Chapter 21
What Happens in Seoul~Third Person POV~
Within about ten minutes, they were already out of Seoul and were on the open road, where Natalie didn't notice the speed so much.
"So how long does it take to drive wherever it is that we're going?" she asked.
"I think it's about 40 minutes away," he replied.
"So with your driving it'll take what, half that time?"
"Pretty much," he grinned.
Natalie looked out the window at the rolling landscape that passed her. Korea was really beautiful, once you got out there to see it.
An FT Island song started playing on the radio, and Hongki started singing along out of habit, throwing in a few exaggerated facial expressions, and making Natalie burst out laughing. They passed the time of their little road trip by telling jokes and funny stories.
A little while later, Hongki pulled off onto a dirt road, then stopped the car not far along it.
"We're here," he smiled, letting Natalie out of the car.
He led her up to the top of a steep grassy hill, revealing a view that spanned over at least a few miles of the Korean landscape beneath them.
"Wow," Natalie said, looking out at the horizon where she saw the silhouette of mountains that were probably miles and miles away, "I never realized how high up we were."
"When you said you liked heights, I thought you'd probably like this place."
"Yeah, I love it. It's so peaceful."
"I come here a lot, whenever I need to just get away and relax."
"Does the idol life get too stressful for the mighty Hongki?" Natalie said sarcastically.
"Hey, I'm still kind of hurt that you had never even heard of FT Island," Hongki said.
"Oh please, like you don't have enough girls screaming over you already," Natalie replied. "Besides, I might not have been an FT Island fan before, but I am now."
"Oh? How come?"
Natalie laughed. "Well, their lead singer does have an amazing voice."
"Mhmm," Hongki nodded. "Their lead singer is a musical genius if you ask me."
"Cocky, much?" Natalie stated, hitting him on the shoulder.
"He's also pretty good looking, don't you think?"
Natalie just rolled her eyes, then plopped down onto the grass.
"Oh, I brought food and stuff," H
