The Penthouse Headcanons

Hey!! This is my first post I’ve ever done. I never thought I would actually make one here but here I am😭 anyway I’m making this because I really love this k-drama but I don’t see a lot of stuff about it in here so I’m doing some headcanons….because I can

- Most of the Hera palace kids don’t know how to cook except Rona, Jenny & Eunbyeol

I just get that vibe from them. Minhyuk and his dad rely on their mom for cooking and cleaning. The twins have their own maid who does that. Seokhoon might know basic stuff but not enough. I definitely think Jenny cooks with her mom sometimes. Ha Eunbyeol learned to try and impress Seokhoon. Rona definitely helps her mom around the kitchen

- Seokkyung can’t sleep when there’s thunder and lighting at nighttime.

This ain’t exactly a headcanon, Seokhoon confirmed that in season 1? I believe. I remember he said that to his father. I just felt like this needed to be brought to light

- Shin Suryeon’s love language is definitely quality time. You can’t tell me otherwise

- Seokkyung and Seokhoon definitely find comfort and security in each other.

I feel they both suffer from nightmares due to multiple reasons so I can imagine one of them waking up to the other texting or calling in the middle of the night about how they can’t sleep, and the other person shows up at their room a few minutes later and they just end up talking or cuddling to sleep

- Mari definitely saw Rona as her own daughter when Yoon Hee died.

She took her in and even left her husband because he didn’t want to have anything to do with Rona. That’s some motherly love right there.

- Shim Suryeon took many self defense and fighting classes

Have you SEEN the way this girl handles Joo Dantae sometimes😭the lord knows getting into a fight with her will leave on the ground with a broken nose.

- Ha Yoon Chul takes Eunbyeol to go eat out secretly behind Seojins back

Seojin only has her daughter eat certain and extremely healthy foods that are “fit for singer”. Yoon Chul just wants to make sure his daughter can enjoy all types of food and take her out so she doesn’t stay cooped up inside the penthouse.

- Kang Mari definitely likes women👌🏾

I rest my case….

- Jenny had a crush on Rona at one point, but it eventually went away

- Yoon Hee and Rona have karaoke nights

- Min Hyuk had a biiiiiigggg crush on Seokhoon

That was actually revealed by min Hyuks actor that it was originally written for min hyuk to be in love with seokhoon

That’s all I could think of😅 what are some of your headcanons?

Alchemy of Souls (Part 1 & 2)

This is definite another favorite of mine; right next to Scarlet Heart Ryeo. Alchemy of Souls & Alchemy of Soul: Light and Shadow tell the story a young group of mage who have to fight against the greed of soul shifters and the sorcerous that conjure the spell. The story has a perfect balance of humor, action, romance, and suspense in a beautifully threaded plot.

The story begins with Naksu, a powerful female assassin, who wants to avenge the murder of her father as she follows her master's orders. And Jang Ok trying to unlock the power within him in his quest to becoming the mage everyone is trying to prevent him to become because of the truth of his birth. These two meet when Jang Ok has left his last master and she has shifted to the body of a blind girl in order to escape death. But she is no longer the powerful mage she had been, now that she is trapped in this body and in order to regain her power, she accepts becoming Jang Ok's master disguised as servant.

These two lives are entwined in a tangle of intrigue, misunderstanding and friendships that are strengthened and forged as Naksu as Mu Deok and Jang Ok walk the challenging terrain to make Jang Ok reach the highest level of a mage.

I fell in love with the characters, their personalities, their struggles and feelings. The end of the first part broke my heart.

The second part starts 3 years after Mu Deok's death and Jang Ok's returning from the afterlife with the ice stone. Jang Ok who is surrounded by shadows, and the pain of losing the love of his life, has become the most powerful mage and carries the responsibility of destroying soul shifters. Meanwhile, the two souls that had co-existed in Mu Deok's body are now enclosed in Naksu's body. But this time, both souls have lost their memories and powers and are imprisoned in the Jinyowon household. It is through Jin Bu Yeon's interaction with Jang Ok and the others that she slowly regains her powers and memories. In this last part, the youth come together to defeat the greed and selfishness of the king, queen, and everyone who sought to gain power through the alchemy of souls and the ice stone.

This series was definitely worth the wait! I recommend it to everyone. I will be thinking about this story for a long time. I know I will be watching this one multiple times.

Scanned through some parts of Tale of the Nine Tailed while it was screening after dropping it. Liked ep 9. Liked the part where Ji Ah and Lee Rang are trapped in a world they fear. They have to overcome the fear to exit. Lee Yeon only can choose to save one of them and he chooses to save his half brother. Liked how Ji Ah is smart and observant.

My Top Solo Leveling Ships

Wanted to talk a little about them, so I'll just list three main reasons why I like them otherwise this post will be endless. There are a lot of other ships I like, but these are the main ones

It's a little unhinged, but that shouldn't be new

1. ChoiBaek

This shouldn't be a surprise

They are aware of the other's intentions without needing to tell each other. They both read other people and each other very well. The only reason they don't get along is because when both of them want the same thing (recruiting Sung Jin-Woo, a gate in the area, etc), they are both very willing to fight for what they want and use their perceptiveness to their advantage. One of them doesn't mind having his thoughts being known while the other minds a lot

They both want their guild become stronger but not at the expense of their members. They have the same morals, but the actions they take because of their morals are different. Baek Yoon-Ho wants to make his guild stronger by focusing on what his members need as individuals (paying them more, training new recruits with stronger and more experienced members, etc). Choi Jong-In wants to make his guild stronger by focusing on improving how the teams work together (hunting in a orderly way to minimize injuries as much as possible, taking a leadership role to make sure none of the members are falling behind, making sure the teams are adequately prepared, etc). Both of them care a lot about other people, though they don’t make it obvious to others

