[rru-na]

Hey there! I decided to start writing sometimes cuz it seems fun:3 I hope you all will have fun reading my posts! Sorry for mistakes if i made any!

This is an Xlov reaction kinda post, with the title:

How would they hug you!

Its gender neutral reader x xlov as much as i could make it g/n!

Wumuti!

He was a little shy at the start but if you saw him hugging haru, you’d realise that you’d be in for the same clinginess in no time. He loves holding you close to his chest and putting his chin on the top of your head. If he is a bit moody and sad he would bend down a bit and hide his face in your neck so he can calm down and ease the pain he feels.

You heard the front door slam open, and a pouty Wumuti walked into the living room where you sat watching your favourite show. "Hm? What's wrong Muti? Are you okay?" you asked him while patting the space next to you. "Just tired. I couldn't do an important dance part no matter how hard i tried. I took me out too badly i fear." he said while he sat down to your right. You opened your arms to offer him a warm hug, andhe immediately snuggles into your neck, holding your waist as he did so. "Are you feeling better already?" you asked, patting his head and twirling his slightly longer hair around your fingers. "A lot better." he answered smiling into your neck.

Rui!

He’s the type of person that needs more time to get comfortable with other people, including you. He would be distant with physical touch, but it doesn't mean he doesn't love you. He would yap to you like his life depended on it everyday and smile whenever you talk about things you are interested in. After a while he would collect all the bravery in him and go fo that deserved hug.

Rui waited for you to finish the dishes. Rui sulked as he waited for you to finish the dishes. he wasn’t sat here by choice, you’d told him to sit so he didn’t tire himself out anymore than he already had despite his efforts to help. He waited for you patiently so you can go and talk about your day. He thought you were in the kitchen for too long so he went back. "N/N when will you finish the dishes? You’ve been doing them for so long now!" he whines with the roundest puppy eyes. "A moment Rui, have some patience will you?" You gave him a soft smile as you assured him that you won’t take too much longer. He got a thought, while you didn't look at him he snuck up to you and hugged your waist from behind, making you jump a little because he’d never done this before. you turn quickly to face his direction. "Rui. What are you doing?" you asked while he carefully placed his chin on your shoulder. "Attention." he said and urged you to be fast about the dishes.

Hyun!

Hyun is very shy but very expressive. If he wants hugs, he’ll get them no matter how shy he felt. He loves yapping and cuddling when he gets comfy and and after making sure you were comfortable with it too. You have to remember that he is really loud so feel free to tell him to lower his volume, he will understand it.

"Look what i got from the store today!" He almost jumped at you when he shoved the door open so fast it was like it got broken down. "Woah woah! Okay If you show it this close im not gonna see it too well Hyunnie." you said while pushing the cat keychain he almost showed into your face "Oh! Sorry I didn't mean that" he pulled it away a bit then placed it on your hands. "Do you like it though? It reminded me of you! Its cute like you are" he said "Of course i do! Thank you for thinking about me!" you smiled at him, then he suddenly jumped into your arms and hugged you tightly. "Of course! I will always think about you!"

Haru!

Haru is an adorable soul. He would shower you with hugs because he loves physical touch. He doesn't get shy about it, if he wants to do it he will. Hugs are something he gives for no reason in particular or he’d say "just because i love you!!" with a huge, adorable smile that always lit up whatever room he was in.

"Haruu! Im back!" you said, excited to see your boy. You missed him all day, school/work was awful today. Everybody pissed you off and all you wanted was to just go home and cuddle against Haru. He jumped up from the couch where he played on his phone to greet you. Running towards you and jumping into your arms. "N/N! I missed you soo much! Guess what! Today me and Wumuti went to the plushie store and i saw an adorable fox plushie! I noticed that your writing style is very dry so i assumed you were having a bad day. I bought the plushie for you! So when im not here you can still think aboutbme! he said while patting your back. "Haru.. you didn't have to, but thank you so much! I love you. Anyway that plushie will make me cry when you won’t be here. Nothing can replace the real Haru you know." you said looking at him."Noo you cant cry it doesn't suit you! I like your smile better!."

Thats all for today! Thank you for reading!

