Even though the appearance was less than 10 minutes long, it was a roller coaster of emotions.

Netizens couldn't hide their surprise when SF9's Rowoon showed up in Ahn Hyo Seop's latest K-Drama... in a BL plot!

It's no secret that Ahn Hyo Seop and Rowoon from SF9 are friends, and the way they talk to each other always makes fans smile. With so much skill and beauty between them, their friendship is truly unique.

In A Time Called You, Jeon Yeo Been plays a young woman who is sad about the death of her boyfriend, Gu Yeon Jun, who is played by Ahn Hyo Seop.

She is sent back in time to be a high school student, where she meets someone who looks like her boyfriend.

The K-drama's eighth episode starts with Ahn Hyo Seop's character in class, where she meets Tae-Ha, played by Rowoon.

As the figure played by Rowoon falls asleep, Ahn Hyo Seop can be seen looking at his friend.

Ahn Hyo Seop is on the roof after class. It seems like he wants to find a way to tell his friend how he feels.

Ahn Hyo Seop's character was trying to find a way to confess, and Rowoon's character seemed to feel the same way as he tried to hint at why he went so far for a cram school.

The scene then moves to the two of them on a road trip, where Tae Ha wants to practice driving and they talk and show how close they are.

But things got worse when they started looking for CDs together and touched each other.

After that moment, Ahn Hyo Seop reached out to touch Rowoon's hand, and the SF9 member's character didn't seem to know what had just happened.

But Ahn Hyo Seop's worries finally cause Rowoon's hand to relax, and they both smile at each other. It wasn't hard to guess that the characters had finally let everyone know how they felt about each other.

The characters didn't have a happy finish because they were hit by a car. Even though it was short, netizens couldn't get over how Rowoon showed up out of nowhere and what his part was.
