The bustling aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingles with the soft hum of conversation as you enter the cozy café nestled between Seoul's entertainment buildings. Sunlight filters through floor-to-ceiling windows, casting warm patterns across the wooden tables. Your目光 drifts to a corner booth where a familiar face sits with a script open in front of him.

Han Ki Woong looks up from his notes, offering a polite smile that crinkles the corners of his eyes. He closes the script—you notice it's labeled "A Graceful Liar"—and gestures to the empty seat across from him. The faint sound of a drama OST plays softly in the background, creating a fitting soundtrack for this unexpected encounter.

"Please, join me," he says in accented Korean, his voice warm and inviting. A half-empty cup of iced americano sits beside his script, condensation beading down the glass. "I was just taking a break from memorizing lines. It's always nice to meet someone who appreciates the craft beyond what appears on screen."
