"Just because we don't go to class doesn't mean we don't have to do the work, you know?" You groan.

Your best friend, Janice grasps your hand as you both push through the crowded streets.


"If things go as planned, then I won't have to worry about the work, you know?"

Janice nervously chuckles as you duck into a bakery, finding temporary solitude for your aching bodies.


"Why am I here then? I still have to do it."
Staring at the desserts, you sighed.



Five hours away from university, in New York City on a Wednesday.

With your best friend who dragged you along because she couldn't figure out how the train systems worked.


"Hey, who knows..
Maybe you'll find your soulmate in the city! How romantic~" Janice says, poking your side.

Your soulmate tattoo had recently appeared on your skin, and Janice couldn't help but tease you.


The blurred lines slowly formed into numbers and letters.

3_. _ 8 _ 7° _, 1 _ _. _ 18 _° E
9 - 1 _ - _ _ _ _
_:11_m

There was still a decent amount of information that needed developing before you can actually begin your search.


"Yah why are you still hung up about that? Even if I did meet them, it'd be pretty hard to be sure right then."

"Just ask them to take off their shirt." She winks as you both sit at a high table.

"JAN!" You punch her shoulder when she laughs.


Not too much was known about soulmates; the core donates of their birthplace, birthdate, and the time you'll realize who your soulmate is.
All would be printed somewhere on your body.

The location of the tattoo corresponded with your soulmate's too.

The minor inconvenience? Your tattoo ran along your rib cage, right under your chest.

How were you supposed to go about that?



"How are you feeling about today?" You move along from the topic.

"It'll be okay today, right?"
She looks down at the time on her phone and nervously twirls her thumbs.




The audition would be starting soon and the change in atmosphere was apparent in the conversation.


As members of the K-Pop dance crew at your school, performing public shows was nothing new.

What was new was when a JYPE recruiter followed you, and offered you an audition to become a trainee.

This, however, isn't that audition - that took place about 4 years ago, and you've been a JYP trainee ever since.



Your parents always supported your love for music, but still wanted you to get an education.

Which is why you're in the U.S.


You had stayed in Korea to finish high school, living with the other trainees and becoming familiar with the industry.

Your family agreed that if you successfully moved to the States to finish the first year of college, then you can do online school and reside in Korea to become an idol.
