Nam Ji Hyun left for Seoul the next day. She had been lucky enough to find a flight that departed around noon, though the last minute booking had taken up a good chunk of her funds. However, she hadn't wanted to wait longer. Ever since yesterday she still hadn't been able to contact Chang Wook-oppa and he had not returned her calls. Part of her wondered if he was ignoring her. The other part worried even more that something bad had happened to him

And so, despite her doubts, she went on ahead with her plan. During the flight she had sat wide-eyed, feeling slightly queasy as they got off the ground then marveling with wonder that they were actually up in the air. The sight of her homeland with its mountains and beaches receding in the distance had filled her with a sudden homesickness; but she clutched onto her locket, took a deep breath and concentrated on what lay ahead.

The only thing JiHyun had to go by was the address of Chang Wook-oppa's agency. It was in a neighborhood called Gangnam that on the map looked not too far from Gimpo airport. Her only plan for now was to start her search there which admittedly was not a very detailed plan. But she would have to figure out the rest when she got there.

The thought of wandering through the large city alone seems terrifiying. JiHyun takes a deep breath and reminds herself that everyday millions of people work and travel there just fine. She could too. At least she had a place to stay now -- or she hopes she does. The keys and address her Aunt gave her were safely tucked into her bag but her Aunt hadn't seen the house since she had left it over two decades ago. JiHyun said a small prayer to the Gods that luck would be on her side.

It seemed like they were barely in the air before the plane started its descent. JiHyun arrived at the airport to be greeted by a confusing mass of signboards, announcements and people hurrying along with their bags and luggage. Through sheer luck she found an information counter and the friendly service attendant there helped her look up bus routes to get to her destination. She thanked the lady profusely then promptly got lost trying to find the bus terminal.  

Two long bus rides and one wrong stop later she finally reached the general area of Seoul she wanted to be in but the day was already getting late.  It took her another hour or so of wandering the streets of Gangnam before sh
