Rachel was at a counter cutting into some lettuce when she came to next, it was an older style kitchen. Which slightly confused Rachel at first and then made sense after she received the memories. She was in a strange alternate world that started around the 1980s time, although world history event followed through with some changes.

She was in Solul which would be Korea in the modern world. But, this country Is whole and very stable. Her name this time is Yong Nara, she is fourteen and was born to very traditional family the village. Her family was the second richest family in the village.

At first Rachel didn't have any problems but soon changes her mind. The Yong family is very traditional, meaning they catered to the males. She looked down at her malnourished body and then up to her two older sisters that where next to her. Cutting vegetables. The other two where also Malnourished but their eyes held some despair.

Yes, this family prioritized males over females to the point they where forces into such awful conditions.

"What's wrong, if you don't finish. You wont get Dinner" Yong Ru-Hi her eldest sister said somewhat worried and scared as she looked at Rachel. Her other older Sister Yong Min-Joo didn't say anything as she didn't care like usual.

"Do you ever think about leaving" Rachel asked deciding to cut the lettuce, Yong Ru-Hi and Yong Min-Joo furze.

"Yes, but where would we go. We are just women" Yong Ru-Hi said softly in a very said voice. While, Yong Min-Joo didn't say anything. Rachel stopped talking about that and just helped her sister make Dinner.

At Dinner Rachel met all five of her brothers, her father and then her mother. They were clearly not Malnourished and in fact had plump faces. Making Rachel irritable, they all sat at the table enjoying their meal while Rachel in her two-sister sat in the back. They weren't allowed to eat with the rest of the family as during mealtimes they had to be waiting on. They could only eat the leftovers after the rest of the family left the table.

This clear difference in treatment.

Looking down without thinking much and trying to keep herself calm, her body was starving and is going to collapse if she continues like this for the next few days. Without thinking she caught the object being thrown at her.

Suddenly the voice around her stopped and she was being stared at.

"Hey, did I say you could catch that" One of her brothers said, but already irritated she returned his remark with a frightening glare that caused him to be speechless.

"How dare you look at your brother that way!" her mother said standing up as she walked towards Rachel and gave a hard slap which left her with a bloody nose. This time Rachel said nothing not responding to the women or her slap.

Her mother faltered when she didn't get a response not even a glare. "Are you ignoring me you little wench"

"...." Rachel closed her eyes and still said nothing as she her mother berated her with foul words and another slap, she made no notion of anything. Till her mother gave up, in this situation she gritted her teeth. Yong Nana knew to little and the things she knew only came from the family of dirtbags. She doesn't know how good the law system is here.

In most case she is fourteen and a female she is in a very traditional Korea for god's sake. When Dinner ended her and her three sister cleaned up, did a few extra chores before going to bed the shack behind the house where her and her three sister's slept.

"Are you okay?" Yong Ru-Hi said she looked pale and was scared for her younger sister unlike Yong Min-Joo who turned away from the two and was trying to sleep.
