And so I want to write a piece in the perspective of an outsider. I just had the idea of a Painter!Seung and a Model!Jessi. I don't think this will be a fairly long story, like 4 pieces, but I would like some help/collaboration. Probably a bit of my more mature stories.

Summary: Estranged from his wealthy family, Moon Seung Li pursued his dream as a painter. Now he's a freelance artist, Seung faces the problem of finding inspiration for his work. Thanks to his good friend Wang, he finds the beautiful Hanari Jessi posing in front of his canvas. Intrigued by her quiet, yet fierce nature, Seung falls in love with her and discovers that her beauty's is not a work of art; every little thing about her is.
