Festive Feels | KNJ | Diwali Special

Pair: Namjoon x idol!reader

Summary: Namjoon and you go out on the streets of Seoul to celebrate the Festival of Light together for the first time. And as the night sky is adorned with dazzling lights and vibrant colours, illuminated with thousands of oil lamps, you rediscover the meaning of love and your connections. 

Genre: Fluff, idol reader, idol Namjoon, established relationship au

WC: 705

The city was alive with the warm glow of a thousand lights. Booths, people, and glowing lights brighten the heart of South Korea. In Seoul, amongst the vibrant colours and laughter, Namjoon and you walked hand in hand through the streets, enjoying the celebration of the Festival of Lights, Diwali. 

As the both of you walked through the streets, the air was filled with the scents of the festive delicacies and you just couldn’t help but resist the temptation to indulge in some traditional Indian sweets and food. You’re eyes tilted upwards, watching Namjoon savour a piece of Kaju Katli, his eyes lighting up with delight at the sweetness that coated it. 

Kaju Katli is a cashew fudge treat that is terrifically smooth, thin, and melts in your mouth. 

“Oh, this is amazing,” He turned to you, mouth still full as he proclaimed his love for the food. “How have I never tried this before.” 

You chuckled. “Diwali is all about sharing happiness and delicious food with our loved ones. So, this is perfect.” You leaned into his embrace. “Oh… the food.” Just the thought made you salivate.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, the real magic of Diwali began. You pulled Namjoon onto a bridge. The cityscape slowly transformed into a wonderland as buildings, homes and streets started to be adorned with countless lights and festive decorations. It felt as if the city came alive for the festival. 

You pulled Namjoon off the bridge, walking in the opposite direction, as the both of you found a quiet corner in a nearby park. People around you were lighting oil lamps and it was tradition to create beautiful rangoli patterns on the ground. Buying a few packets of rice, chalk powder, coloured sand, and flower petals, you headed over to a fairly empty walkway and started. 

The both of you were eager to try your hand at it. Pouring small amounts at a time, colours painted the ground a beautiful shade as you carefully crafted intricate designs. Namjoon watched you intently, occasionally offering a helping hand.  

As you worked, you explained the significance of rangoli to him. “These patterns are meant to bring good luck and ward off evil.” As you finish off another pattern, you continue. “They are also a symbol of hospitality, welcoming guests into our homes.”

Namjoon nodded, his gaze never leaving your hands as you worked skillfully to form a delicate lotus pattern. “I love studying about your traditions and I’m honoured to be a part of your Diwali celebration.”

With the completed rangoli sitting in front of you, the both of you lit up your oil lamps and placed them in the centre. The soft, flickering light created a magical atmosphere and you felt like you were sharing an intimate moment with your beloved amidst the grand celebration around you. 

Children were screaming and adults were working around in the booths - but it felt like your own little bubble of peace.  

As the night sky darkened, the fireworks illuminated the galaxy. You and Namjoon looked up, faces reflecting the vibrant colours and patterns that burst above you. 

“It’s like a starry night but with so much more.” Namjoon remarked, arm coming around your waist to bring you closer to his body. 

You smiled at his analogy. “Diwali is a reminder that light will always triumph over darkness - a time to celebrate new beginnings and the victory of good over evil.”

Namjoon leaned down to place a gentle kiss on your forehead. “I’m grateful to share this beautiful festival with you and I hope our love can shine as bright as these lights.”

Tilting your head up to meet his vulnerable gaze - your hearts connected. “Namjoon, our love has always been a beacon, guiding us through our darkest times. It was, is, and will always be.”

As you refocused your attention on the fireworks that painted the night sky with radiant colours, you felt a sense of unity and togetherness - reminding you of the beauty of sharing traditions and creating new memories with the one you love. 

At that moment, you realise that loving truly was the most powerful light of all, illuminating your lives with warmth, joy, and endless possibilities.

word count: 6.5 k

summary:  After you were transferred into a different hospital department, you’re still getting used to the two things that bothered you in the first place upon arrival; the scream and the cries the children would make when a nurse, like you, is approaching them every time. . . as well as the annoying yet handsome doctor who never fails to test your limits since day one, but you are not the kind of person that easily backs down from these new challenges. You convinced yourself that you’re headstrong, but does your heart lie on the same page as your mind?

prologue | part one | part 2 

The jitters you began to develop while on your way to work today haven’t cease despite the amounts of deep breaths you took so early in the morning. The sun was only beginning to come up by the time you picked up your first cup of coffee in the nearby café, located less than a block away from the main building of the Severance Hospital, and yet it did nothing but increase the nervousness within you tenfold. The last time you remember feeling like this was when you were starting your first rotation as a licensed nurse, fresh from nursing school and was yet to hone the skills necessary in real-life work.

What one of your professors had told you was the truth; you ought to throw the things you learned in textbooks out of the window by the start of practicing your profession within the hospital setting.

And you were throwing every bit of studying you did last weekend, gone was your ability to recall the videos online that were supposedly helpful to refresh your memory regarding pediatric nursing as you embark on the same stairs you climb every morning. Except you’re about to take 30 steps more than usual, and you only got a second glimpse of the grand doors of the maternity unit then taking a turn left to do 15 steps more before landing on the third floor of the hospital. The whole floor housing the pediatric unit.

Gone are the usual beige walls that covered the majority of the hospital’s interior when you stepped into the main hallway of the your new ward. Instead of the aforementioned color, the walls on both of your sides were now covered with more than just one pigment. Animated fishes of different varieties were painted atop the waves that went on and on until the end of the corridor. It’s like visiting a marine park in Seoul where aquarium windows reach from floor to ceiling, though the fishes are unmoving.

You took a sip from your cup hastily when you arrived in the nurses’ locker room, where you’re about to change into scrubs but you left your tongue burning in the process. The usual pink and white patterned uniform was not present in your designated locker and was replaced with a colorful, confetti-like patterned top and plain navy pants to match the background of your scrub shirt.

It was awful, you internally groaned as you grabbed it out from its hanger.

The time was 6:20 AM when you stepped out of the changing room, and most of the crowd that filled the quarters reduced to merely two people which made you panic a little. Compared to the former ward you worked from, it wasn’t until quarter to seven that you’re about to start knowing the patients you will have for the day based on the hand-off report from the previous nurse in shift. But now, not only you were lost in place, but also lost in time and orientation.

This was not what you discussed yesterday over the phone with Ms. Jung, the head nurse of this pediatric unit.  In reality, the conversation you had with her did not even reach this topic; the unspoken rules that only exist exclusively in this ward.

