It was now or never. The setting was perfect and there was literally no excuse for her not to do it at this time. The IOI members were on stand by for the time being and almost all of them were asleep. She was surprisingly awake at this time, but for only one reason. They were at Kcon in France which meant they were sharing the same stage with Shinee and f(x). Nayoung was a big fan of Shinee especially Onew and was more than hoping to be able to meet him in person. Despite her inner fangirl needs, this wasn’t her true objective. She actually wanted to give Krystal Jung’s autograph for her member Jieqiong.

The two of them both dwelled from Pledis and with the average training time of about five years for both of them, they had spent a lot of time together. They had watched tons of videos together and their favorite idols. Nayoung had to sit through every f(x) reality show with Jieqiong and wake up early on the album release days. In turn, Jieqiong would have to listen to Nayoung talk about Onew’s leadership skills. Their relationship was good and they both died a bit inside when they learned they’d be performing at the same venue. The feeling was a dream come true.

She wanted them to go together, but figured it might be more meaningful if she brought back an autograph as a surprise gift. Their manager was keenly watching the members which gave her the perfect opportunity to slip away towards f(x)’s dressing room which she had passed a dozen times. She knew Krystal was chic and a bit intimidating to approach which had her slightly nervous although you’d never be able to tell by her expressionless demeanor. However, she too was seen as intimidating often which made her feel like things with Krystal would be somewhat comfortable. With every bit of courage she had, she knocked on the dressing room door.

“May I speak to Krystal sunbaenim?” She asks out loud, voice a bit shaky.

[ivsoojung-blog]

France was one of Soojung’s most favourite places, Paris especially. She did not mean to be cliché but in the recent year she found the culture of the place; food, movies, the sites, and everything to be more meaningful. Even more so after a few trips there for photoshoots or concerts or whatever it is her company had booked for her. France was always a place she would look forward to to visiting. So knowing that her group was invited to the K-Con there was a good feeling. This time, she’d be able to spend it with her members and also even the SHINee members, like the good old days.

In the midst of getting ready; her make up being done by the make up artist, her hair being blow dried and styled, and her stylist hanging up her outfit for the day, she heard one of the assistants call her. Apparently, someone was at the door for her. An idol. Truth be told, Soojung had not really kept up with the new debuts and the girl at the door was apparently from one of the new girl groups, IOI, as the assistant had whispered to her. She tells the girl to let Nayoung in. Though it may seem like Soojung was acting like somewhat of a ‘diva’ but she really was caught up in all the preparations. Looking over to the door, she spots the girl. Thinking to herself that she may have seen her face before, but she was not sure so she muttered a simple greeting. “Hello. You were looking for me?”

삼. 육. 칠.

prompt source: this 

삼. ARE YOU WHERE YOU WANT TO BE IN LIFE RIGHT NOW? 

Yes… I think that am. ( ‘ upon the realisation, she smiles fondly at the thought of how all her hard work has paid off until this point ) I have a movie coming up and I’m currently shooting a drama - both overseas, f(x) had our first ever solo concert, and even things in my personal life are going great. It’s quite the nice feeling and I’m grateful for it. I know many people aren’t as lucky.

육. HOW LONG WERE YOU A TRAINEE? RECOUNT A VIVID MEMORY FROM YOUR TRAINEE YEARS

Ah… I’ve trained with SM Entertainment since my Middle School years? ( ‘ she scratches her head as she tries recollecting her thoughts and memories ) I think the memory that comes to mind is during the earlier days where it was mostly Luna unnie, Sulli, and I. Back then we had a strict diet but we three really love eating… so we often sneaked in snacks to the dorm and there are times where we even got younger trainees to buy food for us. (’ she laughs, shaking her head ) This is probably my fondest memory, honestly.

칠. DO YOU HAVE A DATING BAN IN YOUR CONTRACT? WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT DATING BANS?

Well I’m not really allowed to disclose such information–there’s another clause on that in my contract with SM… I’m not really allowed to talk about anything, really, since we signed another agreement. (’ she purses her lips together ) But yeah, I’m dating someone right now. Openly. So maybe that’s an answer in itself?

Mina smiles as Krystal approaches, her head nodding a couple of times in acknowledgment. She actually has no idea where to bring the younger idol, but she thinks maybe a nearby coffee place would do well enough. There’s one that she usually goes to with members, Hyejeong usually, whenever she’d drag them along for a walk. “You like coffee, right?” She asks as she pushes the door open with her hip; she was still carrying all of her purchases after all. Her mind is working overtime, for some reason scared to have a quiet second pass between her and Krystal, lest the latter find her boring or not worth the time. Krystal gives off that kind of air, Mina thinks. Like she can be very easily done with something if it doesn’t interest her. “Do you– are you– ah. Do you usually buy things here?” It’s such a stupid question, really, but she couldn’t think of anything else.

