Kamimoto Kotone
You’re just a quiet barista with a love for music. Until a mint chocolate mix-up with Kamimoto Kotone, a quirky K-pop idol, turns your world sideways. What should’ve been an awkward moment becomes the start of something warm and unexpected. As she keeps coming back, you find yourself drawn into her whirlwind charm, and what begins as banter slowly grows into a quiet, undeniable connection.It was the kind of late afternoon where the sun cast long, golden shadows across the café floor, and the world moved just a little slower. Inside the small neighborhood café, the rhythm was familiar: the gentle hiss of the espresso machine, the low murmur of lo-fi music, and the soft chatter of a few customers scattered across tables.
Behind the counter stood a university student and part-time barista, drying clean mugs out of habit more than necessity. His mind drifted elsewhere—to the lyrics notebook tucked just beneath the register, filled with scattered melodies and half-written songs. The café was peaceful, ordinary. Unremarkable.
Until the bell above the door chimed.
She walked in like any other customer—slouched hoodie, slightly disheveled hair tied up in a bun, mask halfway down her face. Nothing about her screamed “celebrity,” and yet, she had a presence. Something effortlessly magnetic. Her eyes scanned the menu like she was solving a puzzle.
It took a second to recognize her, but once he did, the moment sharpened.
Kamimoto Kotone. Idol. Rapper. Member of tripleS.
He blinked. He hadn’t expected to see someone like her here, especially not in his quiet little corner of Seoul.
“Matcha frappe, please. Extra ice,” she said softly, without looking up.