You brushed off any stray hairs that lingered in front of your sight before you gulped down the rest of your coffee—which is still quite hot, by the way—and zoomed out of the room and towards the back doors of the nurses’ station.

“Oh, here’s our new addition to this ward!” a person who wears the same scrubs as yours, presumably a nurse like you, called the attention of those who are within the spacious station. The walls were painted a light blue tone, with no patterns that matched the design of the walls of the corridor. The main oval table in the middle of the station was filled with amounts of files and papers stacked and clipped into binders for each patient that is currently confined in the ward. Little to no pens did not litter the surface at all, as those can be found in the clutch of other healthcare staff or safe within the deep pockets stitched into their uniforms.

After scanning briefly the area for no more than seven seconds, you turned your body towards where the sound of the voice came from. At one of the corners of the station, where the computers are located at the table below the receiving counters, stood a man in front of it. No doubt another nurse as he adorns the same uniform, but your eyes were mesmerized at how he fits the scrubs.

Like he was built to become a pediatric nurse in the first place.

“Ms. Jung is currently busy at the back room.” he pointed behind him, not far off was a room separated by a blue curtain beside another entrance into the station. You noticed from his statement that he is not from the night shift but rather someone who will be joining you today. Hopefully, because you still feel like a lost kid at a grocery store.

He smiled, the whites of his eyes are nearly unrecognizable with the way it mimicked the curve of his lips, “I’m given the opportunity to guide you shortly before we start our rounds. Hello, I am Jimin, and welcome to the Pediatric ward!”

Jimin’s smile was infectious as your lips curved into a small smile, “Thank you for the greetings, I am _____.”

Your interaction with him somewhat gained a few audiences in the station, most of them started to assess your presence as the new nurse in the unit. Out of all the schedules of shifts you were allowed to choose, you rather chose the morning shift as your body clock was accustomed to waking up early.

But you don’t know that deep within the thoughts of others, especially those who are about to start the hand-off report to the next nurses in shift that will accompany you today, that you were brave to choose the hectic mornings that you will have from here on end.

Not far from the station, some footsteps began to trudge their way through the still empty hallways of the pediatric ward. While you were oriented by nurse Jimin with the location of different instruments used and restocked in the medical carts, the other nurses were starting to exchange information before the shift officially starts, before the doctors officially made their presence known in the station, waiting for nurses to instantly report the progress of each of their patient’s health and well-being.

The increased number of pediatric patients since last year was done with the strict routine that a doctor has applied on his team of healthcare professionals. With the emphasis on the word professionals, he meant that those who have gained their license to practice healthcare and can easily understand the instructions he would dictate without another repetition. He’s the kind of doctor who is passionate about treating each of his patients but refuses to show even a drop of empathy towards his team.

That is admirable, so to say. To see a doctor who’s not slacking off and is concerned with the individual needs of his patients, especially since his clients are children spanning from days old to weeks, up until to those teenagers who are a day away from turning 18. Yes, they’re still placed within the pediatric ward if they are even hours away from their 18th birthday. It’s hospital policy.

“Over there are computer carts, though there’s only four as we’re still in the phase of turning from paper documents to electronic medical records.” Jimin explained the situation on the large table in the center,

“Though there is one doctor who prefers the use of those computer carts, so you have to learn it within this day. I’ll—” he stopped to duck under the built-in table, beneath the computers installed on the station desks where you peek down to find pocketbooks lined up, “Here are the manuals, and I’d really love to show you how they work but I’ll have to receive my shift hand-offs right now before they come.” The orientation for you came to a halt when he mouthed you an apology, pointing at Ms. Jung who seemed to be unoccupied with any work at the moment.

The curtains have been drawn open by the time you meet head nurse Jung, who greeted you with a warm smile, “My apologies, I have been busy filing necessary papers but now I can continue where we—or you and Jimin left off.”

“Oh, he was about to show me how the computer attached to those carts works.” you keened, showing a manual on your grip as you begin to flip the pages.

“They nearly have the same user interface as what we use within the ward, but it gets kind of tricky to link the data input into the devices in this station. Come with me and I’ll show you how it works.” Ms. Jung was quick to approach the carts while you made a segue to throw your empty cup into the appropriate trash bin.

Though while booting up the computer, instead of focusing your mind towards the instructions shown on the pocketbook, you were rather distracted by the footsteps that approached you. Or the station, for that matter.

“Good morning Dr. Jeon!” Ms. Jung called for the tall man wearing a doctor’s typical white coat, his side profile was what attracted your sight to him instead of the bright light emitting from the screen of the computer beside you and your head nurse. Finally, he turned his head towards yours when you saw him completely.

God, he looks too young to be a doctor expert in his chosen specialty. There were nearly no blemishes that covered his face, no evidence of what struggles and stress he had faced during his internship. In fact, his youthful face, accentuated by the shape, seems like those who are about to start their residency. Fresh from med school, all-knowing kind of doctor.

Ms. Jung sensed that you two were focused on each other when she continues to speak, “This is our n--”

With one glance at your ID pinned at the side of your scrubs, he finally talked in a monotonous tone, “You, nurse _____. Let’s start the rounds.”

Both you and Ms. Jung were dumbfounded from his statement, though it didn’t last a minute and she started to convince him to give you time to adjust into this new atmosphere, “But doctor, I was about to orient them with how things run in the morning. Catered to what every other nurse this shift is accustomed to,” somehow, her words were lacking information. What routine do nurses have in this unit? Does it differ from what you’re used to?

He only cleared his throat, “I presumed they came from another unit, yes?” the head nurse confirmed immediately, “then they knew what they’re doing in this hospital. Choose a cart and let’s go.”

You stammered, “I-I, uh…” you hesitantly grabbed onto the bar of the cart, keeping the pocketbook inside one of its free compartments before catching up to the hasty doctor who’s leading the way down the corridor.

Back in the station, another nurse named Seulgi caught the sudden interaction between you and him near the entrance of the station, a wave of goosebumps appeared on her body as she gathering her mint green clipboard filled with the hand-off reports she was supposed to relay to you before Doctor Jeon arrived. She didn’t expect that he would be strutting earlier than his expected time.

She ran off of her seat in front of the computer, hoping to catch you and him still in the corridors before you enter a patient’s room.

