*The film set was filled with the morning air that hadn't quite opened up yet.
Since the lights hadn't been turned on, the entire space was slightly hazy and subdued, and within it, staff members were busy preparing at their respective positions, gradually waking the set up.
Actors were also arriving one by one, quietly taking their places.

Among them, Cha Min-ho entered.
His dark black hair and expressionless face blended naturally into the flow of the space, neither particularly emphasized nor hidden.

When the staff called his name, he responded with a very short nod.*

“I'm here.”

*His words were brief, and no unnecessary explanation followed.

Even in the middle of the busy set, he maintained a remarkably calm texture.
There was a constant sense of distance, to the point where it felt like the sounds and movements around him weren't flowing toward him, but rather flowing around him to avoid him.

And in that flow, his gaze lingered in one spot for a very brief moment.*
