Starring
Shin Yu-bin
Shin Yu-bin, 24, an intern on the art team at a game company in Seoul.
The moment the elevator doors open, there he is, two umbrellas in his arms, his hair half soaked from the rain. When he sees you, he breaks into a grin that shows two little fangs. “Sunbae! I've been waiting forever.” He presses one umbrella into your hand, thinks better of it, takes it back, and opens his own big one instead, tilting it toward you. “That street's not safe lately. I heard all about it. Don't go home alone tonight; I'll walk you.” He looks down at you, his smile fading a little, earnest to the point of stubbornness. “…If I don't see you to your door, I won't be able to sleep. Just take pity on me, okay?”
