A: Broken Memories ( which is in the draft lol)

 

Q: Which chaptered story is the most popular?

A: It Has To Be You /winks.

 

Q: Which chaptered story do you consider to be your underdog (aka better than the most popular one)?

A: Better than most popular one? But I only have It Has To Be You only atm though.

 

Q: Which chaptered story has the longest word count?

A: It Has To Be You ( again lol). Sometimes, I would take four to five pages to write a chapter – I don’t really remember which chapter was it but it have merely 11000++ words count. Proud me heh.

A: Um. Can I answer this with It Has To Be You again? xD

 

Q: Which oneshot is the most popular?

A: Since I only have only one shot which is Come Back and I’m Sorry, I think this story is popular (for me). Heck, I don’t even expect this one shot to receive a lot of subs (Sunggyu- Jessica pairing is a really really really rare pairing) but it did. The story seriously exceeds my expectations.

 

Q: Which oneshot do you consider to be your underdog (aka better than the most popular one)?

A: Come Back and I’m Sorry ?

 

Q: Which oneshot is the least popular?

A: None.

 

Q: Which oneshot has the longest word count?

A: Ahem.

 

Q: Which oneshot has the shortest wordcount?

A: Ahem.

 

Q: Which are your top 3 favorite stories?

A: Let’s not talk about the draft stories okay?

So I only got two stories available lol.

1.  Should I say I love Come Back and I’m Sorry more than It Has To Be You?  Writing one shot seriously fun. I took one whole month to publish this (lame) one-shot. Sunggyu as young CEO who had stupid and high ego af was a very challenging character to write and I did some small research on medical to write Jessica’s job as a hospital resident. These two characters were definitely opposite. Jessica was um, let me say her way is more calm but idgaf character while Sunggyu is more to ‘I-get-what-I-want-and-I-want-to-marry-her type. I wish I would write more for this story but atm I was occupied with It Has To Be You, so I think writing a one-shot for my GyuSica pairing will settled for this moment. Still, I love this story the most because those two are simply my ultimate bias and maybe because this is my first one shot ever.

2. It Has To Be You. Compare to Come Back and I’m Sorry, It Has To Be You is a classmate!au and the settings is in their teens (and will be in their adult in the upcoming chapters) . Writing Myungsoo’s character is great (at first lol) because he’s hiding his feeling and act like nothing happen in front of his 4 years crush but secretly he noticed everything about her – her favourite clolors, her favourite sandwiches and her habit – he knew it all. Sooyeon was a typical girl lol (which is not easy to write compared to Myungsoo) because Sooyeon did not have a trait on her – she’s just Myungsoo’s classmate who’s average in academic, not a queenka and not a nerd. She’s just a normal one *shrug*. I enjoyed writing this story because I received so much loves kyaaaa ( the comments that I got was pretty hilarious tbh). This story already in its 30th chapter and I’m planning to have only 40 chapters so which means I need to finish the story soon but I got too much things to tell my readers (so how? *sobs*)

 

 

Q: Which are your 3 stories you dislike?

A: None /grins.

 

Q: Which character was the most fun to write and why?

A:Sunggyu from Come Back and I’m Sorry. He was so so so desperate to marry Jessica, to earn her forgiveness, to get her attention back and to have her love. He was confident af when he want to marry her but almost retreat two day before his wedding day lol. When they married, he was awkward lol thus he whined at his best friends – why she’s ignore me, I’m her husband! He was egoistic too.

 

Q: Which character was really hard to write and why?

A: Honestly, I think Sooyeon was hard to write. I told my reader that Sooyeon knew how to read expression but I rarely put that trait up when it comes to Sooyeon. I’m trying to improve that one atm.

 

Q: Which character made you cry and why?

A: None of them have yet.  

 

Q: Which character did you identify with and why?

A: Um, since both of them were marriage stories – my characters and I don’t really have same characters. I don’t know how to read expression ( oh really?) and I certainly not a very calm person. Wait, I think I’m egoistic lol. Oh, well.

 

Q: Which character did you hate to write and why?

A: I hate to say this but I hate Myungsoo a lot. Myungsoo was bipolar (if you’re my reader, you would have known). He loves Sooyeon all of his heart but he need to take care of Naeun’s heart. I don’t want to write Myungsoo as a coward but it turned out something like that. He doesn’t want to confess which lead to confusion to everybody (including myself lol). He will only confess but at that time, Sooyeon was no longer have confidence in him. She believed that their marriage was only on paper and will be forever stay in that way except *cough* divorce. I wish I could get a chance where Myungsoo can get himself straight and confess. But dear my ITHBY readers --  if I wrote that, there will be no fun, isn’t? /smirks.

 

Q: Which character do you think is most like a real person (layers of character) and why?

A: Sooyeon? Wait no, Naeun. Right now (IHTBY chapter 30), Naeun is the most like real person. She’s a caring cousin and innocent which is a very real person for me. She’s clingy to Myungsoo because they haven’t met so long and try to make new friends since she just moved in.

 

Q: Which character are you most proud of and why?

A: Myungsoo of course. My readers really want Sooyeon to leave him and make him broken. I’m proud because I’m succeed in writing his character.

 

About recommendations

Q: Which story of yours would you recommend to read? And what is it about?

I want to recommend both of them – It Has To Be You featuring Infinite’s L and OC and also Come Back And I’m Sorry featuring Infinite’s Sunggyu and Jessica Jung. Even though both of them were marriage based stories, I assured you that both of them were completely different. It Has To Be You is a story where Myungsoo was married to Sooyeon (his 4 years crush) because of his grandma when both of them were nineteen and high school seniors. The story tell you about Sooyeon’s perpectives on how she looked at Myungsoo – from a kingka that she don’t really have interest on to a husband who took care of her daily. But Sooyeon didn’t have a clue that Myungsoo likes her lol. And of course, their marriage is a secret from their classmates and school.

Come Back and I’m Sorry is a story where Sunggyu once ditched Jessica for somebody else but only realised his love when Jessica was gone. He was craving for her love and when he knew that Jessica’s back, he planned a marriage for them. That’s the only way to ask for her forgiveness and build back a better relationship. Since it was only a one shot, I only wrote the highlight parts which I hope would make sense and follow the plot smoothly.

Ohh my god authornim....After reading your idea for IHTBY I seriously feel like crying... I was waiting for you to update the story .. You updated it finally and i am thankful for that but your future plan for IHTBY made me speechless... One side i want Sooyeon to leave Myungsoo but on the other side i want them to be together and Myungsoo to clear his mind and confess her... Authornim plzzz dont let them divorce or even think of it... plz....
