116 – The whole world is a couple
We returned home together.
There wasn’t much conversation during the trip. Maybe it’s because we both know that now all that’s left is to walk together, with actions rather than words.
“Yuna, you’ve worked hard…!”
“Ugh, Auntie, I can’t breathe….”
“Well, thank you for your hard work.”
As soon as we arrived, the adults from both families who had gathered at our house came out to the front door to welcome Yuna.
In particular, our lady, who is known for being very tenderhearted, hugged Yuna with tears in her eyes, and her father nodded with his characteristically blunt expression while patting Yuna on the back. It was a sight that anyone who saw her would think she was the daughter of this family.

“Siyoon, you’ve had a hard time too. Please take good care of our daughter from now on.”
Meanwhile, on this side, the lady was patting my shoulder. It was a scene that seemed like our parents had switched places, but it was also a familiar scene to us.
“Don’t worry, ma’am.”
“I think it’s time to start calling you mother-in-law….”
“… Please take a look at that.”
In the meantime, I shook hands with an old lady who was mumbling in a voice full of regret as she passed by.
It’s not that I won’t marry Yuna, but it felt awkward for a 19-year-old high school boy who wasn’t even an adult yet to suddenly call the woman next door, with whom he was comfortable, “mother-in-law.”
“Yes, if that’s what our son-in-law is like, then that’s what we should do.”
Fortunately, I was able to get a reprieve thanks to my mother’s backing down.
By the way, is it confirmed that I’m your son-in-law now? I’m grateful that you think so.
“Sister, do you know that? There are a lot of your videos going around on Inbyeol and YouTube right now?”
When Mom’s tears subsided and they all sat down in the living room, Han Yu-jin started to pat Yu-na’s arm frivolously and start making a fuss.
The screen shown on the phone had YouTube videos, most of which were about Yuna. Judging from the fact that most of them were from 1 hour ago, 48 minutes ago, it seems that after the press conference, so-called cyber wreckers and various YouTubers produced and uploaded videos.
“What? What, what video?”
“Well, it was you who confessed to me at the end, right? You really created a dark history.”
As Han Yu-jin, who had been giggling continuously, started a video, the declaration of war that Yuna had shouted at me at the end of the press conference while swinging her sword at me flowed out as it was.
Oh man, my face is burning even though I didn’t do anything.
“Huh, it’s not a dark history! It was a cool confession in my own way!”
Well, that was a great confession. Well, it was a great confession in its own way, given the circumstances. The problem is that, looking back, it seems like the person involved is losing his or her hands and feet.
At least I was the one who received the comment, so the damage was less, but I wonder how much pain Yuna must be in right now for saying such a comment at an official event. Why are you buying it and creating a dark history, you girlfriend?
“My aunt thinks she looks cool because she’s a womanizer. But it’s such a waste for our worthless son.”
“Mother, no matter what, my only son is listening….”
Meanwhile, our mother was protecting Yuna, who was rolling around on the sofa with her face covered, and she was hurting her poor son.
It’s cowardly to fight with facts, Mother. At times like this, shouldn’t we confidently fight through incitement and fabrication?
“Hey, what’s so regrettable about that? Compared to Yuna, Siyoon is even more of a waste.”
“That’s right, where in the world can you find a guy like Siyoon?”
Fortunately, there is no law that says you have to fight alone, and thanks to Yuna’s aunt and uncle taking my side, I was able to restore my self-esteem, which had fallen to rock bottom.
Oh, thank you. Father-in-law, mother-in-law. When I get married, I will do my best as a son-in-law. Please watch over me.
“Honey, the kids must be hungry after coming home from work. How about serving them food first?”
While we were sitting around the sofa talking about this incident, my dad checked the clock on the wall and said something.
It was still a little early for dinner, but since the timing was right, I guess he brought up the idea of having a meal while we were all gathered together. In time with that, my stomach also started growling and my belly clock started ringing.
I’m definitely feeling very hungry all of a sudden, maybe because the tension has disappeared.
“Okay, let’s talk while we eat first. Are you hungry too, Yuna?”
“Yes, Auntie! I’m so hungry!”
As the belly clock rang in my stomach and Yuna’s energetic answer made the living room briefly feel warm, my mother smiled and got up from her seat.
“I’ll help you too. What do you want me to make?”
“I made some bulgogi this morning, so let’s use that. The kids all like it.”
“Bulgogi? Good.”
The woman who got up after her also headed to the kitchen to help her mother.
Soon after, the finished dishes were brought one by one onto the large dining table in the living room, and we were finally able to fully enjoy the feeling of having overcome a big mountain and slurp down our meals as if we were the winners.
Aside from the taste of the food, I think it was a truly wonderful dinner for me.
***
After dinner, we rolled around in bed, and then, at Yuna’s request, we went outside together. We had no destination in mind, and the main reason was that we just wanted to enjoy the night air.
“Hehehe, look at this. Isn’t it so loose?”
As we came out, Yuna smiled innocently, fluttering the cardigan I was wearing over my clothes.
Since it’s fall and the daily temperature difference is large, I told Yuna to put on a thin coat and go out, but she immediately opened the closet and took out my cardigan, which created the current situation.
When I asked if it was too big and uncomfortable, he said, “I like this.” It was hard to understand what he was feeling, but since Yuna liked it, I decided to leave it alone.
“By the way, is what you said earlier true?”
“… What kind?”
As we were heading to a cafe with the idea of grabbing a warm cup of coffee in this chilly weather, Yuna pressed her body against my arm and asked.
I almost lost consciousness for a moment due to a strange sensation on my arm, which delayed my answer, but fortunately I was able to respond without much awkwardness.
Now I don’t have to be afraid to go outside. Thanks to that, I feel like I’m dying.
