YOUNG NATIONapplicants : 11
insoo
first
Status: chosen
It's been a whiile since I reviewed apps so pls be patient with me lmao. I like to write applicant teasers for several reasons. 1. Try to get a feel for the character and how they play into the story. 2. Obv I can't choose everyone but with the teaser, at least for those who don't get chosen, their efforts won't go to waste 100%. 3. If i'm portraying the character wrong, it's a good time to find out and make adjustments going forward. So do expect a teaser and a review although teasers will only be written once the app is accepted.
Anyways, below are the statuses:
accepted - there are little to no errors or adjustments I need for your app
pending - you have errors/adjustments that need to be made
reviewing - I'm getting to your review asap!
I'll provide my honest thoughts about your app and if I have any suggestions in mind, I'll list it as well. If you would prefer for your review to be sent via pm, just lemme know!

Status: ACCEPTED
REVIEW : Hi Maggie! Thank you so much for being my first applicant and all the support you have given my story! I appreciate you :) Okay, anyways onto the actual review!
First, I'm dying over the mental image of a fresh grad Huisoo moving back into the house and is just astounded by the amount of chaos going around lol. Or how he's cursing under his breath everytime another sibling charges into his room for something when he's just trying to write a damn paper haha. I do have quite a few ideas of how Huisoo can playing into the story and his love story with Yunho would def be fun to write lmao. also thanks for adding some of the other plotlines into your app!
A few things i would like clarifications on though. So considering Huisoo's age, does he not work? Does he have any experience working? How does he get by daily life esp if he has to pay for school loans and rent when he was getting his bachelor's and masters? Also just to double check, is Huisoo trying to get his PHD? Bc if he was a PHD student, they get stipends from the schools which can explain why he's not currently working but yeh, I still need to know how he got by in life. Does he just ask his parents or Insoo for money? What did Huisoo study for undergrad and grad? What is he researching rn? Does he have any idea? Also can you elaborate on the interactions part between Huisoo and Yunho? How do they speak/act around each other day to day? This part should be the bulk of their love story tbh.
Thanks for the suggestions, I would def love to add those into the story if Huisoo is chosen hehe. And from my limited understanding of Korean, Huisoo would be typed as 희수. The spelling you have down is "hoesoo" lmao. In conclusion, there are some things I need clarifications on for Huisoo so he will be pending for now. Again, thank you so much for applying, I'll write a teaser for Huisoo as soon as everything is fixed hehe.
UPDATE : Thanks for making the necessary changes, Huisoo is accepted!
TEASER :
"What?!" Huisoo shouted in exasperation as he grabbed the stuffed animal one of the younger siblings had bestowed him during his painful researching journey. Seriously, what was he thinking when he thought he could write his research proposal at home. The spawning ground for devious pranks, constant questions about what the hell he's doing at the computer instead of playing games with the fam, and the endless pesters of his siblings. He only opened his computer for 10 minutes, and 3 siblings have already welcomed themselves in against his request.
Insoo held both hands up defensively when he saw Huisoo grab the stuffed animal on his desk, only to see the younger sigh and put it back down, when he realized who it was
"Oh, it's you hyung."
"I see the rascals were very excited about welcoming you home." Insoo cracked a grin, motioning towards Huisoo's bed that was in disarray because one sibling used it as a jumping bed, and the books scattered across the floor. Huisoo couldn't help but sigh again.
"You know, I think you could use a vacation." Insoo continued when Huisoo remained silent.
"Where are you thinking?"
"None other than our ancestral home of course! You don't really remember Nasan right? The fresh seafood, the boardwalk, the little carnival!!" Insoo was beaming from ear to ear advertising Nasan.
"I'm not sure. I still have this whole paper to write-"
Insoo expressions immediately changed and the eldest was near tears. "Huisoo, pleaseeeeeeee! I want to take all the siblings there but there's no way I can handle 6 demons all by myself!" Insoo clasped his hands together and stared Huisoo down. Huisoo sighed for the 5th time that day.
"When are we going?"
inna

Status: ACCEPTED
REVIEW : hello hello britz! thank you so much for applying and supporting this story of mine as well! also junghwa as a fc omg yesss. anyways, onto the review!
