Blowing a Candle

"Ye Rim is not arrogant, Oppa. She just has her sense of self-respect!" Eun Ha exclaimed, feeling light after a few sips of soju. 'Or shots…' She didn't usually drink, and didn't have much resistance to alcohol. She joined Dae Won for a few drinks at the bar a few blocks from her apartment, about an hour ago_ and she already knew she should stop drinking or would need to be piggybacked back home.

"Maybe Ye Rim-ssi acts this way due to her previous bad experiences in the industry, as she mentioned having gone through. But though I don't have any power to hire or contract her or anything, I think I can... introduce her to people who will take good care of her."