• Rui x Reader | Wc: 1K+ | Fluff, Spicy | NC-17 ༻

༺ Masterlist

The city outside was buzzing with its usual energy, but inside your apartment, everything felt quiet—almost too quiet. You could hear the occasional car honking in the distance, but it was muffled by the walls of your space. Rui, your boyfriend, was sprawled on the couch next to you, his body tensed, jaw clenched as he flicked through his phone with an almost irritated expression.

“Long day?” you asked, glancing over at him, your voice light, though you could tell he was holding something back.

He sighed heavily, finally looking up from his phone, meeting your gaze. “Yeah. A lot of work stuff.” He threw the phone on the coffee table with a huff and rubbed the back of his neck. “Just… tired.”

You nodded, giving him a small smile. “You know you can relax when you��re here, right?”

Rui’s eyes softened, his lips curling into a smirk as he turned his head to face you fully. “I know,” he said, his voice low and teasing. “But sometimes, I need a little… extra motivation to unwind.”

Your heartbeat quickened. You knew exactly what he meant. It wasn’t like Rui to be shy about these things, but tonight, there was something different in the air. The usual playful banter between you two was laced with tension, and it was driving you crazy.

“Extra motivation?” you repeated, sitting up a little straighter, leaning in just a bit. “What kind of motivation do you need?”

He leaned forward, his gaze intense as he closed the gap between you two. “I think you know exactly what I need,” he murmured, his lips brushing against your ear as he moved even closer. “I need you.”

The words sent a shiver down your spine. You had been together for a while, but even now, Rui still managed to surprise you with how he could make your heart race in ways that no one else could. His touch, his presence—it always left you craving more.

You let out a soft laugh, trying to hold back the flush that was creeping up your neck. “You’re not exactly being subtle, you know.”

He chuckled, his hand coming to rest on your leg, his fingers tracing lazy patterns along your skin. “Why should I be subtle? You know I don’t like to play games with you.” His tone was confident, but there was a slight edge to it, something that told you he was just as eager as you were.

You shifted closer to him, your breath catching in your throat. “Yeah? Well, if you think I’m just gonna let you have me that easily…” You trailed off, your lips curling into a playful smirk of your own as you placed your hand on his chest, feeling his heartbeat under your palm. “You might be wrong.”

Rui’s eyes darkened, his hand moving up to cup your jaw, gently guiding you closer until your lips were almost touching. “I don’t mind making you beg for it,” he whispered, his breath hot against your skin.

Your heart skipped a beat at his words, and the tension between you two reached a boiling point. You could feel the heat radiating from his body, his presence consuming you as he closed the distance.

“Rui…” you whispered, your voice barely audible. But that was all it took.

With a low growl, he crushed his lips to yours, his hands grabbing you firmly, pulling you into his lap. You gasped at the sudden movement, your legs instinctively wrapping around his waist as you kissed him back, deep and hungry.

“Fuck,” Rui muttered against your lips, his hands moving to your waist, sliding up under your shirt, fingers grazing your skin. “I’ve been waiting for this all day.”

You barely had time to respond before his hands were pulling at the hem of your shirt, tossing it aside with urgency. His lips moved down your neck, leaving a trail of heat in their wake.

“God, you’re so fucking beautiful,” he growled, his voice thick with desire. “I can’t get enough of you.”

Your body reacted instinctively, every touch of his sending jolts of pleasure through you. His hands moved expertly, like he knew exactly how to make you lose yourself in him, and you could feel the tension building, that familiar fire sparking between you two.

You weren’t sure how long it lasted, time slipping away as your bodies moved in perfect sync. All you could focus on was Rui, the way he made you feel—desired, cherished, loved. The world outside didn’t matter. It was just the two of you, and nothing else could compete with that.

When you finally collapsed together, breathless and tangled in the sheets, Rui pulled you close, his lips brushing against your forehead. “I needed that,” he murmured, his voice soft but satisfied.

You smiled, feeling the warmth of his embrace. “Yeah, me too.”

And as you drifted off into a peaceful sleep, the world outside felt a million miles away. The only thing that mattered was Rui, and the quiet, intimate moments you shared in the safety of your own space.