Both know the other is strong (Choi Jong-In defends Baek Yoon-Ho when Sung Jin-Woo thinks Yoon-Ho is struggling during the Jeju sparring match while Baek Yoon-Ho is aware of Choi Jong-In's strength during the Jeju Raid) but tend to underestimate themselves (Baek Yoon-Ho believing he wouldn't have been able to win against the Japanese S-Ranks when he held out for a while on his own against two of them, and Choi Jong-In seeing his title as "a joke" after comparing himself to Sung Jin-Woo when he always has to limit how much of his powers he actually uses because of the people around him or the environment he is in)

This got long anyways... sorry. The others are shorter

2. SungPark

I wanted to see them more than the main couple

They are both selfless to the point where they make sure others are alright before taking care of themselves

They both want their family to be safe and happy and make taking care of their children their priority. Park Kyung-Hye tells her son it's okay for him to be a hunter, even though it's the reason why Sung Il-Hwan is gone, and she understands that it's something both her husband and son feel like they need to do

The way Kyung-Hye kept waiting for her husband to return home and knew the exact moment when he wouldn't be coming back Ripped my heart to SHREDS-

They were so in love laskdjfasdlf

3. MinLee

AKA younger!SungPark

Both of them have similar trauma, so they're able to help each other, especially since they're both retired

Even they have trauma, they have put their fears aside to help people more. Both participate in the last Jeju raid despite Min Byung-Gyu being traumatized from the last one and Lee Ju-Hee being traumatized from her previous raids

The way Lee Ju-Hee hardly showed up after she told Sung Jin-Woo she was retiring and Min Byung-Gyu barely being mentioned besides his trip to Japan before the Jeju Raid? There's so much potential for them to actually meet-

I see them as the "bunny couple"

4. ChulWoo

This was actually one of the first ships I really got into

The way Woo Jin-Chul knew Sung Jin-Woo from the beginning and was watching Sung Jin-Woo get stronger without realizing it at first

The way Woo Jin-Chul looked at Sung Jin-Woo in the new timeline when he remembered the previous timeline-

Honestly, in my opinion, Sung Jin-Woo had more potential with Woo Jin-Chul than Cha Hae-in. Like, Sung Jin-Woo avenging Go Gun-Hee not just for his sake but for Woo Jin-Chul? Sung Jin-Woo actually trying to not give Jin-Chul a headache but failing? I love their dynamic

5. HeeSeok

This is probably the most cracked ship out of these, but it's cute

Both of them have a caring, almost parent-like nature (Park Hee-Jin looking after Han Song-Yi during the Red Gate and Eun-Seok looking after and warning Min Byung-Gyu during the third Jeju Raid)

It's actually possible for them to have known each other despite it not being stated in canon (Eun-Seok was a member of the Fiend Guild, and Park Hee-Jin could have been a member of the Fiend Guild as well before leaving for White Tiger. The game might change this part about Park Hee-Jin, but I'll stick with it for now)

The way Eun-Seok wears a scarf with his hunter's outfit, and then Park Hee-Jin gets stuck in a frost Red Gate? And Park Hee-Jin looks somewhat okay despite it being cold, so it seems like both are fine in cold environments

Actually, in my monarch/ruler AU, Frost Monarch!Eun-Seok could be the reason Park Hee-Jin gets stuck there in that Red Gate...hmm

Weak Hero Character Names

For those who don't know, the Weak Hero webtoon anglicized a bunch of the characters' first names from Korean to English. They don't do this for newly introduced characters anymore AFAIK, but all the names they anglicized initially have been kept that way.

Since I've gotten a few people asking about the names, so I decided to compile a list of their original Korean names. You can find amost of these on their character profiles on the Weak Hero fandom page, but I figured people would appreciate having a quick reference that is all in one place. Hopefully this helps people learn/connect their original names.

Remember, this is not a full character list, it's for finding the Korean names of the characters that had their names anglicized.

The format will be:

Anglicized Name -> Korean Name (common alternative romanizations will be in parenthesis)

Eunjang High

Alex Go -> Go Hyeontak (Hyun-tak)

Ben Park -> Park Humin (Hoo-min)

Colton Choi -> Choi Hyoman (Hyo-man)

Eugene Gale -> Seo Juntae (Jun-tae)

Gerard Jin -> Jin Gayul (Ga-yool)

Gray Yeon -> Yeon Sieun (Shi-eun)

Phillip Kim -> Kim Pilyoung (Pil-young)

Rowan Im -> Im Juyang (Ju-yang)

Teddy Jin -> Jin Taeoh (Tae-oh)

Daehyeon High

Dean Kwon -> Kwon Hyeokjin (Hyuk-jin)

Jake Ji -> Ji Hakho (Hak-ho | Hagho)

Timothy Park -> Park Taegi (Tae-gi)*

Ganghak High

Jared Sun -> Seon Jongwon (Sun Jong-Wan)

Toby Kim -> Kim Dosik (Do-sik)

Wolf Keum -> Keum Seongje (Sung-je)

Hyeongshin High

Forrest Lee -> Lee Sehan (Se-han)

Myles Joo -> Joo Seungjin (Seung-jin)

Robin Ha -> Ha Minjo (Min-jo)

Sam "Grape" Lee -> Lee Gongsam (Gong-sam)

Yeo-il High

Donald Na -> Na Baekjin (Baek-jin)

Kingsley Kwan -> Kwan Seokhyeon (Suk-hyun)

Yoosun High

Harper "Helmet" Ha -> Ha Huicheol (Hee-chul)