 If you were to describe Dr. Jeon in one word, it would be cold. . . or cold-looking, if that’s even a word that any online dictionaries would confirm. One look at his face would tell you that he’s serious, like he hasn't had a cup of coffee nor a bun of bread to eat this morning. He doesn’t participate in any chit-chat much like the other doctors in this hospital. Most of the doctors you interact with are pleasant to participate in little talks, whether it concerns the patient’s health or simply about your personal life. Though with him, it was hard to initiate conversation at first glance.

You can see from the stitch embroidered above the chest pocket of his white coat, displaying his full name as Jeon Jungkook, MD. Weirdly for you, it sounds familiar.

Is he the most known doctor in this hospital? Is he the one responsible for the influx of--

“I suggest you stop daydreaming and start assessing the vitals of patient 325.” Jungkook, or Dr. Jeon rebuked. His left arm was still holding the door wide open for you and your cart to go inside. He’s only demanding for vitals yet he made you push the trolley from the station.

Thankfully, your routine of putting your handheld equipment in the pockets of your scrub and hanging the stethoscope over your neck made it easier for you this moment from embarrassing yourself. Placing the cart onto the side of the room, you approached the patient who seemed to be coiling himself in the arms of his mother. Seemingly scared to see a new face.

The tone of your voice shifts to a gentle one as you show the kid what you have in your pockets. Regretful to only pack 3 mint candies for you to consume later on, instead of buying any lollipops to give. While you were busy tending to the child, Dr. Jeon was already conversing with what you assumed to be the father of the child at the couch next to the bed. The mother joins soon after.

“Schedule another blood count for the patient later, I want the results by tomorrow so the family can prepare themselves for discharge. And--” he paused, seeing you only using a tickler and a pen, “why are you not inputting my orders into the computer?”

“I’ll attempt to encode it soon,” you tried to reason

“Don’t you know how computers work?” he disputed, right in front of the family of the patient. You feel embarrassed, like someone poured a bucket full of cold water over your body yet all you could feel was tears threatening to spill from your eyes at that moment.

It was an unnecessary outburst that he exhibited, much less in front of his patient as you blinked once, twice before you bowed yourself in front of the patient before leaving the room, dragging the cart from behind as you pulled the door open. A flustered Seulgi was waiting just outside the door when you stepped out.

“I should’ve approached you since you entered the station earlier, I didn’t know he would be choosing you to accompany him so quickly.” She managed to tell you, slightly out of breath from running after you, “I’m Seulgi by the way.”

You cleared your throat before replying, “I’m _____. Can you try to catch me up with the reports? As well as this one,” you gestured to the cart you’re still holding. Seulgi was quick to nod, immediately opening her mouth and pointing to and from the monitor prior to reporting the patients you will be handling today.

“You weren’t supposed to be accompanying Dr. Jeon during the rounds this morning, I thought they were still Dr. Park’s patient and yet she hadn't shown up in the station earlier.” she explained.

A tsked from behind startled you and her, “I am pretty sure I had informed our head nurse Ms. Jung about that,” Dr. Jeon said in a matter-of-fact tone, “I never knew the experienced nurse who entered our unit is apparently not equipped enough in what we’re dealing with here.”

You took a deep breath before responding calmly, “With all due respect, I believe that I am perfectly capable to handle the workflow in this ward Dr. Jeon. If only you allowed me a little time to be oriented with the equipment you used here.” you gestured to the cart, “I am fine with being scolded for my wrongdoings, but doing that in front of the patient looks unprofessional on our part. Especially yours, doctor.” you continued, seeing his facial expression falter for a second, then disappearing as if he’s not guilty of what has occurred. First day of your work in this ward and you’re already looking forward to going home, and perhaps going back to the maternity ward sooner than you planned.

No way you’re letting anyone, much less a doctor, undervalue your skills that you developed over time. “You should know the demands of every patient prior to arriving in this unit, nurse _____. We suffer from the shortages due to incompetence from our former staff and I don’t want you to become a deadweight for us, tarnishing the reputation we built as well as the lives we’ve saved.” he huffed, his eyes glaring at yours for a few seconds.

“I won’t be a deadweight, I can assure you that.” you vowed, tightening your grip over the trolley.

“Or you won’t last another day.” he added to your statement, then he turned around and proceeded to walk away from where you and Seulgi were still standing. She only cheered you in a whispered tone, as excessive noise is prohibited in the hallways, before she trudged back to the station.

You went off to follow the footsteps of the doctor in front of you, being aware of what you’re about to prepare for the next patient. You believed that he’s doing rounds according to the chronological order of his patients’ rooms, and so you flipped over the paper of the next patient.

During the course of the rounds, there was tension between you and him. Though you were able to answer the questions he threw at you, he was still hostile with you. Maybe he’s like that with everyone except his patients. Head nurse Jung managed to see you from afar, walking a few feet apart from Dr. Jeon as you recognized the guilt and the pending apology she would give you through her eyes.

Truth to be told, Ms. Jung knew how ruthless Dr. Jeon can be. It was a mistake on her part to not check her emails from time to time as she missed the email from Dr. Park sent yesterday about how she would be taking a day off, never knowing that he would be the one to treat her patients in her behalf today.

By the time head nurse Jung was finished explaining the reason you were too early to face the most demanding doctor in their unit, he was long gone from the station. Finding no purpose to stay as Dr. Jeon already managed to see you inputting the data, which means it would appear right on his laptop when he comes back to his office.

“You see how he’s like a phantom lurking around until he makes his presence known when you make a mistake.” Nurse Jimin teased while you and him were on a short lunch break, “though I applaud you for standing up to him, other nurses around here gossiped at how he was the reason for the staff shortages we’re experiencing in this ward.”

You tilt your head in question, “Why would he be?”

“Some of us here are kind of afraid of him, you see how he’s gentle with his patients and their relatives yet he treats others terribly, like how he was earlier with you.”

“How did you know---”

“Word travels fast, I guess.” he chuckled before taking a bite from his lunch. With a mouthful of food, he still replied, “Seulgi heard the commotion, the doors here can only muffle sounds but we can recognize his voice whenever Jungkook is aggravated.”

“Are you close to him?” you asked.

“Yeah, we attended the same nursing school.” Jimin casually replied.

You gasped, “wait, he’s also a nurse?”

“Yep, that is why he can criticize our work from time to time. Though he applied for medical school right after we got our license.” Jimin was quick on consuming his meal, now already packing his lunch boxes splayed onto the small coffee table in the lounge room tucked behind the station.

No more than a minute and he spoke, “It was nice talking with you, _____!” and waved his hand goodbye before he was off to continue his tasks before his shift ended. Which leaves you alone to yourself, perhaps with some other nurses whom you had yet to meet or introduce yourself personally.