Breaking Binary: Re-imagining "I'mma Be" Through Color Theory and Visual Metaphor

In the intersection of music video aesthetics and symbolic storytelling lies an intriguing concept: reimagining "I'mma Be" through a deliberate evolution of color, merging period aesthetics with deeper metaphorical meanings.

Or basically: What if I highlight the black/white chess-aspect of the mv further.

My reinterpretation draws inspiration from the haunting atmosphere of psychological horror games like Fran Bow and using color transitions to tell a story about breaking free from binary thinking.

The Power of Black and White

The black-and-white palette in my reimagined video serves dual purposes. First, it captures the 1920s aesthetic, transporting viewers to an era of silent films and art deco glamour. But beneath this nostalgic surface lies something more unsettling. The monochrome creates an uncanny valley effect – a world that's familiar yet distinctly “off.”

This choice isn’t just aesthetic. Black and white represent the ultimate binary: a stark world of absolute contrasts with no middle ground. It’s a visual metaphor for rigid thinking, societal constraints, and the false dichotomies we often find ourselves trapped in.

The Evolution of Color

The true magic happens in the transition from this binary world to full color. Each stage of the progression reflects growth and transformation:

Monochromatic Beginning: Pure black and white establish a stark, confined reality.

Sepia Awakening: Desaturated, sepia tones begin to bridge the gap between eras.

Color Bleeding: Hints of color seep into the edges, like reality itself is starting to crack.

Chromatic Explosion: At emotional peaks, color bursts forth in psychedelic vibrancy, shattering limitations.

These transitions aren’t random – in the original MV as well – but are timed to amplify the music’s emotional highs and lows. When the full spectrum of color finally emerges, it’s a triumph over the earlier restraint.

Beyond Binary Thinking

This color progression is more than a visual flourish; it’s a metaphor for personal and societal transformation. The journey from black and white to vibrant color symbolizes breaking free from rigid binaries, such as:

Right vs. Wrong

Us vs. Them

Traditional vs. Modern

Conformity vs. Rebellion

By embracing the full spectrum of color, the video celebrates complexity and nuance, showing the beauty in the "in-between." Each hue represents new possibilities and ways of seeing the world.

The Horror Element

The horror undertones add a layer of depth to this transformation. Horror often explores the breakdown of reality and the emergence of hidden truths. Here, the unease of the black-and-white world doesn’t disappear with the addition of color – it transforms into something more complex and thought-provoking.

The vintage aesthetic, combined with modern color grading, creates a temporal dissonance that keeps viewers slightly off-balance, much like the best psychological horror does. Breaking free from binary thinking isn’t always comfortable, but it’s ultimately liberating.

Just an addition: This is simply a fun way to reinterpret the visuals of the music video and share my thoughts! It’s not meant to criticize the MV at all – I absolutely love it. (Also… don’t ask how long I worked on this edit/recolor + interpretation. It took way too long, haha. Furthermore, please excuse any grammar or linguistic mistakes, English is not my first language )

Please support Xlov's music video as well ♥️

Here’s a playlist of my favorite K-pop songs that I listen to frequently

[odd-eye-society]

A compilation of pre-debut Haru dancing.

This Russian speaking OP does the majority of fanmade promotional content on TikTok for the group, it seems.

My main group joined TikTok late, and it's hard to tell whether the site helps them gain fans, or not. SM still hasn't figured out how to work with TT, thereforem how viral will reels become mostly depends on idols themselves (and sometimes their managers who notice and offer trends/challenges to participate in, I guess).

XLOV does a good job of TT though. As the view numbers show. They go outside and film at a location, think at what angle it's better to shoot the choreo, choose latest viral things wisely. It's the first group I see (not that it says anything, I normally observe big4 groups) that can't go on YT/TV variety and talk shows, but manages to gain attention and without them.

I know low-tier popularity groups go on small personal k-pop YT-channels as their last resort to advertise themselves. It doesn't seem to help very much though.

XLOV are great at covers, however, they need to have their own music that will become popular. A lot depends on their upcoming titles. So far the group successfully re-imagines the songs they cover (remake choreos for 4, and invent new and memorable formations; use non-vocal line well, building their experience), which gives me hope. After dicsovering that XLOV has ties to E:NK World I worry less about them. That school-turned agency has some veterans in the industry (choreographers, vocal teachers, image makers) they can ask for help.