[ivsoojung-blog]

“Yes, yes I do.” she replies with a nod. “It wakes me up like it should.” smiling at the other. “Do you like coffee too or are you more of a tea person..?” she tries making conversation herself - it’d be too uncomfortable for the both of them if they both just stayed silent. At first, she was rather confused by her question, so she looks to the older female. “Uh... yes...? I do I guess since it’s pretty near by and all. It’s quite... convenient.” she only realised her unintentional pun after she had said it. Maybe Mina might laugh and it could get rid of the awkward air between them. Small talk was not really Soojung’s forte.

ivyoongi:

Yoongi sends the other an equally tired smile.·“Ah, not really, but I helped a lot. There were only a few new tracks. I hope you’ll enjoy them nonetheless.” Even though his friend was always busy, Yoongi knows she makes time to check out Bangtan’s new releases and show her support in the little way she can.

He snickers, waving his hand dismissively.·“I didn’t mean that. I understand you have your busy schedules and I have mine. I just missed hanging out with you.” He tells her sincerely with a small smile.·

Yoongi’s not exactly a gossiper, but since the news about his friend and her labelmate being in a relationship broke out, he couldn’t help but be curious. He opted not to text her about it on the day it blew up, thinking she probably already had everyone hopping on her back about it. Yoongi’s a considerate friend after all. But now they’re hanging out in a place Yoongi can safely assume is secluded enough, and he doesn’t think he can pass up the chance of hearing the details straight from his friend.·“So…you and…” He playfully glances around as if anyone could listen in on their conversation before leaning in and whispering.·“You and Kai huh?”

“Ah, ah, I bet I will!” she nods confidently, knowing her friend and his group, she was sure that they would put out great music.·“You know me very well after all...” she adds with a lighthearted laugh.

Soojung was only joking to lift the air between them somehow but it still seemed like her friend was still a little stiff around her.·‘Maybe it’s because we haven’t seen each other in a while...’ she thought but maybe it was her lack of reaching out to her friend. She sighs and dismisses the thought. Focusing now on the present she gives him a warm smile.·

Just as she did, Yoongi brought it up. The news. ‘It was bound to be brought up sooner or later’ as she had always thought so her take on this is always·‘why not just get it over with?’ She laughs again, one with a more demure smile to it.·“Yeah. You heard, huh? Guess it can’t be helped...” her shoulders roll into a small shrug.·“I’m sorry you didn’t hear it from me but I kinda already assumed my friends, you, and the others already knew what was going on so, yeah.” she tries explaining with somewhat of an apologetic look to her face. Soojung felt a little bad for some reason. Maybe she should’ve told her friends about it before it broke out but it was too late now anyway.

Seunghyun just nods at first, his eyes kept on the road as he drives along the streets of Seoul. He snorts at her answer though–it’s all so standard, quite typical of Soojung, and the reason why hes starting as early as now in his attempt to get the actual scoop. “I guess you can say the same about me,” he answers with a shrug, pretending to play along for now. “Summer tour’s done, so the fall one’s starting soon,” he points out with a chuckle. That’s all they do these days pretty much; fly back forth between Korea and Japan to promote and do concerts. “We want to have another comeback soon, but hyung’s solo is coming first,” he adds.

He slows the car to a stop by a corner when the light turns red. He chooses this opportunity to turn and look at Soojung, laughter naturally escaping him. “Oi, now the formalities are over–what has /really/ been going on?” It’s not like the entertainment industry is big, and they have a few friendship circles that overlap–that is to say, the other members know some people within SM Entertainment, and there have been murmurs about what Jung Soojung has been up to. Not that any of them have been confirmed–which is what Seunghyun is trying to do. “Come on,” he insists, poking her arm right before he starts the car again. He keeps his eye on the lookout for drive-through that’s still open; he’s starving anyway, and hopefully food will loosen Soojung’s lips some.

[ivsoojung-blog]

“Whose solo? Hongki? Or is it Jonghun..? I heard from somewhere that he wanted to put out a solo album too. But like a guitar one? Sounds so broody honestly...” she says with a shake of her head though the idea of it sounds like a good one. Soojung had always appreciated FT Island’s music - not because of her close affinity with one of their guitarists and despite that their music wasn’t her go-to genres, but she had always admired them. Maybe it was because of how the reports she’s heard about the group and their company. She could relate to that. Maybe she just admired them as a group for who they were and all their hard work. “But ah... a summer tour sounds so fun. Tours in general. That’d be so nice to travel like that and meet all those fans from around the world...” she trails off, a longing sigh elicits from her.

A little startled, she looks to the male. ‘Wow he just jumped right in there’ she thought but that’s just how he is. She laughs a lighthearted laugh. Amused by his evident interest which she knew masked his worry for her. “Well... this would be so much easier to say through text!” she exclaims, her palms covering her face in embarrassment but knowing her big bro’s persistent nature, she eventually gives in. She wanted to tell him anyway, so she takes a deep breath and exhales loudly. “So... I’ve been seeing this guy. It’s kinda... on and off but I am seeing him... sort of.” Soojung makes sure that she puts an emphasis on her ‘kind of’ and ‘sort of’s since she herself did not really know what was going on between her and that famous EXO member. “You know who I’m talking about right..?” she tilts her head towards him, awaiting his answer. She really did not want to say it herself, she was still too embarrassed to even admit. She felt stupid really, for even liking him it the first place. It all seems so plotted. A big SM Entertainment plot for publicity.

