(2014)

Youngbae pulled up to the pavement, ready to show off his parallel parking skills. “You see, the tip is that you angle yourself correctly.” He continued as he looked behind his shoulder.

“I still don’t need to get a licence.” I told him, shrugging my shoulders.

“Well, when you want to surprise your wife, it would help to have a licence to drive instead of annoying others!” He teased me as he started reversing the car.

“Usually the video can be filmed in 2 days, not 4 days! She has been working very hard and I want to surprise her!” I protested.

Youngbae chuckled as he switched the ending off. “It must be nice! To be married!” He smirked as he looked over at me.

“Are you thinking that seriously so soon about Min Hyorin?” I asked, surprised at the suddenness.

Youngbae’s eyes widened with shock at the weight of his words.

He had only met Hyorin about 3 months ago in November for a music video filming, and the two since then have been seeing each other.

“Well… I guess that I am dating for marriage.” Youngbae chuckled as he bashfully ran his hand through his hair.

“There is nothing wrong with that.” I smiled, putting a hand on his shoulder in comfort.

“But hey, who knows! Right now, Hyorin and I are just getting to know one another and taking it slowly.”

“And I’m glad. I am very happy for you. You really deserve someone nice to come home to after a busy schedule.”

“That is probably the most happiest thing I can wish for. Maybe even two people waiting at home for me.” Youngbae chuckled.

“Try three people!” I laughed thinking of the cuddles I receive from my family.

“It is a shame Inbok and Inhye are not here.” Youngbae noted as he looked at his back seat, those babies were at the Halmeoni’s.

“Dae. Dara said it was a really big production, I wouldn’t want to overwhelm either her or the babies.” I told him.

“I am actually quite excited to see their set.” Youngbae admitted as he unbuckled his seatbelt.

“And knowing Dara she would love some kimbap!” I agreed whilst taking my seatbelt off and opening the door.

I had enlisted Youngbae to come along and surprise 2NE1 as they finished up filming for their new MV Come Back Home. Dara was constantly tired as she came home, she wouldn’t reveal details, only that it was almost like a movie instead of the traditional MV.

We braced the cold as we made our way towards the warehouse building. The cold wind reminded me of the day we filmed Love Song, in just suits. The thought just brought a shiver to me as Youngbae opened the door into building.

Inside was filled with people and noise as numerous things happened at the same time. “Omo! TOP-sshi, Taeyang-sshi!” A staff member gasped as he noticed us, “Come to the set!” He beckoned to follow him.

Youngbae shook his head and we proceeded to follow the staff member who led us to the set. It was a lavish white dinner setting with Bom at centre stage on a platform. She looked powerful in a full black outfit, standing out from the setting. “Yah! There are intruders on the set!” She teased as she pointed at us ruining the take.

“Cut! Yah! Park Bom-sshi!” The director, Dee Shin-nim, laughed as he turned to see us following the staff member.

Dee Shin-nim bowed his greeting at us and directed us to some seats n
