hello everyone, i hope your wednesday / thursday is going well! iāve been without internet for a while now so iāve come to my local library to leech for a couple of hours. anyways, i come bringing some somewhat bad news, and that news is: iām dropping rkkyungri. and it feels bad man, really feels bad because iāve had her for nearly a whole year. but i think itās time to let her go and be free, and move on to bigger and better things.
iāve been thinking about this for a while, hesitant in fact. i promised myself i would hold onto her and not pick up another third muse but after a year of writing for her, i found myself with other muses in my head. itās not that i donāt necessarily donāt enjoy writing for her anymore, i just feel as though itās going to be difficult going ahead. that and i think she could be happier elsewhere. iām going to keep putting my energy into rkrose and rksaercm and a new muse who is hopefully going to be arriving shortly.Ā
that being said, whatās going to happen to rkkyungri? well, sheās going to continue being a youtuber and content creator, sheāll still be working as a make-up artist and nail technician. for now, sheās given up on the dream of wanting to become an idol. she canāt deal with the drama that comes with it, sheās not getting any younger after all. that being said, sheās going to continue pursuing music. maybe an indie label will pick her up, maybe sheāll form her own company or something? who knows, but for now, sheās going to do her own thing.Ā
iām really sorry to everyone that was plotting with her or had threads with her ( iām sorry to moonbok most of all, she loves him okay <33 ), and who knows!!! maybe sheāll reappear somewhere down the line!? i donāt think this is totally it for her, but for now, yeah. in the meantime, i think i might end up making a new blog for this new muse.... see yāall around!

āiāve been good,ā he lies through his teeth, but thereās a genuine enough smile on his face that heās sure she wonāt see through. he hasĀ been decently okay recently, and nothing has really bothered him too much as of late, so heās sure heās not fullyĀ lying. only a little bit, because of course, his mental state has been acting up a lot but heās trying really hard not to think about that at all.Ā āhow have you been, nuna?āĀ
sheās one of his favorite makeup artists, even if he probably shouldnāt have too much of a bias when it comes to people that he works with. but not many makeup artists actually talk to him when theyāre making his face look pretty, so a lot of times he canāt help but doze off in his chair as theyāre putting products onto his face.Ā
fashion look book photoshoots are always hectic though, with the different models and makeup artists and stylists all there, working on different things and all the photographers and assistants running about, so dongmin is mostly glad he has another familiar face there aside from his manager to fall back on a bit.Ā āi havenāt seen you in a while!ā
"thatās good to hear,ā kyungri says sweetly, eyes turning to crescent shapes. dongmin had always been a blast to work with; some people were no fun to sit and do make-up on, sitting in absolute silence with no conversation, it definitely didnāt make time pass any quicker. kyungri had gotten along with dongmin the moment they had met, he was always good in the chair which made kyungriās job a whole lot easier. so nonetheless, sheās happy to have him here again.
āah, iāve been okay.ā she says honestly with a shrug. nothing overly excited, nor terrible had gone on. sheās still in the process of recovering from her stint on the mgas. sheās still irked out over the response her parents gave her, their disapproving words havenāt gotten any better these past years, even after she went into the beauty industry. ādisappeared for a little after the mgas, but iām slowly getting back into the groove of things.ā and by slowly, she meant almost immediately. she had gone on a small girls trip to jeju island to get away from things for a week but after her return, she almost immediately dived back into her work; recording new videos and getting in touch with her clients. kyungri was very efficient when it came to work.Ā
she begins by prepping his face, gently tapping at it with a toning wipe, removing any residue that could interfere with the make-up sheās about to beat his face with. itās apart of her own personal ritual and itās very kyungri to subject her clients to actions that appear in her own routine.Ā āwork been alright for you?ā she asks, glancing at the younger male in the mirror before discarding the wipe, fingertips running over the many products laid out in front of her before she collects the primer sheās looking for.Ā āhow has today been going, busy?ā

