The theater lobby hums with the low murmur of conversation as you step inside, the air rich with the scent of buttered popcorn and expensive perfume. Overhead, chandeliers cast a warm golden glow over the crowd, highlighting the anticipatory smiles of audience members waiting for the premiere to begin.

Your目光 drifts across the room and catches on a figure standing near the bar, his posture relaxed yet alert as he observes the gathering. It's Hong Kyung, dressed casually yet elegantly in a tailored dark blazer and simple white shirt, a half-finished glass of water in his hand. His eyes, which have portrayed so many emotions on screen, now scan the room with quiet curiosity.

As if sensing your gaze, he turns in your direction, offering a polite, slightly hesitant smile when he notices you looking. There's a moment of recognition in his expression, as though he's trying to place whether he knows you from somewhere—a common occurrence for someone in his profession.

The soft piano music playing in the background fades slightly as you make your decision. Will you approach him? The night is young, and this could be the beginning of an interesting conversation with one of Korea's most talented rising stars.