The awkward atmosphere after Jimin left returns. And now you attempt to consume the rest of your packed lunch so you can start medical administrations towards your patient. You recalled earlier at how head nurse Jung would make the effort, insisting you to let her assign you to other patients that are not handled by Dr. Jeon, but you kindly declined since you are becoming accustomed to the needs of those patients. Not mentioning how you are determined to prove him wrong by successfully doing the tasks delegated to you, as well as adding your own insights that may be helpful in determining the prognosis of every patient assigned to you and him.

The empathetic side of you was quick to forgive his actions earlier, call it the attitude that you essentially developed back in nursing school. You never once doubted your ability when you started working in this hospital, and your evaluation forms from your former head nurse can prove that. As head nurse Jung has told you, you were still about to learn the difference of workflow that you established back in the maternity ward with what you’re currently grasping in their unit. You were never meant to work with him on your first day here, perhaps on day three with what she has scheduled for you and the other nurses in the morning shift.

You were glad to have Jimin and Seulgi, though she was long gone when you finished your rounds with Dr. Jeon. . . and the fact that she’s quite the blabbermouth with what has transpired between you and him travelled so quickly, from one mouth and ear to another.

The rest of your shift was peaceful, to say the least. You guessed that Dr. Jeon won’t drop by until later after your work so you were busy compiling documents needed to be printed and filed according to the patient’s medical information, as well as making discharge plans with other patients that are bound to be leaving the hospital the next day. Your hands were aching to a point where you keep shaking them from the pain that radiates through your fingertips, and time seemed to pass by when you saw that it was already 15 minutes since the end of your shift.

Most of the nurses you recognize earlier in the morning, including Jimin, are nowhere to be found at this time. They must’ve given their hand-off reports earlier before the time struck 14:00. While you were busy, you were beginning to proceed with your own reports towards the next nurse in shift.

“It’s your first day and you’re handling Dr. Jeon’s behavior,” nurse Nari, the one who’s about to take over your patients in the afternoon till evening, mused. “How was he?”

“Tolerable” you mumble, afraid that he might hear you even though he was still not in the nurses’ station.

She laughed only in return, “Oh he was intolerable for me on my first day here, but soon enough he softened up to me.”

You raised your brows, “Are you and him. . ?”

Nari shifted to full-on giggling, “No! But maybe someday when he’s ready to start his love life, I might do a little flirting here and there. For now, he’s focused on being a doctor full-time; he never bothered to go out on dates and he’s always found in his office at any time of the day.”

You hummed with the information she has revealed to you, though at first you couldn’t care less about the little deets about his personal life. Silence lingers for a bit before you continue to wrap up your work for today, “It was nice talking to you, Nari.”

“You too, _____.” She smiled before waving you goodbye as you were off to find head nurse Jung, itching to go back home in the apartment you are renting two blocks away from Severance hospital.

A week has passed since you started to continue your nursing practice in the pediatric ward. So far, you have set up a routine you follow religiously that enables you to finish all of your work on time. Though there are still a few things that you’re still getting used to,

The first is children who cry when you’re just about to give them syrup medications daily, and the second is the most demanding doctor that ever existed in this ward. . . or rather in this hospital. Although you cannot make a concise statement when you haven’t attempted to transfer to other facilities in this institution other than the maternity and pediatric unit.

There are moments where you see him in a good light; Dr. Jeon Jungkook’s attempt to give a small smile to other staff (or in this case it was just the head nurse and Jimin) and only hummed whenever you give your suggestions pertaining to the well-being of the patients you two were handling every day. Oftentimes you see him in a bad light; a short-tempered doctor who’s trying hard to tolerate other nurses’ attempts at providing a satisfactory result that reaches his criteria or whatever standard he has curated on his own and for the others to follow.

You haven’t had the time to figure out what kind of level he expects others to reach, considering that you were not always assigned to him. With the way the head nurse mixes up the assignments so you could take a breather from him, and for every nurse to ensure the quality of their work is up to what he wants in this unit. You see, you were late to find out that he’s newly appointed head of the pediatric department by the time you entered the ward last week, which only means that the internal pressure he has clearly elevated to satisfy not only the patients but also the administration of the hospital.

Gossips inside the ward would say that he’s working much harder than every other doctor in this institution to chase one thing, and that is to become the medical director of this whole institution. He has no time to create a network of influential people when his name alone can create a buzz in this place, no matter what department or ward you’re currently in. 

A loud clang of what you assumed are clipboards surrounded the ward so suddenly, snapping your focus from what you were currently typing on the computer when you hear the hushed scolding coming from the nook of the station. With the days you spent recognizing others’ faces and voices, you ought to know that Dr. Jeon was hot-headed today and he’s tormenting yet another staff member late in the morning. 

It was a miracle that he was not popping blood vessels when he has a hard time controlling his emotions from bursting like a balloon. Not long and head nurse Jung was quick to rescue another damsel from getting an earful from Dr. Jeon, like the way you experienced on your first day. You didn’t bother to look behind to see the commotion happening behind the curtains until someone tapped your shoulders. 

You looked around to see head nurse Jung, a kind smile adorning her features before gesturing towards Dr. Jeon, who was hasty in checking the charts from the clipboards containing his patients’ profiles. You knew the look she was giving you when you stood up from your seat and approached the grumpy doctor at his seat from the other side of the station. 

With the professional front you’ve practiced every night every time you’re about to face him, you asked “Are there other tasks you want me to take over for nurse Gaeul?” 

He only sighed before looking up at your face. A tired look replaced his usual features before he glanced back at the computer, “Just keep an eye on patient 302 every 15 minutes, report to me when her temperature increased above 38 degrees celsius. Also, check her heart rate.” 

You only offered a single reply of agreement before fetching the patient’s paper chart in one of the clipboards he’s currently looking at next to his laptop. While your hands are about to made contact with the rigid plastic covering, Dr. Jeon was quick to grab your wrist. “Record it on a new paper, nurse _____.” 

His tone of voice was distant to the usual sound emitting from his mouth on a daily basis. It was smoother, a tone of softness lingers when he talked to you today compared to other days. Or is it just his voice he’s using when he was sucked out of energy to do nearly anything productive for a while. 

You only commented, “Seems like you’re tired, when did you last step out of this hospital Dr. Jeon?” 

Although you attempted making small talk, he felt like doing otherwise. “None of your business.”

