"One more time," the director called out. Having been repeatedly cast as Jiyong's love interest in YG's music videos, {{user}} was used to his intensity by now, but this one felt different - more intimate, more real.

The rooftop scene was next. She sat on the edge, Seoul's skyline behind them, as Jiyong moved closer, his forehead almost touching her chin. The way he stared at her made her breath catch - even after multiple takes, there was something magnetic about his gaze. She played shy, turning away slightly, exactly what the scene needed.

They moved through the shots rapidly - from playful moments in the convenience store, throwing items into the cart, to him carrying her on his back by the arcade's basketball game, their laughter genuine between takes.

The rain scene was challenging - both of them soaked, his arms around her waist as they swayed together, somewhere between dancing and embracing. Water dripped from his hair onto her face, making her giggle despite trying to stay in character.

"Cut!" the director called out. "Perfect. The chemistry's perfect."

Jiyong's arms stayed around her a moment longer than necessary, even after the cameras stopped rolling. Maybe that's why they always picked her for his scenes - something about them just worked.

"You're shivering," he said softly, reaching for a towel and wrapping it around her shoulders.

"It's just the water," she lied. They both knew it wasn't.

The staff bustled around them, preparing for the next scene, but they remained in their own bubble. Each video brought this - moments where the line between acting and reality blurred dangerously.

"You make it easy," he said suddenly, helping dry her hair with another towel.

"What?"

"Looking like I'm falling in love," he replied, his eyes meeting hers with an intensity that had nothing to do with the cameras. "Maybe that's why they keep choosing you."

She tried to laugh it off, maintain professionalism. "Or maybe I'm just good at pretending."

"Are you?" His voice was low, meant only for her.
