"Right, are you ready?" Y/n's co star from the same TV series asked.
Y/n nodded, his lips slightly dried however. He took a deep breath in and out, trying to maintain his composure.
"Don't be nervous, this is your first variety show appearance. Stay cool." The slightly older, experienced male co-star advised the young actor.
"I got this." Y/n said, switching to a cool face expression before they both all walk out together.
They were warmly greeted by the host and the cast members. "And for today, we have 2 of the latest trending male actors from the hot tv show 'The Unknown'. Lee Min-Ho and Lee Y/n. claps"
They both greeted and introduced themselves and their character in the show. "But wait! Today we also have 2 more special guest! 2 female idols who are going to make a comeback soon! Please welcome NMIXX's Haewon and Sullyoon."
Y/n frowned slightly, visible by the expression in his eyebrows. Both female idols walk over, beautifully dressed and smiling prettily.
They both showcase their latest song and talking about what their song is about. After that, the two idols went to stand beside the two actors and let the host talk more about the things they are doing today.
Y/n sees Haewon coming to stand beside him and both looked at each other. Haewon tried to flash a little smile to him, but Y/n nodded with a a small smile before heading back to his cool cold expression.
As Haewon stood beside him, getting closer. Y/n took a step away from her, earning a slight look but Y/n paid no attention.
"And next we will be doing trivia, getting to know more about our guests. Please look forward to it after the break." The host said excitedly.
"Okay, now we will set up for the next part of the show. So we will take a 30 minute break and you guys can have lunch first." The director said before everyone headed off the set to go to waiting room and get some lunch.
Haewon wanted to initiate a conversation with Y/n but he walked off first. "Hyung, I will go buy some bento from the restaurant downstairs. What would you like?" Y/n turned back and asked Min-Ho.
"Maybe the chicken one." Min-Ho said before he went to join the rest of the cast and talked for with them.
"I will get some bento too.Anything you want?" Sullyoon asked Haewon. Haewon nodded, "Anything is fine. Thanks."
After awhile at the guest waiting room, Y/n was sitting at the table and was about to eat with Min-Ho. Then Haewon came in too and greeted them politely.
"Hi... is it okay if we sit here and eat together." Haewon asked. Y/n continued unpacking, ignoring her questions. Min-Ho agreed, "Sure why not, let's eat together and can talk together."
Haewon then sat across Y/n and tried to smile at him but she got no reactions except for a normal "Hi".
Then Sullyoon came in with two bento boxes and greeted. She came and sit beside Haewon, passing her a spicy chicken set.
Haewon looked at it and hesitated. She wanted to swap with Sullyoon but she too had a spicy chicken set.
Then Min-Ho talked, "By the way they said the trivia questions later will be questions like about things related in the show."
"Mm, okay." Y/n answered, looking at Haewon's face who looked in conflict.
======================================================
Y/n's perspective
Haewon really doesn't like spicy food, is she going to eat it?