I kind of have this mental image where Inna is forcing kisses on the sibs at one part until someone touches her food and she releases her inner demon and become catty af lmao. also loved the lil bickering scenarios between her and some of the siblings haha. i'm typing this after a quick glance of yongho's info but omg. a doctor and an adventurist?? i can already imagine all the times when inna goes on one of her jolly lil adventures and up getting hurt which leads to her crying to youngho about her little injuries. ofc youngho is always reprimanding her at first and then eventually he's just like ugh, again?? come here... ok anyways i read through their love story and they're cute af omg. i'm weak for extroverts getting introverts to open up to them kind of cliches tbh. i'm doing this review at 4am so pls don't mind me and my ramblings lol. anyways, i don't see any errors so inna is accepted! just a quick thing tho, sociable and friendly mean the same thing.
TEASER :
"Good evening everyone! For today's mukbang, I have 3 plates of fried chicken, one is soy garlic, another is cheese flavored, and the last one is gochujang flavored. Of course, since I'm eating fried chicken, beer is the best partner. Please don't drink if you are not over 18 friends!"
Inna grabbed her chopsticks and the chicken was midway to when Insoo popped her door open, completely disregarding her CURRENTLY FILMING sign. Inna paused the recording quickly, turning back to Insoo with a look that can kill.
Insoo paid the girl no mind as he took a step closer to see what she was eating. "Fried chicken again??" Are your viewers not tired of seeing you eat the same thing?"
"Well I got 1 million subbies from eating that fried chicken okay. What do you want anyways oppa, I'm busyyyyyyyy!!" Inna pointed to her paused video, and the sign on her now opened room door.
"I just thought you would appreciate a new content idea! What about visiting the town that Insoo Oppa came from?"
"I'm not interested." Inna cut Insoo off immediately, trying to shove him out of her room. " "Wait wait wait!" Insoo blocked Inna from closing the door. "But you haven't had the biggest, juiciest scallops fresh from the sea. Or the soft abalones? Do you know all the food you will be missing out on!!?!?!"
Insoo pulled out his phone to show Inna some of the restaurants and food he had saved on his phone from Nasan. Inna eyes immediately began to sparkle at the mention of food.
"If its for food, you know I'm always down oppa!! Just let me know when we're leaving okay??"
JINSOL
FIFTH
Status: Accepted
REVIEW : Hi Sia!! Thank you loads for applying and supporting this story of mine! Also quick glance and spotted Minhyun AND JR?! <3333 A married JR with his cute wife omg. I'm soft already lmao. Anyways, I will be reviewing your app asap! Okay, on to the review! Also, your layout is so prettyy omg!
Honestly, I love the sound of Jinsol! Even from just the prof icon you chose, Jinsol feels like that gentle soul and somewhat even awkward lmao. He fits the image I have of pisces as well haha. Minhyun suits Jinsol perfectly tbh. Also I'm soft at the thought where Jinsol listens to the eldest so much bc he wants to make up for being somewhat of a pain when he was young AND his response to the last interview q??! uwu. Ty for adding some of the other sibs in as well! Yongjoon and sangeun, hyemi and jinsol are adorable omg but tbh at this time, I can't see hyemi developing like any romantic feelings for jinsol? It just seems like she takes him as a lil bro with the headpats, thinking he's cute when he's awks, etc. nvm i lied lmao. i just got to the end of their interactions pls disregard what i just said lol. and tbh i couldn't tell this was your 1st app in a while so you have nothing to worry about haha. i found no errors so jinsol is accepted! again, thanks for supporting the story!
TEASER :
Jinsol greeted the staff at Young Seoul politely before finding his place in the restaurant's herb garden. He the plant leaves to gauge when was the last time they got watered since his last shift.
They were rather dry so Jinsol picked up the spray bottle, cruising through the small garden to care for the plants. His mind wandered back to a certain teacher assistant during his college career, although his thoughts were quickly interrupted.
"Jinsol!!" Jinsol looked up to seee the eldest Young sibling stading at the doorway of the garden with a boyish grin and sparkling eyes. Seeing that he got Jinsol's attention, Insoo continued. "Remember when you told me you had thoughts to move to Nasan? I want to bring the whole fam to Nasan for the summer."
"Well this would be a good chance to see how Nasan is..."
"Well this would be a good chance to see how Nasan is..."
"Right?! There's plenty of plants and greens there that I'm sure you can never find in the city. Imagine all that nature! The natural type!"
"You know I have nothing else to do anyways hyung so I don't really see any reason to not go."
