�Good morning!� Il Woo greeted his grandma soon as he went to the kitchen and found her cooking the day�s menu. �Hmm...smells good!�

�Il Woo-ah, did you just bring those bottles of soju last night?�

�Soju?� And then he recalled what happened last night. �Ah, yes. A crazy drunk girl gave them to me.�

�A drunk girl?�

Il Woo nodded. �I took them here �cause I thought we can sell them. Halmoni, I just realize that we can sell soju, too. It will increase our earnings since a lot of people have been fond of drinking lately.�

�Really?�

�That�s not a bad idea, Halmoni. We don�t need to have a big capital for the soju. I know someone who can help us with the supply so we won�t have any problem.�

�Alright. We also have some customers here who kept on requesting for Soju. By the way, why are you dressed like that?�

Il Woo smiled. He�s dressed with a pair of formal suit. �I�m going to apply for a job.�

�Apply?�

�I�ll try my luck in the travel agency. Hope I can be hired.�

�Do they accept undergraduates?�

�I�m sure they will once they�ve proven that I can be an asset.� Then Il Woo stood up and hugged his grandma. �Halmoni, we can do this together, right? Fighting!�

Misty smiled and kissed him. �Goodluck!�

�Sir, I�m telling you, if you hire me I promise to do my best. I didn�t graduate in college because of financial reasons but if you look at my resume, you can trust that I can o a good job here.�

�I�m so sorry, Jung Il Woo sshi. But there no more vacant positions for you here. I will hire you if we�re needing an employee but our agency is already full. Nowadays, an undergrad won�t have any chance of getting a job anymore so if I were you, I�ll try to finish my studies.�

�I will do that if it�s still possible.�

�I�m really sorry.�

Il Woo sighed. �Thank you.� Il Woo stood up and is about to leave when�

�Yah, aren�t you getting what I�m trying to say?! Are you that brainless?!� A mad lady customer is yelling at one of the employees of the travel agency. Everybody there is staring at her. �Won�t still give me a plane ticket?!�

�I�m really sorry ma�am, but your passport has been blocked. We can�t give you a ticket.�

�How rubbish!� And the girl kicked a potted plant which made it fell down and break. And Il Woo realized that the girl looks so familiar with him.

�Wit a second isn�t she��

�Miss, please calm down.� The security guard approached Chae Won and when he held her arm, Chae Won quickly slapped him on the face. �Don�t touch me!� 

�Yes! She was that girl!� And Il Woo remembered her.

Chae Won faced the employee again. �You�ll give me a plane ticket or I�ll scratch your ugly face instead?� She sarcastically told her. 

�Okay! This is the perfect time to give an impression.� Il Woo smiled and faced Chae Won.

�Excuse me, miss.� Chae Won turned to him and she didn�t seem to recall who he is. �I don�t think you should insist more.�

�What?�

�Your passport has been blocked, perhaps by your parents, and that�s not the agency�s fault. They are just obeying the regulations here and you must not get angry to her.� And he pointed at the lady employee. �We know that you�re a customer but your problem isn�t ours anymore so please cal down and just accept that we can�t really help you.�

Chae Won gave him a sharp look and then looked at the employee angrily. And then she quietly walked out of the agency. Il Woo sighed. �Whew! I thought she�ll slap me, too.�

�Thanks for your help, Jung Il Woo-sshi.� The manager told him. Il Woo smiled.

�It�s just my thing, sir. I can really handle situations like that.�

�Thanks again. It�s just so disappointing that we really can�t hire you in.� Il Woo�s smile disappeared and he ended up going out of the agency while scratching his head.


When he went out of that office, a strong slap landed on his face. �Aw!!!!� And when he looked, he saw Chae Won standing there. �Yah!!!�

�You�re not even an employee here and you had the guts to make me embarrassed?! Such a bastard!� Then she turned around and walked away.

Il Woo touched his cheek who received that neck-breaking slap. �That girl is crazy...ouch!�

�How dare those guys to reject me!� So Eun angrily said. �I sing and dance even better than So Nyu Shi Dae but they still thought I was nothing. How humiliating!�

Il Woo laughed. He and So Eun are both cleaning the used tables in the eatery. They work there whenever they�re not busy. Il Woo�s grandma has one helper though. �Oppa, why are you laughing?�

�You�re so cute!� And he pinched So Eun�s cheek.

�Ouch! Oppa!�

Il Woo sat down and took a sigh. �I need to find a job as soon as possible. Halmoni doesn�t tell me but I know she needs to take medicine everyday. Her diabetes isn�t getting good.�

So Eun sat beside Il Woo. �Oppa, is it okay with you to be a bar waiter?�

�Bar waiter? Of course! Here�s nothing wrong with that job. Why? So Eun-ah, can you help me?�

�I�m not assuring if you�ll get hired but there�s no harm in trying. Here.� So Eun gave him a flyer. �I saw that last night and thought we�ll be needing that somehow. Try that one.�

Il Woo smiled and hugged So Eun. �Oh, So Eun-ah! You�re such an angel! Thanks!� Il Woo stood up and headed to his room.

So Eun took a deep breath and smiled. �No oppa. You�re my angel.� And she giggled.




TOP Bar. Il Woo wore simple t-shirt and jeans and tried his luck to that cool place. When he went inside, he saw that a lot of young people go to that bar and it�s a perfect place to chill and have fun.

�Uhm, excuse me.� Il Woo talked to one of the waiter there. �I�m just wondering if how I can talk to the manager.�

The waiter looked at him from head to foot. �Are you here to apply as a waiter?�

�Eh? Well, yes.�

�I�m sorry to tell you dude but there�s no way you�re gonna be hired here.�

�What? Why?�

�Unless you�re willing to be the manager�s lover.�

�What?�

�Our manager�s a gay, if you don�t know.�

�And every waiter here is his�� The waiter nodded.