Spring Fever 🌼

• Haru x Reader | Wc: 1K+ | Fluff, slowburn | PG-13 ༻

༺ Masterlist

The warmth of spring had just begun to creep into the air, soft and inviting, like a gentle reminder that the cold was finally behind you. The flowers had started to bloom, their colors vibrant against the lush green backdrop of the park you and Haru frequented. It was your place, the one spot you’d always come back to, whether for a quiet afternoon or to catch up with friends. But lately, it had started to feel different, as though the air around you hummed with an energy that wasn’t there before.

Haru had been acting strange.

It wasn’t anything obvious, but it was there, in the way he’d look at you when you weren’t paying attention, or how his hand lingered just a second too long when he passed you something. You didn’t think much of it at first; Haru was always the affectionate type. He was your best friend, the boy who had been there through thick and thin, laughing and joking with you about everything and nothing at all. But lately, there was something different about the way he smiled, the way he’d catch your eye a little too often. Something deeper.

Today, he was sitting beside you on the park bench, the late afternoon sun casting a warm glow across his face. He wore a soft, oversized hoodie that hung off his shoulders, the sleeves rolled up slightly as he absentmindedly twisted a blade of grass between his fingers.

“You’ve been quiet today,” you observed, nudging him with your elbow. “What’s up with you?”

Haru looked up at you, startled, as though he hadn’t realized how long he’d been lost in thought. He flashed you a sheepish smile, one that made your heart flutter in an unfamiliar way.

“Oh, nothing,” he said quickly, looking away. “Just… thinking.”

You tilted your head, curious. “Thinking about what?”

He shrugged, keeping his gaze a little too focused on the ground. “Just stuff,” he mumbled. “Nothing important.”

You raised an eyebrow, not entirely convinced, but you let it slide. Haru wasn’t one to share his thoughts easily, and when he did, it was usually wrapped in layers of awkwardness. You smiled to yourself, thinking that maybe he was just going through one of those phases where he overthought everything. It wasn’t like he hadn’t done that before.

You continued to chat casually, the conversation drifting from one topic to the next. But as the minutes ticked by, you couldn’t shake the feeling that something was different. Haru was quieter than usual, his usual playfulness replaced with a sort of hesitant gentleness. His laughter, which was usually loud and carefree, seemed more subdued today.

As the conversation lulled, you glanced over at him again. His eyes were fixed on you, not in the way a friend would look at another, but with a softness that made your stomach twist in a way you couldn’t quite explain.

“Haru,” you started, your voice a little softer than usual, “what’s really going on with you?”

He blinked, startled, as though he hadn’t expected you to ask directly. He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out at first. He looked at his hands for a moment, his fingers twitching nervously.

“Y/N, I… I don’t know how to say this,” he began, his voice barely above a whisper. “But I think I’ve been… feeling something more. Something different. And I don’t know if it’s just me… or if you feel it too.”

You blinked, your mind racing to keep up with his sudden admission. His gaze was intense, his usual boyish charm replaced with something deeper—something vulnerable. It was like he was exposing a side of himself that he kept hidden away, and it made your heart race a little faster.

“What do you mean by that?” you asked, your voice unsure, suddenly feeling like you were in uncharted territory.

Haru hesitated, his gaze shifting to the side as if he was trying to gather his thoughts. “I… I’ve been in love with you for a while now,” he finally admitted, his voice thick with emotion. “I don’t know when it started, but I’ve been too scared to tell you. I’ve been your friend for so long, and I didn’t want to ruin that. But… I can’t keep pretending that I don’t feel this way.”

The words hung in the air between you like a thick fog, and for a moment, time seemed to slow down. You blinked, trying to process what he had just said. Haru—your best friend—had feelings for you. And not just any feelings. He was in love with you.

Your heart raced, but you didn’t know what to say. You hadn’t seen this coming, hadn’t realized that the way Haru acted around you had meant anything more than friendship. Sure, he was sweet and protective, always there for you when you needed him. But to hear him say those words… it was like a dream you didn’t know you were having.

