Ji-hun followed her outside, looking at the person she hugged first. The face was familiar, but he was really confused between her brother and the other boy. He had never peered into the screen during her video calls with them, and had never been able to gather the courage to ask her to show him the photographs of her family members, either.
But analysing her body language, he was sure that the person wearing a T-shirt and jeans was her brother, despite the fact that he was a professor; while the person, fully dressed up in formals, was her friend!
He noticed that she had stepped away from her brother as she gave a hug to her friend as well.
He was familiar with her nature and culture, both. He was aware that she had grown up in a very open society, and hugging her male friends was just a warm gesture for her- and also quite normal! But he still found himself jealous; he was extremely jealous, and not even afraid to accept this fact either.