"That's the spirit!" Insoo galloped away before Jinsol could say anything else, which didn't all that matter since Jinsol had nothing else to add. Jinsol did smile at the thought of seeing new plants and learning about the place his eldest siblings grew up at though. Jinsol was actually excited about the trip and probably the only person other than Insoo.
JEONGYEONG

Status: ACCEPTED
REVIEW : Hello Izzy, thanks a ton for applying and for your interest in my story! I'll get to your review soon! But doyeonnnn?!? yes pls! <3333 onto your review!
First off, I like the impression I get of Jeongyeong and the way you wrote her personality! However, when I read her personality section alone, I couldn't get a good read of her character until I dived into the other parts. Which still left me some questions, such as why is she so bent on being secretive. This was answered in the last point of the trivia. But the purpose of the personality section is so that I could get a good read of her from that section alone while her personality should trickle into the other sections, rather than me learning more about her through all her sections, than the actual personality section. So pls expand some more in the personality section like how is she friendly? Calculative? Impulsive? I got to see how she's friendly in the love interest section lol. But again, I should know all this just by reading the personality section alone.
I'm so soft about her succulents omfg. and the fact that 5th sib got her one!! also awesome touch about her birthday, i love it lol. i adore the love story section, not only bc jinyoung but jinyoung lmao... they're so damn cute tho omg my heart. also tis weak is tearing at the interview section :^). jeongyeon's r/s with insoo is so wholesome eeeps.
i def see the Nasan trip being a healing time for Jeongyeong! I'm attacked with so much feels thinking of how the siblings can bring yeong back up. I really did enjoy your app and esp that love story lmao. The only thing is, I'd like her personality section to be more thorough/explained and bc the personality section is one of the most important parts of the app, I'm going to put u under pending for now. Thank you for applying, I'll move you over to accepted as soon as you elaborate!
UPDATES: Thanks for elaborating on her personality section! Jeongs is accepted!
TEASER :
"dO YOU have any plans for THE SUMMER?!" Jeongyeong saw the message flash across her phone from Insoo, picking it up immediately. Damn, did she miss her siblings.
"Nope. Why?"
"The fam is taking a summer trip together to Nasan! I was wondering if you have time to join the fun!"
"It's because none of you guys can cook and you just don't want to starve isn't it." Jeongyeong obviously knew Insoo didn't mean that, or maybe just partially meant it in that way but it was nice to mess around with the eldest.
"Yes. LMAO. But I have fun times and good older brother loving for my dongsaeng in return for your hardwork!"
"I could use a break right now. I'll be there."
"Is something wrong? If you're stressed about school or boys or whatever, you know you can always tell me right??"
"Yeah I know, I'm okay though. Don't worry about me.And now none of you guys have to worry about your stomachs during the trip either lol."

REVIEW : Hi alex! TYSM for applying to this story of mine as well and all the interest you have shown my afs!! I realy do appreciate it :) I'll get to review asap! Your fc is so pretty!!! Anyways, onto the review!
Ngl, I usually prefer fc with a lot of gifs but thinking back to my usual story formats, I don't use them anyways so just giving me her ig handle is completely fine. She's really pretty and I think she fits the plotline very well! I enjoyed reading about Soyi and the mentions of her parents! I don't recall the parents being mentioned in other apps which was understandable but it was a nice difference. also thank you for talking about soyi's r/s with each sibling! it'll make it easier for me if soyi was chosen. Hyunsik and soyi are so fricking cute and i love the fact that he is so patient with her and means it, unlike someone smh. Quick q, Soyi and Hyunsik are born the same year but are diff ages?
I can still see Soyi as the 4th sibling so I don't think you strayed too far. And her story with her ex is okay, it wasn't tooo dramatic that it will be weird within the story. I'm glad the story got more attention too lol. I remember when I first released it and couldn't get more than 7 subbies omg. Anyways, I didn't see any errors besides that one lil thing about their bdays so Soyi is accepted!
TEASER :
"Who the does this bastard think he is? How dare he accuse meof cheating?!" Soyi stormed out of her apartment building cursing her lungs out.
Jaewoo should have considered himself lucky that all he got was a punch to the face. Soyi hailed down a taxi right away in case Jaewoo recollected himself and chased after her.
Her phone chimed again with another text notification. And it was still from Insoo. Thinking it might be urgent since he was spamming her the past 10 mins, Soyi finally opened the texts.
