after meeting with her manager, hyunhee decides a stroll through the legacy entertainment building was necessary. she wanted to see how the halls had changed since her time as a trainee there, what new posters had been added to the walls and which ones stayed the same. the agency building was under going renovations, had their sister structure gone through similar changes too?
“oof!” she turns the corner a bit too quickly and runs into someone making the same sharp turn. thankfully, hyunhee wasn’t knocked off her feet, just off balance a little bit.
“i’m so sorry!” she exclaims, trying to get a better look at the person she ran into. “i should have been paying more attention. i get distracted easily and i wasn’t looking where i was going, but . . .” she trails off once she gets a better look at the girl in front of her. “oh my god! you’re so pretty! are you one of the new models?” hyunhee asks, tilting her head.

MOST MEMORABLE OR FAVORITE EVENT
── despite her fears, hyunhee eventually grew to love being a part of fashion week and walking the runway. she loved being able to explore new york, especially with her cousin in tow.
﹫POLM89 okay but what did she even contribute to this song? i'm a badass? the lyrics aren't even that good to begin with . . .
💬 🔁 ♡
﹫3UNHEE honestly, this song is such a mood, i don't know why people are hating on it. plus, they wouldn't have put her name in the credits if she hadn't contributed anything worthwhile!
💬 🔁 ♡
"Very 90's maxxing. Or is it 00's? Y2K?" Before his time and all but it seems that this is what was coming back as a fashion reference. He didn't want to call it vintage, because he wasn't sure if that was what Hyunhee was going for. "I love that your brand is basically named after you. Very Vivienne Westwood or Coco Chanel of you," he chuckled while looking through her concept images, flipping through the images, legs crossed in his seat while prodding through. "And this is why you are in the fashion industry and I'm not, I just wear whatever the stylists put on me." He's not all that interested in curating an image of any sort for himself, because he knows that if he debuts, that won't be in his own hands anyway. Unless it's a day off. But how many of those do idols get?
"So does this mean I can join your PR list?" Danny quirks his brow, paired with a cheeky smile as he nudges the model, setting down the photographs. "Do you have any prototypes?" Too bad he was only a trainee, he wouldn't actually add much hype to her label.
she’s excited to show off her latest collection to her friends, even if it’s not necessarily their style. hyunhee doesn’t see danny wearing one of her belts, or even using the claw clips from last season, but he knows she can appreciate the vibes shes going for.
“can i tell you honestly? i put off naming the brand until the last minute and couldn’t think of a better name, so i just went with what i was going to ask to be my stage name when i was still training to be an idol,” she tells him. “my first pick was honey, for the stage name and the brand, but we already have an idol named honey, so . . .” hyunhee trails off, shrugging her shoulders.
“do you like it?” she asks, clapping her hands. “i know the brand is geared towards girls right now, but maybe i’ll release more belt buckles in the future. what do guys like?” she tilts her head. “skulls?”
hyunhee rises from her seat and goes to dig through the box she had brought out. “here’s the pink belt,” she says handing it to him. “and the star buckle. i made sure it was made out of real leather and not some cheap PVC material. doesn’t it feel nice?”

hyunhee flips through the pages of her script, reading the lines silently in her head. the words go out of focus for a moment and she has to blink a few times to get the blurriness to go away. she's been staring for so long yet it's hard for her to memorize her lines despite only having a few of them.
she decides that it's time for a break, even if it's short since they have to begin filming soon. hyunhee looks up at sanghyun with a smile, formulating a few questions to ask the veteran model.
"it's not as easy to memorize lines in a script as it is to memorize lines in a song," hyunhee says with a laugh. "do you have any tips or tricks? i've been staring at these pages for too long now for nothing to have stuck in my head." she frowns.
to sanghyun, filming cfs combined a lot of elements that he enjoyed such as modeling and acting. but when it was with a game that he wasn’t too familiar with, there was the added challenge of understanding and remembering gaming terminology. thinking about that challenge reminded him of the different memorization techniques he had developed over time.
after hearing hyunhee’s question, sanghyun paused to think about the tips he’s tried and learned over the past few years. “reciting the lines with another partner helps.” he stated the first one that came to his mind, but sanghyun felt that he should have suggested something a bit more unique but still effective. “when i memorize lines, i split them into sections to make it less daunting. but i like using the acronym method where you write the first letter of each word and punctuation and memorize that first. the science behind it is that the letters and punctuations act as training wheels for your brain so that when you need help remembering the next word, your brain will know what letter that word starts with.” remembering what hyunhee had mentioned earlier, he added later on, “but i agree that it’s harder memorizing lines in a script than lines in a song, especially if the song has multiple people taking part in it.”
a thought had popped in his mind that he never bothered to ask someone until now. “when you memorize lines in a song, is it easier for you to memorize the rap parts versus the singing ones?”
