I asked, tilting my head at Soyeon’s unexpected suggestion .
“ A movie ?”
Then she innocently opened her eyes as if she had no intentions, and nodded her head .
“… There has been a movie I’ve wanted to see for a long time, and this time it came .”
Judging by the fact that they have come this time, it is probably a story about a new addition to Soyeon’s favorite platform .
I’m still getting there… . Would one movie be okay?
“ Um… . Then, shall we see each other ?”
Without any doubt, I readily accepted Soyeon’s suggestion, and we immediately prepared a light snack and laid it out in front of the TV in the living room .
“ Shall we put out the fire ?”
“… yes .”
After asking Soyeon’s permission, I got up from the sofa and turned off all the lights in the living room , and , relying on the light from the
tick –
tv , I returned to the seat next to Soyeon .
Then, after tossing a piece of popcorn placed on the table in her mouth, she glanced at the TV screen controlled by Soyeon and asked a question .
“ But, what movie is it ?”
Then Soyeon said while indifferently pressing the direction keys on the remote control .
“… Between love and parting .”
… huh ?
I was startled for a moment by the familiar title, and I slowly turned my gaze and asked carefully .
“ Between love and parting… ?”
“… Did you see it ?”
She shows a hint of nervousness somewhere along with the question, “Have you seen it ? ”
“ Oh, no, it’s not… . Where did you hear the title? .”
“… okay ?”
“ Maybe it’s because it’s an old movie… .”
I quickly turned around so that Soyeon would not be disappointed, and then looked at the TV with blurry eyes .
between love and parting .
lang syne… , It was the first movie my wife and I saw at the cinema when we weren’t dating yet .
This movie was famous for being a tragic and poignant movie that is called the modern-day Romeo and Juliet, but the memories of that day are so intense that I still remember it vividly .
But I guess Soyeon will come with this movie… .
“… .”
Now that I can no longer bite, I chewed only popcorn to hide my embarrassment ,
“… I found it .”
Soon, Soyeon found the movie and it finally started .
[ ♫~♩~♬~♪ ] The
familiar Jeonju resounds in the living room .
The lives of the two main characters briefly passed along with the legendary OST that nurtured numerous couples across the country… .
The music slowly stopped, and two people from opposite lives met .
[ Hello! It’s pretty cold today. It may snow in the evening. Did you bring an umbrella ? ]
[ … coffee ? ]
A man who is familiar with ordering coffee and talking to him affectionately, and a woman who is accustomed to taking orders as if bored .
[ The earrings I wore today are pretty. Earrings I’ve never seen before… , did you buy a new one ? ]
[ … Coffee came out . ]
The woman was happy with the words of the man who noticed the earrings she bought with a big heart, but stopped talking coldly and handed the man coffee .
[ Thank you. Also, I don’t think you brought an umbrella, so I’m going to use this . ]
Nevertheless, the man smiled and handed the coffee and left the store without hesitation without hesitation .
“… .”
A woman who hides her inner feelings and hits an iron wall and a man who goes straight ahead .
This is what I feel every time I watch this movie, no matter how I look at it, it feels like I’m watching Jooyeon-hee and me .
At first, she was a woman who didn’t even look at me like she was an invisible person… .
Who would have known that she would become a woman who could not live without a husband like she is now ?
While we were soaked in memories for a while, the movie continued… .
[ Is it worth eating ? ]
[ … all right ? ]
A woman and a man who naturally became a couple .
As if they had endured it until now, they continued to show affection and burn love day by day .
[ page… . peck… . ha… . can i do it ? ]
[ … Didn’t you try ? ]
The love between the two grows deeper and deeper .
“… .”
I was quietly watching the movie, and after feeling awkward, I crossed my arms and glanced at Soyeon in the seat next to me .
By the way… .
“!”
Soyeon was also looking at me, and when our eyes met, we hurriedly turned our eyes away and looked at the TV .
“… .”
A very awkward atmosphere .
Being conscious of Soyeon, I purposely drank a drink to evoke the atmosphere, and Soyeon was also wiggling her fingers as if conscious of me, showing some nervous gestures .
“… … .”
With such an awkward atmosphere, the movie continues… .
About halfway through, two men and women who ran into reality .
[ … I can’t marry you . ]
[ Why? Marriage is for me and you ! ]
Finally, a famous scene that has fostered numerous couples across the country has begun to appear .
[ … If only I had you… , I knew it was going to work out somehow . ]
[ Now? How are you now ? ]
[ … Now is… . ]
A woman who is frustrated by the reality that she cannot live on love alone and a man who turns her back on reality and chooses love .
