Before my update I want to share something that happened last August 31. That day when I first log in to AFF, I have notification of New Story Updates, New Subscribers and New Story Comments.

I was like… I think this has something to do with my FRR update. Probably 2 to 3 new subscribers and around 10 story comments.

When I clicked the “New Story Comments” I was surprised to see 27 comments for FRR. It’s the first time I had that unless I won’t log in for few days. But I was even surprised upon reading the comments. Other than comments regarding the current chapter, I’ve seen…

My reaction was… My Fanfic is featured? Really? So what I did was clicked "Foreword" and only then that I realized that huge increase in number of Upvotes and Subcribers. I also noticed the “Yellow Star” after the title.

But I’m still not convinced. So, I went to the “Featured” section and this is what I saw…

That’s when I’m finally convinced that my fanfic is really featured in AFF. I don’t know “How” and “Why” but I’m really happy. Reading comments from non Dooley fans also surprised me. I'm happy to see other fandoms fans appreciate it getting feautured.

Thank you for all your support that’s why "From Real to Reel Life?" is now one of the Featured fanfics in AFF. Not only that it’s also the first “YongShin” fanfic to be featured in AFF.

Now, as my way of saying thank you. I present to you the 5th Chapter of From Real to Reel Life? Version 2.0

“Let’s Continue The Journey Of Our Dooley Couple’s Real to Reel Moments”

 

Little Tin Drums, Shin Hye’s Parent Restaurant (15Feb14)

Most of Shin Hye’s guests left already and there are no customers also. She stayed at the restaurant to help her parents until closing time.

She noticed the cakes that her fans gave her and one of them caught her attention.

Shin Hye’s POV: They still support us until now. If only all are like them then it won’t be hard for us anymore.

Then she heard the chimes sound indicating that the door of the restaurant opens.

Shin Hye: We are already close. Who could it be?

She was surprised to see the man standing in front of her.

Min Hyuk: Hello Noona!

Shin Hye: Min Hyuk! What are you doing here?

Min Hyuk: I heard you have a celebration for your birthday tonight that’s why I’m here.

Shin Hye: But…

He looked around the restaurant.

Min Hyuk: Am I too late already?

Shin Hye: Actually most of the guests left already and we are about to close now.

Min Hyuk: Really? I should have come early. If not for…

Then one more guy came… The maknae and certified Dooley Supporter… Jung Shin.

Jung Shin: Hello Noona! Happy Birthday!

Min Hyuk: Yah! I should be the first one to greet Noona. She said that on her fan meeting.

Jung Shin: Well I beat you first. Kekeke.

Shin Hye: It doesn’t matter who greet me first. What’s important is both of you are here.

Her mother then approached them.

Mrs. Park: You can take that side Shin Hye. We won’t be opening tomorrow so it’s ok to extend tonight.

The two younger CN Blue boys greet Shin Hye’s mother.

Min Hyuk: I’ve been eager to eat here for a long time. If only I’m not busy after our press conference that time I could have join them.

Mrs. Park: I hope you will like it. I know your father also served good food in his restaurant.

Min Hyuk: I’m sure I will Aunty.

Jung Shin: I will eat a lot Aunty.

Mrs. Park: Aigoo! You two are so adorable. Enjoy the food.

They all went to the area where Shin Hye’s guests also had their dinner.

Jung Shin: Noona, aren’t you going to ask about Hyung?

She smiles though it’s obvious that she just force it.

Shin Hye: I know he won’t come so I’m not asking anymore.

Jung Shin: But Noona…

Shin Hye: I understand him Jung Shin. He is just trying to avoid issues about us.

The two boys want to say more but they know that their Noona is right.

Everything was set when the door of the restaurant opens again.

Shin Hye: Hong Ki? Jong Hoon? What are you doing here?

Jong Hoon: Well…

He noticed Min Hyuk trying to say something but didn't understand it.

Hong Ki: I forgot something.

Shin Hye: Eh? What?

Min Hyuk: Is it your phone?

Hong Ki: Deh!

Shin Hye’s POV: He forgot his phone? That’s a bit strange. He never left his phone. And he is not feeling well. He should be home now and rest.

Jong Hoon: What are you doing here?

Jung Shin: We are here for Noona’s birthday celebration.

Jong Hoon: Only the two of you?

Shin Hye: It’s not safe for Yong to be here.

Jong Hoon: And you think the two of them being here is safe? It’s more suspicious to see them here instead of Yong Hwa whom you claim is your close friend.

Hong Ki: Jong Hoon-ah… So they won’t suspect anything let’s just stay first and join them.

Jong Hoon: I don’t really understand it. I’ll just go first. You can stay if you want.

He left them.

Hong Ki: I’m sorry about what he did.

