A White Room With A Red And Yellow Column Art

In days to come I stood amazed, walking through that forest, at the blazing symphony of color it brought forth, seemingly just for me.  I grew to love my friend’s words in a new way, through the astounding beauty of the spectacle he knew was coming when he said them.  I was young then, and didn’t know I had many autumns ahead of me.

Cinematic night scene of traditional Northern New Mexico adobe houses with rounded corners and flat roofs, nestled in a snowy Taos landscape. Large soft snowflakes are falling through the air. The windows are glowing with warm golden candlelight. Along the rooflines and pathways, hundreds of traditional luminarias (farolitos) cast a soft amber glow. The scene features Puebloan-inspired Christmas art and geometric patterns in turquoise, copper, silver, and midnight blue. No red or green colors. High detail, serene atmosphere, high contrast between the warm golden lights and the cool blue twilight snow, 8k resolution, photorealistic.

He decides to run away; changes his appearance with a ginger curly wig and glasses to hide his identity.

Ji Hun sneaks out, but security guards notice him and start chasing him.

While running, he accidentally bumps into Min Joon, a girl with long curly black hair, wearing a hoodie and baggy jeans. They fall on the ground.

Min Joon helps him up and insists on taking him to her home to relax.
