[M] New Kid || Yeonbin

special chapter: interview

Soobin picked his head up, since he lost what Yeonjun was saying, "Yeahhhh."

Yeonjun laughed, "Did you understand what I just said?"

"I kept looking at the puppy... They're distracting." Soobin said in Korean.

Yeonjun laughed harder, "You're so cute... Your turn, bin."

Soobin reached into the jar and grabbed a question, "Which is your firsteu language, Korean or Engalish?... Is Korean or English your first language?" Soobin said, translating the question to Korean right after.

Yeonjun chuckled, "Did you just translate that for me?"

"Oh my god, I did..." Soobin laughed out, "Yeonjunie lib in America for eighteen years... S-So he speakeu Engalish first, but I speakeu Korean first."

"Yeah, my mom is from Busan, so me and my little brothers learned Korean from her. So we would speak Korean to her and speak English to my dad... But Soobin speaks pretty good English, right?"

Soobin laughed a little, "When Yeonjunie speakeu Korean umm... He speakeu in American accent."

"Really?"

"Yeah... It's cute."

Yeonjun smiled and grabbed the next question out of the jar, "What is it like being the first openly gay athlete representing Korea in the Olympics?... I don't know... I guess I never really thought about it."

"What's the question?"

"Sorry, Soob... What's it like being the first openly gay athlete representing Korea in the Olympics?" Yeonjun said, translating for him.

"Ahhh, I got it..." Soobin said, his little dimples pressing into his cheeks, "It's great, you know?"

Yeonjun laughed a bit, sliding the jar back over to Soobin, "Yeah, I know... It doesn't feel any different really. I'm just an athlete like everyone else."

Soobin smiled, reaching into the jar to grab the next question, "Did you guys g-go trough any hardeu times?..." Soobin said, reaching down again to pet the puppy in his lap, "When Yeonjunie andeu I in high school umm... we get bullied a lot."

"Yeah, we did... I feel like it's important to see people in the media that are in the queer community because we don't get represented as much. And especially for kids who're struggling with their sexuality or may not be in the best home. Just seeing people on tv or in real life and getting exposure to different cultures and a variety of people can really make a difference."

"We are ummm... still young andeu we started dating in high school, so umm... we didn't tell people dat we were togeder to be safeu... We still go through a lot of ummm... discr... discrimination..."

Yeonjun's eyes widened, reaching his palm out, "Nice vocab word, bin!"

Soobin smiled, giving Yeonjun a high-five before saying, "But at least we have ummm... each otder."

Yeonjun smiled, "Awww... Babe, you're so cute."

Soobin smiled before looking at the puppy in his lap, "Junie, he fell asleep." Soobin said in Korean.

Yeonjun scooted closer to Soobin and petted the puppy on Soobin's lap, "He's so peaceful."

Soobin looked at the puppy and his husband for a few seconds before snapping back into reality, "Oh, nexteu question, Jun..." They both laughed as Soobin grabbed the next question, "What is your favorite ice cream?... Ohhhhhh nooooo..."

"Oh my gosh, Soobinnie and I fight about this all the time."

"Because Yeonjunie likes minteu choco... Dat justeu wrong." Soobin said, making a big 'x' with his arms.