Shin Hye: I understand.

Hong Ki decided to stay and try to make the atmosphere happy. But it is obvious that Shin Hye is missing someone.

When Shin Hye left to get some drinks for them, Hong Ki asked them.

Hong Ki: Is he coming?

Jung Shin: We are not sure Hyung.

Hong Ki: He knows you are here?

Min Hyuk: Deh. But we didn't tell him that we asked you to come back.

Hong Ki: I thought the reason why you are signalling something to Jong Hoon is because he will come and surprise Shin Hye.

Jung Shin: Ani. We just don’t want Noona to feel sad.

Hong Ki: Is he really that worried about the scandal that’s why he didn’t come?

Jung Shin: He is just concern about Noona. We all know how some fans are cruel to her sometimes.

Min Hyuk: Also, Hyung is always being followed. There’s one time that we saw some fans already in front of our dorm.

Hong Ki: Really?!

The two boys nod.

Hong Ki: They really want to know about him.

Just then Hong Ki received a message. He smiles after reading. Then he shows it to the two boys. They are all smiling when Shin Hye returns.

Shin Hye: Why are you all smiling?

Hong Ki: Nothing! We are just happy that we are here to celebrate Mi Nam’s Birthday.

Min Hyuk: Ani! It’s Eun Sang’s birthday.

Jung Shin: Eun Sang? Mi Nam? I think it is Gyu Won’s birthday.

Shin Hye: Aigoo! None of you is right. It’s Shin Hye.

The three boys looked at each other and smile.

 

Park’s Residence (16Feb14)

Shin Hye is already at home and just finished chatting with her friends. There’s something in their chat that she had fun with and decided to share it on her twitter account.

 

[16Feb14 - 11:53PM] @ssinz: "Gorapaduck Problem" become popular these days right? 'Ggobugi Problem" also appeared.. I shared it with kakaotalk room O1A5 friends.

 

[16Feb14 - 11:55PM] @ssinz: All of five friends got wrong answers.lol So we all changed the profile pic to Ggobugi. Five living Ggobugies lol. So funny when my friends send messages on the O1A5 talk room. Belly laughing..lol So~~ funny!!

 

[16Feb14 - 11:57PM] @ssinz: The "Ggobugi Problem" > You have to change profile pic to Ggobugi for 3 days. "You took money 3000₩ to stationery and you bought 1800₩ priced sharp pencil. How much is the change?" Got wrong answer? Then change your pic for 3 days. I leave it to your conscience. [17Feb14 – 12:00AM] @ssinz: The answer is 200₩! You just took 3000₩ and wouldn't pay 3000₩ for the pencil.ㅎ You would pay 2000₩ and got 200₩ for the change. I saw all of you who wrote 1200₩ for the answer lol. On your conscience, one who wrote 1200₩ change your profile pic to Ggobugi ㅋㅋㅋ [17Feb14 – 12:03AM] @ssinz: I was so excited about the Ggobugi.. I don't even know how many tweets I wrote. I had a really blissful weekend thanks to fanmeeting and birthday party. I will go back to working hard from tomorrow hihi.. It's late at night!! See you in dreamland everyone~~!!

(A/N: Translation by @PSH_Translate)

 

After her tweets, she went to her follower’s list and click CN Blue account. From there she clicked Yong Hwa’s account. She saw his tweet.

[16Feb14 – 2:16PM] @JYHeffect: Have a happy day today!!!^^

 

Shin Hye: I did have a happy day Yong.

She then received a message from Yong Hwa.

 

Yong Hwa’s KKT Message: I got the wrong answer too. So now my profile photo is also same as yours. Kekeke.

 

Shin Hye: You really know how to make me smile Yong.

She remembers what happened during her advance birthday celebration.

 

Start of Flashback>>>

Little Tin Drums, Shin Hye’s Parent Restaurant (16Feb14)

It’s almost past midnight. The two younger CN Blue boys and Hong Ki all left already.

Shin Won: Shin Hye-ah, Umma said you should go home first. It’s been a tiring day for you. Let’s go now.

Shin Hye: Are you sure Oppa?

Shin Won: Deh.

Shin Hye: No need to accompany me Oppa. Just wait for Umma and Appa.

She left the restaurant. After a few minutes she reached their place since the restaurant is quite near from their home.

When she opens their door, it was dark in the living room.

Shin Hye's POV: I think Oppa forgot to turn on the lights before going to the restaurant.

She use her phone's light to see the switch. But even before she can find it, the lights turn on.

She saw five men standing with another man behind them.

Shin Hye: What are you all doing here? Shouldn’t you be all at home now?

Hong Ki: We should be really home now especially me because I'm sick.

Jung Shin: But we still need to do something first.

Min Hyuk: After this we will let you enjoy it alone.

