*Em's e-mail to Mel*

Hey! How's Chile?! I hear it's warm down there. It's still kind of cold in Korea, but it's even colder back home. In Wisconsin, lol. I don't really know much about Chile, but I guess the internet connection isn't that great, because you're never on for webchatting. Nor have you responded to my other e-mails. MEL! THIS IS IMPORTANT! I can only imagine how your boyfriend feels.

Speaking of boyfriends... I don't even know how it happened, but... yeah. I'm dating Minho. from SHINee. I met Zelo at a variety show one time, and IT WAS AWESOME! He has such pudgey cheeks, and--

Anyway, so I met him. But (and don't tell anyone this) he has a girlfriend. Isn't that CRAZY?! Just a reminder; he's younger than even you. And debuted before you did... you debuted old, didn't you? Hahaha, just kidding. Okay, back on topic, so he actally is dating someone. She looks adorable, though. Good couple. (Although I'm doing a background check on her, just in case). 

Oh yeah, back to Minho! I feel bad for him, LOL. He's nice, and weird. You know, I'm just trying to get close to him to defeat the evil wizard, right? He's not the real Minho. I just need him to believe that I like him. So I can save the real Minho. The one in your pond. But don't tell him. I have a plan. But what if he has an evil plan for me, too? What if he's going to turn me into a frog, too? O.O

I'll be careful. So, yeah. That happened. It was a really big mess, and I'm still a bit confused about it. I just went to dinner with him. You know, as a payback for saving each others lives. And then it was a "you should go to a movie with me, to thank you for taking me to dinner." and "Thanks for the movie, so do you want to go sightseeing with me?" And it just kept happening like that. We were so grateful that we never stopped thanking each other. 

It sounds really weird, writing it like that. But, then again, I guess it kind of is. It doesn't make any sense to me, either, hahaha. I have picture proof! I can compete with you! MWAHAHAHAHAHA! (See the picture dump below). No more looking at "ZhouMel" selcas and going "you guys ." No, NO MORE! 

Mail me back! You're the one who's supposed to be the big Korean-American star, and you're the one missing everything! By the way, you're in trouble for giving evil Wizard Minho-doppelganger my phone number! No complaining! ASAP!

*Mel's e-mail to Emily*

I don't even know what to say. Seriously, when I read your e-mail, I just kind of stared at the screen with my mouth open for like, two minutes. I kind of wanted it to happen, but I didn't actually think... Wow.

Just goes to show that fate has different things in mind than our heads do. I learned that the hard way. Congrats on your "Viral Artist" award at the MAMAs, by the way! I heard I won a whole bunch of awards, and I wasn't even there to accept them. The company was that desperate to get rid of me. Jung Ah had to accept them for me, bring them back, and then I had to make a video acceptance for the award. HUGE pain. I really wish I could have been there with you guys!

On the matter of Zelo having a girlfriend: you know I don't even know the guy, but don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I have my own secrets to worry about. You know. I understand his issue. I hope you got some quality fangirling time, though, hahaha. With Zelo. Nothing better for a bad day than some good fangirling. Works every time.

Chile is nice. The mountains are really tall and pretty here, and the scenery is crazy. It is a lot warmer here than it is at home, but I spent some time near Cape Horn, where it was pretty cold. The stars were amazing, though. You wouldn't recognize the night sky, though. I don't even know how to describe it.

The internet connection around the cities isn't bad, especially in Santiago. Not South-Korea high speed Wi-Fi by any means, but still decent enough. Outside of the cities, though, there's, like, nothing. Sorry! I just came back from the far, far, far, far FAR south, so I didn't receive any e-mails until today.

What does that guy see in you? Hahahaha, JK. But you have to admit, it's KIND OF weird. Especially considering you call him the evil wizard, and believe that the real one is living in my pond. Do you think that frog's still alive? I mean, it's been three years, and I don't think frogs live that long...

Well, we'll just pretend that he's still alive. Especially if he's supposedly the "real" Minho. Try not to make the "wizard" Minho's life too difficult. Or else I'll be the one who has to deal with the aftermath. Although I don't actually see SHINee that much. It's a wonder we haven't heard anything about them collapsing onstage. They work themselves to DEATH. Well, except for maybe Jonghyun.

So that's everything from me! I promise, the next few days, everything's in Santiago. We're filming the last episode this week. But then I have to stay for the next month, until the show actually finishes airing. Promotions and stuff, you know. In a way, I'm kind of sad that it's going to be over soon. I didn't exactly volunteer for it, but the drama's really great. The ending is INTENSE! You HAVE to watch it, okay? But I'm really happy to go back. I want to go home.