“Haru…” you started, but your words caught in your throat. You didn’t want to hurt him, didn’t want to crush him under the weight of something he’d obviously carried for so long. But you also didn’t know if you could return those feelings.

Haru looked at you, his eyes wide with uncertainty, as if he was bracing himself for whatever you were about to say. His fingers were clenched tightly around the hem of his hoodie, the fabric bunching in his grip as though he was holding on for dear life.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered, his voice laced with regret. “I shouldn’t have said anything. I just… I couldn’t keep it inside anymore.”

Before you could respond, he stood up quickly, his back to you as he shoved his hands into his pockets. “I should go,” he muttered, his voice thick. “I don’t want to make things weird. I just… needed you to know.”

You stood up, your legs trembling as you reached out for him. “Haru, wait.”

He paused, but didn’t turn around. You could feel the distance between you growing with every second that passed, and it felt like the spring air had suddenly turned cold.

“I don’t know what to say,” you confessed, your voice barely above a whisper. “But you don’t have to leave.”

Haru turned around, his eyes glassy. “I don’t want to make things awkward for you.”

“You won’t,” you said, your voice firm. “You’re my best friend. And that’s not going to change.”

His eyes softened as he took a step toward you. “You’re sure?”

You nodded, smiling gently at him. “Yeah, I’m sure.”

Haru’s lips curved into a small smile, one that didn’t quite reach his eyes, but it was enough to make your heart flutter. “I’m sorry for… all of this,” he said softly. “I just couldn’t keep pretending.”

“You don’t have to apologize,” you reassured him. “But just so you know… I think I’ve always known.”

His brow furrowed in confusion. “Known what?”

“That you liked me,” you said with a playful smirk. “It’s kinda hard to miss, Haru.”

His eyes widened as a deep blush spread across his cheeks. “You knew?” he stammered, looking mortified.

You nodded, laughing softly. “Yeah, but I didn’t want to say anything either. I didn’t want to ruin our friendship.”

Haru stared at you for a long moment, his face a mix of shock and relief. “So… what now?” he asked, his voice barely audible.

You stepped closer to him, your hand reaching out to gently touch his arm. “Now, we take it one step at a time.”

And for the first time in a long while, you both stood there, just two people caught in the delicate warmth of spring, unsure of where things would go next, but knowing that you would figure it out together.

Bowling 🎳

• Wumuti x Reader | Wc: 1K+ | Fluff | PG-13 ༻

༺ Masterlist

The evening sky was painted in hues of deep purple and navy, the city lights twinkling like stars beneath the sprawling darkness. You’d been looking forward to tonight all week—after all, it wasn’t every day you got the chance to spend time with someone as effortlessly captivating as Wumuti.

You arrived at the bowling alley a little earlier than planned, pacing the lobby nervously, the sound of pins clattering in the distance filling the air. The neon lights buzzed above you, casting a playful glow over the lanes. You couldn’t help but smile as you watched a couple of kids eagerly waiting for their turn, trying to hold the heavy bowling balls with all their might.

A few moments later, Wumuti strolled in, his tall frame impossible to miss. His eyes lit up when he saw you, his lips curling into that familiar, easy grin. He was dressed casually, a hoodie and jeans that fit him perfectly, giving him an effortlessly cool aura that still made your heart race every time you saw him.

“Hey, you’re here early,” he said with a soft chuckle, his voice warm and comforting as he approached. He slung an arm around your shoulder and pulled you in for a brief side hug. “You look nice.”

“Thanks,” you responded, smiling up at him. “I couldn’t wait. Bowling’s always been fun, but I’m sure with you, it’ll be even better.”

Wumuti raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise. “Oh? You think I’ll make this interesting, huh?” he teased, his voice light, though there was a playful glint in his eyes.

“Definitely,” you replied with a smirk. “Besides, you’ve got that competitive edge, right? I’m expecting nothing less than a fierce competition.���

Wumuti laughed softly, and the sound was like a melody to your ears. “We’ll see about that. But just so you know, I don’t go easy on anyone,” he said, holding up his hands dramatically. “I’ll show you how it’s done.”