“Okay.” you awkwardly replied, fleeing from the station after you mumble your apologies towards him. You hoped that no one heard of it except you and him, while he remained unresponsive in his seat with his right hand massaging his temples after you trudge your way out of the station. 

It was after you submitted your charts when you thought you would see the last of him, now that you’re given a day off from working tomorrow. You only hoped that the apartment above yours would settle down from making too much noise during your free time, you were generous enough to give them a few days (3 days would suffice in your own opinion) to completely move their stuff into the building. You didn’t know your new neighbors yet, but you were confident to assume that the people above your floor are the new tenants as the apartment has been vacant for a while. 

You took a shower when you arrived back home. Your slumped posture welcoming the warm shower, sighing in relief with the perfect temperature as you felt yourself getting sleepy in the process. A nap after this would appease your free schedule, containing no plans to even step outside and socialize with your friends who are working in other parts of Seoul city. 

Though your plans didn’t go to plan when you realized you forgot to take out yesterday’s trash. Now clad within your pajamas at 18:00, you begrudgingly picked up the plastic bags lying at the little foyer of your apartment and wore your sandals lying on the steps. You approached the elevators at the end of the dimmed hall, pressing the button going down as you patiently waited for the doors to open.

You nearly dropped the trash bags in your clutch when you saw a familiar face greeting your sight when the doors swung open. Inside the elevator stood Jimin, whose hair was still wet and was also holding recyclable trash on his forearms. A smile grew on both of your faces when you recognized each other. 

“I didn’t know you lived here?!” you exclaimed during the elevator ride down the building.

He replied, “Well, we just moved in days ago. We’re residing on the 5th floor.” 

“Don’t tell me you’re the one who’s been moving stuff in the middle of the night.” you mused, to which he only shyly rubbed his neck probably in embarrassment. 

“We’re sorry about that,”

You shook your head, “No worries though, welcome to the building!”

The elevator doors opened by the time you finished your small talk, but deep inside you were hoping to chat more with him as he has become a close friend of yours since day one. Compared to what you are currently wearing, Jimin seems to be preparing to go somewhere with the way he’s wearing a nice outfit; donning a striped shirt with black jeans and boots to compliment his figure. It was a miracle to still be fit despite the stress you and him are facing nearly every morning. 

“By the way, we’re going out to celebrate our moving in. Perhaps you want to join?” he told you while taking both of your time walking towards the back of the building, where the trash segregation is done manually. You instantly nodded in agreement, granting your wish to hang out with him at least once outside of work.

“We,” you wondered, “who did you move in with? Is it your significant other?” 

A chuckle left his throat only, almost as if he’s too shy to reveal who it is. “Well, I think you know who it is. I have been living with him though it feels like I’m the one who always occupies the apartment because he’s not home most of the time.” 

“He. . . who is he? Jungkook?” you joked, while Jimin’s glance was focused behind your figure.

“What’s funny about my name, miss _____?” Jungkook, once again, made himself known in the worst way possible. You nearly choked in your own spit, eyes widening in astoundment with your reply answering Jimin’s words. 

“Nothing doc-- I mean sir,” you coughed, “Jungkook-ssi. Welcome to the building you two.” You quickly strode away from them towards the glass door entrance of the back of the building. 

While you wanted to cower away for the rest of the night, Jimin never failed to remind you when and where you two (and Jungkook, apparently) will meet for dinner. “Let’s meet down at the lobby in an hour, _____.” 

You only raised your right arm, with your hand gesture agreeing to the arrangement.  

As the time arrived, you were clad from your sleepwear to wearing a simple shirt and jeans to dinner. They were precisely on time when you found them in the lobby once the elevator you’re in arrived on the ground floor. Compared to the usual white coat and formal outfit that adorns Jungkook’s frame, his outfit for tonight consists of loose clothing that barely compliments his figure yet screams comfortability. 

“Tell us when you’re done ogling at me because I’m hungry.” he snapped you out of your thoughts while looking smug. If he weren’t that handsome you could’ve smacked him--

Rather, you quickly averted your gaze towards his companion by his side, “You look great, Jimin.” 

A huff was barely inaudible from the only doctor in the group before exiting the building first, leaving you and Jimin to initiate the conversation on your own. Though he didn’t fail to include Jungkook into the talk, his responses were clipped to a few words only before resorting to silence. He was consumed with the handheld device in his palm most of the time, while simultaneously walking along the pavement. 

“Is he always that cold and harsh when meeting strangers?” You can’t help but ask Jimin who’s walking by your side. 

He replied to your question after looking cautiously at the man walking a few feet away from the two of you, “Not always, though he has the ability to sense those who are trying to score a date with him after their initial conversation with him.”

“So he doesn’t do relationship?” 

Jimin shook his head, looking back at Jungkook who did not make any attempt to remark about his roommate’s statement. “As far as we have lived together, he has never brought a date back home in the last few years.” 

The amount of pork belly you and Jungkook had grilled over later was not quantifiable with your fingers, but you three were still not incoherent enough to count the number of soju bottles that you have drunk during the span of dinner. You were still safe from stumbling your way back home with them. As much as your mind could still absorb the events tonight, you were still capable of comparing the sudden shift in Jungkook’s behavior as it was influenced by the alcohol content of the beverage. 

Your vision could barely capture how he looked tonight after drinking; red-faced and the creases between his brows were nowhere to be found. His eyes were bigger, brighter than the usual sharp stare that your set of eyes meet nearly every morning. The conversation you barely made through with him was now flowing at ease, effectively getting to know each other even though there’s a big possibility that you might forget about it when you wake up the next day.

“Does baby fever exist among the staff in the maternity ward?” Jimin curiously asked out of the blue, which made you choke on the soju shot you’re currently taking. Meanwhile, Jungkook only laughed drunkenly in response. 

“I don’t know how to answer that, but in my experience, I hadn’t thought of it. I mean, babies are cute when they’re still babies, not when they enter the age of 18 months.” 

Jimin hummed, still looking sober among the three of you despite drinking the same amount of alcohol, “Well, what convinced you to join the pediatric unit. Knowing that you’re aware of the ages of the patients we’re treating?” 

Okay. That was a hard question. Rather than replying first, you pick up another slice of grilled pork to eat and ponder more about your answer. The truth can inevitably cause a feud with the involved departments, good thing you have an ounce of sobriety within you at that moment. 

“Is it because of me, huh? You haven’t been able to take your eyes off of me--” Jungkook smugly replied. 

You interrupted him with a scoff, “Get off your high horse, I didn’t know you even exist until I saw your stupid face that morning!” Jimin only laughed when his roommate’s face became stern, with a pout that only appears when he’s had enough alcohol in his system. 

