๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Ugh... I can't see very well...?

Fumbling

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ

Ah, I was startled!!

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ 

What's going on?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

(Clutching my knee) Ow...

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ  image

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ 

Huh? Jiwoo didn't sleep?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Yes... haha

์ „์›์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ

Approaching Jiwoo and holding out a hand) Are you okay? It must hurt a lot.

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

(Standing up while holding hands) It's okay..!

(Sitting on the sofa)

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

But why aren't you two sleeping?

์ „์›์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ

Oh, we were playing PlayStation. Why weren't you sleeping?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

I couldn't sleep... and I was bored, so I was thinking of going out with anyone else who wasn't sleeping yet haha.

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ  image

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ 

Lol, were you that bored?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Yes... haha

์ „์›์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ

Jiwoo, do you like games by any chance?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Yes!! I really like you!!

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ  image

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ 

Then do you want to do it together?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Um... no, haha. I don't really want to do it right now. Let's do it together next time!

์ „์›์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ

Hmm... yeah!

์ „์›์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ

Then what are you going to do?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Well...? Shall we go for a walk...?

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ  image

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ 

Shaking her head) No, going for a walk at this hour would be a little scary. The lights outside are broken, so it's really dark around here. It's hard to see, so it would be dangerous.

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Ah... then what should I do...?

์ „์›์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ

Then, would you like to go to the terrace?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

The terrace?

์ „์›์šฐ image

์ „์›์šฐ

Yeah. The terrace has soft light coming in and a nice atmosphere, so you'll probably like it too.

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Oh! Thank you!

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ  image

์ตœ์Šน์ฒ 

The terrace is at the very end of the third-floor hallway.

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

yes

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Ohh.... It's pretty..

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Huh...? Is anyone here??

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

H-Hi?? You weren't sleeping..?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

(Surprise) Ah!!

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

Sorry... Were you surprised?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

It's okay!! But what are you doing here??

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

Ah... I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a bit. What about you?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

I came out too because I was bored and couldn't sleep!!

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

Ohh..!

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

(Rubbing her eyes and waking up) O... huh? Jiwoo is here?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Huh?? There was one more person..!

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

He was sleeping so deeply I thought I wasn't even there lol

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

I was too tired, so I stopped... lol

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

(Looking at KakaoTalk) Ah, I wanted to hang out together, but Myungho is calling me..

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Get out of here! Shoo shoo!!

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

..... That's too much, really too much!!

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

Hi Jiwoo..๐Ÿฅบ I'm off..

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Hahaha, let's hang out together later when I get down there!

์ด์„๋ฏผ image

์ด์„๋ฏผ

Oh, great, great!! See you later!!

Boom!

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

How did Jiwoo know to come here?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Ah, Seungcheol told me!!

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Seungcheol-nim.. lol This is awkward lol

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

I'm not really sure what to call it either... haha

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Just call me Seungcheol oppa!!

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Oppa...?

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Uh... um... then what should I call it...?

{ That is how Seungcheolโ€™s creation of nicknames began..! }

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Um... Seungcheol?

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Uncle Seungcheol?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Saying Mr. Seungcheol is an exaggeration...

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Grandpa Seungcheol...?

Seungcheol: ??????????

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Hmm... what should I really call it...?

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

I call him Seungcheol hyung...

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Oh!! That would be great!! Bro!!

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

brother??

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Calling me 'Oppa' feels a bit awkward... and 'Uncle' looks too old, so I think calling me 'Hyung' is the most comfortable!

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Oh!! That would be great!!

Seungcheol's title decided like that: "Hyung"

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Ah, but what was your name again..?

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

No... lol Is it you this time...?

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

My name is Kim Min-kyu haha

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Ah!! Mr. Mingyu!!

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Hey... I'm a student too, but Mingyu, that's a bit much...!!

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Oh, I'm sorry... Then what should I call you?

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Hmm... what could there be?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

How is it, senior?

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

senior?

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Yeah! Hyung feels a bit weird, and Oppa is a bit embarrassing... but I think you'd be the best choice, Senior?

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Um... call me whatever you're comfortable with... lol

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ

Then I'll just call you Mingyu oppa lol

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ image

๊น€๋ฏผ๊ทœ

Feeling good for some reason) Yeah!!

๊น€์ง€์šฐ image

๊น€์ง€์šฐ
