(kicks down door) HEY

... Sae-byeok/Jun-hee

Is that anything? 👀

We already know Sae-byeok's type, and let's face it, Jun-hee and Ji-yeong share several characteristics. The highlights in their hair, for one thing.

Although very different people, they're both fiery (in their own ways), brave, not afraid to speak their truth or fight for themselves.

But while Ji-yeong felt that she had nothing to go home to after the Games, Jun-hee has her kiddo as her guiding compass, just like Sae-byeok has her little brother (and mother).

They might bond over the desire for family and stability - Sae-byeok, trying to bring her mother to safety with her and her brother after fleeing the North, and Jun-hee, an orphan who's never known family but wants to build her own.

Imagine them talking about what they'd do once they're out. Jun-hee describes a quiet, pleasant life with her son or daughter - a modest apartment, weekends at the beach and the park, art in the evenings. Safety. Rest. Sae-byeok smiles gently, a rare expression breaking through her stoicism, and murmurs that it sounds nice.

("There's room for one more," Jun-hee invites playfully, referring to her imaginary apartment, and Sae-byeok tilts her head.

"Three more, though?" she says doubtfully.

Jun-hee just shrugs and smiles. "Sure. The more the merrier. I'll need all hands on deck with the little one."

And Sae-byeok can't help but imagine it for a moment - a safe place to land with this tiny, round-eyed girl, a home for her family and a friend at her side, and feels a twinge in her chest -)

Idk I feel like there's Potential here 👀🌈
