"Gulp... Ack...! Good work. You opened the dojang today too, right?"
"Of course I did. No members... Oh, you took care of one. What about you? How's it been lately?"
"Work's the same as always. Think I'll make deputy next year?"
"Oh, a promotion! Congrats!"
"Thanks."
Clink!!
We stepped into a nearby gopchang restaurant. Without even discussing it, we sat down and ordered a mixed platter, then set aside a few bottles of light soju to sip on. Reexchanging updates with Jae-min, we each downed a shot.
"Hooah... It's been forever since I had soju~"
"You don't drink with friends? Oh, right, they don't like booze much either?"
"Yeah. Plus, I feel most comfortable drinking like this with my husband and you."
Ye-na, seated next to Jae-min, had already set the table with chopsticks and such, holding her soju glass in both hands with a beaming smile. Jae-min refilled her empty glass and asked:
"Ye-na, how much are you drinking tonight?"
"Hmm~ As much as my husband?"
"Then I should go easy too. Seong-hyeon, you won't drink much anyway, right?"
"When have we ever drunk a ton? Except for that time before enlistment when we got smashed."
"True."
Pour...
Jae-min filled my glass next, then handed me the soju so I could top his off. And once more—Clink!—we toasted and emptied another round. Since we rarely drank, two shots of soju already gave a nice buzz. Perfect. Just tipsy enough to loosen up the conversation.
"Jae-min. Ah—"
"Ah well..."
"Tasty?"
"Pretty good? The side dishes are killer. Makes it a real spot. Though nothing beats what my wife's cooking."
"What~ Want some green onion?"
"Gimme one... Why're you staring?"
"'Cause it's cute, dummy."
With a total singleton like me right there, I grinned watching the lovey-dovey couple. Catching my gaze, Jae-min awkwardly grumbled like he'd forgotten I was there for a sec. Ye-na blushed a bit and smiled shyly.
"Sorry. Jae-min's been so busy lately, we haven't eaten out in ages. Guess I'm a little excited."
"Told you it's cute. When have you two not been like that? Keep going. Just hear me out later."
"Oh! Right, that's why we're here! Spill it. Who's the girl? Someone you met when I helped with your outfit last time?"
"Yeah! You said there's someone you're into? First time you've brought this up, so we're dying to know."
Square table. Jae-min with his neat pomade style and Ye-na with her long pink hair swaying leaned toward me, full of interest. Sure enough, this was the first time I'd ever consulted these two on girl troubles. Never even had anything worth consulting about before.
So I popped a freshly grilled intestine into my mouth, chased it with a shot of soju, and got serious.
"One thing upfront: don't hold back. Judge it cold and hard. I won't get hurt."
"We'll stick to the facts even if you cry."
"I'll be as objective as I can from a woman's view."
"Got it. Alright... A few weeks back, after the dojang remodel, the first member who signed up."
"Pretty?"
"...Huh? Hey, hubby?"
"Just purely curious, babe. So, is she?"
"Stunning. Speechless."
"For real? That hot... Sorry to crush it right off the bat, but maybe you're seeing things? Wait, that time I helped with clothes. Didn't you eat with her then?"
"Different person. The building owner where my dojang is. Figured I should dress properly, so I asked you about outfits."
"Dude, eating with the landlord and making it sound shady... Anyway, moving on. What'd this member do?"
"Well, that's the thing..."
I explained only her reactions before and after class, gesturing wildly, careful not to let a hint of the dojang or system slip. First, how Jeong Ye-sol chatted briefly then left early to rest.
"Maybe she just dipped early to chill? Dojang's air-conditioned."
"That's what I thought... But at least no bad vibes."
"Right. If she was pissed, she'd bolt no matter how hot it was outside."
"Yeah, nothing weird then. Keep going."
Then more days she lingered after class, even chatting a bit personally.
"Look at you, not drooling over a pretty girl."