-PS, I feel absolutely no regret for giving Minho your phone number.

*Eliz's e-mail to Mel*

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why are you not answering?! You have to help me! Jacklyn, Em, and Ali won't leave me alone about We Got Married! It's so... I can't even... I love them to death, but sometimes... sometimes...

You don't even know what I'm talking about, do you? Well, fine. Fine. Be that way. You'll get this message eventually. And you'll feel guilty. Because you left me all alone.

 *We Got Married episode clips posted on Mel's Facebook page by Ali*

Meeting at a park, Eliz wearing her nicest clothes, her hair tucked into an ornate braid at her neck, doing her best to look pretty. Who could her partner be? Just a little bit closer...

When she finally reached the place she'd been told she'd be meeting her "husband", both of them started laughing. "Kevin?!" she squeaked, between peals of laughter. Finally she sat down next to him on the park bench, and the two of them explained to the camera crew that they'd met each other before. That they were "kinda-sorta friends". And then Kevin remarked about the use of the words "kinda-sorta" and she reminded him that she was from Wisconsin, and not California, like the vast majority of Korean-American Kpop idols were. 

They were quickly reminded that they had to talk in Korean, for the sake of their audiences, unless it was unavoidable. The awkwardness was unbelievable. Nothing like being set up with a guy you'd met before, and you'd had a candy-throwing contest with. A fact which was now available on international television.

*Episode 2*

Eliz was with the girls of Rstory, headed to a performance scheduled in Busan. She'd scheduled to perform a flute piece, and was practicing it in the van, with the window open, trying to ignore the other girls, while they held up pictures of Kevin, and Emily photoshopped pictured of Eliz and Kevin together.

Eliz played louder, trying to drown them out. Finally she blew hard into the flute, screeching out a harsh note that drove the other girls' hands to their ears.

"Guys! CUT IT OUT!" she yelled, pulling the flute carefully apart and setting it back into the case. They laughed, and she rolled her eyes and looked out the window. She didn't have the best Korean, so it took her longer to read the signs than she had seconds before they were gone. What she eventually gathered was that they were close to Busan.

They arrived, and the girls stumbled out of the van, stretching in the spring sunshine. Em ran out, yelling, "PEE! I HAVE TO PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!"

Their manager ran after her, leaving Eiz with Ali and Jacklyn. She frowned, grabbing her bags out of the back of the van, including her flute case. She slung her backpack over her shoulders, and tapped Jacklyn on the arm, starting to ask her if she'd eaten Eliz's granola bar.

But she stopped and burst into nervous laughter when she saw her "husband" grabbing her bags out of the van, pretending they weren't heavy. "Oh my God, Kevin! Why are you-"

"Surprise! I came to see you. Do you want to go somewhere to eat?"

Eliz just grabbed some of her bags away from him and nodded, blushing, while Ali and Jacklyn stood only a few feet away, snickering.

*Episode 9*

"Okay, so that's the agreement. My members visit first, and then yours," Eliz summarized.

"And then they can meet each other, right?" 

"Well, they've already partially met..."

"But it's different this time."

"Y-yeah. Okay, I'll call them."

*Later in the episode*

"OMG this house is really nice!" Em called out, plopping onto the couch and lying down. "Can I buy it from you?"

"No, you can't buy it! This is mine and Kevin's house!"

"Ooooh... is this the bedroom?" Jacklyn asked, exploring.

"Hey! Don't go in there!"

"Why, is there something bad in there?" Jacklyn asked with wide eyes.

Eliz looked at Kevin helplessly, but he was just trying not to laugh. "No, there's nothing bad, but..."

"Come on, you guys, give her a break," Ali called, sitting down on the floor. The other two complied, Emily sitting up on the couch, and Jacklyn coming back to the living room to sit down.

"On a scale of one to five, I give it a four," Em stated.

"The house?" Kevin asked.

"No, the relationship. The house, of course. The relationship I rate a two. Maybe three."

Kevin looked shocked. "That bad?"

"That bad. But hey, what do I know? My boyfriend is a doppelganger wizard."

"What is she talking about?" Kevin asked Eliz.

Eliz rolled her eyes. "Just ignore her.

"Do you guys want something to eat?" Kevin asked the girls.

"YES!" They all answered.

