Chemistry

* * *

The lights go out, the staff say, "Well done! ’I gathered downstairs shouting. You touched the speakers, inspected the special effects equipment, and took action to finish.

Jungwoo muttered as if to the hot pack that had exhausted and oxidized even one grain.

“Well done, you too. ”

Even after the official event ended, the majority of shopping mall customers who watched the stage did not leave easily because they were overwhelmed. Then, there was a broadcast announcement from all speakers of the mall.

- Special December offer. 24 hours from now, there will be a prize draw at 8: 30 pm in the general goods area on the first floor · · · · · ·.

Almost all floors seemed to have waited until the end of store.

"Huh?"

Customers slipped out like a tide.

Jungwoo smiled bitterly after experiencing the power in front of his eyes when it became commercialized. Then I met Yoon Iseol who was holding the guitar tightly.

‘Mmm · · · · · · · · · ·. ’

It was like he was always looking at his side. I also faced Jungwoo because I thought it would be awkward if I suddenly turned my gaze. Unexpectedly, Jung, who had the opportunity to take a closer look at her, was amazed.

‘It's beautiful, really. Yu Hee looks so ugly. ’

Yoon Iseol, who was wearing stage makeup, was showing off his overwhelming beauty as he looked at it quietly.

Especially those dense eyes, nose, lips.

It was beautiful as white in my head. I just feel sorry for my tapered shoulders.

“Seul Lee! I'll see you later! ”

Yuhui shouted as she walked down the stage.

Jung wakes up quickly to this sound.

‘Obtain a signature · · sigh. All right, now. ’

In fact, there has never been a desire to get a Girlfriend Signature before. Fans are pretty scary. It cools too easily.

“Excuse me.”

I looked at her with a nervous expression that I felt obliged to the call of Yoon Yi Seul.

“My name is Yoon Iseol. ”

Jung became a curious face.

“I know.”

“When did you know? ”

Jungwoo, who remembered what happened this morning, replied immediately.

“I was on the bus and I heard a song on the radio." Winter is coming "? ”

“That was two years ago. You have my autograph, don't you? Don't forget to listen to my fans from today on. And if you like the song... ”

Yoon Seol seemed hesitant to say something and couldn't bring it up. Jungwoo, who was touching the cold hot pack in his hand, suddenly thought about it.

“Tell Director Sungjae not to carry around a bunch of fireplaces because he can't buy them at these hot-pack convenience stores. Then Yoon Il-sul will freeze to death. ”

“The hot pack where the activated carbon vibrates and the oxidation is accelerating? ”

Her smile widens.

“You remember?”

“I didn't want this guy to be a stalker. I don't know what you're talking about. ”

Yoon Yi Seol smiled.

“And you. I'm not a staff, I'm not a wizard. Then what are you doing? ”

“I'd say chemist. ”

“Chemist?”

Yoon Yi Seol's ears were deaf because he told me about a strange job.

When Jungwoo approached Yoon Iseol closely, he realized that she was only staring at it when she was focusing and thinking about something. However, now that the target is himself, I turned my eyes away from other places. People have to be pretty with the pressure.

“Lee Seol!”

Chief Ji called Yoon Il-sun from below the stage.

“What are you doing here? There's a lot of fans in the parking lot and we have to get out first. Otherwise, you'll get mixed up with the other fans. ”

“Oh, I'm going. ”

Yoon Lee Seol suddenly opened his mouth, looking at Jungwoo.

“If you like that song, we'll meet again. ”

“Yes?”

Jungwoo stared back at Yoon Lee Seol who was rushing down the stage.

What do you mean? ’

Chief Ji recognized Jungwoo and greeted him briefly. Then he disappeared with Yoon Lee Seol into the waiting room.

Ding-dong.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Su Chan circled the square. The applause who found a friend standing under the stage called out his name loudly.

