Chapter 8

[SungTae Hotel]

            MinKyung and her friends have just arrived at SungTae Hotel. After getting out of the car, MinKyung and her friends went inside and search for her parents. Inside, many people greeted MinKyung. MinKyung spotted her parents and brother talking to a middle-aged man and woman and a man that seems to be their son. MinKyung and her friends walked over to her family. MinKyung greeted, “Appa, Omma, Oppa.” MinKyung’s mother beamed, “Honey, you’re here! Meet the Oh’s! Oh SangMin-sshi, Oh MiRa-sshi, and their son, Oh WonBin.” MinKyung’s mother said to the Oh’s, “This is my oldest daughter, MinKyung. And these are her best friends.” MinKyung’s friends curtsy in reply. MinKyung curtsy and said with a smile, “Annyonghaseyo! Kwon MinKyung-imnida. Nice to meet you.” Oh MiRa beamed, “It is a pleasure to meet you! Omo, HyoRa-sshi, your daughter is beautiful! How old is she?” MinKyung’s mother said with a smile, “Kamsahamnida. She is turning 20.” MiRa said happily, “Omo, she is about my son’s age. He is 20.”

            MinKyung looked over to her son. He smirked at her. He then said, “Oh WonBin-imnida. It is a pleasure to finally meet you, MinKyung-sshi. I heard a lot about you. Of course, you truly are as beautiful as people say you are. I am amazed.” MinKyung replied with a curtsy and smirk, “Kamsahamnida, WonBin-sshi. I hope you don’t say this to every girl you meet.” WonBin smirked and leaned toward her ear and whispered, “Feisty one, I see. Interesting.” MinKyung smirked. EunMi whispered loud enough for her and the girls to hear, “Unnie, he is handsome.” MinKyung whispered back, “Yah! What are you trying to say?” The girls giggled.

            Just then the Lee’s and KiKwang’s friends arrived. MinKyung and her friends curtsy to the Lee’s. MinKyung said with a smile, “Annyonghaseyo ajusshi, ajumoni!” KiKwang’s parents smiled in reply. While the adults were talking, KiKwang’s older sisters ran up to you smiling. Lee JiHyeon, KiKwang’s oldest sister, beamed, “Omo, dongsaeng-ah! Long time no see! You look amazing!” Lee NaYoung, KiKwang’s 2nd oldest sister, added, “Ne dongsaeng-ah, you look stunning today!