Hugo Yoon -> Yun Hoyeong (Yoon Ho-young)

Jack Kang -> Kang Jeongyeon (Jung-yun)

Jimmy Bae -> Bae Jihun (Ji-hun)

Other Recurring/Relevant Characters

Bryce Oh -> Oh Beomseok (Beom-sok)

Julia Chae -> Chae Yujin (Yoo-jin)

Kenny Ji -> Ji Gwangseok (Gwang-seok)

Lala Lee -> Lee Minji (Min-ji)

Lily Nam -> Nam Jeongah (Jung-ah)

Oswald Yang -> Yang Seonghun (Sung-hoon)*

Sean Shin -> Shin Jeongseob (Jung-sub)*

Stephen Ahn -> Ahn Suho (Su-ho)

Wesley Song -> Song Baekkyu (Beak-gyu)

(* These names weren't on the wiki, so I looked at raws.)

Ngl it would have been fun to see the Rulers and Monarchs vessels to have a system of their own, maybe made differently— like one has a book that tells them of future (past) events and other catalogue about the vessel. Another gets visions of their past lives the stronger they become. One gets an animal sidekick that is actually an eldrich being—

But like no one knows the truth until its too late and now they have to either fight each other or be consumed by the System and let the original monarch/ruler take a hold of them.

Which yes first thought was Destruction Monarch Hae in vs canon Jinwoo.

But I'd like to add more:

Liu Zhigang has a strong loyal connection to Woo Jin-Chul due to both of their rulers' (was thinking that Brightest Fragment, aka Jin-Chul's ruler after gunhee dies, has been the first to make the plan in overthrowing the Absolute Being, whereas Zhigang's Ruler had been the first to join AND the one to also kill Ashborn when he rejected in aiding Brightest Fragment's plan. ) (Zhigang's meeting is double spicy with Jinwoo)

Laura being a messenger of the Rulers, her true form being a biblically accurate angel lmao. Her mission in this world is to create the strongest hunter.

Sung ill Hwang falling in love even more after seeing all the many times park Kyung-Hye tried to save her children during the apocalypse in the past timelines.

Christopher Reed having a dramatic break up when their lover refuses to become a Monarch and their body is taken over.

Choi Jong In gets the powers of the Ruler after Christopher dies, and at the same time, Baek Yoon Ho is told he is to be the Beast Monarch.

Love in War

Chapter 3: The Training Begins

------------------------------------------------ Duty After School Fanfic

Wang Tae Man x Fem!OC

Summary:

The Sunshine of 3-2 didn't expect her senior year to end up in the military during an alien apocalypse…

Hwang Ha-Yun was born to have a bright personality. Her name means sun after all. Everyone calls her the 'Sunshine of 3-2'. Mostly everyone gets along with her until she reaches her boiling point where her temper could be as hot as the sun.

Wang Tae Man, the class clown of 3-2, has been her partner in crime since the fateful day she moved next door. They've been inseparable ever since.

With an alien apocalypse added into the mix and traumas resurfaced, what will happen to their relationship? And will they be able to survive?

TW: swearing, playful fighting

[3922 words]

[Other Chapters]

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ha-Yun couldn’t breathe.

Her mother was hugging both her and Soo-Chul too tight. All their faces were practically squished with each other.

“Eomma… can’t… breathe…” wheezed out Ha-Yun.

The woman let go of her children. She looked at them with sad eyes as she brushed their hair with her hands. “I’m going to miss you two.”

“Eomma, it’s just a month,” said Soo-Chul.

“Still!” she protested.

Then, they heard the doorbell and a bark from the main door. Ha-Yun’s face brightened up and adjusted her glasses. She knew exactly who was at the front door. So, she quickly went and opened the door to meet a familiar cute fluffy face and his cute owner. Wait. Did she just call Tae Man cute?

Moving on, Tae Man was holding his puppy, Flanders. Ha-Yun picked him up and cooed at him. "Aww, little Flanders came to say goodbye to me? You are so cute." Tae Man coughed. "Excuse me, Flanders is here to check in his reservation at Hotel Hwang."

Ha-Yun pouted. "I'm gonna miss you, you little furball." She brought the dog inside, leaving the other teen outside. She heard him sigh loudly and stepped inside.

"Eomma, appa! Tae Mannie's here."

"EOMONI ABEOJIIIII!!!" Tae Man hugged the adults tightly. "I'm going to miss you both."

Ha-Yun's father let go of the boy's embrace and patted his shoulder. "Don't get yourself in too much trouble." He leaned in close and whispered, "And don't let guys get too comfy with our Yunnie."

"Yah, appa! I heard that." Ha-Yun pulled Tae Man away from her parents as said boy winked and nodded at her dad.

The three high school seniors stood in line as they bowed their farewells to the parents. "Stay safe, kids!" the mum yelled out as they left the house.

As they walked to school, Tae Man took Ha-Yun's bag and slung it on his shoulder. "Did you pack enough chocolate?"

"Yeah, I even stuffed some in Soo-Chul's bag."

"I packed more just in case."

The girl smiled at him. "Thanks."

"Ew, guys. I don't want to be a third wheel at 7 am in the morning," said Soo-Chul.

The two best friends wrapped their arms around him. "Aww, our Soo-Chul's just sad his best friend lives far away," said Tae Man.

"It's ok, oppa. We won't ignore your presence."

"Yah! Get off me, you two!"

The two burst out laughing at the annoyed boy. "Come on, we're going to be late," Soo-Chul said as he adjusted his bag on his shoulders.

~~

"Wah, it seems like mostly everyone's here," said Ha-Yun as she looked around the class. She didn't expect her classmates to willingly sign up for this program so she assumed they were forced to do it for the extra points.

