Emilyn and Jase totally “Sunday Driver” coded!😍 Ofc my Ult’s solo song perfectly depicts the sweet, playlist sharing relationship of my main couple in SMILE FOR THE CAMERA 💝📖📚💝

English translation from Genius Lyrics: genius.com/Genius-english…
Sunday Driver by TOMORROW X TOGETHER with Lyrics Top Row: Girl in a yellow dress with a basket and tress in the background; Girl in white dress with a camera and her legs resting on a guy’s lap and they’re sitting in a car; Girl on her laptop. Middle Row: Girl staring out window with the sun out and writing something in her notebook; Celina Cercado from 4th Impact; Canon camera and photographs. Bottom Row: Girl in white dress holding a guy’s hand; Girl and boy about to kiss and you holding a guitar; Girl covering her face with a bouquet. Top Row: Boy in a checkered button down shirt; Boy playing guitar while a girl is resting her head on his shoulder; Boy holding guitar while producing something on his laptop. Middle Row: Boy typing on his laptop; Luke Hemmings; Smartphone with earphones plugged into it. Bottom Row: Girl and boy holding hands in a car; Boy smiling at girl as she points camera at him; Boy with wavy blonde hair looking upward at clear sky.

My Ult Soobin’s solo song “Sunday Driver” perfectly captures the relationship between Emilyn and Jase from SMILE FOR THE CAMERA!💝📖📚💝 The lyrics are about driving and playlists and so much cuteness, which Emilyn and Jase do plenty of in 1 chapter!🤭🥰💝
