Working together
Sugar coatedYeh Shuhua became famous in South Korea in an edition of The Voice of Korea, she conquered the audience with her striking voice and her activist side, Shuhua was out and proud and despite the criticism she ended up taking second place in the program. Two years after the program, Shuhua had a consolidated career and was preparing for another comeback.
-Shuhua ssi, how about a a female love interest this time?
Shuhua looked at the diretor with a surprised expression.
-What do you mean?
-It's the first time you record a ballad so it makes sense, doesn't it?
-Wouldn't that be very controversial?
The director looked at her with a smile
-Since when do you care about that? Besides, no one expected that a song from the Japanese album would be so successful.
-That's true, who do you have in mind?
-Seo Soojin, she is out and proud too
Shuhua's manager gasped loudly but Shuhua stood still lost in her thoughts, Seo Soojin was her celebrity crush, Soojin had been the cause of Shuhua starting to like superhero movies, she is a former taekwondo practitioner and Olympic medalist who became an actress and had starred in successful films.
-I thought she was still shooting the Marvel movie
The director looked at her in surprise.
-I didn't know you were a fan of hers?
-Ha, fan? She has a giant, embarrassing crus
-SONG YUQI
Yuqi was quiet and Shuhua rolled her eyes, having her best friend as a manager could be embarrassing sometimes
-Alright...well I'm friends with her manager and she has a free schedule to record the mv, what do you think?
-I think it will be great to work with her.
-Great, I'll call the manager
The director took out his cell phone and Shuhua felt her face blush when she saw Yuqi making kissing sounds behind him.

A few days later a nervous Shuhua arrived on the filming set along with Yuqi
-Breath, I didn't think you could get any whiter but damn
-Ugi...
The loud sound of a motorcycle entering the premises echoed throughout the parking lot and their heads whipped towards the entrance, where a old-fashioned motorcycle pulled up, ridden by a person in a brown leather jacket, face hidden by a black motorcycle helmet.
-Damn, that´s hot
The rumbling in the air cut out and the person swung his legs over the side and stepped off, straightening his jacket and fixing his gaze on them as he took off his helmet
-Is that ?!
To their surprise the biker took off his helmet revealing to be Seo Soojin, the actress was in jeans, black boots, and a white shirt, with her brown leather jacket on top
- me...
Shuhua gulped as she watched Soojin get closer, her face flushing from the actress's piercing gaze
-Good morning, it's a pleasure to meet you in person Yeh Shuhua ssi
Soojin bowed and Shuhua and Yuqi reciprocated
-Nice ride
Yuqi says with a smile on her face while Shuhua just stares at her with red cheeks
-Thanks
Soojin looks anxiously at Shuhua but the singer just stares at her shyly
-You're all already here, that's great
The director's voice brought Shuhua out of the trance she was in.
-Hyungsik nim, it's a pleasure to work with all of you
-Why don't we go inside to see the set
They all nodded in agreement and followed the director into the studio and as Shuhua watched Soojin chat with the director, she wondered if she could work with the actress without seeming like an idiot.
Shuhua, Soojin and the extras listened carefully to the director and rehearsed a few scenes with smiles on their faces. Despite Soojin´s presence Shuhua tried her best to focus on the director's instructions, "For you" was one of her favorite songs and she knew that acting with Soojin would be important, especially for her LGBTQIAPN+ audience who lack representation on screen. The mv captures the ups and downs of a relationship between two young women experiencing their first love and its eventual downfall. The first scenes they recorded were of the protagonists getting to know each other at a party and their first dates, most of the scenes had extras which made Shuhua calmer even with the looks exchanged by the protagonists and the mini gay panic in the scenes where she had to hold Soojin's hand. During breaks she just watched Soojin from afar, the actress had an intense presence and as much as she wanted to talk to her Shuhua felt nervous in her presence.
Their fans sent coffee and food trucks to the set and both Shuhua and Soojin insisted on sharing them with everyone, Shuhua was distracted with her cell phone when she felt someone's presence, when she lifted her face she was startled to see that Soojin was standing in front of her
-Shuhua ssi, do you want some strawberry tanghulu?
-Oh, did they send pastries too?
-My fans are wonderful, so... tanghulu?
-I´m sorry Soojin ssi but I don't like strawberries
Immediately the smile on Soojin's face disappeared.
-Oh it's ok
Shuhua got extremely red in the face and tried to fix the situation
-Maybe there's something with chocolate, I love chocolate
Soojin scratched her arm in embarrassment
-Actually I don't like chocolate so... but I can as
-NO, I mean, there is no need Soojin ssi
-Are you sure?
-Yeah
-Alright
Soojin started walking towards the food truck and Shuhua felt like an idiot for not taking the opportunity.
-WAIT
Soojin turned her attention to Shuhua
-Why don't we take some pictures? I think our fans will enjoy seeing us together and it would be a good way to say thank you for their support
-It's a great idea
Soojin said with a big smile and Shuhua felt her heart skip a beat.
Hours later Shuhu