"Yah, Wang Tae Man, are you selling gum?" Soo-Chul said beside her. The said boy was building a gum castle.

"Yes."

"To chew them after meals?"

"It feels stale after."

So-Yoon and Junhee sighed. Tae Man heard them and offered them each a piece. "Do you want one?"

"Yah, just brush your teeth!"

The girls threw the gum at him and Soo-Chul smacked his head. Only Ha-Yun comforted him. "I brought an extra toothbrush and toothpaste. You better use them."

Tae Man pouted. "Fine..."

Her attention diverted when she saw her girl best friend coming in. "Yah, Lee Nara!"

"Hi, Ha-Yunnie!"

Ha-Yun was just about to ask her a question when Duk-joong screamed Nara's name from the other side of the class. The two girls' heads turned to see Kimchi trying to shut his best friend up while his cheeks were blushing.

Ha-Yun turned to Nara with a teasing smile and was about to say something when Mrs Park and some military dude came in. She crossed her arms. "Is the universe against me talking today?"

Her friend laughed and told her to go sit at her place. She did as told but noticed Soyeon being captivated by the military guy. Ha-Yun silently laughed as her friend slapped Wutaek away.

"I have someone to introduce to you all," announced Mrs Park.

The military guy saluted. "Loyalty. Nice to meet you. I'm First Lieutenant Lee Chun Ho, who will be Class 3-2's platoon leader."

Ha-Yun sat up straighter. His seriousness gave her a nervous feeling. This military training was getting too real.

"First Lt. Lee will explain about the training," said Mrs Park.

"Yah, he has a diamond on his forehead," Il-ha pointed out.

Mrs Park quickly shushed them as Lt. Lee took the podium. "You'll be assigned to the Second Platoon of the Sungjin Division Combat Unit, and I'll be your platoon leader. Most of the training will take place after school when your regular classes are over."

The class wasn't happy with that. What do you mean after 8 hours of school, they have military training? They were already tired after 1 hour of class. Ha-Yun took out her chocolate and took a bite.

Lt. Lee continued, "On days when you have agendas, training will take priority over classes. So don't get confused later. Banjang?"

Yoojung stood up. "Yes?'

"You're the Senior Private."

"What's that?" Ha-Yun asked Nara. "It means she will be our leader if the commander isn't here. Which is basically the same duties as Class President."

"Next, I'll select a clerk who'll record your training, as well as your videos to send home. Any volunteers?"

Nobody raised their hand.

"No one? Broadcasting Club, anyone?"

No response.

"Then I'll randomly select-"

"Mr. Commander?" interrupted Mrs Park. "Can I recommend someone? Young-Hoon-ah, will you have a go?"

"Me?"

"Yes. I think you'd learn a lot from the experience."

"What should I learn?"

Il-ha spoke up. "Jang Young-Hoon. Just do it. It's not a big deal."

"Then do it yourself," Ha-Yun muttered. Tae Man snickered quietly at her retort.

Young-Hoon turned to Il-ha. "Then you do it." Ha-Yun's jaw dropped as Tae Man's laughs were shushed by Mrs Park.

"Give it a go and if you don't like it, I'll let you swap," said Mrs Park.

"I have to study. I don't want to waste my time."

"Damn..." whispered Tae Man. Even Ha-Yun was surprised by his answer.

"That's fine," said Lt. Lee. He looked around and his eyes settled on Kimchi. "You there, Private."

Kimchi looked surprised and turned to Wutaek to double-check. "He means you, idiot," said Wutaek. "Who... me?" Kimchi asked Lt. Lee.

"You're the clerk. Any objections?"

A few giggles were heard when Kimchi reluctantly agreed to the job.

Then, Lt. Lee said, "You get three bonus points."

"What?!"

"So does the Senior Private."

"Just like that?!"

"So many points..."

"There's a bonus point system separate from the extra CSAT points. You'll be scored for your attitude and aptitude, and ten bonus points equals one extra CSAT point. Accumulate 30 penalty points and you'll be discharged. All the extra CSAT points you earned will be scrubbed."

"I knew something was up," Tae Man said to Ha-Yun. The girl nodded. "They won't make it easy."

"Then, we'll head to the dormitory," said Lt. Lee.

Ha-Yun turned to Tae Man. "The school's big enough for dorms?"

~~

The school's big enough for dorms. They're using the lower form empty classes. The girls' dorm is next to the boys'. So Ha-Yun could hear the boys' excitement next door. Meanwhile, the girls are unpacking all their makeup and other necessities.

Ha-Yun was watching Aesol, Yoojung, and Nara play Go-Stop. It was fun watching Nara bluff the other two by pretending to not know how to play. She nearly choked on her strawberry milk when the other two caught on.

"Yah yah yah, guys!" called out Hana. "What does 'personal firearms' mean?"

"I don't know," said Soon-Yi.

"Personal guns, you idiot," said Bora, eyes staying on her tablet.

"Isn't it too early for us to get guns?" asked Ha-Yun to the three girls in front of her.

Nara shrugged. "I don't know but I'm kinda excited."

Ha-Yun rolled her eyes. "Of course you are..."

She noticed one of the military leaders assigned to their class walking in. What was her name again? Sergeant... Seo? Ah yes, Sergeant Seo walked in with her hands on her hips. Oh, this meant trouble.

"Attention."

The girls ignored her.

"Attention!"

Now they noticed her.

"Do you think this is a camping trip?"

Soyoon hugged her bag of chips closer to her chest.

"Listen carefully. Any items that you won't need here must be submitted at once." She held up a stuffed teddy bear. "What is this?"