“I heard that Soobin said she would confess to Minseong Choi.”
“That’s what he said. I guess he gained some courage thanks to you.”
While responding to Yuna’s words indifferently, on the other hand, I suddenly became curious about Kim Soo-bin’s love life.
What would he be doing now? Did he confess well? He said he would contact me if things went well, but since there has been no news yet, did he really meet a sad ending? Various speculations are running through my head.
“Should I contact you?”
When I suggested this while quietly taking my phone out of my pocket, Yuna nodded as if she had been waiting.
“Okay, let’s do that. I’m so curious I can’t stand it.”
“Instead, if Kim Soo-bin is crying, you comfort her. It’s hard for me to comfort other women besides you…”
The moment I said something that seemed to assume that she had already been dumped, I thought, “Oh no, I thought Yuna was going to say something like, ‘No bad words.’
But somehow, she looked up at me with her eyes wide open with an expression as if she had been hit with a bullet, so I stared at Yuna too. We exchanged glances like that for a few seconds, and soon a smile of joy appeared on Yuna’s lips.
“What, where did you learn such wonderful words? Park Si-yoon, do you want a kiss today?”
“Uh… Was there anything special about it?”
“Of course. You find other women awkward besides me? That’s special, really special.”
side.
I was kissed on the cheek by Yuna, who seemed very satisfied, without even knowing English, and I just tilted my head like an idiot. At times like this, I realized that there was still a lot I didn’t know about Yuna.
Anyway, just like Yuna had hoped, she quickly looked for Kim Soo-bin’s contact number and was about to press the call button.
【Kim Soo-bin】
“… … !?”
“Huh? They called first?”
Suddenly, I was surprised by the phone call from Kim Soo-bin and almost dropped the phone. Meanwhile, Yuna was telling me to hurry up and answer the phone.
But wait, this is a video call? Why is Kim Soo-bin video calling me?
“hello?”
As I was becoming more and more confused, I thought I should just answer the phone to find out the inside story, so I pressed the call button and showed my face on the screen. Then, a familiar face appeared on the other end.
It was Kim Soo-bin who seemed to be in someone else’s room. Well, even if it was someone’s room, it would be somewhere in his house.
– You were together after all? I knew it, so I made a video call!
Kim Soo-bin, with a proud expression, revealed that his goal from the beginning was to see Yuna’s face. At that moment, Yuna suddenly thrust her face in front of me as if she had been waiting for it.
“Subin! Can you see my face clearly?”
– Yeah, I can see it well thanks to the streetlight! How was the press conference today, Yuna?
“The story went well. It seemed like most of the fans understood.”
– Really? That’s fortunate!
Kim Soo-bin clapped his hands in joy at the long-awaited good news as if it were his own. He must have been quite anxious as well.
While we were talking about the press conference for a while, I gently poked her arm, and only then did Yuna realize what I was trying to say and opened her mouth with an anxious look in her eyes.
“By the way, Soobin, are you talking to Choi Minseong…?”
– Oh, did you hear from Siyoon that I decided to confess?
“Uh, yeah. Did it go well?”
– Yeah, well?
Well, what is it? If it’s tea, then it’s tea, and if it’s not, then it’s not.
Kim Soo-bin, who had been beating around the bush with his answer as if he was looking at the liver, suddenly turned the camera to somewhere in the room instead of himself. Why are you suddenly showing the room?
– How is this, does this explain it?
“…uh?”
Unlike me, who was looking at her with indifferent eyes, Yuna watched the scene and her eyes widened as if she realized something.
“what’s the matter?”
“Soo, this isn’t Soobin’s room.”
“Then isn’t it someone else’s room?”
There were a few possibilities, like my parents’ bedroom or my younger sibling’s room. I asked around, but Yuna shook her head firmly.
Then which room is it? As I was rewinding my memory to find a clue to the question that suddenly occurred to me, I felt a spark fly in my head.
Wait a minute, now that I think about it, didn’t she say she was ‘going’ to confess to Choi Min-seong? At first, I thought she was going to call him to a cafe or something and confess, but looking at this situation, maybe… .
– Looks like you’re starting to get the hang of it? Okay, let’s announce the answer!
As if to stop my guess, Kim Soo-bin appeared on the screen again and flashed something with a playful expression on his face.
What was there was none other than a pair of hands interlocking fingers. One was very large, and the other was very small. The smaller hand was probably Kim Soo-bin’s.
What this means is that the owner of the other hand is narrowed down to one person.
– Ta-da, today is the first day!
– … … .
The two-shot that appeared on the screen immediately afterwards was truly a contrast.
The one smiling innocently while showing off his V sign is Kim Soo-bin.
And while showing off his clenched fists, Choi Min-seong is trying his best not to look at the camera.
“and!”
The moment she saw that, Yuna let out a single exclamation and her mouth was shut. It wasn’t much different for me.
Kim Soo-bin really succeeded at this? I can’t believe it.
– Okay, boyfriend. Quickly introduce yourself and tell me who your boyfriend is.
– No, why are you making me do this?
– Today is our first day, but you can’t even do this? Hurry up, hurry up.
– Oh my… .
Even while watching, I wonder if this is real. Kim Soo-bin clinging to Choi Min-seong and acting cute, and Choi Min-seong reluctantly introducing himself with half-dead eyes, saying, “Soo-bin is my boyfriend.”
By the way, it is also surprising that the title is ‘Subin’ and not ‘Kim Subin’. Is this really reality?
– Since my boyfriend is so embarrassed, I’ll tell you the detailed story in the group chat! Bye then!
Kim Soo-bin ended the video call with a greeting and quickly ended it, leaving us with only confusion and a thrilled feeling.
We just stared at each other and blinked, feeling as if some kind of storm had come and gone.
This is the real deal.
