"You have been asked to be the lead in a film."

I almost fell off the bench, and tumbled down the hill.

"What?!" I screamed, jumping off the bench. "A FILM?!"

Was this the big break I needed? After my massive debut film eight years ago, I'd wrecked every single acting job I'd gotten. My first job had been too much pressure for me - I was only eleven at the time, though. I was completely and utterly certain I could beat the problem I had all those years ago.

"There's a catch."

I paused. I knew it was too good to be true. I sat back down onto the bench. I knew the catch would be something like - it's a geeky science documentary with a hundred words you wouldn't understand, or it's not a real film but a gay o, or you'll be the lead in spirit but you'll really only have two lines, etc. I've heard them all.

"You have to play a guy."

I closed my eyes.

"No."

"Look, darling, hear me out. You remember your massive debut, yes? The film where you played that little boy who taught his step-dad how to love? The one that won you a BAFTA? Well, the director for this film - the one who directed that amazing movie, Oscar-winning movie, The Full Moon - is actually a massive fan of yours. He called me up, and asked for you, and was actually shocked that you were a girl. He asked for me to send a couple pictures of you, the way you are now, and he thinks you'll be perfect."

"No, Kris. I can't keep playing boy parts. That's why I gave up acting all those years ago, and made myself a new stage name. I don't want to be forever remembered as the 'cute little boy in How to Make a Family' forever. I need to move on."

"But this would open up a whole world of parts for you. I remember you're old manager telling me about how many offers you got after you played that part - hundreds and hundreds."

"They were all boy parts. There wasn't a single girl character."

Kris sighed.

"Well, if you do this, a girl's part will eventually come. Just keep waiting."

I ran my fingers through my hair.

"Kris...I-"

"You'll be able to show Jongin."

I was paying attention now.

"Didn't he leave you for that chick, Yoon Sohee, because you weren't famous enough? Well, if you got a major job and because the idol you once were, you'll be able to show him."

He was right.

"When do I start?"

"Well, darling, it's actually not that simple," he said, relieved that I'd give in. "There's another catch."

I was silent. Another catch?! Was he kidding me?! Like I hadn't sacrificed enough with the whole 'boy' thing, and now he was expecting me to compromise even further?

"The director really likes authenticity, okay? He wants everyone's role to be perfect. And you have to play the part of a socially awkward high school guy who takes part in saving the universe from itself. Anyway, he said to me that he doesn't think that you have enough 'practice' so he's paid for a month in Seoul Performing Arts School." I could practically hear the speech marks around the word practice.

"Plus, I think Seoul Performing Arts School is the best school in all of Korea, so all the hot new celebrities will be there...think about it, Yoona. That means Oh Sehun, Xi Luhan, Byun Baekhyun, and all the rest."

"But Seoul Performing Arts School is for high school guys only. I'm a girl."

He laughed awkwardly.

"Honey, that's kind of the point."

Welcome, welcome! This is my first fanfiction I've ever written and I hope this story works out well. And yes, I am an exoyoong shipper, but in all honesty, my first OTP is exoyul because Yuri is my number one bias but I realized that not many people ship exoyul so meh, might as well just write some exoyoong fanfic. This will mainly contain the YoonHun couple, (because Sehun is my bias and I love him to death, plus the amount of moments they shared were quite real) LuYoon (overrated deer couple, they really look good together) and BaekYoon (just because Baekhyun and Taeyeon are too mainstream LMAO). YoonKai will be here as well, but not as often as the three pairs I've mentioned. This is somewhat genderbender, romance, schoollife, drama, and all that. Make sure you read the copyright statement before plagarizing my story. Anyway, please comment! Tell me what you think so far, I won't update unless you notify me that you really are reading this story. Upvote as well! I'll try to update often <3

This is a picture of how Yoona (or her fake boy name; Yoong) looks like as a boy, so handsome!
