Hansung x foreign!reader Part 1
It was another beautiful and sunny day in Silla, the birds were singing, the sun was shining and the people were outside socializing. Everything was as it has always been, except that this time there was a foreigner roaming around the village as well. That foreigner, was you. Many people stared at you or at least took a glance in your way, but they did have their reasons. You had much lighter hair, colourful eyes and were almost as tall as all the men. You were quite insecure about yourself, but had sadly gotten used to all the stares and looks sent your way. You knew they were just curios so you let them stare. ‘Oh god, why did I agree to this?’ you ask yourself as you make your way towards the Hwarang house. Let me explain to you as to why you’re here : There had been news going around the ‘peasants’, that a travelling foreigner was close to Silla. The chief didn’t think that much of it, but when more rumours came through that the foreigner was fluent in an impressive amount of languages, well, that certainly got him interested. He wasn’t just impressed by your language skills, but also how much you’ve travelled. Travelling isn’t cheap nor is it quick, all the more reason to be impressed by you. You just wanted to see the beauty of Korea with your own eyes because many stories were told in your country of its beauty and nature. You learned the language on your way to Korea through many textbooks and even people. Sadly, you still couldn’t read or write that well, only talk. But knowing that many languages is already hard on its own, so the Chief was still extremely impressed. The news didn’t stay inside the Hwarang house for long, rumours and stories of the relatively young female foreigner started going around Silla and by the time you actually arrived there, basically everyone knew you. The Chief had sent you a letter the night before your arrival, asking if you would agree to teaching the soldiers about different cultures and possibly a simple languagefor some silver, and well…you agreed.
As you enter the courtyard of the hwarang house you weren’t surprised that even the workers already started chatting about you. Suddenly a girl wearing a pastel pink dress runs into you ‘’Omo, I’m so s-sorry’’ You look at her and shake your head ‘’It’s fine, are you okay?’’ She looks at you surprised ‘’I-I’m fine thank you’’ You just nod and start walking forwards, then you realise something ‘’WAIT!’’ You grab onto the girl’s arm ‘’Do you know where I can find the Chief’s office…?’’ She’s a bit startled but quickly answers ‘’My names Ah-Ro, and I can show you, just follow me’’ You quietly thank Ah-Ro and start following her. ‘’Soo, what’s your name?’’ She asks me ‘’ It’s Y/N’’ She pauses and looks at me ‘’That sounds so different, where are you from??’’ Ah-Ro asks me with excitement, I just smile and say ‘’I’m from (country name), I know it’s pretty far away’’ Ah-Ro just stands there with her mouth hanging open, then realisation dawns on her ‘’Omo! You’re the foreigner!’’She then looks at my hair and eyes ‘’Woooww, you’re so pretty!’’ She moves to touch my hair, and I let her ‘’Wahh, it’s so soft and lightweight! I’m so jealous…’‘ I just giggle and thank her ‘‘You’re so cute,even tho you’re tall!’‘ Ah-Ro compliments me, and again I just giggle but a small blush starts working its way onto my cheeks.
‘‘So here we are…’‘ Ah-Ro motions to the building infront of me. I look at the building and gulp, ‘‘Well, I guess my teaching career starts soon’‘ I try to joke…and thank god she giggled. ‘‘I hope we are friends now Ah-Ro, it would be nice to have a friend here’‘ I smile at her, and for some reason she’s really surprised. ‘‘Do all foreigners make friends that easily???’‘ I just blink and say ‘‘Yes…is making friends so quickly bad in Korea?’‘ now I’m just worried that I weirded her out or something ‘‘Nononononono, it’s just that we learn to trust people here’‘ ‘Aaahhhhhh that’s why’ ‘’Oh, that’s good to know, well I trust you Ah-Ro, you lead me to the right place and you don’t seem like a bad person’’ I smile at her and in return she smiles back.’’Alright, I’ll find out when I start, bye Ah-Ro!’’ I start moving up the staircase and turn back and wave at her. ‘’Bye Y/N, good luck!’’ she winks at me and quickly runs away.
‘‘Ahhhh, you must be the infamous foreigner!’‘ the Chief tells me as I look around the room. ‘‘Mhm…’‘ I nonchalantly reply back. The chief isn’t very pleased with how much attention I’m paying to his room, but he tries to remain calm and patient. ‘‘Now tell me, how much silver do you want?’‘ I think…and say ‘‘I just want food, a roof to stay under and somebody to teach me how to write and read in Korean, that’s what I want’‘ The Chief stops his movements and looks at me a little surprised ‘‘ How to write and read? But you already speak Korean, why need those?’‘ ‘‘Because to me a language isn’t learnt if I’m not grammatically correct, and without reading I couldn’t understand basically anything’‘ ‘‘But didn’t you learn Korean through textbooks?’‘ He asks me suspiciously ‘‘Yes, but I only looked at the pronounciation and traditions of Korea, sir’‘ The Chief’s head pops up at the unknown word ‘’What did you call me?’’ I giggle and simply shake my head ‘’I’ll tell you if somebody teaches me how to write it in Korean’’ He grunts, but agrees. ‘’The lesson starts in an hour, I’ll have one of the Hwarangs lead you to your room, I’ll send somebody to receive you aswell for the lesson’’ I bow and thank him. As I start moving towards the door he speaks up ‘’And also, there’s a princess currently at Hwarang house, so if you see her, please be respectful, I’m held responsive if you do anything reckless’’ At that I turn around and look at him ‘’Is the princess’s name Ah-Ro? Because if so I should leave, I wasn’t respectful enough’’ I nervously say ‘’Hahahahaha, no, that’s our physician, don’t mind her’’ ‘Thank the heavens’ I let out a sigh ‘’Where can I find the hwarang who will show me to my room?’’ The Chief thinks a little bit and scratches his head ‘’Go to the lunch room and ask for YeoWool’’ ‘’Okay, thank you’’ You start to leave the room. The Chief sighs and mutters ‘’…why did I pick the prettiest one to lead her? She can’t probably even focu-’’ ‘’Hehe…erm…where’s the lunch room?’’ you ask with your head sticking in through the doorway.
So this was just some backstory to you and hopefully there will be a new part coming soon :) Btw english or foreign words are in bold, also don’t be confused as to why I picked for the Chief to lead YeoWool to your room instead of Hansung, it’s all a part of a plan.