Soon-Yi tried to snatch it from her but the sergeant was faster. "Curling irons, toys, lipsticks!"

The girls hurriedly tried (but failed) to hide all their items as the military woman continued to point out all the banned items. "Foundation, perfume... Scented candle- A scented candle??"

Soyeon blew out the flame and smiled sheepishly at the woman. The woman sighed and continued, "Your foundation, lipstick... yah, you little-"

Yoojung, Nara, Aesol, and Ha-Yun got caught trying to hide the cards. The Banjang quickly covered the cards with a blanket and the four smiled innocently at Sergeant Seo who told them not to move as she moved on to Bora.

"What? Cigarettes?"

Bora rolled her eyes. To be fair, she shouldn't have placed it somewhere obvious.

Sergeant Seo was at her limit. "GIRLS, GET MOVING AT ONCE!"

The girls scurried to get rid of all of their banned items. Ha-Yun worriedly approached the sergeant and asked, "Snacks are allowed right?"

"What snacks?"

"You see, I need to eat chocolate sometimes..." The girl was clearly nervous to talk about her condition.

"Ha-Yun-ah." Yoojung appeared beside her. I'll talk to the sergeant for you."

Ha-Yun sent an appreciative nod to Yoojung and left to help the others.

"Yah, Sunshine!" called Bora. "Can you help hide my cigarettes?"

~~

Class 2 gathered at the school field. Ha-Yun was in between Tae Man and Soo-Chul in the line to get their firearms. "Did you get anything confiscated?" Ha-Yun asked the two.

The two boys shook their heads. "Deokjoong's figurines did though. I swear I saw him tear up," said Soo-Chul. "How about you, Yunnie? Are your chocolates safe?"

The girl nodded. "Yeah, thanks to Yoojung."

"Wahh, there's nothing that girl can't do," awed Tae Man.

Suddenly, Ha-Yun felt a pang of jealousy shooting through her. Her lips formed into a frown.

Tae Man noticed her change of expression. "Yah, Sunny. Are you ok?"

"Hm?" The girl quickly smiled and adjusted her glasses. "I'm fine. Just felt weird for a second."

Tae Man smiled back and ruffled her hair. He turned around just in time as the line was moving. Ha-Yun looked back at her brother who had an annoyed expression on him. "What?" she asked.

Soo-Chul just sighed. "One day you'll understand. Now, hurry up. You're holding up the line."

After getting their guns, the classmates gathered at the benches. Tae Man was helping his best friend tie her hair up. He liked doing it and Ha-Yun had to admit, he did it better than her.

Ha-Yun inspected her own firearm. It felt weird holding it. She never thought she'd hold something with a purpose to kill. Her whole ambition is saving lives not taking them. She could only hope the medical training would come faster. "Is this even safe?" she pondered.

"Is military training itself safe?" Young-Shin said from in front of her. She liked talking to him. He was one of the few rational ones in the class. They'd have gossip sessions about the dumb things their classmates do.

"Good point." The girl sighed. "I'm just worried someone might accidentally shoot someone else."

"Don't worry yourself too much, Sunshine-"

He was interrupted by the sound of five of their classmates, including Wutaek, pointing their guns at Tae Man. Ha-Yun pointed to them and turned to Young-Shin. "My case in point."

Tae Man ran from the group as they started chasing him to the field. Soo-Chul stood up and joined them. "YAH, DO SOO-CHUL COME BACK HERE! I DON'T NEED YOU TO GET SHOT TOO!" yelled Ha-Yun to no avail.

Sergeant Kim Won Bin also came and tried to stop them. He also failed.

"Yah, ahjussi!" called out Soyeon.

"I'M NOT AN AHJUSSI!"

Ha-Yun and Young-Shin snickered at his reaction. It seemed like she hit a critical spot.

"I'm... 21. I'm only two years older than you guys."

Ha-Yun's jaw dropped. "I call bullshit," said Young-Shin. "Ditto," she replied.

"Ahjussi," Soyeon said again.

"Hm?" Sergeant Kim replied before realizing. He took another bullet.

"Can I get a clean one?" asked Soyeon. "This one looks used."

"They're all used," said the sergeant. "Come on down at once!"

A whistle interrupted him. It came from Lt. Lee. He looked pissed. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

Silence.

"ASSEMBLE!"

Everyone reluctantly got up and assembled on the field. Ha-Yun quickly smacked Soo-Chul and Wutaek's head, plus kicked Tae Man's leg because he was too tall for her. "I'll kill you guys later," she angry-whispered.

"Yes, ma'am," the three chorused.

Lt. Lee began to walk between the class, forcing them to separate like the Red Sea. "The firearms that you just received... could save..." he stopped in front of Il-Ha. "Or kill you." He snatched the boy's gun.

"He finally did what I wanted to do. It's dangerous that he's holding a gun. Damn, I need chocolate," thought Ha-Yun.

Lt. Lee continued, "In times of emergency, the only thing you can trust isn't your friend or colleague next to you..." He held up the firearm. "...but your firearm in your hand. So is it OKAY for you... to handle it carelessly?"

The classmates around Ha-Yun hung their heads. She finally let out a breath of relief. That's one less thing to worry about.

"I am asking you guys," commanded Lt. Lee.

"No, it's not okay," chorused the class.

Lt. Lee pointed to his right. "See that goalpost over there?"

Ha-Yun looked at the goalpost. Oh no.

"The first three people."

Ha-Yun looked around if anybody else caught on but everyone was just confused.

"Go."

She noticed Young-Shin adjusting his glasses whilst inching away. "Yah, Jo Young-Shin!" she ran after him as he started sprinting. The rest of the class followed suit.