"The fam is headed to Nasan right now, are you not going to come? I can pay for your airplane tickets!" Soyi could almost cry because of all times, why did Insoo have to spam text her tonight? It caused her boyfriend to think she was cheating and the fact that Jaewoo even accused her, made Soyi confirm something. If Jaewoo didn't even have the basic decency to trust her character, he was not the man for her.
"I'm on my way." Soyi replied quickly then shut off her phone, wanting some time to herself before she is embroiled in the chaos of her family again.
"To the airport please."

REVIEW : Hi Shu! TYSM for applying for my story and your expressed interest! Also Lucy is so pretty omg AND sanha as l/i??! omg yes pls. anyways onto your review!
Inhae was so cute to read about and I love how much the siblings mean to her! Her relationship/thoughts/feeligns for her fam was really something that I wanted to write about in the story. I die a little at the fact that her siblings keep bringing up her fanfic days lmao and how they'll constantly push her into uncomfy situations wth cute boys mainly to be annoying and then a small part out of concern lmao. I also like that Sanha was originally born in Nasan and frequently visits. Her relationship with Sanha is also really cute! I don't recall seeing anything that I have questions about so Inhae is acepted! Again, thank you for applying!
TEASER :
Inhae sighed again as she saw the big failing red mark on her latest creative writing assignment and got up from her seat. Sitting here was only going to break her down some more so Inhae went to seek a sibling, any sibling, to bother.
She ended up walking right into Insoo's room since he was being the loudest.
"What are you up to oppa?"
"Oh, I'm trying to plan some things for Nasan. Wait, did I ask you about Nasan yet? There's too many of you, I can't keep up haha."
"No, I don't believe you have. What about Nasan? You're going on a trip in the summer?"
"No, we are taking a trip this summer to none other than Nasan! You're definitely going to come right? Most of the others have confirmed, I just have to recall who they were." Insoo laughed as he returned to staring at his computer, typing up some items to bring.
Nasan? The eldest two sibling's hometown? Inhae recalls the sparkle in Insoo's eyes whenever he speaks of Nasan and the nature it possesses. Maybe a new environment would help her writer's block? Also, she wasn't about to be left behind by the others.
"Of course I'll tag along. I can't let you guys have all the fun right?"

TEASER :
Saemi scoffed at the comment about having her jaw shaved. Definitely?! Who is this er to be so confident? First of all, they were wrong ok. Second, DOES HER CHIN LOOK FAKE? I think tf not.
As Saemi continued to dissect that one negative comment she came across, a poor soul came into her room at the wrong time. It was none other than Insoo.
"Hey Saemi, the whole fam has decided to go to Nasan for the summer. They have the BEST food and the BEST amsement park!"
"Oppa, come over here!!" Saemi disregarded what Insoo said. "Does my chin look fake? Look at what this person commented."
Insoo could already guess what it said and just responded. "Saemi-ah, the person was probably just jealous of your superior genes and don't have the chin you have. Why waste your time on these comments when you don't even know who's saying it."
"Do you think maybe its the highlighter I've been using? Maybe I put too much?"
"Now you've lost me sis. All I'm asking is if you wanna come with for the fam summer vacay."
"Where are we going?"
"Nasan. The best garlic shrimp I have tasted in my life was from Young Nasan. Not to mention the carnival on the boardwalk. Imagine riding the ferris wheel while looking out into the ocean-"
"Oppa, you had me at best garlic shrimp. Just give me a month's advance notice so that I can pack."
Insoo stared at her incredulously. "The trip is in 2 weeks. Good luck packing." And Insoo high tailed out of the room, leaving Saemi's shouting in his wake.

REVIEW : Hi Silvi!! tysm for your yur interest and support for this story of mine as well. So terribly sorry for such a delayed review, let's get right to it. Honestly, Shiwoo was really fun to read. I love that he actually does try to relay his love for his siblings via communication only to be taken as a joke. i just imagine him being like, "i hope you know i appreciate you insoo hyung." "how about you tell me that when you didn't just blackmail 50k won from me" or the sbilings cooing at him when he tells them how much he loves them. then moves on to try and burn the kitchen down bc he's had enough of this bs. idk the face claim well but i think he really does fit shiwoo lol. alsso thank you for adding interactions with the siblings, it'll really help me in the long run if shiwoo was chosen. shiwoo and ahrong were too cute for words, that is all lmao. anyways, shiwoo is accepted. tysm for submitting him!
