The two actors definitely felt more comfortable compared to the previous takes.
The onlookers also felt the shift in their composure, making them impressed of June's and Arin's professionalism.
June had a sweet smile, one that would make his fangirls melt in a heartbeat.
Jay shook his head as he watched June in his element, wondering how the guy was filled with so much talent. He didn't expect him to improve so fast after his suggestion.
Arin, too, embodied the shy Nayeon who didn't have a lot of experience with love. However, her eyes were filled with so much love—one that others couldn't deny.
"Arin is killing it," Nana whispered, liking the look on the actress' face.
However, her expression was largely attributed to the fact that she wasn't really acting.
She just really liked June.
June took a step forward...and another...and another...until they were only a foot away from each other. There was still a gap between them since they wanted to keep the drama PG-13.
Nonetheless, there was something heart-fluttering about their distance.
It was something only teenagers in high school could portray.
It took them back to the times when love was much simpler, and Director Nana wanted to portray that sweet love in the short drama.
"Tomorrow, wear whatever you're comfortable with," Jin said, looking into Nayeon's eyes. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).
Nayeon shyly tucked her hair behind her ears.
"For what?" she asked.
Jin paused for a moment, internally gathering his courage to finally ask the question.
"Our first date—let's have it tomorrow."
Jin sighed in relief after he finally dropped the question. It was fascinating how June was able to act on the nuances of Jin's character.
He was really just a shy little boy despite his cool exterior. The onlookers were endeared by Jin's personality and June's portrayal.
The others watching felt like a star was being born right before their eyes. It was rare to find idols who could act as well as June, and although Director Nana wanted to gatekeep his talent so she could continue to work with him, she also knew that the world deserved to see June in bigger projects.
"You should tell me more than that," Nayeon said.
"What do you want to know?" June cheekily asked. "It may not be much since I'm saving up, but I think we can still have a fun time."
Nayeon sighed before shaking her head.
"You know I don't care about that. I can even pay for the date if you want."
"No," Jin shook his head. "Please, let me spoil you."
Arin pursed her lips to hide her widening smile. She wanted to scream like a lunatic right then and there, but her character still needed to act composed!
Nayeon didn't argue with him further; she was actually elated to be spoiled by another person other than her family.
"What do I wear then?" Nayeon asked, sounding more excited.
"It doesn't matter," Jin smiled. "You can wear whatever you're comfortable in."
"No," Nayeon shook his head. "You need to tell me the theme."