”oh! that’s interesting, i’ve never heard of the acronym method before,” hyunhee tells him, furrowing her brows as she thinks. it could have very well been something she was supposed to have learned during a workshop but either forgot or wasn’t paying enough attention for it to stick in her head. “i know we don’t have many lines, so it might seem silly that i’m struggling,” she says sheepishly. “but i appreciate your help! and i would love to go over our lines together,” the model tells him earnestly.
”that’s a good question.” hyunhee pauses to think. “now that i’m on the spot, i’m not sure? i think a song is easier to memorize because it’s catchy. i think it might be harder to memorize the rap verses, actually.” she laughs. “at least, memorize them in a way where the flow comes together, and sometimes it’s so fast that it’s easy to get tongue-tied if you’re not careful,” she tells him thoughtfully.
“you don’t rap though, do you?” she asks. “i think a lot of people tend to believe it’s easier because you’re ‘just talking’ instead of having to hit high notes, but i disagree. maybe i’m biased, but,” hyunhee shrugs. “it takes a little bit of skill. they’re both difficult in their own ways.”
”of course i have clean cups.” hyunhee rolls her eyes as she fishes two out of the cabinet, one for her and one for jisoo. “i’m not an animal. plus i have a dishwasher.” she looks down at the appliance. “it makes things easy for me.”
her eyes scan the fridge, deciding what she should serve her guest. she had lots of cans, soda, energy drinks, even single serve coffees. none of those felt right for this occasion, though. hyunhee ponders for only a minute more, knowing that if she held the door open for too long the fridge would start beeping at her. she grabs the bottle of sparkling water from the fridge, setting it down on the counter before turning back towards the fridge and filling their cups up with ice. the model rifles through her cabinet once more, grabbing a bottle of cherry syrup and adding it to the drinks. she finishes each cup off with a straw before joining jisoo on the couch.
“my newest hyper-fixation,” she tells him handing the glass over. “i saw one recipe on tiktok and now i’m obsessed! i have other flavors of syrup too, if you want to change it up a bit.” hyunhee smiles, bouncing in her seat a bit.
“fashion week was awesome!” she exclaims. “i agree, though. i couldn’t do it every week. there was too much going on all the time.” hyunhee pauses for a moment, biting her lip. “can i be honest? i felt a little self-conscious afterwards. what’s it called? imposter syndrome, maybe? but it just felt bad to be with all those other models who have been around much longer than i have. oh, and they’re so much taller too,” she sighs. she wasn’t expecting to dump all her feelings out so early, but jisoo did make the mistake of asking for it.
"oh fan-cy," jisoo quips as he watches with amusement at the creation of the drinks. it felt like he was at a booth somewhere, moreso than at hyunhee's place. he wouldn't have the patience to collect all of the items for this, but now he knew a few doors down, he could pop in for this drink if it was to his liking in the future. "do you do other combinations too?" he snaps a picture of it first before taking a sip, the sparkling water tempering for a fizzy mouthfeel.
"hyperfixations are hard to knock. don't let these products go to waste. although i'm sure its only the syrup that could eventually expire and you could use it for other things, like..baking. maybe? do you bake? i kind of started cooking more for the channel but i'm not that great at it, ha. maybe i should try baking something next..."
"i'm sure there were other new models too." jisoo smiles, having been there before after listening to hyunhee's honesty. "i completely understand the imposter syndrome though. it gets better, i promise. and height isn't all its about in the modeling industry, don't worry! i think a lot of brands have been improving with diverse models. i think i even saw a model with vitiligo at one of my shows, which i thought was inclusive. besides the self-consciousness, did you enjoy it otherwise? tell me about the positives too."
”i think cherry is my favorite flavor right now. i have a bunch of different syrups though. oh! last night i tried pineapple.” she pauses to take a sip of her own drink, relishing in the crisp flavor. “so good.”
“you? baking?” hyunhee raises an eyebrow at her cousin. “well, if that happens and it tastes good, you’ve got to bring me some, alright? it’s the least you can do.” she laughs.
hyunhee’s never really been self-conscious, she’s always felt confident about herself. these feelings are new and she doesn’t know how to deal with them.
“i feel like maybe i’m not meant to do runway, it was really intense even though the shows i walked for were pretty lowkey. maybe i should stick to pictorials?” she laughs, shaking her head. “i know there were a lot of different girls there and my height shouldn’t hold me back, but i just felt kind of . . . small. i’m not used to not feeling confident i guess. i don’t know why it felt like that. maybe because it was my first time?”

surprisingly, the initial discussions with her team went off without a hitch. she’s never been the best at expressing herself, but for her brand’s newest collection, her creativity just started flowing. everything came together surprisingly well. with the model picked, it was time for hyunhee to sit down with her and discuss their plan of action.
the spread on the table is less now since it’s just the two of them, but there are still plenty of pastries to choose from. hyunhee had also contacted minji’s manager inquiring about what her favorite drink was so she could have that ready for her too. she’s halfway through a chocolate croissant when she hears a soft knock on the door.
