that awkward moment;

[ @hgdxchorong ]

How was she supposed to know that she was talking to the cafe owner directly? Or rather, how come no one decided to correct her when she went on about how Infinite Love’s pastries and drinks weren’t to her tastes? That’s not to say that Jihyun had really high standards for cafes; she knew what she liked while she grew up seeing them come and go in Hongdae and knew that not everyone had the same opinion as her. There were many that she frequented and were sad to see go for one reason or another, but with the abundance to choose from,  she felt like she had a good prediction about whether a cafe would gather a lot of customers or not. Still, it was a little irritating that no one tapped on her shoulder or anything while she talked.

She felt terribly sorry once someone did mention it to her after, really. She didn’t know how to run a cafe, but she already had an idea of what would be needed to do it (thank you, time management phone games. And for other friends who owned cafes too. That one was most important.). The last thing Jihyun would ever want to do to a person is offend them with her words, and being the person that she was, wanted to make it up to her for it.

If Chorong was working now, Jihyun made an effort to come visit her at the cafe as a chance to be able to apologize and explain her actions.

[hgdxchorong]

It was the usual morning rush on a Monday, and Chorong was in a pissy mood. She wanted to think that she didn’t know why, but at the back of her mind, she knew what the reason was.

“Heya boss! How was the party on Friday?” one of her employees asked as he clocked on. Chorong gave an automatic death glare, and frowned. The young man gave a shocked expression in return, and mumbled to himself that he was only being polite. He walked away and put on his work apron.

Chorong looked at her cafe and the beverages and cakes that were being served. Her cafe was a hit right? Sure she’s had complaints, but they were mostly for the wrong or mixed up orders, not the quality of the food or coffee. She put her heart and soul into this place to make it the best. She knew she couldn’t please everyone, but she suddenly became self conscious.

The reason why she was upset was because she met a girl at the party, Jihyun. They both seemed to be getting along really well, having the same witty humour, common interests, etc. But when they touched on the restaurants and cafes they’ve visited in Hongdae, she commented on how Infinite Love’s food wasn’t to her taste. She wasn’t sure how to respond to that, and just kept quiet, not wanting to make their conversation awkward. And now, she felt completely insecure about her cafe, and had the sudden urge to change anything, or everything, all because of that one comment.

mystery spot .

ft. @hgdxchorong :

IT DIDN’T MATTER THE TIME of the year. one of jieun’s favorite things was to wander around hongdae – and that usually ended up with her in the park. she just loved being around there, even with the cold breeze that made wear a scarf and a beanie. looking around and seeing some families always remembered her at the moments she lived with her parents. it had been so long since she actually had their company that it was weird. it wasn’t like they were dead – they just lived in a different city. and, also, she lived two years in another country and, as soon as she came back, she was already in seoul. at times like this, she would miss them.

yet, she soon got distracted with other people. couples being all lovey-dovey and making her frown, just because she didn’t like those scenes in real life. watching on screen was so much better – in person was so annoying. soon, her eyes were then staring at the sky, the darkness announcing the end of the day and the stars coming up. she knew she was on a distant part of the park and that was the intention, so she could wonder to herself.

“it’s impossible we are alone in this universe, honestly” jieun muttered to herself, furrowing her eyebrows. as always, she was already thinking out loud.

[hgdxchorong]

Chorong wanted to take the long way home from the hospital tonight, as the atmosphere was getting cooler with every inch the sun sets behind the horizon. This required her to walk through the massive park that stood in the centre of Hongdae.

She decides to sit at a bench, but every single one of them were filled with couples out for a romantic night, or families bonding with one another outside of their homes. She scans her eyes around the park and finally sees an empty spot next to a dark figure who is sitting alone in the dark. She decides to sit next to the shadow, accompanying her as they both sit stare at the stars forming in the sky.

She closed her eyes, taking in the night, and felt the world stand still. It was nothing like she had to deal with in the cafe, or the busy traffic in Hongdae every morning. It was a good different, and even the air she was breathing felt clearer. Chorong looked to her left and saw that the shadow was a young girl, who was staring at the sky with an intense gaze. She decided to start small talk, not wanting to feel lonely herself.