“Jungwoo! Wahaha! ”

Jungwoo rushed to the front and clapped as if stepping on the brakes. I spat in my mouth what was so urgent.

“You're crazy. I'm on the same stage with Yoon Yi-sul! ”

“I see.”

“What the hell! I took a picture up there and put it in Dantok's room. The kids are freaking out. ”

I looked at my phone and saw over 300 unread messages. I can't believe those guys who don't even call me are with Yoon Yi Seul.

“You were just goofing off on stage with your girlfriends and TOT. He's here at the club. How are you feeling?"

“It's so sudden and dazed, right now. ”

You can't be dazed. Jungwoo wanted to keep the feeling of being close to her on one stage as much as he wanted to keep her happy alone.

“What about Yoon Yi Seol? Where are you? ”

“Gone. With the manager. ”

“Did you say anything else? ”

Jungwoo shakes his head, looking at the direction of the waiting room where Yoon Lee Seol disappeared.

- See you later, guys.

If that means exactly what comes to mind, I shake my head to make it sound really ridiculous. How will we meet again if we live in a different world and have no contact at all?

‘Nonsense. ’

Jungwoo turned his eyes to Su Chan.

“Suzu, when will we get our Albany? ”

“If the director's brother asks for it, he'll give it to you right away. ”

“Let's change my clothes first. ”

As I walk towards the choreography, I see a salt representative and his assistant standing nearby.

“Mr. Jungwoo! ”

The salt representative who found Jungwoo immediately raised his hand. A smile appeared on his mouth and he walked straight to Jungwoo and held Jungwoo's hand.

“The artificial eyes were really impressive. The PR team is doing a press release, and the Internet news response is very positive. Thanks again. ”

“I just sold an existing company product. ”

A very simple principle of chemistry in nature. However, once it was used where appropriate, it was able to elicit such a positive response. This also became a lesson for Jungwoo. The fact that everyday chemistry is just as fun as the complex chemistry that experts use.

‘By the way, I'm getting tired. ’

I moved without rest without eating dinner. Jungwoo resisted yawning and asked the salt representative.

“Jules, where do I return these clothes? ”

“Just take it. This is my gift.”

“Yi, this? ”

Jungwoo swallowed his groans, gazing down at the white suit that had to be labeled as a medium-hair white hat and avant-garde.

It will be expensive, but it's not something you can wear outside. If you wear this in the same color as the researcher's robe and come to the lab, you'll be treated like a madman rather than a fashion leader.

‘Unfortunately, I have to give it to him if his dinner is like an academic conference. ’

Jungwoo thanked me anyway.

“I'll wear it well, Jules. I have to finish up here. ”

“Jungwoo doesn't have to finish. ”

Director Kim who was in the choir was next to me one day.

“You don't have to clean up since you've done enough. Su-yeon, take care of Mr. Lim Woo. ”

In fact, his face lit up when he told me to go to work together.

“Here they come! ”

When a van appeared in front of the TS Mall parking lot, the crowded fans raised their banners.

[Yoon Yi Seol's House 3! Best wishes!]

The back window of the van lowered and Yoon Yi Seol's face was revealed.

“I'll work hard on it. ”

I waved my hands at them.

“I love you, sis! ”

Yoon Iseol was angry with the big shout of a girl who appeared to be in middle school, drawing a heart with her finger. Yoon did not stop waving his hands until the van exited the parking lot and entered the road.

Soon after the fans were out of sight, Yoon Iseol closed the window and sat down properly.

After sitting in the passenger seat, the chairman opened his mouth while looking at the Yoon Iseol from the back seat, who was enthusiastic to the end.

“Hard, isn't it? Well done. ”

“That was fun.”

Yoon Lee Seol smiled at Chairman Ji.

The director thought to himself that he had seen her seemingly powerless smile.

Of course it will be difficult. From the moment I entered the waiting room to the moment I left the stage and went home. I had to be nervous the whole time and focus on the fans who didn't know where they were.

