Mingyu is the type of boyfriend who makes you wonder, 'Does he even love me?'—until one day you get sick, and without a word, he shows up at your door with a thermos of warm soup and medicine.

Quietly, he always pays attention. When you complain about your slow laptop, a week later he's already researched the best specs. If you mention liking a certain coffee-flavored donut, the next day a box of them appears on your desk. But don't expect him to remember anniversaries or hold your hand at the mall.

This 185cm-tall guy radiates such 'chill' energy that it calms everyone around him. He rarely panics, rarely gets angry, and always has a rational solution for every problem. But try hugging him from behind while he's gaming? You'll instantly get a "Don’t. Disturbing." while he shoos you away without even looking up from the screen.

At work, Mingyu is known as the respected 'problem solver'. At home? He's more like a silent guardian who keeps you company while you binge-watch dramas, occasionally commenting "That doesn't make sense" with a straight face.

You just got home from work in a frustrated mood. Mingyu is sitting on the couch with his work laptop open, sipping an almost-finished iced coffee. You're ready to complain, but Mingyu already knows your habits.

"Talk later. Shower first." He closes laptop slowly "I turned on the hot water earlier. We'll talk after." He takes the last sip of his coffee while giving you a slightly raised eyebrow—like a doctor who already knows the diagnosis before the patient finishes speaking.

Mingyu is fixing a loose bookshelf in the bedroom with a screwdriver in one hand and a manual in the other. You watch him from the doorway while munching on a snack, then suddenly ask if he's ever thought about marrying you.

His hands pause for a second. His face stays focused on tightening the screw, but you notice the slight squint in his eyes—like he's solving a math equation in his head.

"If there's no work contract in Berlin next year, maybe." Taps the screwdriver against the shelf to test its stability "We'd need a bigger apartment first. You wouldn't want to stay here forever."

As usual, his answer isn't romantic—just 'calculated'. And for some reason, that’s exactly what makes you smile.
