I just met this young woman after arriving at Hyung's house.
But who is this?
Wasn't Hyung dating an actress?
I weirdly stared at the pretty young woman, afterwards, I turned to Hyung and asked for some explanations with my face.
He completely ignored me and looked at his golden watch on his left wrist. Then, he said.
— Hwangbo-ah, it's already 8 o'clock, have you eaten yet?
— We made ramyeon, but we were waiting for you to start eating, also, we apparently did just enough, taking account of the little guy over there — she said pointing at me with her chin
— Anyway, how was practice today? I hope you didn't forget about it without me being here — he asked with his eyes showing from the top of his black glasses, which he weirdly used even inside.
They were having this conversation as all three of us moved from the garage where Hyung parked the car, to a really big room, with just a 3 person sofa on one side, and a mirror wall on the other side.
Suddenly, the young woman, now I know she was called Hwangbo, screamed out loudly.
— Girls!! Come here!! Sang Min is here!!
Sang Min then sat on the sofa, and signaled me to sit next to him. Hwangbo-ssi was still up while looking directly at Hyung.
I turned to see him and could notice a huge change in demeanor. it's like another person was next to me.
He lowered his chin, and deeply stared at the now three girls that were in front of us. I could now even hear my own heartbeats, and the pressure was starting to feel suffocating.
Just then, Hyung extended his open palm and said.
— What are you waiting for? Show me if you've trained enough — he gestured with his hands for them to start whatever they were doing.
He snapped his fingers, and music started sounding.
Was it jungle vibes? No, more of an Indian concept if I must say, that would explain the eastern europe clothes that the three young women were sporting. I mean, their hair and even makeup was clearly distinctive.
While I was busy analyzing their appearance, they started dancing, firstly slowly, but later in the song it was almost scary.
They were moving in perfect sync, for about three and a half minutes that the song lasted.
After they finished dancing, all three of them were heavily gasping, but their gazes never faltered. Specially the woman called Hwangbo, she was still defiantly gazing at Hyung.
I then turned at him, and noticed he was wondering about something, he then said.
— Do it again...
Really? Which part? Does he mean everything ?
That's when the song started playing from the beginning again, and the women, even though tired, started dancing once again.
A shocked expression appeared in my face, is this being an singer trainee? So they weren't Hyung's girls or anything strange.
I didn't know Hyung trained idols too, but judging from Hyung's car, do they live together? I guess it's a way of monitoring them.
Anyway, after that train of thought ended, before I could notice, it was the third time the girls were repeating the whole choreography again.
After they finished once again, I could see Hyung was still pondering about something. That's when I decided to interrupt.
— Sorry to meddle in this but Hyung, Can I say something?
He simply looked at me and nodded. I could notice his raised eyebrow wondering what I would say.
— I'm really sorry noona. I think I know what is bothering Hyung, you're just a bit taller that the other noona, but your arms are quite longer, so diminute differences can be easily noticed when you perform that choreography that is heavy reliant on Arms movements. — I told the oman on the right side, but then stopped for a second, trying to organize my thoughts before explaining myself — If I may say, why don't you try to make shorter movements? — I said to the woman who received us, while being really nervous. I was after all correcting an older person.
— And why should I — She was frowning and ready to scold me when Hyung interrupted.
— Do as he says Eun-ah — said Hyung with a firm tone, while maintaining his stoic face.
She grumbled, but still, the song restarted and all of them once again performed for the two of us.
This time, I could notice Hyung was really into the choreo, but by the end, he started to weirdly stare at me. After the girls finished, he asked.
— How did you notice that detail? — he asked, finally taking the sunglasses off.
I simply shrugged my shoulders, I just noticed it, there wasn't a special way, so there was no answer to this question.
He then smiled at me and turned to the girls to say.
— It's perfect, you've mastered that song, tomorrow we'll start with the next one, for now let's just eat — he said before clapping his hands as a form of closure.
Hwangbo-ssi brought a low table and put it in the center on the room, so we all sat on the floor and started eating the ramyeon, with some side dishes of course.
I was only eating rice and laver, because they probably didn't expect me and didn't make enough Ramyeon, but Hwangbo-ssi kept telling me to eat a lot of it. I was a bit shy, so I said.
— In okay Hwangbo-ssi, I'm not even that hungry.
She clicked her tongue and said.
— You can't lie to me, even though you're good spotting our mistakes, I'm equally as good spotting an empty stomach, now eat before I shovel the food down your mouth. Okay? — she said, passive-aggresively — Also, call me noona.
She was staring at me menacingly, so I started eating some ramyeon to placate the beast, *cough* *cough*, be thankful to noona.
I could notice how the woman called Lee Eun was heavily staring at me, while I was getting nervous, Hwangbo-noona whispered at my ear.
— Don't worry about her, she'll get over it, always does. Just keep eating.
I nodded back at her and kept quietly eating. She kept introducing the women to me.
— You already met Lee Eun, she's just a bit angry at you, the other girl is Eani-unnie, our acting leader and then it's me. Sang Min personally brought us here to debut. What about you, what is your relation with him? — She finally asked.
— I'm just an acquaintance, he knows my adoptive father, and my adoptive father asked for a favor from him. Now I'm here, and will be for some time.
While we were talking, Hyung said.
— I'll do some things in the studio, you'll sleep in my room Chris, there are already two beds there. I'll probably go to bed really late so try to sleep comfortably.
I nodded, stood up, after helping cleaning the mess we did, and went to the room Hyung said.
The rooms were actually pretty simple, Hyung's room didn't have an internal bathroom, but there was a bathroom just next to his room. On the other hand, the girls room was a little bit bigger, had an internal bathroom, and was just in front of the big room we were just in, that acted as living room, kitchen, dining room and practice room for the girls. Both rooms had a window to the outside, but the girls room could only see the back of the house.
I entered the room, and just as I was taking off my shirt, because it was more comfortable, the room's door opened abruptly.
— Chris-ah, don't forget to change into these pajamas, Sang Min gave them to you — Hwangbo noona entered and noticed my back facing her.
She definitely saw it....
She stopped, and hurtfully asked.
— How did you get those marks in your back?