"Can't do that to a member. Remember what you said? Less talk."
"Good call. Not full-on romance vibes, but chatting like that? Solid start."
"Yeah! Feels good. My heart's pounding! What next?"
We agreed up to here. She saw me positively as a person? No way romantic interest yet. I continued to the rapt pair.
"Then she asked if I had a girlfriend. Said no."
"Normal question."
"But she added she's single too. Straight up."
"What?"
"Seriously? Not you asking first?"
"Didn't wanna be rude, so I didn't. But she goes, 'No girlfriend? Me neither.' Confirmed it when I blanked out."
"Hold up! This is juicy!"
"Definitely interested? She could-ve dodged, but volunteering that? Huge sign...!"
"Right! If I'd heard it live, it'd be clear, but secondhand's iffy."
The two started buzzing over Ye-sol's 'I'm single too'. Then yesterday: she dolled up with makeup and cute clothes. Asked if it was a blind date setup, she glared and said no interest. Brought an Americano to share. Right before leaving, suggested dinner post-exam. They got louder, freaking out.
"No doubt, no doubt. Seong-hyeon, I guarantee. She's into you."
"It's so blatant... What if gold digger? Kinda worried."
"Gold digger? Probably not. You guys think it's real too, right? Not just me dreaming?"
"Heh heh heh... Go ahead and drink that kimchi soup. Permission granted!"
"Assuming no scam, 100%. Or maybe keeping you in her pond... Hard to say without seeing."
"Doesn't seem the type. She offered to buy dinner."
"I went negative, but meet her first. If it progresses, bring her around. We'll vet."
"Yeah! No dating without our okay."
"Whew... Got it. Okay. Gotta step up that day. We see each other Saturdays anyway..."
"Yo, text after every Saturday class. What's she like? Can't wait."
"Hey, Seong-hyeon. Shopping together next time? Need cute clothes for then. I'll pick."
Greenlit to chug the kimchi soup by the two. My heart raced anew. Booze-fueled grin spread across my face. Sure, I'd already tasted Ye-sol's body, but dating outside like these two? Totally different.
'Me feeding Ye-sol ah like that... Nah, she doesn't seem the type. Anyway...!'
Idea of dating that college girl had my lips locked in a smile.
"Heh heh heh..."
"Look at this perv grinning sleazily."
"Seriously... You've been through hell lately, Seong-hyeon. Dojang's booming now... So glad. Gonna cry..."
"Whoa! Ye-na's really tearing... up."
"C'mon, babe. Cut it out!"
"I'm not... Sniff..."
Grateful for Ye-na treating my win like hers. Jae-min didn't say it, but his smile wouldn't fade.
"Have some water... Oh, how old's she? Our age?"
"Uh? Oh... Well..."
"What, older? Suits you though."
"Sniff... Older... Yeah... Matches Seong-hyeon..."
"Not older... College student."
"Younger then? Damn, even senior year? Twenty-three? Four? Lucky bastard..."
"...Jae-min?"
"...Slip. Anyway, younger's... fine..."
"Twenty."
".........What?"
"...Yeah?"
"Twenty. College nearby. Freshman."
"......"
"......"
Silence from both. Jae-min blank-faced, Ye-na eyes wide, tears forgotten, staring at me. In the bustling, noisy gopchang joint full of other patrons, our table went dead quiet. Moment later.
"Let's rethink from scratch. A twenty-year-old approaching a Dojang Master seven years older? Sketchy."
Jae-min propped his chin on laced hands, face stiff. But counter:
"Could happen though?"
Ye-na defended me.
"Usually peers or upperclassmen... But some like older guys. Mature, stable."
"...Some anime like that lately?"
"For real. Seven years ain-t much, and with your build, he seems solid... Running a dojang at our age? Looks cool blind."
"...Makes sense... But damn, twenty? Seven years younger? C'mon... Pic?"
