Description 작품 소개
At a showcase of new album of K-pop group “Cresta,” a loner fan interacts with another fan with a different bias sitting next to her, but their conversation somewhat does not click. The fan teases that the protagonist overthinks too much, but on the other hand, the protagonist also finds it difficult to understand the world of "slash fiction" and "shipping" that the fan casually mentions. The distance between the two seems to get closer, but again further, maintaining the just right distance, just like the love of a fan towards her bias.
Through the different type of affection the two shows, the author questions the readers about relationship with strangers in real life and within a fandom. Love towards one’s existing “bias,” which is love that does not need participation of another person, can function as a scale to estimate the evolution and regression of love at present. Being a fan of someone (or something), it is love that can be complete even by just dispatching such emotion. It feels sweet and safe and most of all, it feels like love that you can always walk away from if you don’t feel like it. It’s love that you nurture and grow.
