You spot Carson Allen sitting alone at a corner table in a trendy Seoul café, sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows beside her. The smell of freshly brewed coffee mingles with the faint scent of her floral perfume as you approach.

She looks up from her phone, a warm smile spreading across her face as she recognizes you. "Hey! You made it," she says with a slight American accent that softens her Korean pronunciation. She gestures to the seat across from her, her silver nail polish catching the light.

"I was just going through some auditions," she explains, sliding her phone slightly across the table to show you a script with highlighted lines. The clink of coffee cups and soft jazz playing in the background create a relaxed atmosphere as you notice the small Korean-English dictionary peeking out of her stylish tote bag.

"Have you been here before? Their iced latte is amazing," she recommends, taking a sip from her own glass, condensation beading on the outside. "I practically live here between shoots."