Laughing at everyone the same way. That's the life of celebrities. He felt sorry for Yoon Iseol pretending to be strong enough to know it well.

The director said, clearing his throat, watching Yoon Yi Seul.

“What are you talking about? I sent you my condolences. ”

Chairman Ji said, shrugging his shoulders.

“He ran away again today. I have to report back to Representative as is. You'll hear him say he caught a cold. Well done, intelligent. ”

“Blood.”

Director Ji felt relieved for Yoon Yi Seul, who had a very lively reaction to the sound of laughter.

“Don't worry about me. ”

“I'm worried because I keep saying that. You've been sleeping well, haven't you? ”

Yoon Lee Seol hesitated and nodded.

“Have a good sleep clinic. They say you're good there. Asleep is a sign of heartache · ·"

“Oh, I'm thirsty. Water.”

Yoon Lee Seol cut off his chief's horse and looked for a water bottle. I opened the bottle Cody gave me, drank a sip of water, and dug myself into a chair.

“I'm going to sleep. ”

The van has crossed a wide street. Chairman Ji called Yoon Yiseong because he remembered something while looking at the road that was not pushed.

“Lee Seol. Here you go. ”

“You're still awake. ”

“You know that guy in the supply room with the hot pack? Did you hear he made eyes? ”

“Chief, you haven't seen my stage, have you? He was standing next to me the whole time. ”

“Uh · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·. Choi PD wanted you to join the drama so badly. ”

Chairman Zhi coughed as if it were embarrassing.

“I told you, I can't take any more acting. ”

“I know, I said the same thing. ”

Yoon Iseol, who seemed to be resting quietly, glared at me.

“Do you know anything more about him? ”

“Choi PD? ”

Yoon Yi Seol shed an eye. Chief Ji smiled and replied.

“Was the name limited? I met and heard from Representative Guanyin Gil that he doesn't belong to the event company, he works in KG chemistry. So I'm thinking of putting artificial eyes inside the mall. I noticed you like the salt guy. ”

Yoon Lee Seol put his hand on his chest, recreating 'KG Chemistry Only Woo’. Then I remembered the last thing I said and my face turned red.

“See you again, what are you talking about? Stupid.”

I slapped my head. "

Chief Ji looked at the watch and turned his head.

“Lee Seol, you're not going to practice, right? ”

“Yes.”

“Manager Woo, go straight to your accommodations. ”

He leaned against the chair and just closed his eyes.

Clear night that doesn't seem to snow.

Yoon Lee Seol smiled pleasantly, reminiscing about the cold feeling of his hands that had melted.

I don't know why. It's been a long time.

* * *

“Just go. ”

“That's the director's order. And you don't look so good yourself. ”

Jungwoo is hiking up the hill with a hangover. I had a drink of soju at the pork belly house, so I was happy in my stomach, but I was dazed.

Applause pointed to Jungwoo's face.

“Dark circles are serious. ”

“Really?"

I was shocked to cheer for Jungwoo stumbling around.

“What's the matter with you? You didn't even drink the rebels. ”

“I see. Oh, it's spinning. You'll wake up when you walk. ”

However, even when I got to the front of the house, I couldn't feel the awkward energy. Jung puts his hand on the gate and spills out what's in his stomach.

“Woof.”

“Are you okay?"

Jung, who made it cool, gestured to Su Chan to go quickly.

“I don't think the film broke, but you're weird. ”

“I must be sleepy. I'll take care of this. You stay out of it. You know the nature of my mother. ”

“Still? I'll be right there. Today was the best. I've never been more proud to have my friend confine himself. ”

“I know what you're saying. ”

“See you around. ”

You swing your hand to send a friend and push through the gate to clear.

Queeee--

You hear a heavy iron hiss and a gritty chicken on your forearm. I searched one side of the yard for broomsticks and garbage and cleared the entrance.