TEASER : A text exchange between Shiwoo and best bud, Woosang
"I still can't believe they kidnapped me!!!"
"Well, it would be unlawful if they left you at home alone."
"That's besides the ing point Woo! What about Everland? What about all of our plans???"
"Maybe you'll come back before summer ends and we can do everything we planned to."
"Doesn't seem likely with the sinister grin Insoo hyung has on his face right this moment."
"I'm scared for you buddy."
"If you never hear back from me, you know what happened."
"That Nasan doesn't have wifi or signal?"
"I'm traveling to a remote town, not time traveling back to second eldest's fave time period."
"Okay, good point."
"That they have overworked this poor maknae beyond the point of redemption."
"I would hardly call washing a few dishes, death."
"Seriously, I was expecting some more emotion from you Woo. Your best friend is being dragged off to who knows where for child labor!"
"Nasan is right next to Busan. You'll be fine. Maybe if you keep checking, you'll find someone we know in Nasan. Or you'll make a new friend. "
HYEIN
SIXTH
Status: accepted
REVIEW : Hello Mari, tysm for applying and your support! I'm really sorry about such a late review but leggoo. Wow hyein is a character lmao. but honestly I can relate to her so much? the temperamental side anyways lol. i'm so glad that you enjoyed applying to the applyfic and was able to collab with so many people! i wasn't reallly expecting that to happen in the story when i first released this but it's such an awesome side benefit. I can def learn from you on that aspect. i really like her strong passion for cooking stemming from her family. it's so ing cute honestly. also tysm for adding all the the interactions she has with the siblings, it'll really help me out if hyein was chosen. idk ateeze well either, but her love story with wonchul was fun to read and cute. they really embody the opposites attract trope lol. anyways, i didn't see anything that needed adjustments so hyein is accepted! ty for submitting her!
TEASER : "How's school out in Japan? How are you?" Was the first things Insoo asked when Hyein picked up the call.
"It's good. I'm alright." Hyein was accustomed to Insoo calling in every now and then to check up on her. She was always speeding through the call with these answers to get back to cooking. School really was fine. And she was also alright. More than alright even. But somehow, this time, Hyein didn't really believe her own words. And neither did Insoo.
"I booked a summer trip for the whole fam."
"Why would you do something like that without asking us about our opinions?!," Hyein can feel her temper flare at the lack of consultation from Insoo before deciding her summer plans for her. "What if we had plans? What if I was taking summer classes?"
"Okay, so do you have anything planned for summer?"
"Well no- not yet,"
"Okay, so there's nothing to argue about then. See you in Nasan, I'll forward your plane ticket!"
"Just so you know, I'm only coming so that you guys don't tarnish the family name."
"Trust me when I say I believe you."
"But the next time you pull a stunt like this, I will not just sit back and go along with it."
"It's because the fam misses you Hye."
"Is it me or my cooking?"
"Gotta stop, drop, and roll. Bye!"
"Who the hell even says like that anymore?", would've been Hyein's reply but Insoo had alreayd hung up.

JOOWON
Second
Status: ACCEPTED
REVIEW : Hey Lia! Biggest thanks for applying and i'm v sorry for such a late review. Young second and young 5th had the more "gentler, passive" personality when I came up with their plotlines so it's completely ok that Joowon is siimilar to young fifth in some ways. It's also nice that he's considering marriage and plans to propose during the summer, i think it'll be very cute to write about! Joowon did give off a good older brother, the type to get pushed around and taken advantage of by the siblings so I do think he fits the young second plotline. Thank you for adding all the relationships he has with all the siblings! It really helps to visualize them better! Anyways, I didn't see recall seeing anything wrong so Joowon is accepted! Again, sorry for the late reply but tysm for your interest and application!
TEASER : "Is that a ring?!" Insoo shouted as soon as Joowon sat down next to him at the bar. Insoo's grinned from ear to ear, eyes completely disappearing at the thought of seeing one of his siblings finally getting married! Joowon opened the ring box, staring at the ring idly but nodded at Insoo's question.
"So what's the big plan???? Do you need any of us to do anything? Rent out a plane to write will you marry me Ahyeon in the sky? Get someone to rent out a restaurant?" Insoo blabbered every proposal idea that came spilling into his brain. Thinking up wedding and proposal ideas for his siblings have been a lifetime job and he is happy to announce they will not be going to waste.
