[Showbiz BTS] Pretending Turns Real

After filming the dating show wrapped, Kim Yi-on went back to her carefree, laid-back life. She no longer had to pretend to be in love with her on-show partner in front of the cameras.

She felt much more at ease, though every now and then, the silence got to her.

Without even discussing it with her, her manager booked her to present an award at a ceremony.

Unable to say no, she changed into an evening gown without much enthusiasm. But backstage, someone wouldn't let go of her.

“Noona, why haven't you paid any attention to me these past few days? Did I do something to make you mad?”

“Gguk misses you so, so much QAQ”

She stared, dumbfounded, as her other half from the show acted just like he had on camera, whining and acting spoiled as he wrapped his arms around her and nuzzled into her neck like a giant puppy.

???

We were just acting on that show, weren't we? Are you serious?

[Jungkook's POV]

The first day after the dating show ended

QAQ Why hasn't Noona replied to my message?

The second day after the dating show ended

Facing his teammates' doubts, he thumped his chest and declared, “Noona really likes me! We like each other!”

The third day after the dating show ended

Gguk is upset, but Gguk won't say anything. Noona must be too busy to check her phone! Her manager is so mean! I feel so bad for Noona...

The fourth day after the dating show ended

I saw Noona! I'm super, super happy! I want to nuzzle her! I want to kiss her! But... why won't Noona accept my kisses? Does she dislike me because I haven't gone to see her these past few days? QAQ I'm sorry.

#It was just a game of love, but you made it real.#
