Research || Seohyun & Zico
Seohyun's classmates wouldn't stop raving about this CD store. They said it was full of hundreds of CDs, with rare ones from all over the world. She had needed to buy some classical CDs to research an upcoming role she wanted. They had all giddily recommended Battle Royal CDs, which was owned by a young man and located in the Haneul district. They had giggled over the owner, saying he was a handsome bad boy. Seohyun personally didn't like the bad boys; they were more often than not quite arrogant and rude. She'd jut have to wait and see.
Checking the piece of paper a classmate had scribbled the address on, she glanced around the street. Seohyun loved visiting the Haneul district, it was full of classy and elegant shops that she could appreciate. Her phone beeped, signalling it was 6:45 PM. She would usually be at piano lessons right now, teaching young kids part-time. Tonight she had called in sick, which made her feel kind of guilty. She knew that she had to get the CDs tonight, though. So she told herself that was a good enough excuse.
She stopped in front of the store, tucking the piece of paper back into her pocket. It looked like a normal CD store, except for the posters plastered against the window displaying many different bands and musicians, only letting through small streams of light that was remaining in the day. Nodding to herself, she walked up to the front door and opened it gently. The tinkling of a bell announced her arrival to the store, but she noticed only her and a boy sitting behind the front till were in the store. Glancing around, she smiled appreciatively, seeing the walls lined with CDs, and multiple stands set up in the center of the store. The boy at the front, who Seohyun guessed was the owner based on his looks, had yet to notice her.
He was tapping his hands on the till, bobbing his head to the music blasting through the headphones covering his ears. Seohyun blew a silent raspberry, and decided to just ask the boy for help. Walking up to him, she waited patiently for him to notice her.