moonbokrkā:
Oh God. Oh God. Heās totally misread the situation, hasnāt he?! Surely he wasnāt the friend that Kyrungri had been intending to hang out with, was he?! Turning even redder if possible, Moonbok just about restrains himself from hiding behind the sling bag resting across his chest.
But the fact that he was the one she wanted to hang out withā¦ Moonbok could feel a warmth spreading through him and knew there was a stupid smile on his face, despite his embarrassment and efforts to keep his expression neutral.Ā
āYou heard her, didnāt you?ā a voice snarks in his head.Ā āYouāre her friend, thatās all. Donāt get any big ideas.ā
That doesnāt keep him from hoping, though.
Realizing Kyungri is waiting for an answer, he hurriedly clears his throat and nods, and grabs the handle of his case. Pushing his hair behind his ear, he smiles at the older girl.
āR-right. Thatāsā¦. this is really kind of you, noona. So at least let me be the one to buy lunch, ok?ā he says with a laugh, gesturing that they should probably get moving and not block up the area any more than necessary. Plus, if they start walking and trying to find their hotel, it means he has less of a chance to start making a fool of himself. Theoretically, at least.
kyungri is puzzled, moonbok is coming across as rather flustered. maybe this was just a lot to take in, so going and grabbing something to eat was probably a good way to diffuse any tension between the two of them. not that kyungri felt as though there was tension between them, none at all. moonbok just seemed a little off, thatās all. maybe it was just the travelling or the nerves about what the festival was going to be like. maybe food and a good nights rest would put him at ease. kyungri canāt help but smile. she nods. āalright, if you want to buy lunch, then iāll let you do that.ā kyungri says. she had planned on buying, since moonbok had gone out of his way to get ahold of a ticket for their flight over here, but if it meant that much to him, then leave it be.
āi forgot to mention i hired a car.ā kyungri says suddenly. she hadnāt planned to go to jeju and just do the festival, she was going to do a little bit of sight-seeing if she could help herself.Ā āso we can throw our bags in the car and go grab some food.ā kyungri keeps ahold of her case handle, holding her handbag with her other hand. āand then check in, sound alright? lets go find this car.ā she follows moonbokās gesture, having organised to meet with someone about this car within the area of the airport. shouldnāt be too hard to find.Ā
she spots the company in a parking bay near by where the two of them exit and kyungri quickly signs a couple of pieces of paper before the two men hop into another car and take off, leaving her and moonbok with their rental car for the next couple of days. she opens the trunk of the car, calling for moonbok to bring his suitcase around.

though when it comes to animals, donghyuckās allegiance is to his two cats, lady and burger, deep down heās still a dog person and the only reason he forgets that is for jaemin. besides, he canāt really take care of himself, how can he expect himself to take care of a dog for longer than a month? still, he misses being around dogs and still wonders where his long lost childhood friend ran away too ( though now that heās older, he doesnāt really believe his fatherās words ).Ā
he makes his way from the bus, following the address that was given and finally texts kyungri to let her know that heās here. donghyuckās nervous but he needs to find ways to make money, even though heās happy with his job at the daycare. itās anything to help he and jaemin in getting their own apartment, another step into helping jaemin detach from thinking he needs to take care of everyone ā especially his father.Ā
when the door opens, donghyuck greets kyungri happily.Ā āhi, iām donghyuck,ā he says with a smile.Ā āiām here to meet siro?ā
the doorbell rings and both kyungri and siro glance towards the door. siro being well behaved, stays behind while kyungri goes to the door, opening it without hesitation. and itās there that sheās greeted by the kid. he was more or less what she was expecting, he fitted the description or the image she had in her head. the boy introduces himself to kyungri as donghyuck. now she could put a name to the face at least, rather than calling him the kid constantly. kyungri smiles upon greeting donghyuck, waving. siro gets to her feet and is waltzing over to the doorway, curious as to who her mom is talking to. she had to be good, considering the fact that kyungri more or less ran her business from home. having new people come in and out of her home had left the dog being rather well disciplined.
ānice to meet you, donghyuck.ā kyungri says warmly. āiām park kyungri.ā she extends the greeting, introducing herself. she hears siro moving about inside and looks back over her shoulder, seeing that she had come over to the door to greet her possible new dog sitter. āand this little lady,ā kyungri steps aside so donghyuck can see what heās up against. āis siro.ā siro is not exactly a small dog. sheās a full sized, fluffy as hell chow chow. sheās beautiful though and is usually adored by all who love dogs, although sheās had the odd client or two be absolutely terrified of her.Ā ācome in, lets get you two acquainted. can i get you anything to eat or drink?ā kyungri asks.
BOW WOW.

