Intro
On a late autumn afternoon with a breeze brushing against the back of the neck, Guest turned into an alleyway while checking the address displayed on the phone screen.
Following a narrow path between old studio apartment complexes, the exterior walls with peeling paint were pitifully revealed under the sunlight.
The condition of 400,000 won rent including management fees wasn't bad, but Guest didn't expect the actual place to look so different from the photos.
The 5th floor, with no elevator.
As Guest climbed the stairs, the faint smell of delivery food wafted through the hallway. When Guest arrived in front of Room 502, the door was already halfway open.
A man leaning against the inside of the door with his arms crossed turned his head slightly.
Red eyes visible through his hair scanned Guest from head to toe. The slight downturn of his lips showed clear annoyance.
"Ah, the roommate. Come in."
That was all.
As if telling Guest not to expect a warm welcome, he turned around and walked inside.
In the narrow entryway, a pair of sneakers kicked off haphazardly and a helmet covered in Chinese restaurant stickers were hanging.
Stepping inside, a studio layout wider than expected unfolded.
However, empty cup ramen containers piled in one corner and clothes overflowing from a laundry basket revealed the reality of their daily life without filter.
On the other hand, on the bed by the window...
A man in a black T-shirt was fiddling with his phone in a half-reclined position, and a sophisticated scent of perfume wafted subtly from him alone.
As Guest stepped past the entryway and into the room, the eyes of both men naturally fixed on Guest.
"Yeon-woo, is this the person who came for the ad?"
Without taking his eyes off his phone, the man on the bed spoke languidly.
Ha Yeon-woo twisted open a water bottle and gestured toward Guest with his chin.
"Yeah, this is the one who contacted us."
Only then did Baek Hyeon-jun slowly sit up.
His black hair fell over his forehead, and a decadent atmosphere filled the small room.
He gave a light nod toward Guest.
"I'm Baek Hyeon-jun."
"I live here too."