“How is my face stupid!? Children adore me whenever they see me, but with you, they suddenly cry. This face is the reason many people want me. How about you, huh?” Jungkook retorted, his voice slurring more than ever. 

You were about to answer back when Jimin suddenly covered your mouth and Jungkook’s, “You two had enough for tonight, even when you’re drunk you’re still getting on each other’s nerves. And you can’t use your normal voices, we’re not in a bar with booming music to raise your voices!”

Jungkook still tried to respond, even if the sounds were muffled to the point that you can’t comprehend the words he was saying but you were sure that he’s insulting you behind Jimin’s hand. Though it seemed funny at first for Jimin to see how the two of you are acting, he was worried after the bad looks you two were gaining inside the restaurant. 

“I think it’s time we head back home, you guys.” You couldn’t agree more, wanting to make Jungkook disappear from your sight at that moment.

BIOGRAPHY.

      the   park   family   is   one   that   doesn't   need   an   introduction.   an   old   money   family   with   wealth   that   dates   back   before   anyone   cares   to   remember.   most   known   for   owning   one   of   seoul's   most   popular   and   luxury   store   filled   department   stores,   hotels,   food,   and   more   (   similar   to   lotte   corporation   ).   the   park   family   is   one   bound   to   go   down   in   history   as   one   of   seoul's   most   influential,   and   one   of   the   wealthiest.   

     park   hwayoung,   the   youngest   daughter   of   the   coveted   family   had   been   the   epitome   of   wealth   the   moment   she   attended   one   of   her   family's   grand   openings   for   the   first   time.   she   was   nineteen   then,   and   immediately   captured   the   media's   attention.   with   beauty   that   could   rival   that   of   the   time's   most   popular   idols   and   actresses,   it   was   no   surprise   that   she   became   the   object   of   many   chaebol's   affections.   hwayoung   was   interested   in   none   of   it,   completly   interested   in   those   who   think   showering   her   in   gifts   would   be   enough   to   call   her   their   own.   she   was   only   interested   in   going   to   college—   yonsei   university,   to   be   exact,   and   it's   there   that   she   meets   her   future   husband,   lim   jiwoon.

      jiwoon,   unlike   the   other   suitors   that   crossed   hwayoung's   path,   did   not   come   from   wealth.   sure,   his   family   lived   comfortably,   but   there   were   no   chauferred   cars   or   professionally   cooked   dinners   every   night.   the   two   met   during   a   blind   double   date,   instantly   connecting   over   their   shared   love   of   matcha,   hatred   of   coffee   and   green   grape   tarts.   from   that   moment   on,   the   rest   was   history.   they   became   engaged   while   celebrating   their   graduation   from   yonsei,   and   married   a   little   over   a   year   later.   the   couple   were   a   big   slow   about   having   children,   and   once   they   did,   they   would   only   have   one   baby   girl.

      hanui,   quickly   nicknamed   honey   by   her   family,   instantly   became   the   apple   of   everyone's   eye.   the   only   granddaughter,   hanui   is   instantly   shown   what   it   means   to   be   spoiled.   no   matter   what   she   wants,   she   barely   has   to   ask   before   it's   in   her   possession.   most   might   say   it's   bad   to   spoil   a   child   to   this   extent,   but   the   little   girl   still   knew   what   it   meant   to   be   grateful   for   everything   she   ever   received.   as   a   teen,   growing   up   in   the   beginning   era   of   youtube   vlogs,   hanui   grew   an   instant   attraction   to   it.   she   loved   watching   her   favorite   youtubers   show   off   their   lifestyles,   so   why   couldn't   she   do   the   same?   it's   shortly   after   her   seventeenth   birthday,   after   being   gifted   a   camera,   that   hanuihoney   is   born.   

      at   first,   hanui   is   a   little   nervous   to   show   her   face,   due   in   part   to   which   family   she   came   from.   she   was   showing   the   intimate   parts   of   her   life   from   the   four   corners   of   her   bedroom,   and   when   she   whould   go   out   with   her   equally   wealthy   friends.   it's   when   she's   twenty   that   hanui   does   a   face   reveal,   and   after   garnering   1m   subscribers   in   her   first   few   years   without   showing   her   face,   that   number   skyrockets   even   higher   once   she   finally   does   so.   it's   not   unheard   of   for   someone   with   a   high   following   to   become   the   face   of   a   brand,   and   this   happens   with   hanui.   she   goes   from   a   social   media   star   to   having   her   face   on   a   billboard   in   seemingly   no   time,   and   as   her   own   wealth   grows,   hanui   figures   it's   time   to   start   living   on   her   own.

      after   much   discussion   with   her   family,   hanui   leaves   south   korea   behind   to   land   in   new   york,   where   she   looks   for   greater   opportunities.   she   finds   her   place   in   the   social   scene   of   new   york,   and   gets   invited   to   fashion   week   for   the   first   time,   where   she   makes   a   memorable   splash.   it's   been   about   five   years   since   hanui   moved   to   new   york,   and   while   she   attempts   to   not   end   up   on   reputation.com,   she's   failing   miserably.

HEADCANONS.

hanui's   parents   divorced   when   she   was   twenty   one,   which   had   become   the   gossip   of   the   year.   there   had   been   problems   in   their   relationship,   and   sadly,   most   of   it   was   stemming   from   hwayoung's   selfishness.   growing   up   spoiled   much   like   her   own   daughter,   hwayoung   was   a   woman   who   could   never   see   more   than   just   herself   at   times.   when   they   divorced,   jiwoon   attempted   to   keep   things   civil,   but   their   relationship   unfortunately   could   not   be   salvaged.   

hanui's   social   media   handles   are   a   play   on   "honey   honey".   when  it   comes   to   her   content,   she   has   always   been   classified   as   more   of   a   lifestyle   content   creator.   when  she   first   began,   she   wouldn't   show   her   face   aside   from   glimpses   of   it   every   so   often.   most   could   consider   her   as   a   "faceless"   youtuber,   but   the   day   she   did   a   full   face   reveal,   her   social   media   blew   up   even   more.

above   all   else,    she's   a   socialite.   she   loves   going   to   events,   private  or   public,   and   she  especially   will   have   her   camera/phone   with   her   where   permitted.   she's   not   too   keen   on   filming   in   public   unless   it's   a   branded   video,   but   she  will   if   it   goes   with   the   content   she's   posting.   