Somehow, Jang-Soo managed to surpass both of them and got first, Ha-Yun and Young-Shin fell in line behind him. The two of them sent a death glare at the champion.

Jang-Soo shrugged. "You guys are slow."

~~

The day ended with the girls walking dragging themselves back into the dorms. Ha-Yun placed her gun next to her bed and fell face flat on the mattress.

"I'm dying." She heard Yeonju say.

"Me too," said Soyeon. "I'm dying because I'm so smitten by the platoon leader. He's totally my type!"

Ha-Yun laughed in her pillow.

"Yah... what about our handsome classmate, Do Soo-Chul?" asked Yeonju.

That made Ha-Yun sit up. "Yah! Don't talk about my brother like that. It's disgusting."

"Sorry, Sunshine. Yeonju's right," said Hana.

Ha-Yun covered her ears with her pillow. She had enough.

"It's okay, Ha-Yun-ah. He's not mature enough," said Soyeon.

"Thank you for noticing."

Nara nudged her. "Says you. Tae Man's the most immature in our class."

"No he isn't!" denied Ha-Yun. "Sure, he usually is but you guys never take him seriously anyway." She crossed her arms. "I don't even know how he relates to this conversation."

"The reason why you're so defensive about him is why," teased Soyeon.

Ha-Yun's ears turned pink. "I don't get what you mean-"

"Girls, girls, look at my rash!" exclaimed Hana. "This is what happens when I'm in the sun even for a short moment."

Soyeon worriedly checked her own arms. "What about me?"

Ha-Yun gave them her large tube of sunscreen. "I knew you guys would forget to wear it."

The two girls quickly rubbed sunscreen on their arms. "That's not how it works- Nevermind."

"Guys, hand over your rifles. Don't leave them everywhere," said Yoojung.

Ha-Yun, being the only one who heard her, picked up her gun and stored it. Yoojung sent her an appreciative nod and looked back at the rest. "Yah!"

"I swear this is like the fifth time today someone had to scream to grab their attention," mumbled Ha-Yun as she headed back to her bed.

"Do you want to do that race again?" threatened Yoojung. Damn, didn't know she was capable of being scary.

~~

It's nighttime and Ha-Yun forgot where she put her conditioner. She headed into the boys' dorm next door. "Chul-ah, did I pack my conditioner in your bag?"

"Yah, I thought you only packed your chocolates in here." Her brother handed her his bag.

Ha-Yun rummaged through the bag and found the bottle. "Found it!"

Soo-Chul rolled his eyes and snatched back his bag. Wutaek laughed at the siblings' interaction. "Might as well use his whole bag, Ha-Yunnie."

"Yah, Im Wutaek, say your last words," she said before tackling Wutaek down.

The girl was picked up by a pair of familiar arms. "Come on, Sunny. There's no need for violence," said Tae Man as he adjusted her glasses.

Ha-Yun blew her hair out of her face and sent a glare at Wutaek who stuck his tongue out. It's as if she had two brothers.

Then, Il-Ha came running in. "Yah, this is crazy! Gather around."

Everyone formed a circle around him to see the thing on his phone. Ha-Yun rested her chin on Tae Man's shoulder. The video was showing a bunch of soldiers at a zoo who SHOT THE LIONS?!

"What's wrong with them?!" she exclaimed.

"Wahh shibal, isn't this fake?" asked Wutaek.

"Yeah, it's got to be," said Huirak. "Why would soldiers kill animals? This is totally fake."

"No."

Everyone's heads turned to Deok-Joong. "I've seen this before," he said seriously; he climbed on the tables and sat on it. "You see, one of the things that the government does before war breaks out... is getting rid of the animals in zoos. Tigers! Lions! Elephants! They kill such vicious animals."

"But why?" asked Kimchi.

"What he said," Ha-Yun signaled to the Nobita-looking dude.

Duk-Jeong turned to them. "If starving animals escape... they'll eat people. That's why."

"Then what about the animals that aren't vicious?" asked Tae Man.

"Well... they'll be just left there to starve and die."

"That's too cruel," said Ha-Yun. Tae Man nodded.

Wutaek snatched Deok-Joong's bag of chips. "Starve to death, you idiot."

"Yah, let me eat the chips-"

"Hold on." Young-Shin grabbed his shoulder. "If what Deok-Joong is saying is true... it means a war has broken out."

Ha-Yun took a bite of her chocolate and offered it to Tae Man who happily accepted it.

"That's right," said Deok-Joong. "It's either that or it will begin very soon."

Ha-Yun shuddered. Tae Man placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. "No way," he said. "Deok-Joongie, who told you that?"

"What?"

"Where did you hear about it?"

"Oh, Machine Gun Parade March. Animation."

Tae Man rolled his eyes. "Aish..."

Everyone walked away from the weeb...

"YOU DESERVE A BEATING, YOU PIECE OF SHIT!"

Tae Man placed him in a headlock. The rest joined him in the abuse. Ha-Yun took Tae Man's neck pillow and hit Deok-Joong's head.

Unbeknownst to them, Lt. Lee walked in upon hearing the commotion. "WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?"

Everyone stopped. Tae Man, Soo-Chul, and Young-Shin immediately hid Ha-Yun behind them. Lt. Lee looked at Young-Hoon.

"Where are you going?"

"I have to study."

"You're not allowed to go off on your own. If you want to study, do it here."

"They're too loud. I can't focus here." He glanced back. "Kwon Il-Ha over there has his cell phone."

Lt. Lee entered the room more and looked straight into Il-Ha's eyes. "You're not allowed to keep your cell phone. Did you not know that?" He held out his hand. "Hand it over."