“What are you thinking about? You seem very concentrated on something.”

faceless romance

[hgdmark-blog]

Mark adjusted himself on the floor, he was now sitting up straight against the side of the bed, his eyes quickly moved side to side as he read through the book, reminding himself not to be nervous or anxious about strangers on the internet. The irk-like feeling was creeping into his thoughts doing exactly what he didn’t want it to do. Mark couldn’t understand what he was really experiencing.. but it was strange and exciting at the same time. 

the phone vibrated on the bed, he glanced over from the floor, lightly biting on his lip and contemplating whether he should check it immediately or not..  closing the book and setting it down beside him he reached over for the phone, opening the alert that led him straight to the message, a small smile appeared, 

“Heya! I’m just catching up on some TV haha! How about you?”

Mark looked around his room, thinking of what he could possibly say to sound interesting, opting for his sad reality he finally replied 

“i wasn’t expecting a reply at all..”

seeing how pretty the girl was Mark could just imagine the number of guys in her inbox, that being the reason for his short and simple first message. Not wanting to feel like time was wasted on someone who would possibly judge solely on appearance and think of him as ‘every other guy’

oh nice! well its my day off so i was simply reading and trying to relax, so tell me about yourself if it isn’t too much of nuisance” 

the end of his lips curled upwards lightly after sending the message, eyes fixed on the conversation as he held onto the phone tightly.

[hgdxchorong]

Chorong suddenly felt like a nervous 15 year old, waiting for a reply from her long time crush. She held her phone tightly with nerves and a million thoughts running through her mind. She stood up from her couch and paced around the living room, waiting for his reply. Despite him texting her first, she tried not to have to high of expectations because he was one good looking bloke, and obviously one that was way out of her league.

The phone vibrated in her hand and she automatically squealed. She put her hand over her mouth and prayed that she didn’t wake her neighbours up. She hesitated to open it at first, afraid he would say something like “oh sorry i texted the wrong person”. But she knew she could take the rejection. It was a natural occurence for her.

She carefully opened the message, as if it was a bomb, and read something unexpected. “i wasn’t expecting a reply at all...” he said. She widened her eyes in shock, and looked up at the ceiling, thanking the gods that there was a hot guy who liked her back too. She went along with his request, as she wanted to get to know about him too.

For you, it would never be a nuisance.  

She raised her eyebrows at her attempt at a one liner flirting method. Meh. Not bad. She then continued.

Well, if you’ve read my bio, you know all the fun stuff like my age, location and occupation hahah! I’d be lying to you if I said I enjoy sunsets and long walks on the beach, because really, I enjoy late night karaoke nights and billiards games. Also, a quick warning, I can be very annoying when I’m nervous because my mouth just runs. Like now.

She couldn’t help but cringe at the reply. But just decided to send it anyway because all her other personas proved to have failed with every other date she’s gone on.

    the sudden hug actually surprises him—chorong used to hug him, yes, but… how long had it been? five years? more? less? he had lost the count at some point to be honest. and besides, the height difference wasn’t like this, her arms would always be around his shoulders and they wouldn’t be that tight around him. he takes a few seconds to actually react to this, his arms going around the girl’s shoulders keeping her closer.

    laughing softly, he rests his chin on the top of her head and rubs his hands on her arms, not letting go of her as he compares this new chorong with the old one, for who he once had a crush on—the first girl he actually saw as a girl and, of course, he still would feel weird around her now. it was like seeing a ghost from his past. a pretty one that he thought he had buried years before. “i’ve been good” he nods slowly as he pulls his head away as well, looking down at her. he notices how she looks at him, taking all the details of his face, something like he doesn’t help in doing with her as well. she did change, but only for better, in fact. “what about you?” he asks, before feeling her hand into his and being dragged to her office.

    “wait!” he says as he follows her. “is it ok to leave my stuff there or should i…?” he questions, still confused at how things suddenly turned out for him.

[hgdxchorong]

Chorong was too excited to even remember that Jaebum obviously had his things with his. Remembering his table number, she turned to her closest employee who was about to go on her break and asked her to gather the things from table 7 and bring it to her desk. She didn’t want to bother Jaebum with having to go back.

They entered her office, and widened her eyes at the mess she forgot she left. After a chaotic week, papers were everywhere, and unwashed mugs piling up on the corner of her desk. She felt him looking around at the back of her eyes, and suddenly felt embarrassed that his first impression of her after all these years, was that she was a barbarian.

“I am legitimately sorry for this mess! Shit, you don’t even have a seat to sit on!” she exclaimed, as she scrambled to gather all the loose papers and hide them in the filing cabinet next to the door. She was still unsure as to what the atmosphere was like between them, but she definitely felt some sort of raw emotion was being relayed between the two of them. She tried to lighten up the mood and faced him, explaining that she remembered his room was a lot worse than this though.

When the girl revealed to be Park Chorong herself, Seunghoon was startled. How could she already own a business at that age, when he, himself, was still trying to figure out what hell he was supposed to do with his life. Of course, there’s that thing. Girls seem to be way smarter than guys. Chorong was a good example of that. Either way, when he finally found out that beautiful girl was Chorong, Seunghoon couldn’t help but to smile widely.

With someone like that being his new boss, he would be glad to come to work everyday. He took the hand she offered, and in a fun flirtatious way, he kissed it before letting it go. “Now, I’m not the kind of man that says things like this…” (in fact yes, he was exactly the type) “but you shine so bright it gave me trouble! I couldn’t even see straight.” Seunghoon was palying of course. That was his attempt to make the girl smile. And he had just realized that trying to keep her smiling was a quite pleasant task, since her smile was beautiful – just like her.

“More comfortable?” he asks in a playful tone. “Park Chorong, I must say, I barely know you. But, honestly, I’ll go wherever you tell me to.” And there he goes again. Flirting is almost like breathing to Seunghoon, he just can’t help himself. Especially when he’s talking to girl as pretty as Chorong.

[hgdxchorong]

Chorong was used copping other people’s flirtatious methods, as a lot of customers had some weird fantasies about finding “love at first sight” with their local barista. She’s naturally been a skinship sort of person because she feels that it allows people to become more comfortable around her, but she’s learnt to play along with the flirting too, and Seunghoon was no exception.

As Seunghoon reached for her hand and kissed it, like a typical romantic guy in every rom com movie, she tried to laugh seductively, though to her, it sounded like a shy giggle. She blushed a litlle and gave sly smirk, knowing that he was just playing around. No one in their right mind would flirt with their future, potential boss.

She let go of his and reached for his wrist, gently leading him to her office out the back. She sat behind her desk, and her professional demeanor was switched back on. She cleared her throat, trying to prove her authority ovre him, but his compliments and slick moves got the better of her. Chorong reached for the resume that Seunghoon sent the day before, and crossed her arms as she leaned over the desk.

“So, Seunghoon. What makes you stand out against the other candidates?”

hgdbbsoul:

soojung laughs, “sure thing, i’ll see you in a bit.” nodding her head she gives the girl a short wave before walking back outside. she had pulled the mask she was wearing off when she walked inside and took the time waiting for chorong to put it back on, rocking back and forth on her heels as she waited for her friend.

she’s already thinking of just how she would bring up the situation. it would be odd if she just sprung it up as soon as she saw her, but it would also be strange if she did so in the middle of a conversation. she sighs, a small headache causing her brows to furrow. 

at the sound of the cafe door opening, however, she relaxed and looked at her friend. even with the mask on it was obvious that she was smiling by how her cheeks poked out from under the mask. “ok,” she nods her head, starting their walk when chorong gets beside her, “are you having a hectic day in there? it seemed pretty busy.”

As they walked out the door, Chorong replied with an exaggerated sigh, hoping to lighten the mood that she felt she was bringing down.

“UGH it’s just crazy packed today! I’ve never had so many people complain about their drink orders before! It’s their fault for having super long and impossible orders,” she whined. Since it was winter, many people have stopped by the cafe to be away from the cold and the snow, so it made sense to her.

They walked around the corner and came by the park. It was empty, aside from the random individuals and couples who were rushing home to avoid the cold. Chorong looked up at the sky, trying to pluck up the courage to initiate the conversation that she needed to have with Soojung.

“Hey Soojung. I don’t want to make you uncomfortable, but maybe we shouldn’t hang out together. Your fans seem to hate me and...”

Yoojung couldn’t help but giggle at Chorong’s reply. It came as no surprise she would practically completely reject the idea. Now she was an adult now, she wanted to experience such things, such as drinking and clubbing. She had gotten drunk once back home, when her aunt forced her out to a party and well, it didn’t end very well ( she passed out far too quickly and the neighbourhood kids got hand of a permanent marker ). Surely now that she was order and legal, she could handle her liquor a little better, so things wouldn’t end so tragically.

[ TEXT TO : chorong :P ] ur so boring lmao [ TEXT TO : chorong :P ] it can be a new adventure !!! [ TEXT TO : chorong :P ] pls come or i’ll go by myself and that probably wouldn’t end well :^)

She hopped up from position on her couch and made her way towards her closet. If she was going to go clubbing, she would need to look cute and she had the perfect dress in mind – a bright pink ensemble that she had been saving for a special occasion. Her first night out as an adult was definitely a special occasion in her book!

[hgdxchorong]

Suddenly, Chorong’s motherly instincts kicked in and knew that she shouldn’t leave Yoojung at the club alone. While it’s not really her scene, she needed to be there to protect her from the nasty things that happen in the club. She was sure that she would be safer with Chroong, but who was she kidding? Things may not end too well with Chorong there because she too, still felt like a child.

She gripped her phone, frustrated with her indecisiveness. It was either a lazy night in , or be sweaty out at night. She chose the later, obviously thinking of Yoojung, her baby, and replied back. She knew that if she didn’t go and something happened to her, she could never forgive herself. But she’s definitely gonna hold a grudge against Yoojung for indirectly making her feel this way.

@hgdxchorong​

Thank god for 24-hour convenience stores. Truly, Stephanie thought, they are a gift from the heavens.

“No. What? Shut up! You’re a liar!” Jay could not be blamed for the poorly-timed phonecall. Timezones were the clockblock of the century, but there was no way in hell Stephanie was going to hang up on him. “Dude, Iron Man is totally cooler than Thor. What the hell are you saying?” The English came as a free-flowing stream as her eyes scanned the shelves of energy drinks, pulling a face at the strikingly-coloured cans with words that seemed to promise something close to actual death. “In what universe is Thor better?”

With a box of instant coffee sachets in her free hand, Stephanie scoffed. “Tch. Right. The Marvel universe. Ha ha. You’re a freakin’ comedian, Jay.” She inspected the rest of the shelves, not bothering to pull her hood back up as it slipped off her head, instead making her way over to the shelves of instant ramen – yet another gift from the heavens. “Well, for one, he’s cooler than you. They both are, to be honest, but Iron Man still takes the cake. Plus, Thor wears a cape, and as one wise woman once said, ‘No capes’. Clearly he’s just asking to be sucked into a plane turbine thingy.”

Extra spicy? No thank you. Returning the scary-looking, bright-red styrofoam cup back onto the shelf, Stephanie reached for a less threatening-looking cup, barely managing to spit out “yes, I just quoted Edna Mode. She’s a goddamn genius, Jay,” before she could hear another voice – not Jay’s voice. A female voice. A loud female voice. A very loud female voice. “Hold on. Sorry excuse m–”

Stephanie stopped. She was totally ready to tell the stranger to lower their voice because excuse me, I’m engaged in a very heated debate right now, but the sound of near-perfect English suddenly caught her off-guard. She could vaguely hear Jay calling for her attention in her ear, but it was not registering in the slightest.

I have no idea who you are, but you’re speaking English in Korea and I am so lowkey-but-really-highkey intrigued right now. Hi?

[hgdxchorong]

Chorong stayed up all night, trying to re-design the menus for her cafe. It was currently 2 am in the morning and there were no signs of her sleeping any time soon. Thankfully, she had the week off, but she’d really rather spend the night staying up to watch The Mummy trilogy. Fangirling over Brendan Fraser and his quest to defeat the king mummy wounded more fun, but if she was to work as a graphic designer any time soon, this was the reality of it.

As she contiued to filter the images of the cafe’s beverages, her phone started singing Crush “Sometimes”. She smiled when she noticed the caller’s ID, though also a little bit worried as her brother usually wasn’t allowed to call during this time.

“Oppa! How are you calling me? They’ll put you in the isolation room for this!” she loudly whispered, not wanting to interup her neighbours. She was obviously glad to hear her brother’s voice again, after she was unable to visit him recently in the mental hospital.

“Chorong! Speak a little louder! I can’t hear you,” he yelled at her. Chorong tried to shush him, afraid that he would be caught on the phone by the shift supervisors at the hospital. She heard her stomach growling too, and thought that she needed a break. Her eyes felt strained and tired, but she knew she had to get back to work soon after she caught up with Chohee.And so, she grabbed her navy hoodie and keys, and went out the door, still asking Chohee how he’s doing.

She reached the convenience store and walked straight to where the triangle kimbap was. At this point, she started talking really loudly so that Chohee could hear her properly, all the while another girl at the ramen section was laughing and yelling loudly, arguing about Marvel characters. She ignored the other girl, and excused herself to walk past to reach the front counter, but paused her steps and made a quick u-turn and tapped the girl’s shoulder.

“You’re right. Iron Man is a thousand times better.”
