched in surprise and asked,
전정국(근대왕)
Suddenly I want to drink my alcohol!!ㅎ
Contrary to her worries, Jeongguk smiled brightly and was already standing in front of the inn, speaking to Yeon-i.
유 연
???...I feel like I've already had a drink...is it just me??
전정국(근대왕)
How about you come in and have a drink too!!
유 연
When you're making a fuss about the lantern festival starting, why are you suddenly drinking??!...
전정국(근대왕)
Okay. Come here!!
Ignoring Yeon-i's words, he pulled the female protagonist's arm and sat her down, then smiled at her.
주모
Okay~ I'm in a really good mood today, so I made a lot of food, so don't leave any behind and eat it all!!!
전정국(근대왕)
Thank you!!~Huh..!?..N..What should I do if you drink it all at once like that, Miss!!!?!??!
Before the alcohol even reached the top, Yeon-i grabbed the bottle, poured herself a drink, and downed it all in one shot.
유 연
Kihyaaaa(?)~~!!!!!!!!!!!!
전정국(근대왕)
N.. I think you have a stronger tolerance than you look lol
전정국(근대왕)
They say there's the best drinker in Joseon in Hanyang. Is he not a man but a lady?? ㅋㅋㅋ
유 연
This is nothing!!!! Hehe~~~(I've already had another drink..ㅎ)
전정국(근대왕)
Huh~?? N.. Miss, I think it would be better to stop drinking now..
유 연
Yah!!!!!!! (already drunk lol).....What are you talking about, Niduri Sojuru!?!??!
전정국(근대왕)
Hey..lady, stop eating...!!!!!!!!!!
전정국(근대왕)
Ha...Mom!!!!!! It would be better to clear the table here in advance!!!!!!!!!
유 연
Let's go!!!!..Jibe..let's goee ...
전정국(근대왕)
My lady...there's no way I could possibly know where you live!?!?
유 연
.......zzzzz......(jump)
전정국(근대왕)
Hey...!??!..ㄴ...Where are you going, young lady!!! Young lady!!!! Come with me!!!!!!
Yeon-i fell asleep for a moment, then suddenly woke up, came to her senses, and walked forward.
전정국(근대왕)
Huh...huh...my lady...why are you walking so fast...
유 연
......
전정국(근대왕)
Ha.......I've used up all my energy chasing you, so I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea to walk slowly until you sober up....
유 연
......
'Thump thump'
In the Joseon Dynasty, when there were no streetlights, they simply walked in silence until the moonlight became a thin ray that touched the ground.
At that moment, Jeong-guk secretly grabbed Yeon-i's hand.
유 연
...!!!!!!!!
Thanks to that, Yeon-i was surprised and almost sobered up, but for some reason she was fidgeting.
To Jeong-guk, Yeon-i just seemed cute.
전정국(근대왕)
My lady. Tonight... isn't the moon really bright?
전정국(근대왕)
How are you, my lady??
유 연
Yeah... It's really bright...
Yeon-i looked at the bright, round moon floating in the black sky like a black piece of paper and thought of Jimin.
유 연
Sigh.....(I miss Jimin oppa.....)
At that moment, Jeongguk kept coming closer to Yeon-i, taking half a step at a time, and then he smiled faintly, and the wind blew away the translucent cloth that was hanging around Yeon-i's ear and covering her mouth.
유 연
..!!!!!!!...What the... are you doing right now...!!!!! Huh..!?!?
Before Yeon-i could even respond, Jeong-guk grabbed Yeon-i's neck, visible through the collar of her hanbok, with one hand and kissed her.
유 연
Ugh...sob!!!!!/////
In that moment, Yeon-i remembered something she had read in a book before. In the Joseon Dynasty, the phrase "the moon is really bright tonight" was a way of expressing a confession... But by the time this thought occurred to her, Jeong-guk's lips were already touching hers.
Yeon-i tried to escape, but Jeong-guk wouldn't let go easily. She barely managed to push Jeong-guk's shoulder, and only then did Jeong-guk part his lips.
유 연
Huh.....hah.....
전정국(근대왕)
Haa...haa...(snickers)
Jeongguk looked at Yeon-i with a smile, and tears were falling from Yeon-i's eyes.
유 연
Sigh...sob...sob..
Yeon-i immediately ran away, leaving behind the flustered Jeong-guk.
Running endlessly, Yeon-i was maddeningly annoyed and angry at the fact that her heart raced, even if only for a brief moment, for another man, not Jimin.
유 연
Oh...oh...oh...no...that's not it...
Yeon-i just wanted to deny everything
He said he was just too drunk on the atmosphere tonight...