Il-Ha groaned. "Hurry up," whispered Wutaek. Il-Ha reluctantly handed the phone to their platoon leader.

"You violated the rules for cell phone use. You get three penalty points."

"Okay, sure," said Il-Ha mockingly.

"I swear he needs a good punch of sense knocked in him," thought Ha-Yun.

Lt. Lee turned around and left the room. Il-Ha approached Young-Hoon. "Yah, I'l talk to you later."

"We can talk now."

"Aish, you little piece of-" Il-Ha was just about to punch him when-

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Lt. Lee appeared at the door again. "Follow me, both of you. And private Hwang Ha-Yun?"

Ha-Yun peeked her head from behind Tae Man's shoulder. "Yes, sir?"

"You better be out of this room by the time night watch starts."

She saluted. "Yes, sir."

~~

Ha-Yun, in fact, stayed a bit longer than she should. Not her fault when Wutaek invited her to a game of Uno, one of the few games the military let them play and only at night. See, she usually wouldn't say she'd actually kill someone. But if it's Wutaek, then yes.

He was on his fifth round of winning. One last card in his hand. "I swear you are cheating, Im Wutaek."

"You just have a skill issue, Ha-Yunnie," he said as he placed his last card. "Uno Game."

"YAH, COME HERE!" she grabbed him by the collar. Then a rumble came that made her lose her grip. Thankfully, Tae Man caught her in time before her face planted on the table.

"Yunnie, are you okay?" asked her brother.

"Yeah, I'm fine." She straightened out her clothes. "What was that?"

"That almost made me jump," said Wutaek.

Tae Man still hadn't loosened his grip around Ha-Yun's waist. "Do you think the three are okay?" he asked referring to Il-Ha, Young-Hoon, and Kimchi.

Soo-Chul coughed upon seeing Tae Man's hand placement. That made the two immediately separate from each other with blush tinting their cheeks.

"I'm sure Lt. Lee is with them," said Ha-Yun as she finished her bar of chocolate. However, she had a bad feeling in her stomach.

~~

Class 3-2, Hwang Ha-Yun

Hi, eomma, appa! Soo-Chul and Tae Man are doing fine. It's hard to get them out of trouble on the first day. They almost got themselves shot. I don't think they should be given guns.

My other classmates are doing well too. Remember Nara? She's loving it. Her grandpa used to be in the army and already taught her how to shoot a gun. It's scary sometimes. Yah, Kimchi! I can see you blushing behind the camera.

(Ha-Yun-ah!)

BAHAHAH!! That was Kimchi. He's our class' clerk. He's the one who records everything that we do. If you forgot how he looks like, just imagine Nobita from Doraemon.

(Hey!)

Okok sorry sorry. Eomma, appa. My friend, Soyeon, has a crush on our commander. She used to love coming over just to talk to oppa but now apparently she likes mature men. Can't judge her though. The lieutenant can be dashing. Kimchi, don't tell anyone I said that.

Oh! And I have this classmate, Young-Hoon. He always studies and never talks to anyone. I tried offering a chocolate to him and he declined. Who declines chocolate?! I pity him though. It's hard being pressured to always be at the top of the school.

And it's even harder when Kwon Il-Ha keeps picking on him. Like what's his deal?

Yoojung was also very nice to me. She helped explain my condition so I could keep my supply of chocolate.

And Tae Mannie-

(Ha-Yun-ah)

Yes?

(All that rambling and you forgot about yourself)

Oh. I'm fine.

[TRANS] Last Fantasy Album and Song Introductions

ALBUM INTRODUCTION

IU, who filled the whole world with ‘Good Day’ last year, is finally coming back with a new album for her fans. IU's new album [Last Fantasy] is a full-length album that she has released 2 years after her 1st album [Growing Up] and this album was produced by Cho Young-chul, who created the ‘IU Syndrome’ last year. Producer Cho Young-chul focused on approaching and expressing IU's musicality in more diverse ways through this album.

The meaning behind the title of the new album, [Last Fantasy], is that the album depicts all the thoughts, imaginations, and fantasies of IU as she looks upon the beginning of her 20s, in this moment at the end of her teenage years and the album contains various sides of IU that music fans want from her through her songs. This 2nd full-length album, which contains a total of 13 songs, attracts much attention with the participation of the best musicians and composers in Korea. Musicians who need no further explanation, including Kim Kwang-jin, Yoon Sang, Jung Jae-hyung, Lee Juck, Kim Hyung-seok, Jung Suk-won, Kim Hyun-chul, Yoon Jong-shin, Lee Min-soo, Corinne Bailey Rae, G. Gorilla, and Ra.D, all participated in IU's full-length album.

As this is IU’s first full-length album in a long time, she put in all her efforts and sincerity from many different angles, to make the album more perfect. In addition to putting her own self-composed song on the album, IU participated in writing the lyrics for a number of songs, showing a more mature side to her musical sensibility and carefully considered what the right tone would be for each song, as she did her best to improve the completion of the album.

First of all, the first track, ‘Secret’, is the work of composer Jung Suk-won, showing intense charm as a song that opens the door to IU’s second full-length album. Featuring an arrangement that emphasizes a clear story development and contrast, the song begins with IU's clear tone and a lyrical melody, then develops gradually with vocals that become more powerful and the grand sound of rock opera. Standing at the center of the song, IU showed powerful vocals that led all the music with her. The second track, ‘Sleeping Prince’, is the work of Yoon Sang, a composer who brought out IU's deep emotions with ‘Only I Didn't Know’. This song, which was brought to life again with an innocent charm that only IU can show, allows the listener to experience clear and bright emotions as if one were watching a fairytale. Just like how composer Yoon Sang felt that it was fortunate that IU sang this song when she was a teenager, IU's cute vocals and the warm arrangement meet to produce this high-quality song.

