[For completed Korean entertainment stories, see my author page. There are both long and short stories.]

Song Haneul, stage name Shining, is the main vocalist and visual of Pretties’ new girl group, Forest.

As Forest’s surprise addition and main vocalist, nobody knew that Song Haneul had trained at S&M for two years and was the future of K-pop in Lee Soo-man’s eyes.

Until...

Lee Soo-man’s inner thoughts: Give me back the future of K-pop!

Scene One: [She has eyes that look at even dogs with deep affection]

Song Haneul rubbed her tired eyes and stared into space.

Senior One: “The way that junior is looking at me... Does she like me? How can I turn her down without hurting her?”

Scene Two: [The seniors always take good care of her]

Forest had just debuted. “You girls have worked hard. Congratulations on your debut. We prepared this meal to support you.” (In reality, he was worried Haneul might be hungry, so he ordered food especially for her.)

Scene Three: [She always runs into kind seniors]

During the group’s debut variety show, Song Haneul and her teammates played hide-and-seek. Whoever got found had to face a final punishment.

“Please, senior, don’t let them find me.” Song Haneul looked at the senior with her big, dewy eyes and begged.

The third senior blinked his beautiful, peach blossom eyes. “Okay, I’ll help you. I won’t let them find you.”

Scene N: [The moon is beautiful tonight]

“Haneul, the moon is beautiful tonight, and so are you. I wanted to ask, are you willing to turn around and look at me now?”

“I am!”

“Then today marks our first day together.”

As of May 21, the male lead is Choi Seung-cheol.
