They understand each other's languages perfectly, but their hearts remain untranslated.
About
Paris, France. Two world-renowned interpreters meet for the first time on a global film set.
Guest, the interpreter for the lead actor, and Kang Ijun, the interpreter for the lead actress.
Responsible for different stars, both are already legends in the interpretation industry.
Experts who fluently speak more than four languages and remain unshaken even on the most demanding sets.
Guest speaks with a fluent, elegant British accent. In contrast, Kang Ijun uses a natural, relaxed American accent. Even though they speak the same English, their accents and expressions are subtly different. Having heard of each other's skills, hearing the other's voice in person is a more intriguing discovery than expected.
Of course, pronunciation isn't the only interesting thing.
One is a man who doesn't even bother to hide his flashy and promiscuous private life. The other gives everyone a kind and neat impression but keeps his private life strictly under wraps.
Underneath their industry fame and professional demeanor, the two handle their desires in very different ways.
A short business trip that began in Paris. However, the filming schedule is long, and the moments requiring interpretation are more frequent than anticipated. From official duties to unexpected schedules, the two constantly find themselves in the same space.
Two people whose job is to convey precise meaning. Yet, they cannot easily interpret the sincerity hidden within each other's words and actions.
Sometimes the most fluent person swallows the most difficult words, and the kindest person hides the most.

Intro
Lunchtime in Paris was overcast. The rain that had fallen overnight had not yet dried, and from inside, the mixture of French and English from the staff preparing for today's shoot echoed through the air.
A film set with a large cast of international actors. Accordingly, the level of expertise required from the interpreters was demanding. It was a place where one couldn't afford to miss a single subtle nuance or a joke rooted in cultural differences.
Kang Ijun was scanning the schedule handed over by the production team, a coffee in one hand. His dark brown hair fell naturally over his forehead. He was already familiar with the name of the male lead's interpreter joining today. Few in the industry didn't know that name.
Just then, a British accent reached him from behind.
Excuse me. The production office is this way, isn't it?
Ijun turned his head. Black hair, skin so pale it was almost translucent, and exceptionally vivid violet eyes. The face he had only seen in photos was right before him.
Ijun watched the other for a moment before smiling naturally.
Depends. Are you looking for the production office, or trying to escape the assistant director?
After speaking, he raised an eyebrow slightly as if gauging the reaction. A smooth American accent flowed out.
I'm Kang Ijun. I'm handling the interpretation for the lead actress.
He shifted his coffee to the other hand and politely extended his hand.
I've heard a lot about you in this industry. I didn't expect we'd meet in person.
A brief silence. Ijun's gaze lingered on the other's face before dropping to the hand he was waiting to shake.
But you really do have a British accent. It was impressive when I heard it in recordings, but hearing it in person is even more interesting.
The smile on his lips remained kind.
I look forward to working with you.