"Pic? Obviously not... Why'd I have member photos?"
"True... Ugh, dying of curiosity!! Visit when she's there?"
"Reservation-only private now. No drop-ins, please."
Jae-min's worry spiked mine briefly, but Ye-na's words reboosted me. Beside writhing Jae-min clutching his head, Ye-na smiled softly and added:
"Hope it works out. She has good taste. Saw what a catch you are."
"Yeah... Thanks. I'll give it my all."
"Hee hee, good!"
How's such a pretty girl say such pretty things? And those subtly big tits resting on the table... Don't look, Joo Seong-hyeon!! Sigh. Anyway, Yoon Jae-min, you lucky dog. Cherish Ye-na forever.
Around 9 PM, we headed out before too late. None of us liked getting plastered; after Ye-sol talk, we bloomed into recent updates and old tales till we called it.
"Haa... Time flies. Feels like yesterday puking on the street after all-nighter at the pocha pre-enlistment."
"Right? Same weather too? Cool breeze..."
"Almost slept there. Without Ye-na, we'd have greeted dawn on the pavement."
"Miss it... So fun. You two all 'you're my best friend,' 'thanks dude,' total saps?"
"Hey, no."
"Yeah. Cringe."
"I thought it was sweet~ Hee hee."
Reliving memories outside, savoring the buzz, strolling with old pals. Destination: my dojang. Promised a tour. They'd been a few months back pre-remodel, first time since.
"Tour to sober up, cab from up ahead."
"Crash here."
"Work tomorrow. Oof, body aches already."
"Told ya exercise. Join now? Free PT."
"How? Twenty-min walk from home."
"Then gym at yours? Gaining weight lately..."
"Not fat, babe. But if you want, go for it. Safer with him than gym."
"Nah. Our place fine if you insist, but local's better. You? Home workouts suffice."
"Right, right. Hear that, babe?"
"Yess~"
Cut it quick lest she really sign up. If Lee Ye-na joined for real, I'd try my best to hold back. But honestly? No 100% confidence suppressing desire. System letting me toy with folks in dojang softened my resolve. Preempted. Endured eyes drifting to her ass or chest. Soon, dojang arrived.
Click, clack.
Unlocked, lights on. Empty interior lit bright.
"Less kid stuff? Sign's Seonghyeon Self-Defense now, teaching real techniques?"
"Told ya. No kids, adults reservation-only."
"Hmm, adults only sustainable? Fewer slots..."
"It works. Think I'm bluffing?"
"Sounds legit... But treadmill? Random."
"Not just self-defense. Mix it up. Can't fill with that alone."
"Ah, yeah. PT too."
"More gear coming. Otopi sandbag here..."
"What's this! Begging to punch!"
Thwack!!
"Feels good, right?"
"Yeah? That girl loves wailing on it."
Chatting with Jae-min touring, Ye-na peeked other rooms ahead.
"Spacious~ Reservation's smart. No crowds?"
"Mostly. Plan for up to two-three overlap."
Full lap later, sat center for chat. No big changes sans kid gear, nothing more to gawk.
"Self-defense... World's rough these days."
"Takes long? Weak, no athleticism like me? Tough."
"Simple stuff, quick learn. Worst case, teach tool use."
"Hmm... Ye-na too? Wasn't worried till seeing this. News nonstop crazies..."
"Don-t go out much 'cept shopping, dates. You protect then."
"Fair."
Ending with their dovey chat like lovebirds. I nodded too. System-prompted, started teaching Ye-sol self-defense as first member, hence the name. Real world? Rarely for need, mostly fun.
"You'll watch homeward too?"
"Duh. Even after. Stuck to you."
"Promise? Hee hee."
Booze amping affection past limits despite me there, I wrapped up. Self-defense more hobby than necessity. Most come for fitness. Same vibe.
"Actually, self-defense isn't really needed in real—"
Mid-sentence. A hologram filled my view.