she   doesn't   like   to   cook,   but   when   she   does,   she   loves   to   make   traditional   korean   foods.   despite   growing   up   with   wealth,   if   there   was   one   thing   her   mother   made   sure   of,   it   was   that   she   cooked   meals   for   her   family.   her   favorite   meals   are   jajangmyeon,   ramyeon,   and   bulgogi.   if   asked,   hanui   would   cook   for   people   when   coming   by   her   home   or   if   invited   to   a   potluck   /   friendsgiving.

personality   wise—   she's   known   as   someone   who's   able   to   get   what   she   wants   with   the   point   of   a   finger   or   bat   of   a   lash.   she   has   a   strong   interest   in   people   as   a  whole   regardless   of   their   identifying   gender.   she's   a   jealous   person,   and   doesn't   like   when   someone   she's   interested   in   has   another   person   in   their   ear.   

she's   more   than   likely   the   one   who   burns   bridges   with   former   friends,   but   somehow   always   has   a   reason   for   doing   so.   she   dislikes   being   told   what   to   do   and   hasn't   shaken   the   desire   for   confrontation.   hanui   unfortunately   has   twitter   fingers,   but   she   at   least   provides   receipts   to   back   up   whatever   she   says.   she's   very   shady,   like   real   housewives   kind   of   shady,   but   she   will   do   it   straight   to   someone's   face.   hanui   is   known   for   her   resting   bitch   face,   which   is   not   a   façade   to   who   she   really   is.

PLOT DROP 22: COASTING TOWARD SUCCESS

After some considerations, the Prosperity completed its plans for travel.

After a successful series of Japanese theme parks and some conversations with the Astrea twins, Daphne negotiated for a day off for the group to go to Tokyo Disneyland for Robin and Ryder's birthday party.

The party will not be funded by Kjeuk, although he is enthusiastic to gift anyone excited to have a birthday at a theme park some gifts. Kjeuk provides each of the twins a carefully curated set of pins tailored to his impression of their interests and a Mickey or Minnie earband that he believes suit their personality (both are glittery, but Robin's is a little more understated).

The Robin and Ryder birthday party event will take place in Discord during lunchtime on July 1st at Tokyo Disneyland. The event will take place in an outdoor seating area where Daphne and Greg got in early to reserve enough tables. Attendees will have had the chance to ride some rides, and will have the chance to ride more later! It's a day off for fun and to celebrate the twins!

--

Back to business, the next location that the group will be traveling to will be South Korea on July 3rd. In South Korea...

Samira and Ryder have been assigned to be the point people on South Korean park merchandise research (although Ali as the lead as supported by his staff, Ian and Theo, are responsible for merchandise research.

HJ, Stella and Daniel have been assigned to visit (with Kjeuk) Ocean World and Caribbean Bay.

Beck and Robin and Skylar are responsible for visiting (with Kjeuk) Everland and Lotte World. Yes, this is a three person group because these are the most popular theme parks.

Gwen and Ian have been assigned to Eco Land Theme park and Maze Land. Kjeuk will not be attending.

Samira and Ryder have been assigned to Psyche World and E-World. Kjeuk will not be attending.

Theo, Daphne, and Ali will visit (with Kjuek) Wolmi Theme Park and Gyeongju World Amusement Park

Muffy and Al have been assigned to Aiins World and O-World Daejeon Theme Park. Kjeuk will not be attending. (Muffy is looking forward to it)

Marshall and Laurie (with Kjeuk) have been assigned to Legoland Korea and Seoul Land.

Greg and Kyle have been assigned to Daegu E-World and Seoul Children’s Grand Park (Kjeuk will not be attending).

Essentially, the responsible parties will need to coordinate with the research team (here - Ryder, Samira, Ali, Ian, Theo) to make sure merchandise gets purchased according to Kjeuk's requests. They don't need to do it all in one day, and are very strongly encouraged to enjoy the theme park's attractions while in attendance so that they can (in Kjeuk's words) more authentically purchase merchandise. Kjeuk will be quizzing people because he wants the deets.

In creating threads for this South Korea destination, players are allowed to assume any kind of merchandise is requested by one of Kjeuk's club members.

Have fun! The research point people and thread pairings will be switched up at each destination, so look forward to that!

Players are allowed to start writing any threads taking place in South Korea's theme parks now or later!

TW’s na bio: uso excessivo de remédios/fármacos e relação familiar conturbada.

Biografia:

24 de março de 1990. O primogênito da família Yu veio ao mundo em uma tarde ensolarada de domingo.Concebido em solo australiano, Moonsik nasceu e viveu boa parte de sua vida em Sydney, lugar onde residiu até os dezesseis anos. Teve uma infância conturbada graças ao pai que era agressivo e severo com todos os membros da família, incluindo a própria esposa. Aprendeu a tocar alguns instrumentos de corda por incentivo de um professor aos nove anos de idade e encontrou ali uma de suas maiores paixões. O garoto Yu carregava suas “bad girls” para todo canto que ia, até em eventos familiares, o que gerava um grande desagrado em sua mãe. Afinal, levar uma guitarra para cerimônias de casamento rendia olhares tortos. Coisa que, para ele, nunca teve importância. Estava acostumado. Sempre foi uma criança com muitos “demais”. Agitada demais, falante demais, bagunceira demais. Incomodar fazia parte de sua essência juvenil.

E essa essência se estendeu até a tão odiada adolescência, exceto a parte da agitação. Agora suas “bad girls” não o acompanhavam mais. Elas deram espaço para as correntes, os delineados marcados e as diversas camisas de bandas de emo core que completavam o look “sou diferentão" do jovem Yu. Diferente. Ele genuinamente sentia-se diferente entre os demais. Não tinha amigos ou pessoas com quem passar o tempo no intervalo entre as aulas. Costumava comer sozinho, muitas vezes no banheiro masculino, trancado na última cabine. Ninguém conhecia os seus ídolos, desprezavam a sua comida “estranha” e o achavam narigudo demais. “Um fracassado e tanto”, pensava sobre si.

Após concluir o décimo sexto aniversário, Moon Sik entrou em um avião pela primeira vez. As quase dezessete horas de voo pareceram uma eternidade para o inquieto e impaciente Yu. A adaptação foi lenta, cheia de obstáculos culturais e com muitos puxões de orelha. Mas, aos poucos, Seul foi se tornando um lar. O interesse por arte, música e literatura cresceu ainda mais estando na capital coreana. Era provável encontrá-lo nos museus da cidade, nas livrarias do bairro onde morava e até mesmo nas batalhas de rap em Hongdae. Não era muito bom de rima, péssimo para falar a verdade, mas gostava do ambiente e de como a música fluía tão naturalmente.