You both made your way over to a lane, picking out your bowling shoes and getting ready for the match. As he slid the shoes onto his feet, you caught a glimpse of his concentration—something about the way he focused on the simplest of tasks was oddly captivating. Even something as casual as bowling seemed to take on an air of elegance when he was around.

The first round started, and as expected, Wumuti was a natural. He picked up the ball with ease, his broad shoulders moving gracefully as he lined up his shot. With a smooth swing, the ball hurtled down the lane, knocking down all ten pins in one clean strike.

“Guess that’s one for me,” he said with a grin, turning back to you.

“Impressive,” you said, your eyes twinkling with amusement. “But don’t get too cocky just yet.”

You stepped up, ready to make your mark. The lane felt different with Wumuti by your side—there was an easy comfort to the way you interacted, like you’d known each other forever. Your ball hit the pins with a satisfying crash, leaving only a few standing.

“Nice try,” he said, leaning against the edge of the lane. “You’ll get them next time.”

The game continued in this manner, with a mix of playful banter, friendly competition, and the occasional cheer from both sides. Wumuti’s laid-back nature made everything feel effortless, but there was no denying the spark between the two of you. His occasional teasing only made you more determined to give him a run for his money. The two of you shared laughs, even during your less-than-perfect throws, and the chemistry was undeniable.

When it was your turn again, you threw the ball a little too hard, sending it veering off to the side. Wumuti raised an eyebrow, watching it roll off course.

“You sure you’re trying?” he joked, his voice filled with mock concern.

“Oh, I’m definitely trying,” you shot back, sticking your tongue out playfully at him. “Just saving my best shot for the end.”

“You’re gonna need it,” he replied, crossing his arms and watching you with a smile that made your heart flutter.

Eventually, you reached the final round, and you were both neck-and-neck in points. Wumuti had kept his cool the entire time, but now, there was a tension in the air—neither of you wanted to back down.

“Ready?” he asked, turning to face you. There was a spark of excitement in his eyes, and something about the way he looked at you in this moment made your stomach flip. You took a deep breath, steeling yourself for the final throw.

“Ready,” you responded, giving him a determined smile. You walked to your mark, eyes fixed on the pins. As you took the ball in your hands, you felt a rush of confidence. The sound of the ball hitting the lane was followed by the steady roll as it made its way toward the pins. It hit with a satisfying crash, and when the noise died down, you were left staring at the scoreboard.

“Looks like I win,” you said with a triumphant smile.

Wumuti stood there for a moment, eyes still on the screen. But before you could savor the victory, he turned to you with a grin.

“You know,” he said, “I didn’t say I was done with this just yet.” He reached out, pulling you toward him by the waist and dipping you slightly—an unexpected move that caught you off guard. His lips were inches away from yours, his breath warm against your skin. “Let’s just say, I know how to win in other ways too.”

Before you could respond, his lips pressed against yours, soft but full of meaning. The kiss was slow, deliberate, and filled with the promise of something more.

When you pulled away, your breath mingling with his, Wumuti grinned. “I guess we both won tonight.”

You couldn’t help but smile back. “Yeah. I guess we did.”

As the night wore on, you and Wumuti stayed at the bowling alley, enjoying each other’s company long after the game was over. You didn’t need to win anymore—because in this moment, it was clear that you were both on the same team.

And that was more than enough.

Office Romance 📈

• Hyun x Reader | Wc: 1K+ | Fluff | PG-13 ༻

༺ Masterlist

Hyun’s presence in the office was quiet but undeniably soothing. Every day, you found yourself gravitating toward him, not just because he was a good coworker, but because he had a way of making even the most mundane tasks feel manageable. His calm demeanor, his soft smile, the way he would hum quietly to himself when absorbed in his work—it all made the hectic office environment seem less overwhelming.

As the HR coordinator, you had plenty of tasks to juggle—meetings, managing employee files, keeping track of performance reviews, and more. But every time you crossed paths with Hyun, whether it was in the break room or walking past his desk, there was a subtle sense of relief. It wasn’t just that he was easy to talk to or that he always knew how to handle stressful situations. There was something more—something unspoken that made your heart flutter when he smiled at you or asked about your day.

