Hourglass: Behind Story

Description

A story of a famous idol group, from their trainee days to the day they first stand on the stage and the day they sing their last song to the fans.

 

What does it really take for you to be on top?

 

“It takes us a long time to reach here and it takes merely a second for us to fall down…but we’ll get back up and climb up higher.” – Hourglass

 

“We’re not slaves but without SM, we are nothing. Without SM, there is no Hourglass.” –Sehee

 

“I still remember my first day in SM. I can’t believe that this is my last.” – Soomi

 

“Even when we’re fighting, we’ll become one when Endless cheers for us.” – Eunsung

 

“We will sing and stand on this stage, as long as there is one fan cheering for us.” – Mai

 

“Star…it’s nice when you look at it from afar, when you look at it up close…it really isn’t anything special.” -Yumi

 

“I can never put it in words how much we thank and love our fans. They are like the heart of Hourglass.” – Chaerin 

Foreword

 

April 2009

“Have you heard of the infamous 5-year jinx?” Sehee asked Yunho. The two were sitting on the rooftop, simply enjoying the cold night air and taking a break from the hectic schedules all day long.

“Yeah…but you should have faith with the members.” He said.

“It’s not them whom I don’t have faith with…I don’t have faith with myself.” Sehee admitted. Yunho is younger than her, but she has to admit that Yunho’s leadership is much better than her. Hell, maybe he’s the greatest leader ever.

“How many girls who have a life as messed up as you can handle with four other girls? You’re stronger than you thought,” Yunho said with a slight laugh, trying to cheer up the older girl. Sehee laughed but didn’t say anything else.

“What will you do if it happens?” she asked after a long silence.

“I don’t think it will ever happen.” He shrugged. Sehee turned to look at him. How can he be so sure?

“If it happens?” she asked. He didn’t say anything.

 

“If it happens, I’ll protect the ‘TVXQ’ name with my life.” He said. Sehee wanted to laugh, but she saw that he was not joking at all and it made her wonder, if it happens to her, will she do the same?

July 2009

“After a month in Hungary working my off, no one greeted me. Even Jiho oppa left me at the front door.” Sehee grumbled as she pushed two big luggages into the living room. The living room was empty.

“Why is it so empty?” she wondered and checked on the pictures of Hourglass on the wall, just to make sure she went into the correct unit. She frowned but made her way to her room. It was empty and she frowned.

“I’m not old enough to be that forgetful,” she said and unpacked her clothes. She opened the wardrobe and there were only a few clothes that belonged to her. She felt there was something not right and she rushed into the bathroom that they shared. There was only one toothbrush that belonged to her.

She fished out her phone only to throw it onto the bed since the battery was dead. She pulled out her laptop from the luggage and plugged in the charger. She entered the password of her laptop and clicked on the internet. She searched the first thing in her mind.

Hourglass

The result was a heart attack for her. She calmly clicked on it.

Hourglass is Breaking Up?

Her eyes became wider and wider as she read the article and once she finished reading, she had a hand over and ran to the bathroom to throw up.

Chapter 23: Oh... I knew it was going to happen but... that was so sad! I am literally tearing up right now reading this was so hard. Poor Yoochun and Yumi. T-T
That's really harsh and it makes you think about these idols and we all know they have to live like this and I just feel so bad for them. You really captured that pain too. I was so taken in by the words and I actually felt her pain, even though she is my character, it was so sad.

Oh no. This is the time when Donghae's dad... I will be crying even more then later.
Is Soomi going to end up with Jiyong now? That's confusing.
I thought Yumi and he were... you know after the whole Yoochun thing... IDK.
Awesome story. Really good. d(^-^)b

Chapter 22: Oh my Gosh!!
I love it. Is this it for Yumi and Yoochun? lol
I can just see it now, the fans are going to catch on and they will have to break up right? Oh poor Yumi!
I loved her acceptance speech! She proved to her mum she could do it!
I can't wait to see what you have planed for Hourglass.
It really is a fun group of girls to read.
Though I have to say I'm going to miss the silent support Yoochun seems to be showing Yumi. It doesn't seem so playboyish but the rest of TVXQ seems to support their breakup and agree with the rest of Hourglass... *pouts* Yumi is up against the world lol. They all care about her and her love life, instead of calling the guys from TVXQ oppa she should be calling them appa. lol or or oh I hope she starts calling Yunho 할아버지! Hahahahaha!!~!! That would be soooo funny! I can see it now (~.~)
