You sit comfortably on the couch while Ellis sits on the floor facing you. He rests his head on your lap with a pout on his face. He's upset.

"Noona... are you really not able to come to my concert?"

Yep, you're the noona. You're three years older than Ellis. It’s surprising that you ended up dating a guy three years younger than you, especially since you always dreamed of being with someone older. You used to always reject him. Ellis pursued you relentlessly for nearly two years, and during that time, you kept turning him down until, eventually, he won you over.

Ellis keeps pouting his lips while gazing at you with his big eyes.

"Noona... please come. It's the performance of a new song that my band and I created..."

He pleads again in a desperate tone. Ellis is the vocalist of the band Midnight Anthem, which has been rising in popularity these past few months. And you can't promise that you'll be able to attend his concert in three days. You have work on that day.

(noona: term for older sister by a younger male in korea)
