*Click* "Kang Yejun look here!" "Kang Yejun is it true that you are dating your co star Hannah?" *Click* "Yejun what will be your next project?" *Click*

This is a scenario that the A-list Actor Kang Yejun is now used to as an actor of 11 years. Getting out of the airport itself is such a hassle for the actor with the press mobbing him left and right.

Yejun has let his manager and bodyguards deal with the press. All he must do is walk fast so they can leave the airport immediately. He is scouring through his way to check the fastest path to get out until he notices a familiar face on his far left. The man that looks like in his 60s has a bright expression as he looks at the arrival area of the airport. Yejun turned his head to look at who the man is waiting for and there he saw, he saw his first love.

"Sarang" he whispered under his breath. He stopped his steps for a second and then forcefully went out of his way from the mob of press circling around him. His pace grew fast and long as the press and his staff looked at him in confusion. It seems it only took him ten steps to get to hold her hand.

The girl turned around as her cap dramatically flew off from her head revealing her long dark hair and hair beautiful face now fully exposed.

"Sarang"

"Yejun?" said Sarang in shock.

Yejun was not able to contain his excitement and shock and pulled Sarang in a tight embrace.

"Y-Yejun wait" exclaimed Sarang as she tries to wiggle her way out of the hug.

"Is that Oh Sarang?" "Oh Sarang the actress?" The attention of the press has shifted from the actor to the young lady who was in fact a very famous actress five years ago.

*Click* "Oh Sarang look here" "Are you two dating?" "Sarang, can you give us an interview please" *Click* *Click* "Sarang!" "Sarang!" And now the press is mobbing both of them, but Sarang has no way to move, and it seems like Yejun is not listening to her.

"Yejun, Yejun can we please get out here first. Please" pleaded Sarang. "Dad! Help me please" but Sarang's dad is also not of help from the press squishing him out of the way.

It seemed like a lifetime when finally, Yejun's manager and bodyguards scooped them and her father away from the crowd leading them to the Actor's van.

"Yejun! What was that!?" asked Yejun's manager angrily. "You could have put yourself and Sarang in danger!" "Hello Sarang, how are you? We missed you at the agency" the manager's tone changed significantly soft when he spoke to Sarang.

"Hello Mr. Choi. I am doing good. B-but Mr. Choi could you please tell Yejun to stop staring at me and let go of my hand? And ask him to talk to me instead" She asked nervously.

"Yejun snap out of it!" shouted Mr. Choi which seemed to get Yejun out of his senses.

"Sarang"

"You know you have said my name a lot of times now right." Sarang giggled and smiled at Yejun.

"I-it's really you…" is what Yejun managed to say.

"Excuse me and sorry to disrupt this beautiful reunion but…" Sarang's dad interrupted awkwardly.

"Mr. Oh, I'm really sorry. I got too excited seeing Sarang again. Where should we drop you off?" Asked Yejun politely.

"You can drop us off to this building." Said Mr. Oh.

"Oh did you change address?" asked Yejun.

"Yes, we moved 5 years ago."

Of course, Yejun knows that but asked anyway. He scoured through all the places he knew Sarang might be in when she disappeared years ago.

"Yejun, can you let go of my hand now?"

"Give me your number first."

Sarang looked at his dad for a desperate attempt to save him but even her dad was intimidated with Yejun's big figure and commanding aura.

"Ok give me sec... it's XXXXXXX"

Yejun called the number which made her phone ring.

"That's me, make sure to save it. We have a lot of things to talk about."

"O-okay"

"We are almost there, should we drop you off at the front or at the basement parking area?" asked Yejun's manager to Sarang's dad.

"If you could drop us to the parking area, please, we don't want any unwanted attention to Sarang outside."

Sarang and her dad were able to get out of the van when Yejun asked if he could help with Sarang's luggage but then, his manager told him they are in a time crunch to get to his next schedule.

"I'll call you. Please answer." Said Yejun with face seemingly pleading for a positive answer.

"Y-yes, don't worry I will." Said Sarang.