“come in!” she yells, standing up from her seat. she waves excitedly as mini walks in, gesturing her to sit at the seat across from her. “please sit! we have lots to talk about so i made sure to get us snacks.” hyunhee takes her seat once again.
“oh! and before i forget this is for you,” she says pushing a box towards the idol. “everything from the newest collection plus a few extra things.”
this isn't minji's first time modeling, but this one feels nice. she's modeling for someone she knew as a trainee. in fact, minji remembers their prior interaction in particular; the girl coming up to her with a kiss goodbye album, shyly asking for an autograph. therefore, this project was a special one.
the girl made sure to come to this initial meeting in top condition. despite being a night owl, she made sure to get a full night of rest the previous night, and also made sure to arrive at the building early. "hello," she greets other excitedly, entering the room with a bounce in her step. she takes the seat across from hyunhee, immediately eyeing all of the pastries in front of her. "wow! how will i ever choose?" she jokingly asks; of course, she will try them all at least once.
the idol graciously accepts the gifts as well, gawking at the belts she immediately sees as she opens the box. "these are so cute!" she pulls one out, then stands up and immediately holds them up to her jeans. while she has no way of seeing what it looks like, she shows them to hyunhee to see. "i'm going to be wearing these all the time. thank you!"
she sits back down, calming herself in order to get to business. "so, we should talk about the ad campaign, right? i might get too carried away if i keep looking at these belts..."
”i wasn’t sure what you’d like! i think i went a little overboard,” hyunhee says with a chuckle. “but you can take whatever is left over back home to your members. i wouldn’t want this going to waste.”
“i’m glad you like the belts! my brand is focusing on accessories, and i think statement belts are coming back into style with the whole y2k revival. i think maybe next time i’ll add some more buckles. i like that they’re interchangeable, it saves you from having, like, 20 belts.” hyunhee laughs again before taking a sip of her drink. “easier to store, too!”
“ah, you’re right! let’s get into it,” she says while pushing over a stack of papers towards minji. “here’s the script. there’s a few lines where you talk, but it’s mostly to the camera and then the person you’re meeting at the end of the commercial. i’d like your input as well.” hyunhee looks up at the idol with a smile. “the concept is basically set, but if there’s anything you can think of that might add a little pizazz, we can work with that.”
﹫HANFAN i was wondering if hyunhee was going to return to hosting so i'm glad to see that she's back! her energy is so infectious and can't wait to watch her special stage!
💬 🔁 ♡
﹫TY78DL i didn't like her when she MC'd for the show. why can't these types of programs just stick to idols? it's better that way.

it’d been a while since the two of them had hung out together that wasn’t inclusive of their schedules. they were both able to travel together because of fashion week, film together for valentine’s day. being a part of the same career field as your family has its perks.
only if you can tolerate them, of course.
when hyunhee had asked jisoo to come over, she hadn’t expected it to be so soon. they lived in the same apartment complex, though. she was deluding herself thinking it would take him a while to get back to her with times when he was available.
the doorbell rings and she goes to get it. letting jisoo in, hyunhee kicks aside some of her shoes to make room for his. “you should have texted me more than like, ten minutes before you were coming over,” she huffs shutting the door behind him. “i would have cleaned up.” her apartment’s a mess as usual, but she’s not embarrassed by it, not in front of jisoo. but honestly, though, she wouldn’t have cleaned up regardless. that’s just how he is.
”do you want something to drink?” she asks heading over to the kitchen. hyunhee grabs a glass for herself
"i could physically walk back to my apartment right now and come back in five," he gives her a blatant look. they've been in one another's messier spaces before - this was nothing, seriously! but things were different years ago. if anyone asked him a decade ago whether he'd be getting closer or further away from family, he would not have guessed it'd be the former. and it was great. one step away from being roomies, he joked from time to time, to dig at hyunhee, but it was likely better for them to be in actual separated rooms.
"as long as you have umm clean cups, i'm down. but do you actually have anything other than water, because otherwise i will give you ten minutes because i'll go down to the convenience store and grab us some options." following her path directly, he peers over her shoulder to get an eyeful of the fridge. "you know what, surprise me." jisoo takes a straight 180 turn and goes and plops himself down in the chair, as if he hadn't been sofa-rotting in his own place.
"it's. so nice to just. have a breather. i couldn't do fashion week every single week, if you know what i mean. how was it? are you enjoying everything?"
”of course i have clean cups.” hyunhee rolls her eyes as she fishes two out of the cabinet, one for her and one for jisoo. “i’m not an animal. plus i have a dishwasher.” she looks down at the appliance. “it makes things easy for me.”