"Right.. About that..-" Joowon mumbled slightly then sighed. "I have no idea how to propose to Ahyeon. Maybe I'll just wait for the moment that feels perfect to propose?"
"Yeh... NO. Let's not talk about the fact that you need your planned to a perfect T, but this a marriage proposal! Ahyeon is probably hoping for some glamorous proposal that reveals your love to her, to the world!"
You think I don't know that, hyung? That's why I'm having such a hard time planning it!" Joowon heaved out.
"You know what would help!?" Joowon didn't bother answering. "A new scenery! A trip to Nasan! Back ot our ancestral home! There are so many romantic hotspots you can propose to Ahyeon at!"
"Okay, so what's your actual motive?" Joowon quirked an eyebrow at Insoo. Joowon knows Insoo likes to go the extra mile to help his sbilings out. But also, there were so many other romantic places on earth that Joowon wondered why Insoo specified Nasan.
Instead of answering, Insoo clasped his hands together in a begging position and stared at Joowon with the best puppy eyes he could give. "I really need you there with me for this family summer trip. Please do not leave me alone with those rascals."
"So what's the big plan???? Do you need any of us to do anything? Rent out a plane to write will you marry me Ahyeon in the sky? Get someone to rent out a restaurant?" Insoo blabbered every proposal idea that came spilling into his brain. Thinking up wedding and proposal ideas for his siblings have been a lifetime job and he is happy to announce they will not be going to waste.

REVIEW : hiya thea! tysm for sending Chulsoo in! I'm super sorry for such a delayed review! I enjoyed reading about Chulsoo! He's kinda like the cool uncle that ends up getting ted on by his future neices/nephews and then end up chasing them with the scariest face expessions to get revenge lol. that's the image i have of him anyways. he did give off young second feels when i first read about him but he's def different from the other siblings once i got through the personality section. do you mind listing chulsoo's traits at the top of the personality section? just so it'll be easier for me when i'm writing the story. alos thanks for writing the relationships chul has with most of the siblings! his love story with hyoyoung is so cute lmaooo. i also enjoyed reading about hoyoung but can you add more info about his daughter, as i'm sure she'll be a recurring character in their relationship? these are just minor things though so chulsoo is still accepted! again, tysm for your interest and application.
TEASER : Chulsoo sighed when he entered his penthouse, tossing his bag of instant ramen on the kitchen counter before turning around to come face to face with Insoo. Chulsoo's shriek would have caused an uproar if he wasn't living in the massive area all by himself, secluded from everyone else in the building.
"What in poor Sprocket's eyelids are you doing here? It's 1am hyung!"
"Who's Sprocket? And what's wrong with their eyelids?" Insoo inquired before jumping up from the couch to open Chulsoo's fridge. Insoo took out a bag of takeouts that in his mind, were more healthy than all of the instant noodle Insoo knew Chulsoo would be eating. "Came to give you jajangmyun and tangsuyuk. I legit just put it in the fridge 2 mins ago so it should still be hot."
Chulsoo put on a touched expression, spreading his arms wide, ready to pounce on Insoo with a giant bear hug. And possibly confess how much Chulsoo really does love the eldest young sibling.
But Insoo just tossed the whole bag into Chulsoo's arms, before taking a seat next to Chulsoo at his dining table. "While I'll be eternally grateful that you brought me delivery, what is the real reason you're here?"
"Wow, I went through literal and bad kneecaps for you damn rascals to question my intention everytime. You guys all ." Insoo whined as he watched Chulsoo dig into his meal.
"Main point, brother." Chulsoo said between huge mouthfuls of noodles.
Insoo swung his arm back, ready to smack the insolent idiot in the head but put his arm down when Chulsoo began to choke on the noodles because he was slurping them too quick.
Instead, Insoo roled his eyes, mumbling about how much of an idiot Chulsoo is. "We are having a family summer vacation. So of course, I'm going to expect you in attendance." Chulsoo drank the water that Insoo grabbed for him, ready to speak, only for Insoo to cut him.
"Everything has been paid for in full. You just have to go enjoy good food, good views, good vibes, good times." The smile on Insoo's face got increasingly wider.
"Fine." Was Chulsoo's only response because holy , who made this sweet and sour pork? It should be illegal to be this good!