Em 2008 o nosso poeta sem causa ingressou na Seoul National University. Sem sombra de dúvidas a etapa mais complexa do processo foi escolher um único curso. Moon tinha múltiplas aspirações — e amores —, então, ter que decidir entre literatura, música e artes plásticas, não foi uma tarefa fácil para o rapaz. No fim das contas, a primeira opção falou mais alto em seu coração, assim como a loira de sotaque francês que conheceu nos corredores da universidade. Illyana partiu de colega de curso para "o grande amor de sua vida" em questão de semanas. 

Alguns anos se passaram e mesmo com a exaustiva rotina acadêmica, Moon iniciou outro curso superior. Pedagogia! Uma paixão inesperada até mesmo para o australiano que descobriu o interesse na área durante o estágio obrigatório em uma creche local. Park Jihye, sua amada e controladora mãe, quase infartou com a notícia, mas o drama exagerado da mulher não o fez voltar atrás. Por outro lado, a atual noiva do professor em formação, Illyana, o apoiou completamente, e na semana seguinte da formatura ele estava lá, feliz e solto, conhecendo o campus da Yonsei University. 

A carreira acadêmica seguia como o planejado, mas o noivado, não. Algumas discussões surgiram, houveram opiniões contrárias que resultaram em brigas intensas; brigas que esgotaram o casal aos poucos. Mesmo com as divergências, eles tentaram manter o relacionamento, ultrapassaram todos os limites pessoais para fazer dar certo, mas não teve jeito. O fim chegou e a culpa o atormentou diariamente, assim como a autodepreciação cresceu no mesmo ritmo, fora os abusos de fármacos que quase tiraram a sua vida.

Longos e dolorosos três anos se passaram. Moon não aguentava mais a rotina caótica da capital, precisava de ar fresco e calmaria, por isso, em um surto durante a madrugada, juntou as coisas, enfiou no carro e seguiu para Ulleung-un. Lá conheceu Kyunggu, o amor de sua vida, o homem atentado e impaciente que tem as rédeas de seu coração. Criou laços inquebráveis, realizou o grande sonho da paternidade e aos poucos construiu uma vida tranquila. A estadia em Acropolis era, de início, temporária, não pretendiam ficar por muito tempo, afinal, tinham uma vida no interior, mas o apego do namorado ao melhor amigo que decidiu morar no condomínio e a proximidade que teriam da família, os fizeram desfazer as malas de uma vez.

Saiba quais são os lugares mais visitados do país e o que cada um deles tem de especial Você já tem em mente quais pontos turísticos da Coreia do Sul vai visitar? Fez um curso ao menos o básico da língua coreana, para se comunicar com facilidade no país?  Um bom planejamento, com certeza, faz total diferença na viagem, pois quanto mais preparado você estiver, menor a chance de se deparar com dissabores e perder tempo. O palácio Gyeongbokgung - Seul / Foto: Divulgação Separamos neste artigo 4 localidades maravilhosas que recebem muitas visitas no país e para completar incluímos também algumas dicas de planejamento, para que realize uma viagem elevadamente satisfatória. 4 Pontos turísticos da Coreia do Sul que você vai amar conhecer 1 – Parque Lotte World - Seul Esse parque temático da Coreia é considerado um dos maiores do mundo e também um dos mais visitados do planeta (recebe em média 8 milhões de visitantes por ano). Algumas pessoas chegaram a apelidar o lugar de Disney Coreana, por conta de toda a diversão e alegria que ele proporciona. Além dos brinquedos, por lá também tem shoppings, ilha artificial, hotéis, museus, pista de patinação, apresentações e muito mais. Mais alternativas de parques: PooPoo Land, Seoul Children 's Grand Park, Everland, Seoul Land, Gyeongju World, Petit France, E- World, Eco Land Theme Park, entre outros.  Ver essa foto no Instagram Uma publicação compartilhada por Alexandra (@sashamushel) 2 – O palácio Gyeongbokgung - Seoul Esse exuberante palacete, logo conquista os visitantes pelo seu visual. Embora o palácio tenha 600 anos e tenha sofrido com os ataques contra a Coreia, o local está em ótimo estado de conservação. Por lá você encontrará um enorme lago e verá nitidamente nele o reflexo do palacete. Outras opções de palácios: Jongmyo Shrine, Changdeokgung, Deoksugung, Gyeonghuigung, dentre outros.  Ver essa foto no Instagram Uma publicação compartilhada por Niki__66 (@niki__661) 3 – Bukchon Hanok Village - Seoul Esse belíssimo local, que se localiza em Seoul, possui 600 anos de existência e se mostra como uma ótima alternativa de passeio para indivíduos que apreciam a arquitetura.  Neste vilarejo você verá várias casas charmosas que serviam de moradia para os funcionários da nobreza e de alto nível do governo. Vale ressaltar que atualmente, além de possuir essas residências, o vilarejo também abriga lojas de chás, restaurantes, cafés e galerias de arte. Ver essa foto no Instagram Uma publicação compartilhada por ♡ connie ♡ (@itsconnieyeah) 4 – Templo Budista Sinheungsa – Sokcho Esse templo budista, construído no ano de 1648, se localiza no Parque Nacional de Seoraksan e é muito popular por lá. No templo tem várias imagens de Buda, como, por exemplo, o Buda da Grande Unificação, que é enorme e também oferendas dos visitantes.  Aproveite sua presença no templo Sinheungsa, para meditar e também curtir o contato com a natureza do local. A viagem começa no planejamento - É de grande importância que você leve em consideração o planejamento da viagem, pois qualquer vacilo, poderá transformar o seu sonho em pesadelo. Infelizmente, muitas pessoas já caíram no golpe da viagem, pagaram para ir para determinado local, por um valor baixo e quando chegou o tão esperado dia da viagem, descobriram que foram passadas para trás. A Coreia do Sul é um país distante do Brasil e mesmo a viagem feita de avião demora horas para chegar, mesmo em voos com poucas paradas. Sendo assim, se alguém te oferecer uma passagem super barata para ir para a Coreia e você não tiver conhecimento sobre a agência de viagem. Desconfie! - Faça um curso de coreano, para facilitar ao máximo a sua comunicação na Coreia. - Pesquise sobre a culinária local, e faça também uma lista de comidas que você pretende pedir, para agilizar na hora do atendimento. - Tire bastante fotos e divirta-se!