"Here, I'll get something," he replied, but Eliz stopped him. "No, you stay here. I'll do it."

"It's just getting snacks..."

"I can doit, okay?"

"But..."

Em looked back and forth between the two of them. "Now that's what I'm talking about! I rank it a four!"

"You just like four, don't you?" Ali teased Em.

"I'm in a four mood today," she admitted.

Eliz shook her head, exhasperated, and went into the kitchen. Kevin followed her, and while they were gone, the conversation continued in hushed tones in the living room.

"What do you guys think?" Ali asked, "Intervention needed?"

"A lot."

"What should we do?" asked Jacklyn.

"Well... we DO have that FASE performance coming up... we could plan something for that..."

"Oh! I have a great idea!" Em cheered, and they huddled together while the video switched to Kevin and Eliz in the studio.

"How was it, having the girls from Rstory over?" was the question.

Eliz leaned back in her chair, absolutely exhausted. "They're so energetic. I felt like I aged ten years."

The same question was asked of Kevin.

He laughed. "They're really fun girls. They're a little strange, though. And they make a lot of jokes I don't really understand. But they seem really smart."

Back to the girls in the living room. "Okay, so do we think that'll work?"

"I think so. We'll have to ask the other members, though."

They quickly separated when Eliz and Kevin returned with some chopped fruit. "Yay! Food!"

 "So. Kevin. A lot of people are interested in this little relationship you have. I don't think people back home understand that this is just for a TV show. I think a lot of people think that you're really married..." Ali commented, and Jacklyn snickered.

"We are married!"

More laughter from the Rstory girls.

*Episode 10*

Outside the We Got Married house, a black van pulled up to the curb, full of visitors. But there appeared to be someone waiting for them just behind the corner.

The door of the van opened, and, of course, five of the members of UKiss stepped out, looking for the We Got Married house. Before they could get to the door, though, they were intercepted by several girls in hoodies.

It could be nobody but the girls of Rstory, waiting to talk to the guys. There were general greetings, and then they filled the guys in on the pln, of which the members of UKiss were all too happy to help with. It left the viewer all too curious about what the plan actually was.

*Mel's letter to her family*

Dear Mom, Dad, Pat, Jackie, and whatever other family members you decide to share this with,

How is everyone? I guess it's probably really wet there right now. Since it's spring in April in Wisconsin. I'm still getting used to how backwards everything is in South America. It's been a few months. Bet you never actually thought I'd use my Spanish, huh? Especially not when I went to Asia, hahaha. I don't really have a choice, now. Have you been able to watch it? I don't know.

This drama's almost over. I can go home soon. Well, not home home, but back to Korea. I have a lot of job offers when I get back. I'm doing well, believe it or not. I paid off my trainee debt, finally, after all of the work. Now I have my own apartment, in Gangnam. Not that you know what the significance of Gangnam is, besides that it's in the title of "Gangnam Style". Basically, it's the high-class neighborhood of Seoul. Which is where I live. Well, where I live when I go back to Korea. But I have it paid off, and now all I spend my money on is food, clothes, books and video games.

Which is why I'm sending the little check along with this letter. I'm giving the money I don't need to you guys. It's what idols do. If you're ever in a financial bind, from now on, just let me know. I have a very high-paying set of jobs. It's perfectly fine. I need to make sure Pat is doing well, even though I'm not there. It's better than spending my extra money on a wall of hats, like Ryeowook does.

Don't worry about me. Really. I'm fine. Chile is great, filming is fun, and there's no signs I'm going to start crashing and burning any time soon. The albums still sell well, I still have acting offers when I get back to Korea, not to mention the companies I advertise for. Speaking of which, I get the best cheese in the world. Kind of like Onew and chicken...

Another thing you don't understand. Telling you about my life is getting harder and harder. You just don't know all of the people I do anymore. And the other Wisconsin Girls are in Korea right now, so I can't even talk about them.

Before I finish this letter, there is one more thing I should probably mention to you, but I'm not exactly sure how I should start. Umm... so... Jackie knows this. But I never told you.

You remember when I came home for the fair, and my friends, the members of Super Junior were there, too? You met them all. You can already see where this is going, right? I don't want to say specifically, since announcing these relationships is dangerous. If it gets out to the public, we could have serious image damage. So we'll declare it when we're ready. But I wanted to let you know. Please don't criticize me for it. I really love him. As soon as I can see you in person, I'll talk to you about it. But right now, everything is chaotic.

I love you all, 
Mel.