“I’ll just–” She nods towards the direction of the counter and gestures at her basket; she means to imply that she’ll be there paying for her purchases and waiting for Krystal. She turns and walks over to the short queue which dwindles quickly; she pays with cash when it’s her turns–she and the rest of the members have long ago learned that it’s better to do that, so the manager doesn’t know that they all have hidden snacks in the nooks and crannies of their rooms. After making her transaction, she hugs the paper bag that she’s given after, and lingers close to the exit of the store while she eyes the direction where she assumes Krystal will be coming from.

[ivsoojung-blog]

Soojung walks over to the aisle of sanitary necessities and grabbed a pack of pads, embarrassingly enough, before she proceeds to walk over to the counter to pay. She sees mina all set and ready to go, standing by the cash register. She glances over to mina with an awkward smile and quickly looks away. She pulls out her wallet to pay for her item. Immediately stuffing it into her bag once done with the transaction out of embarrassment. Though pads were an item every girl needs, Soojung was not yet comfortable enough around Mina to be so open about things. Once done, she walks over to the older girl and greets her. “Okay. Shall we go now?”

More like I’m your fan, really, is the answer that comes to Mina’s head when Krystal asks her if she’s a fan of Kai. EXO is nice and all, and she’s met them a few times backstage, but f(x) is a group that she’s been fond of since they debuted. There’s an obvious gap there, but Mina is too shy to admit that, at least for now.

Instead, she focuses on gathering enough courage to take Krystal up on that offer of friendship. Small talk is something she can be good at, but it would probably better if they weren’t in a small convenience store where Krystal is likely to garner attention the longer she stays there.

“Right, I heard about the movie,” she murmurs, shyly tucking a lock of hair behind her ear before flashing a smile at Krystal. “If you’re not too busy–maybe we can, I don’t know.” She looks down at her basket of food items, and then back up at her fellow idol. “I was thinking of getting coffee too, after this?” This is a lie, really, but she’s always up for some caffeine, so it wouldn’t be too out of her way, really.

[ivsoojung-blog]

Standing in the midst of the aisles of snacks and whatnot became tiring quickly. As much as she’d like to continue on talking to the girl in front of her she could not help but think about her sore legs. ‘Must be from all that sitting down on the plane’ she reckons but once she hears Mina utter the word ‘movie’ her attention was centred once more. “Really?” she did not expect that a fellow idol knew of her activities, though there were articles on Soojung’s activities overseas she did not think that Mina had read any of it. “Coffee?” she repeats, to her relief, it was an invitation. She didn’t have to stand awkwardly in the middle of the convenience store any longer. “Sure. I’d love to. Let me just get a few things and we can pay for our stuff the we can go.” she says before her eyes wander in search of her much needed item.

[ PUSHBUTTON @ F/W SEOUL FASHION WEEK 2016 ]

Fashion Week has always been hectic for Im Jinah. This year in particular she was invited to more shows than she could generally handle, and although she would love to go to all of them and hang out in after parties until the early morning, she couldn’t. At times like these Jinah would grumble and whine about her excessive workload in China, wishing more than anything to stay comfortably in her home country and not leave her social circles for lonely nights in an empty hotel room. Thankfully, tonight is not going to be one of those nights. 

        “Nana-ssi! Nana– look this way!” 

The photographers shouted their instructions as the tall girl spun on her heel and looked over her shoulder to show off the detailing on her Philip Lim dress, also debuting her newly cut and dyed brunette locks (and new bangs! It’s a huge deal!). Long legs in high heels made their way in the venue, air kissing industry acquaintances and squeal-hugging old model friends before she found her name in one of the seats on the front row and immediately glanced at her immediate neighbours. To her left read an unfamiliar name, but to her right read a name that is all too familiar not only to the public, but also in her own circle of friends. 

                                                                                               (Jung Soojung.)

   (And Im Jinah let a pretty little smile bloom across rose coloured lips.)

[ivsoojung-blog]

This time around, Soojung did not have much time on her hands. She was swamped with schedules, shoots, and other obligations that she did not have it in her schedule to attend all the shows in this year’s Seoul Fashion Week. Fall/Winter was always (and will always be) her favourite line though, and pushbutton was one of the brands that she had her eye on so she made sure that she attended this one at least. 

Upon entering, she did not want to make too much noise out of her presence. Luna was supposed to be the representative for f(x) this year so it was important that the spotlight was on her but she managed to find her seat with ease through the alternative entry way. She sits comfortably and waits for the show to start, excited to see what the line had to offer this season. 

The lights dimmed a little. It was a clear sign that the show was about to start soon. Rows started filling up, the seats next to her were already full and right beside her, she noticed a familiar looking figure. A tall modelesque female. Soojung caught a glance of her face -- just by its side. The prominent jawline, the pretty clear skin, and the obvious name tag on the seat made her realise that it was Nana. A fellow idol whose fashion sense she had admired from afar.

And here she was again. In that awkward position where she questions herself whether she should say hello to the girl beside her or not. ‘She didn’t really know her personally so it would be weird’ was her initial thought of it; so she just sits there and hoped that maybe Nana would greet her first.
