As you probably know,

my name is Woo Jin Hyeong.

Born on June 27th, 1996.

I have a bachelor's degree in bio,

and I'm currently majoring in Nano Biosystems Bioengineering.

I work as a TA at the admin office.

I scored 980 in TOEIC,

and I like movies and novels.

My family lives in Seoul, which is more than three hours away.

That's why I'm looking for a place of my own.

My mother is a pianist, and my dad runs a private institute.

I mostly like Korean food,

and I prefer rice over noodles.

That's all I got for you.

Do you have any questions?

Well...

Hyung.

I mean...

If you're finding a place, why don't you live with me?

Sure.

I didn't think he'd accept.

- Shall we go house hunting? - Huh?

By the way, can I have that note?

Yeah, sure, take it.

As he introduced himself with a list of things he wrote about himself,

I found him so quirky that it made me wonder even more.

Hyung, I'm home.

And now...

Oh, hey.

This is what we came to be.

Someone who looked so other-worldly is now in my house.

It's my first relationship as an adult.

Perhaps I got too excited from moving so fast.

In the first week we met...

S-stop!

Sorry if I was coming off too strong.

No.

Was I being cocky when it's only been a week?

Since it's my first time, I...

It's not that. Get up.

I've never been so intimate with anyone.

Although...

It's a bit embarrassing, but I like romance novels and movies,

so I have a lot of fantasies about things like this.

And I don't think I'm ready for it yet.

Could you wait until I am?

He is so cute.

Yes, of course.

I can wait as long as you need.

Since then...

Hyung, I'm home.

He finally showed his true colors.

Hyung.

What is this?

You read it.

It says so in the title. A research plan on pseudo-reproduction.

How was public transportation part of the plan?

Well, I erased that.

And what about a K-pop idol costume?

You said you have fantasies.

That's why I'm planning ahead for a perfect execution.

You're the one who had fantasized too much about me.

I know we haven't known each other for a long time,

but we're living together.

Yet, this is how you think of me.

Could you wait?

Come on!

I'm twenty-six with plenty of experience!

No, I'm not that far off.

Normally...

[TA Woo] It's past the deadline.

[TA Woo] We don't accept additional applications.

[TA Woo] We notified you three times via text.

[TA Woo] This is me.

You probably have no idea,

but you're actually so sweet and shy,

a bit clueless, pure, yet so cheeky.

Innocent, but also seductive,

and, and...

Am I really like that?

Yes, you are all of those things.

Anyway, I look forward to your cooperation

for a successful research on our first time.

You must have something you want to do.

Tell me.

Seriously, I've never really thought about it.

Well, I guess there's no other way.

Woo Yun, I'll lend you my e-book library.

Read all of them and pick one by the end of today.

Those are all kinky stuff.

Stop reading those things!

We're in this together, so we should both decide.

Come on, what do you want to try?

We have to discuss and run simulations

so that we can run the protocol

and execute on the big day without any issues.

This feels too much like we're designing an experiment.

What are your plans and fantasies?

Anything you want for our first time? Just give me something!

Okay, then, when we do it...

I want us to look into each other's eyes,

hold hands all the way,

and share our feelings, like,

"I like you."

And, "I love you."

How's that?

Hyung, can I open the door now?

He's really bad at hearing the lovey-dovey stuff, huh?

One-Room TA.

So cute.

Hyung, should we get a cat?

My friend's cat had a baby...

No.

Why not? I'll feed it, clean after it...

What about money?

Don't your parents pay for rent and tuition?

If I cash out my savings, I can spare about 200,000 won a month.

That's a lot of money.

What about medical fees?

Also, we both come home late at night.

What's a cat supposed to do all day?

You know all this, since you like animals.

Where is all this coming from?

It was just a suggestion.

You've been coming home late these days.

You seem on edge, probably because you're tired.

And we barely talk to each other.

I know that you're busy with work.

But when I'm home alone, I wonder.

How is this different from living with a roommate?

Are we even a couple?

Does he actually like me at all?

I keep spiraling.

I thought maybe if we adopt a cat, I might feel less lonely.

[Conscience]

I'm sorry for acting so childish.

I'm sorry, too.

But I can't help it.

I've been swamped taking care of the department

and the lab by myself.

Wait, I remember.

Jin Hyeong, I was looking for you.

I thought you were doing it with your peers.

We're particularly busy this year.

You can't do it by yourself, so ask your peers to join you.

Yes, ma'am.

Did you forget what the professor said?

Why are you doing it alone?

Are they making you do it?

No, it's not like that.

I couldn't bring it up to share the work.

Since I got used to seeing him in private, it slipped my mind.

I see.

This was what he was like.

I was going to ask them at first, but...

- We can go together next time. - Sure.

Oh, hey, Jeong Hyun.

No, that's Woo Jin Hyeong.

My bad. What brings you here?

Wait, is he one of us?

It didn't feel like the right time, so I ran.

Come on.

How can you be so timid?

Even if you aren't close with them, you could've left a formal message.

Well...

I couldn't.

It's supposed to be a one-person job,

and they all have things to do.

After pretending not to know them all this time,

I can't ask them a favor out of the blue.

It's kind of awkward.

Why not?

You could take this opportunity to make friends.

If you can't get up the nerve, should I talk to them instead?

No, that's worse!

I'm sorry I wasn't more attentive.

But once we get past this month, I'll have more free time.

Then, we can go watch movies

and eat out at restaurants.

Once I'm done with this job, I'll be much better.

[Pet Month]

Hyung is home.

Is that... A cat?

You have to take good care of him.

No way!

Come on, stop biting.

Our cat is a genius!

I thought you hated cats.

I never said that.

Hyung!

Where's the cat?

You're really good at making cat noises.

So I thought you really brought an actual cat.

Aren't they amazing?

They match my hair color so well.

Yeah, I guess.

There's a mop in the bedroom, separated by a sliding door.

It's mostly for cleaning,

- But there is another use for it. - Hyung, I'm sorry.

Please open up.

It's fine, how could you have known

what it took for me to pretend to be a cat

as a grown ass man?

No, you were really adorable.

Hyung.

Hyung...

One-Room TA.
