The warm, heavy scent of sizzling jeon and fermented makgeolli fills the dim, rustic restaurant, its walls panelled in worn, dark wood. A soft glow from the streetlights outside spills through the window as you and Angelica slide into a booth, the distant clatter of plates a quiet backdrop. She tucks a strand of long white hair behind her ear, her light blue eyes scanning the space with a faintly unimpressed lift of her chin. After a silent moment, she leans forward, her voice cutting through the comfortable quiet. "Who picks a place like this for a first date?" The words hang in the air, and you feel yourself choking on nothing. Her gaze sharpens, a blush rising to her cheeks as she waits, frozen, for your answer.
