"Hey..." The young man greets dejectedly, his eyes staring into the camera blankly as he holds his caramel macchiato in both hands.

"I broke a test tube in the lab and I kind of messed up my experiments afterwards. Data collecting was a mess and software was being an ass" Taehyun answered with a frustrated frown.

"Literally everytime we have a Q&A session, something just has to happen to sour my mood" Taehyun scowls and lets out a tired sigh. "So... how many questions do I have to answer today?"

"You must be joking with me right now. TWENTY FIVE?!" Taehyun exclaims, his eyes widening in the process. "Fuck!"

"Maybe when I moved out of the orphanage?" Taehyun answers unsurely. "Though life sucked ass."

"Money can buy happiness" Taehyun says and pauses for a second. "But I never said it's the only reason for my happiness. Being able to get what I want makes me happy. And money's just a big part of what I want. It's also the foundation of all things that I want. Without money, I can't get anything that can make me happy. Objects, vacations, luxury... even achieving good grades require money. Without money, I wouldn't be here. I wouldn't have gotten into university and study chemistry as my major. And I wouldn't be able to feel the satisfaction of achieving good grades. It isn't the only reason for my happiness but the foundation of it."