The woman hesitated for a long time at the man’s question, and then shut her mouth without answering, and the man
, who had only been shown kindness throughout the film, grabbed the woman’s face roughly and forcibly met her eyes .
[ … … . ]
Two men and women exchanging glances affectionately .
And the man, who soon hardened his heart, kissed him tenderly as he always did .
[ page… peck… . Churp… . ]
A woman who embraces her lips with tears and a man who holds her tightly as if she will never let go .
A long kissing scene with a lot of emotions began .
that moment .
“… .”
Suddenly, I felt a stabbing gaze .
I turned my head involuntarily, and my eyes met Soyeon, who was staring at me .
She has a sympathetic expression .
The black hair that resembled me was shining brightly even in the dark, and the bright red
eyes that resembled my wife were radiating a deeper and heavier luster than ever before, and they were shining beautifully .
those eyes… .
The jewel-like eyes that captured my heart at first sight .
My heart pounded –
The moment I met her eyes, who had tangled the collar at will, my heart sank and began to run violently as if it had been broken .
heart-! heart-! heart-! pounding -!
Her pounding heartbeat and her eyes piercing deeply .
heart-! pounding -!
I remember the day when I fell in love .
and… .
At the same time, the alarm bells of danger began to sound .
“… !”
Belatedly realizing that it was Min So-yeon and not Joo-yeon, I hurriedly turned my gaze away from So-yeon and tried to calm my heart .
But… .
Thump- Thump- Thump – The
chest, which had already started to burn hot, blew out heat to every corner of the body and was called out ,
… no… , no… !
With my teeth biting tight, I forcibly covered the heat by gluing the memories with Soyeon .
“… … .”
the
gaze is felt The mournful gaze that clings to the body like sticky tar .
The whispers of the devil to plunge you into a swamp deeper than hell .
I desperately looked at the TV, ignoring her gaze ,
[ fuha… . I’m fine, how about you ? ]
[ … ok . ]
As the long kissing scene ended, the music started playing to indicate that the movie was coming to an end .
*
[ ♪~♫~♩~♬ ]
The OST of the movie is played along with the ending credits .
“ Shhhhh… .”
I straightened my stiff body and stood up, sipping my carbonated beverage, pretending nothing was wrong, and looking at Soyeon .
“… .”
She looks at the TV with a subtle expression somewhere .
I quietly cleared my throat, turned on the light in the living room, and uttered a hint at Soyeon .
“… How was it? ”
Then Soyeon looked at me and spoke calmly .
“… I ‘m bored .”
“ Yeah ?
“… are you ?”
“ Just, okay?”
Perhaps the atmosphere was the problem, and it was okay to make eye contact with Soyeon .
So, I vowed never to accept Soyeon’s proposal again, and finished the meeting by putting away the snacks that I barely touched .
“ Sleep well .”
“… you too .”
Kung –
Soyeon enters the room .
“… ha… .”
I exhaled the sigh I had been holding back for so long, and as I entered my room, I threw myself on the quilt I had spread out in advance . A sweet fragrance that passes
through
the tip of the nose with a sensation of being suffocating .
“… .”
Realizing that the scent was Soyeon’s body odor that was soaked in the blanket, I rolled around and laid myself down on the hard floor .
“… ha… .”
Subtle cold air rising from the floor .
Nevertheless, as I stared at the black ceiling, thinking that it was better than my own room, a wave of self-doubt that I had been immersed in for a while began to come .
“… uh… . crazy kid… .”
As I patted my forehead in frustration, I thought as I rolled around on the floor .
How can Soyeon make my heart flutter ?
No matter how much Soyeon resembles her wife, it doesn’t make sense for her to be as crazy as the day she fell in love at first sight .
I’m glad I barely woke up, but what if I had made a little more mistake there ?
I really hate to even imagine .
“ Ha… .”
I cannot see Soyeon as a woman .
It had to be , and it had to be .
However… .
From now on, once in a while, Soyeon appears to be a single woman .
It’s crazy to say, but my body and my mind perceive it as such .
What’s the matter… .
Is Yoo Ji-hwan’s body a problem ?
okay… . It is said that when an organ is transplanted, personality and constitution change in some cases .
Could it be that I am the same case ?
I’ve been attached to this body for so long that I’m really turning into Yoo Ji-hwan instead of Min Sung-jae ?
Then, if I give up being Min Sung-jae and become Yoo Ji-hwan, can I see So-yeon as a woman ?
… It is all nonsense .
“… ha… .”
How long had it been since I was lying on the floor, talking nonsense with such a frustrated heart ?
Huh…
“… huh ?”
ha… !
Suddenly, a strange noise was heard from somewhere .