Shin Hye: What are you talking about?

Jong Hoon: Someone who is supposed to be there decided to just come here. I still think he should be there but nevertheless at least he showed me that you are really special for him.

Jong Hyun: Are you done now?

Jong Hoon: Yah!

Jong Hyun: Don’t worry; we have the same point of view on that. But for today, it’s better this way.

Shin Hye: Jong Hyun? What are you doing here?

Just then the guy behind them stands.

Yong Hwa: Can you stop bickering now? I think it’s my turn to speak right?

Shin Hye: Yong?

Hong Ki: Guys, I think this is time that we should leave.

The rest of the guys nod and bid their goodbye to Yong Hwa and then to Shin Hye.

The two were left alone now. He walks closer to her.

Yong Hwa: I’m sorry Shin for not being there.

Shin Hye: I understand Yong.

Yong Hwa: I know you do but I can feel that you are sad. I was actually on my way there.

Shin Hye: Really?

Yong Hwa: Even before Min Hyuk and Jung Shin left, I already received a message from Jong Hoon.

Shin Hye: Message?

Yong Hwa: Actually it’s a photo.

He showed the photo of Jong Hoon and Shin Hye with Jun Hyung.

Shin Hye: You are jealous that’s why you decided to come.

He holds his nape.

She knows it’s the sign that he is nervous.

Yong Hwa: A bit.

She giggles and pecks his lips.

He was surprise and smile.

Shin Hye: Then why didn’t you push through?

Yong Hwa: I was about to enter my car when I saw some fans outside. So instead of using my car I borrow Jong Hyun’s car. When I reached the restaurant, there are still some guests. But I noticed some fans also.

Shin Hye: Are you sure they are fans?

Yong Hwa: Deh. I saw them holding their phones all ready to take photos. i waited for a few more minutes. Then when all the guests left and the fans follows too, I was about to go down the car when I saw Min Hyuk and Jung Shin.

Shin Hye: Why didn’t you go with them?

Yong Hwa: I wanted too but I saw two guys coming again. I thought they were also fans so I decided to wait again.

Shin Hye: Two guys? That’s probably Hong Ki and Jong Hoon.

Yong Hwa: I think you’re right. Not long after that Jong Hoon went out and he saw me.

Shin Hye: What did he tell you? He is a bit upset because you are not there.

Yong Hwa: He told me that. I explained to him the reason but he still thinks that I should just ignore it.

Shin Hye: Just understand him Yong. You know he is a close friend and just concern.

Yong Hwa: I know that.

Shin Hye: So, how did you end up here?

Yong Hwa: We are having our discussion when Shin Won Hyung approached us.

Shin Hye: Oppa?

Yong Hwa: Jong Hoon and I are talking outside Jong Hyun's car. He said what we are doing is way easier for fans to see us. So he said if I really want to see you just do it here. Then he gave me his key so I can just wait inside. Jong Hoon came with me and then he send message to Hong Ki.

Shin Hye: So that’s the reason why they are smiling. You should have just told me.

Yong Hwa: I wanted to surprise you.

Shin Hye: Just a simple call is enough.

Yong Hwa: But that’s not enough for me.

He hugged her.

She hugged back.

Yong Hwa: I’ll make it up to you.

Shin Hye: No need to Yong. You being here with me now should be enough for me.

Yong Hwa: Saranghe.

Shin Hye: Saranghe.

End of Flashback<<<

 

Park’s Residence (17Feb14)

When Shin Hye wakes up, she saw the mention from her twitter account of her fans changing their profile photos. In return for that, she updates her twitter account.

 

[17Feb14 – 8:55AM] @ssinz: I can see many changed profiel pic this morning. So excited>_< poohehe. It's weekend starting Monday. May be it's hard to leap out of bed. But let's cheer up with grateful mind and pass the day rewardingly ^^ 
Have a nice day~~^^

(A/N: Translation by @PSH_Translate)

 

Later that day, when she returned home already she saw some mentions about Hee Chul’s instagram update so she checks it.

[17Feb14] kimheenim: 'Heechul is going'. Park Shinhye whose face and heart is like an angel. Park Shinhye is the symbol of angel!! Im Yoona is symbol of deer!! Noru* is symbol of paint!! ........?? Sorry for the bad joke. Shinhye is really really angel-like so she really suits phrases like **
instagram.com/p/klfZhpo-d-/ *tn: it's the name of a paint company. **tn: it's a phrase from LOL

 

Shin Hye: Oppa is really so sweet. But why mentioned Yoona-ssi? I hope some fans won’t take this against me.

Then she saw the “Love Is” Narration teaser video for their up coming album.

(A/N: Translation taken from cnbluestorm.com)

Yong Hwa – Love is very sweet howeve