‘Let's do the rest tomorrow. ’

I walked through the courtyard and into the front door.

“I'm here. ”

He takes off his shoes and enters the living room, turning his head while watching TV.

“You're late.”

“What about Mom?”

“Good night.”

Whew, he looked at Jungwoo, who was relieved, and indifferently turned to TV again. I took my clothes off in front of the bathroom and asked Jung, who was preparing the shower, towards the living room.

“Chan, do you want to go to the PC room? He shoots!”

“Until next week. Well, Pentawachi Rangem would never do it with his brother. I don't even buy you skins. ”

“Ruthless bastard. Got it.”

On Sunday, Jungwoo thought he needed to play alone, and finished the shower like lightning. I shaved my head with a towel and went up to the second floor. I was so drowsy that I fell asleep on the floor.

The next day.

Tiring, I opened my eyes with a cell phone text message.

What time is it? ’

According to the time on the phone screen, 7: 00 a.m. I didn't sleep a lot, but I felt like I slept a long time after a week.

I pressed the button to check who was texting me from this morning. I was surprised.

[When should I send you the coating?]

‘Song Bo-young? ’

[When you're comfortable.]

I send a reply, wondering if I'm going to roll further down the room, and I hear a thumping sound coming from downstairs.

Usually, you only hear the sound of these footsteps when Ms. Hong is angry.

Huh?

In Jungwoo's head, a piece of vomit stuck in the corner of the yard flashed.

"Fuck!"

Heave-ho.

“Just Woo!”

“Mom, I'm sorry. I was strangely upset yesterday. I'll just go out and clean up the yard. ”

He sprints up like a frog and falls flat on his face, with his head tilted.

“The courtyard? What do you mean? ”

“Yes? Why are you angry? ”

“Did you drink and vomit yesterday? ”

Dammit, I found something I didn't need to hear. Jungwoo stood up and asked Hong Ji-suk.

“What's wrong with you in the morning, Mom? ”

“What have you done to the gate? Why draw useless doodles even if they're junk! ”

“What?"

Jungwoo ran out the gate and laughed in vain. In the middle of a rusty gate, red marks appear just like the palm of your hand.

This is the only new corrosion. ’

What my mother misunderstood about graffiti was that it was dark as if it were fresh. I reached my left hand where it rusted, and just as I vomited in front of the gate yesterday, I saw that pose.

‘I did it so you wouldn't have to skip or hit me. ’

Further zooming in with the chemical gaze, it was a rapidly advanced oxidation reaction. Traces of sweat, iron hydroxide, and iron oxide remained consistent evidence.

“Really?"

Verification was required.

Jungwoo places his hand on the other side of the gate and focuses on the dust on the palm of his hand.

Oxygen and moisture contained in the sweat extracted dust particles from the iron and produced ions in bulk. Taking a closer look, the red elemental star that the ions were born in was attached to the iron plate, creating a yellowish, rusty earth in an instant.

This was the identity of the palm print.

‘There are quite a few reactions that can be induced by one dust star. ’

The fact that there are free electrons involved in most chemical reactions in the world. Jungwoo glances at the palm of his hand.

‘So was the aspartame at Friday's dinner. Is this really not the capacity of a simple molecular biologist? ’

I felt a little creepy because I felt like I had become a hero who hid his identity even in Hollywood movies.

At that moment, I heard the sound of turning off the slippers, and Hong Ji-sook walked from the other side of the yard.

“Just Woo. While resting today, Chan and I are spreading the oil at the gate · ·”

Hong Ji-sook stopped coming out. There was another palm print on the palm print I found earlier.

“You · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

“Uh, Mom. Let me explain. This isn't doodling. This is a spontaneous oxidation. Requirements Iron Hydroxide, Requirements Iron Oxide · · · Aah! Don't hit me on the back! ”

Whatever he's capable of, he's just a son at home. Jungwoo felt uneasy about it and fled home for a while.