The third track, ‘Holding a Star in My Heart’ is a song by Kim Kwang-jin that conveys a deep sound that cannot be described with words. IU's vocals that sound like she is calmly reciting the song, together with the slow-flowing melodies, give a comforting feeling and Kim Kwang-jin's voice at the end of the song is touching to hear. The song, infused deeply with composer Kim Kwang-jin’s unique emotions, appeals to different generations. The fourth track, ‘YOU&I’, the title track of this second full-length album, is a collaboration between composer Lee Min-soo and lyricist Kim Eana, who created ‘Good Day’, and conveys IU's diverse emotions and upgraded musicality. ‘YOU&I’ is a song that once again showcases the charm of IU's vocals, with a mysterious and strange concept of a teenage girl who travels through time into the future. With a composition that crosses minor and major chords, a musical arrangement that stands out with its colorful and fantasy-like feeling of real sound using instruments rarely found in pop songs such as harp and horn, the song also allows you to experience IU's diverse vocal expression ability.

The fifth track, ‘Wallpaper Pattern’ is the work of composer Yoon Jong-shin, which shows IU's subtle emotions. It is a song that combines lyrical melodies with IU's warm tone and IU's interpretation of the song stands out as she perfectly interprets poetic lyrics that express ordinary emotions experienced in our daily lives. In particular, composer Jung Suk-won participated in the arrangement, giving it a more detailed sound. IU's song of encouragement for all the uncles in the world! The sixth track is ‘Uncle’ with composer Lee Juck. This song was completed with a discussion between IU and Lee Juck and IU's ‘aegyo’ (cute) tone captures the hearts of uncles along with the bouncy melody of the song. Lee Juck's rap made by IU's forced(?) request and IU's shout-out to her uncles are highlights to pay attention to in the song.

‘Wisdom Tooth’ is the work of composer G.Gorilla, who is loved by fans for his unique emotions, and is a song about the heart of a girl who suffered the heartache of her first love. As it is her first love, IU participated in writing the lyrics, to express more strongly the heartache from the perspective of a teenager in a pure and fun way and IU actually wrote the lyrics of the song after talking to her mother, expressing her honest feelings. ‘Everything's Alright’, the eighth track with a fast tempo and exciting feeling, is the work of composer Kim Hyun-chul. The song, which depicts the cold atmosphere of fighting with a lover, brings out that atmosphere by combining the warm sound of the actual performance and the harmony of IU and composer Kim Hyun-chul, who also featured in the song, and has a charm to it that leaves a lasting impression.

The ninth track, ‘Last Fantasy’, is the work of composer Kim Hyung-suk, and sounds even larger in scale than you would imagine a movie soundtrack to sound like. This song, which contains the grandeur of the 50-member orchestra, is a grand song that lasts more than six minutes and overwhelms its listeners. It is an impressive song that expresses IU's present state at the end of her teenage years with lyrics that ask someone to hold her hand so that she doesn’t fall into her dream when she opens the door to reality. The tenth track, ‘Teacher’ is by composer Ra.D, which IU also participated in writing the lyrics for. It is a song customized for IU from the start and a lot of time was invested in writing the lyrics to include all kinds of thoughts and concerns that 19-year-old IU had. The calm acoustic sound and emotional vocals of IU and Ra.D are combined to complete the charming song.

The eleventh track, ‘The Abandoned’, is a self-composed song written by IU. ‘The Abandoned’, which gives the feeling of a deep darkness, is a song that IU has worked on for a long time, and goes contrary to the bright side of herself that she has shown so far. This self-composed song by IU brings out her deep inner emotions that we never imagined her to have, instilling another kind of expectation from her fans with regard to her potential. The twelfth track, ‘4AM’, is a song by British singer-songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae, with lyrics written by IU and the song was completed with a collaborative effort between the two. The lyrics draw attention with their depiction of the unstable emotions at 4 a.m. and IU's deep vocals that she has not shown before allows the song leave an impression on the listener. IU sang this song by Corinne Bailey Rae, a musician she has said she loves the most since her debut, and that makes the song mean a lot to IU.

The finale of the full-length album, ‘L'amant’, is a song that allows the listener to experience the musical emotions of composer Jung Jaehyung as they are, through his work. IU’s mournful and thick vocals that flow through the sorrowful jazz melody add to the flair of the song. This song, which was fully completed with IU’s song interpretation ability, is a song that allows us to imagine the future of IU who shows that she can pull off a variety of genres. IU's second full-length album can be said to be a record that will remind the digital music generation of the ‘value of the album’ just by the team of participating musicians and the high quality of the songs. Let us all listen to the ‘charm of music’ that IU, who is highly anticipated by fans for her musical ability that combines musicality and popular appeal, will present through this album.

Today's Webtoon

For someone that likes to read webtoons, this series was so nice to watch. It gives us a window to how webtoon creation and publication works. I like the characters: artists and the PDs. Their stories ranged from sweet to sad, but it was great to see the all reached their own happiness. Even though this series is not a romantic drama, it did have its romantic touches that made it sweeter. It leaves this subplot in the opening as they accomplish their dream as a team and move on to the next collective dream. I wonder what will happen with Oh Ma Eum's relationship with Seok Ji Hyung and Jun Yeong. But even though it leaves that question open, it doesn't leave me disappointed or wanting to know what happens. I think that it just reminds us that life continues even after one chapter of our lives ends and things will happen at their own sweet time, there is no need to force things.

Work drama that will keep you smiling and cheering for the characters. Really loved it.