“Hey, Y/N, do you need a hand with anything?” Hyun’s voice broke through your thoughts as he stood beside your desk, his gentle eyes full of concern. You hadn’t realized you’d been staring at your computer screen for the past few minutes without actually doing anything.

You shook your head and gave him a small smile, trying to mask the way his presence made your heart race. “No, I’m good. Just organizing a few things.”

He raised an eyebrow, clearly unconvinced. “You sure? You’ve been at that file for a while now.”

You couldn’t help but laugh softly, shaking your head. “I’m just…thinking about the best way to phrase something for the next meeting.”

Hyun nodded, his eyes glimmering with understanding. He wasn’t the type to push when someone needed space, but he always knew when to offer a little encouragement. “Well, if you need a second opinion, you know where to find me.”

Your gaze briefly met his, and you felt that familiar, unexplainable tension in the air. Hyun was always considerate, but lately, it felt like there was something more beneath the surface. A glance that lingered too long, a smile that seemed to hold a hidden meaning. You weren’t sure if it was just your imagination or if he really did feel the same way.

The rest of the afternoon passed in a blur of emails and phone calls, but you found yourself looking forward to the small interactions with Hyun. When the clock finally hit 5:00 PM, you gathered your things, ready to head home. But as you walked toward the elevator, you saw Hyun standing near the doors, his jacket over one arm, as if waiting for something—or someone.

“Heading out already?” You asked, trying to sound casual, but the nerves bubbling up inside you were hard to ignore.

Hyun turned to face you, offering a warm smile. “Yeah, just about. You?”

You nodded, feeling the weight of the question before you answered. “I was thinking of grabbing a coffee. Want to join me?”

His eyes widened slightly, as if he hadn’t expected the invitation, but the hesitation quickly melted away. “I’d like that. I could use a break.”

As you both stepped out of the office building and into the crisp evening air, the tension between you felt more palpable than ever. You weren’t sure if it was the way Hyun’s hand brushed against yours when you both reached for the door, or the way his smile seemed to hold just a little bit more warmth than usual, but something in the air had shifted.

The coffee shop was quiet, with only a few other patrons scattered around, and you found a corner table, both of you nursing your warm drinks. It was then, with the gentle hum of the cafe in the background, that the silence between you became too heavy to ignore.

“So,” you began, unsure of how to proceed. “How’s work going for you? Everything okay with the project?”

Hyun shifted slightly, running a hand through his hair before leaning back in his chair. “It’s good. But, honestly, I’m a little distracted lately.”

You raised an eyebrow, leaning forward in interest. “Distracted? By what?”

He hesitated for a moment, his gaze flicking to yours. His usual calm composure seemed to falter for just a second, and you could feel the subtle shift in the air around you. “Well, I guess I’ve been thinking about…us. More than I probably should.”

Your heart skipped a beat. Did he really just say that?

“Us?” you echoed, your voice barely a whisper, afraid that maybe you’d heard him wrong.

Hyun’s gaze softened, and he finally looked you in the eye, his expression open in a way that made your stomach do flips. “Yeah. I’ve been trying to figure out how to say it for a while, but… I think I like you, Y/N.”

Your breath caught in your throat, the words hanging in the air between you like a delicate thread. You weren’t sure what to say at first—part of you had known, deep down, that there was something more to your friendship with Hyun. But hearing him say it out loud made everything feel real, and your heart was racing too fast to keep up.

“I like you too, Hyun,” you confessed, feeling the weight lift off your chest as you finally let the words slip out.

A shy smile tugged at his lips, and you saw the relief in his eyes as he leaned forward. “I’m glad to hear that.”

The rest of the evening passed in a haze of soft conversation, laughter, and stolen glances. By the time you both parted ways outside the coffee shop, there was an undeniable shift in your relationship. The boundaries that had once separated you as coworkers had blurred, and for the first time, it felt like you were both standing at the edge of something new, something full of potential.

As you walked home, the cool spring air wrapping around you, you couldn’t help but smile to yourself, knowing that the office wouldn’t be the same again. And you were okay with that. Because sometimes, the best things in life came when you least expected them—and Hyun, with his gentle nature and quiet charm, was exactly that.
