             Was it two years ago? I think so.

             Was it before the summer vacation of sophomore year when Kim Minjeong finally took off her freshman shirt and looked more like a college student? I don’t remember what event it was, but it was a group drinking party. I had a boyfriend from another department at the time. We’ve dated for quite a long time, and it was to the point where my boyfriend’s face was recognizable to the students in my department. It was a drinking party where silly jokes were passed to and fro. It was just before summer vacation, so everyone was dressed in short sleeves and revealing skin. It was a cluttered, sticky, and dim bar with fast-tempo songs, drunken noises, and a light air conditioner. The drunkenness and enthusiasm of the college bar in the middle of summer was slightly tacky.

             It was when it was quite late into the night. A friend asked about my boyfriend as if it was a greeting. I answered that we were doing well when she asked how we were doing. She told me I should introduce him later, so I agreed. I nodded to that conversation, and it was while I was heading out to take a smoke when it happened. Kim Minjeong, who had been sitting beside me passing anju from the next table to my plate and pouring me alcohol, followed me.

             A dirty smoking area in front of the bar. I pulled out a cigarette as I did many times before and rummaged through my pocket but there was no lighter. I swear I had overlapped the cigarette pack with it just before. That was why I grabbed the cluster and came out but where was it? I was thinking about it when Kim Minjeong held out a lighter. Did she raise the flame to the highest limit? There was a blaze of fire as if it would burn my bangs off. I looked at her in surprise as Kim Minjeong said, “I like you, unnie.” So, I pulled my head back and said, “Do you not like my bangs? It almost got burned.” Then Kim Minjeong said, “I am confessing right now but that’s your answer?” That’s why I answered back that. After I placed the tip of the cigarette that I was biting onto towards the kid’s frightful flame. “I’m scared of things like this. My boyfriend is scared of it too.”

             I inhaled a long breath of the cigarette. Fizz. A small noise sounded at the end of the cigarette. Even though there were red spots burning at the end of the cigarette, the kid didn’t extinguish the lighter. The right thing to do was to turn it off after lighting the joint, but Kim Minjeong didn’t. She continued to hold the ghastly flame until I turned away and took two puffs. Come to think of it, she was like that. Kim Minjeong was a fiery kid just like that flame.

TL;DR: I'm back with another translated fanfic. This is a very popular Korean winrina fanfic (I consider it one of the top/best). All credits to Keycab님. I hope you enjoy! 

I followed the same format of the original story. This means that the story layout is identical with some exceptions. Whenever there was dialogue, I placed quotes around it. Like the last translated story, I will place cultural context at the bottom to help people who aren't familiar with Korean culture understand the story better. If you are confused about something or curious, comment below! I will do my best to answer those questions. Some text is not translated word for word because it would not make sense in English. If it still sounds off, please do tell me in the comments! I want to provide the best translation as possible so if it's translated in a confusing manner please let me know. Moreover, this is translated in first person because translating in third person gets difficult for me because English requires pronouns whereas Korean does not.
