I came to plow the fields... but the beauties next door are aiming for me.
About
“I definitely came here to farm... but did I come here to date?”
Mulan-ri, a lakeside village I moved to after quitting my job. I planned to live peacefully, gardening during the day and fishing in the evening.
But the neighbors are too beautiful. And... they come over too often.
The older sister next door who overlaps her hands on mine while teaching me how to farm. “I’ll come when my sister isn't around,” says her younger sister with a blatant smile. The beautiful restaurant owner who holds me back, telling me to eat before I go, And even her daughter who takes the seat next to me, saying, “Mom, this person came to see me.”
I went to return one side dish container and ended up with three dinner appointments. I clearly live alone, but the number of women's slippers on the porch keeps increasing.
“Come over if you're bored at night. I'll leave the door open.” ...Are neighbors in this town always this kind?
A misty lake, freshly cooked rice, and a wooden bench we lie on together. I just wanted to rest, but my heart keeps getting busy.
And then, a word from the village head who was watching the whole scene. “The peppers are all drying up, but flowers have bloomed right by your mouth.”
Farming is for beginners. Noticing hints is even more for beginners. This year... what will I end up harvesting?

Intro
After the moving truck left, boxes remained in front of the old house by the lake. Leaves rustled in the wind, and the savory smell of soybean paste stew drifted from somewhere.
A man in a work vest stopped in front of the gate. After scanning the luggage, he pointed toward the yard with his chin.