�Still interested?� Il Woo laughed and shook his head.

�Uhm, never mind. Thanks.� He took a deep sigh and frowned. �Where are the other available jobs in the world?!� then he saw a free serving of apple punch and he got two glasses and drank them straight. Then he looked around the bar. �Hmm, but this place isn�t really bad at all.� And he decided to check out the whole place.

He somehow enjoyed that place and the free drinks and finger foods. He watched the playing live band for a while and lastly, he checked out the bar�s rooftop. �Oh, this is nice.� 

There are just a few couples on the rooftop and the wind there is just prefect for those who likes to chill out and relax. He went closer to the grill fence and look out the city�s night view. �I didn�t know it�s this nice here.� then he suddenly turned to his right when someone suddenly threw a bottle of wine in the air. And Il Woo got surprised to see the same scandalous girl again. 

�Her again.� He whispered to himself. And he suddenly stared at her when she began crying like a little girl. She looks hurt and depressed.

�What a foolish jerk!� Chae Won angrily said. �How can he leave a perfect girl like me?! he�s so useless!!!� And she continued crying while drinking another bottle of wine.

Il Woo shook his head. �She looks so wasted.� He whispered to himself. �Yah, miss!� Chae Won stopped drinking and turned to him. �Are you okay?�

�Do I look okay? What a stupid question!� And then she continued drinking.

�If your boyfriend left you, it could mean he doesn�t want you anymore. So why still cry for someone who�s not worth it anymore?� Chae Won stopped drinking and wiped . �You don�t have to make yourself look�stupid just because he left you. Find someone else and be happy again! That isn�t really too hard to do if you�re willing to-�

Il Woo suddenly stopped when Chae Won just cried, and this time, it�s louder and more childish. �Yah, why are you crying like that? You look so ugly when you do that kind of crying. Really miss�� but Chae Won cried louder and louder and Il Woo noticed that the people there are already looking at them. �Hey! Stop that! Everyone�s looking at us!�

�You should bring your girlfriend home!� A guy shouted.

�Yeah! She looks wasted!� Another guy shouted.

Il Woo moved closer to Chae Won. �Hey, stop crying! You�re embarrassing me!� Chae won suddenly stopped crying and just fell down because of too much alcohol she has taken. �Hey! Wake up! Hey!�


While in the cab, Il Woo looked inside Chae Won�s bag. There�s nothing inside her bag but a wallet and a chain with three keys attached to it. �This girl�s really strange.� He took out her wallet and opened it. He saw her id and read it. �Moon Chae Won. So this is your name huh.� He turned to Chae Won who is still sleeping soundly. He saw her address on the id.

�House # 7, Scot Village. Hm? She lives here??�

Scot Village is where house condos are located and rich bachelors and bachelorettes are the usual residents there. Il Woo paid the taxi by Chae Won�s money he found in her wallet. She has also lots of cash in her wallet which made Il Woo realized that she�s a rich girl. He carried Chae Won on his back and carried her out of the cab.

He saw a Mercedes in the parked in the garage. �Okay, that�s expensive.� Then he opened the house�s door with Chae Won�s key attached to the key chain. Il Woo the lights on soon as they got inside and he put Chae Won on the sofa. Then he looked around the whole house that is obviously too big for a single person.

But then he suddenly frowned. �Does a girl really lives here?� The house is so messy and the different stuff are just everywhere. He went to the kitchen and saw the untidy refrigerator full of different things. He got a glass of water and went back to the living room.

He stopped when he saw Chae Won already awake. She looked at him. �Who are you???�

Il Woo walked closer and gave Chae Won the glass of water. �Drink this� Chae Won drank the water as Il Woo sat beside her. �You sure don�t remember me?�

�Will I ask if I already do?�

�Oh, I get it.� Il Woo nodded. �They say alcoholic girls do really have short-term memory. Right?�

�Who are you? Why are you here in my house?�

�Of course, I brought you here. Can you possibly go home by yourself after drinking two bottles of wine?� Then Il Woo stood up. �Okay, I�m going now. You don�t need to pay me back. Helping you somehow made feel better after being rejected on a job. I�m leaving now!�


Chae Won lied on the sofa again when Il Woo has left. And she started crying again. �Jang Geun Suk, I really hate you!!!�



**********



So Eun is in the powder room and is doing some retouch in her make-up. She�s out again for another audition and this time, she�s in SM Entertainment to try her luck. 

She smiled cutely when she looked at her reflection on the mirror. �Kim So Eun, why are you so pretty?! The girls won�t really help but to get envious of you! Oh you�re so enviable! And Kim So Eun, this time, SM will get you! That�s for sure! Fighting!!!�

She went out of the bathroom and headed to the studio where the auditions are taking place. But when she got there, she saw the very long of auditionees. �What?! What time will I be able to get inside?! Where did these people come from?!� So Eun frowned and had no choice but to fall in line.

But after a few minutes, she felt like going to the CR again asked one of the people from the line to look after her place. �I will be back soon! I just need to use the bathroom.�

�Okay no problem!�

�Thanks!� but for some reasons, she can�t find the bathroom in that floor and there�s no one there whom she can ask for a direction. �Where are the people here?!�

She just decided to take the elevator and go the next floor and find a bathroom there. She took out her face powder and made some re-touch again. �Gorgeous Kim So Eun, do you still remember the lines? Hm, practice again!� And she started singing and dancing SNSD�s �Tell Me Your Wish�. But she suddenly stopped when the guy standing beside her looked at her. she felt embarrassed and just stopped. And the guy looked away.

�Wait a second!� She looked at the guy and got so shocked when she knew who it was. �Y-you�Jang Geun Suk???!!!�
