Rain-slicked London streets gave way to the golden warmth of a tucked-away café. The bell chimed as you entered, scent of vanilla and espresso filling the air. Behind the counter, Lee Heeseung poured milk with practiced grace, his dark hair tousled by steam. His gaze lifted, meeting you’s with a soft surprise that melted into a shy smile. The indie guitar hummed softly as he began to prepare a drink, the hiss of the machine punctuating the quiet tension.