BOW WOW.
ā§ ā @rkhaechan!
this trip to jeju island wasnāt out of the ordinary for park kyungri, in fact, going on business trips was a regular occurrence for her. sometimes, she wouldnāt have a say as to when or where she was going, and being a dog mom, it was important that her pup was in good hands at all times. so naturally, she goes into panic mode the moment she finds out her go to sitter isnāt available for the few days she is out in jeju with moonbok. who the heck is going to take care of siro while she is away. kyungri canāt cancel last moment and itās not as though she can leave siro here on her own in the apartment, thatād be a mistake in itself. she pauses, giving herself a moment to breath before working her magic. somehow, through the inter-webs she gets ahold of someone.
but theyāre not a dog sitter, not in the slightest, but from what sheās gathered, the kid seems to be good with dogs. as to why she didnāt contact an agency for dog sitting or send siro down to her brother for a couple of days? she hadnāt the luxury of time and siro was somewhat of a big dog, not everyone was prepared to take on a chow chow of her size. she reaches out to the kid, still doing her best to remain hopeful. kyungri sends through her contact details and organises a one on one meeting, and while sheāll be keeping her distance to see how the kid does with siro, sheāll also be able to ask questions and get to know them a little better. all seems well.
she sits cross-legged on her sofa with siro on that very day, phone in hand as she scrolls through comments of her latest youtube video, doing her best to kill time before siroās sitter comes by and meets her for the very first time.

@rkkyungri
āYouāre going to Jeju?! Moonbok, you just moved to Seoul a few days ago!ā
āI know, Mom! But thereāsā¦. I have to do something out there, ok? Iāll be back within a week, promise.ā
Itās pretty much official. His parents think heās completely nuts. Forget the MGAs, busking and the wholeĀ āgoing to be an idolā thing, this is what makes them question their sonās sanity.
No wonder Moonbok had been told to fund his little vacation by himself.
But when Kyungri of all people asked him if he was free, he couldnāt have said no. Not when it gave them a further opportunity to hang out. ā¦Or for him to fall for his senior even harder.
āāāāāāā
[Jeju Island]
The flight over had been interesting, to say the least. In a way, Moonbok was glad he bought his ticket at the last minute, meaning he and Kyungri were seated in different parts of the plane. At least that way, she couldnāt see how nervous and shy he was getting, though of course, that had ended once they were on the ground and collecting their bags.
Moonbok really hopes his face isnāt as red as it feels when Kyungri smiles over at him.
āUmā¦ I guess you want to go see your friend, right noona? Or are youā¦? ā he begins awkwardly, twirling a strand of hair around his finger unconsciously. That said, he assumes that will happen after they find the place theyāre staying at.
(In separate rooms, of course.)
āI mean, I donāt want to butt in on your time together!ā he babbles, shoving his hair behind his ear, now knowing his face was the same colour as his jacket and cursing himself internally.
āBut when youāre free, and no pressure or anything! But, do you want to hang outā¦. and goā¦ get something to eatā¦ together..?ā His voice trailing into a whisper and suddenly Moonbok thinks his parents are right.
Heās crazy. Crazy in love.
kyungri had only been here recently, having come to jeju after everything that happened on the mgas. well, that and her parents ambushing her in her apartment one afternoon. she just packed her things and left, after seeing that siro was in good hands, of course. but she really does love being in jeju, the air is fresh and crisp, unlike seoul. it reminds her a bit of home. even if itās an island rather than a populous city on the south east coast of the country.
inviting moonbok to come with her was somewhat done on whim, but she feels okay about it. and besides, sheās still feeling somewhat guilty for putting him through so much these past months, with the mgas and all. she thought he might like it, and it might motivate the both of them to go ahead and pursue their careers and dreams even more. they sit in different parts of the plane and regroup when they touch down on the island, having collected their things.Ā
āw-what friend is it that youāre talking about?ā she asks, raising a brow. did he mean hyun? whom happened to be an idol now, meaning he wouldnāt be able to hang out with her. busy schedule and all. or someone else? she wasnāt aware that anyone else that she knew was going to be here.Ā ācome on, moonbok. i invited you out here so we could hang.ā kyungri says, sliding her sunglasses up onto the top of her head.Ā āand yeah, i wanna hang out. letās go get something to eat. plane food sucks.ā she says with a grin.

( shoot day w. @rkkyungri )Ā
whenever he has a photoshoot, the people that he works with are a coin toss ā he never knows who the stylist is, or the makeup artist, or the hair stylist ā unless heās working with a specific company. so when he shows up with his manager to the photoshoot heās having today, dongmin doesnāt know what he should expect. the clothes heās given arenāt the usual street fashion that he had been used to wearing. it seems that heās being weaned off of those and into different styles and, honestly, heās really happy about it.Ā
itās much easier for him to smile or look stylish and whatnot, over acting like he was cool. he still doesnāt really know how he ever did that. (and still does sometimes.)Ā
so he lets himself be guided around, from the clothes to hair and then finally to makeup and his entire expression brightens when he recognizes who his makeup artist is going to be, his eyes curving into crescents ā his signature smile.Ā ānuna,ā he greets happily, waving at her as he makes his way over to the makeup chair, plopping himself down carefully.Ā āitās been a while~ā
most of her work is on a smaller scale; doing make-up for brides and parties, nothing excessive or weird. and this has never really bothered her, she never really wanted to go big or commercial with her make-up skills. she more or less only got into the industry to pay the bills. the looks she posts to her youtube channel are for fun, and although they are tutorials, she doesnāt take herself too seriously. however, once in a blue moon, an opportunity will come about that is much bigger than she is used to. sometimes itās make-up on set for something, like a music video or a drama, other times itās like today; sheās making a collective of models pretty.
sheās minding her own business, sorting through her collection of products that sheās sorted out and placed on the bench beside the large chair her guinea pig will be seated in. kyungri notices someone approaching and she doesnāt think much of it until she hears a rather familiar voice. itās endearing. she looks upwards only to be greeted by dongmin, a model whom sheās been able to work with in the past. kyungriās eyes widen, before then forming crescents as she smiles.
āah, dongmin!ā kyungri says fondly, clapping her hands together.Ā āit really has been, howāre you?ā she asks as the younger male takes a seat by her.Ā

He had been here for a long time by now, and if not for the fact that the stack was dwindling, he might as well have given up and just called it a day. Any other person might have said to themself not to give up, to keep on going and see the task to an end, but Youngjae frankly didnāt give a shit about it and just wanted to go home in his heated apartment. Maybe heād give out just a few more and then dump whatever was left.
Sheets of paper tucket in between thumb and index fingers his other hand was trying to warm whatever skin was exposed from beneath his fingerless gloves. Just then did he spot his next victim, and walked in front of a woman to block her path. The best fucking way to seem like a suspicious person, but he figured sheād understand the moment he handed her the paper. āHello. Could you take one of these?āĀ ā @rkars
still, going about her day, minding her own business. attending errands, crossing things off of her to-do list. kyungri liked accomplishing things. even small things. so when someone cuts in from of her without the slightestĀ bit of an apology, kyungriās brows furrow. the fuck? and then, immediately hands her a flyer. and now, this guy expects her to take it after that? maybe sheās overreacting but it seemed like somewhat of a dick move if you asked kyungri.
she rolls her eyes, sighing. kyungri takes the flyer without complaint, letting her eyes roll over the flyer and its details before looking up towards the boy. āa please might help you next time.ā kyungri sneers, flipping her sunglasses back over her eyes, stepping around the boy, gently bumping shoulders. kids these days.

ā you received aĀ royal flyerĀ and a purple gentiana!
jiwoo likes challenges, being outdoors and interacting with people, so handing out flyers to promote the company isnāt really something she would complain about. actually, sheās happy to do it during the break ā she feels useful and this is something sheās good at. with a genuine smile on her face, the girl leaves the building with a pile of flyers properly organized with a different flower each, these collected earlier from random gardens and stuck on the paper with a colorful tape.Ā
it doesnāt take long until she finds the first person to approach and does it without hesitating.Ā āhi! sorry to bother you, but would you take one of these?ā she asks softly, offering the flyer on top of her pile to the beautiful woman who sheād dare to bet that was already signed to some entertainment or modelling agency.Ā āhere you can find informations about royal entertainment and their upcoming events.āĀ ā āŗĖ³ā§ ą¼Ā ā @rkjiwoo
kyungri is going about her day, minding her own business until she is suddenly approached by a rather young, cute looking girl who seems to be handing out flyers ( which kyungri has seen a lot of ), accompanied by flowers. to her, she thinks that is rather a sweet gesture. she likes it.
āhi there,ā kyungri says, adjusting her sunglasses to sit atop of her head. she smiles, happily taking a flyer from the girl. āsure thing!ā the flyer she is given is accompanied by a beautiful purple flower, but sadly kyungri doesnāt know enough about gardens and flora to know what it is.Ā āoh, royal entertainment,ā kyungriĀ retorts with a nod, smiling.Ā āthank you, best of luck for handing out the rest of those!ā she says, gesturing towards the other flowers and flyers.
as she turns away from the girl, she puts the flower to her nose; smiling.
