"Hello?" a woman called, waving her hand in front of Jungkook's face. 

"W-what? Who are y-you?" he said, waking up startled. 

"I am Lee Gyeong. I own this house," she said, brushing Jungkook's hair out of his eyes and checking for cuts. The woman's profile almost exactly matched that of the house's. She was stout with curly gray hair which was styled in a bob cut. She wore a blue and white striped dress with buttons leading up to the collar. Over the skirt of her dress she wore a frilly apron which almost reached her feet. She had a kind smile and too many wrinkles to count, but she was sweet and her eyes crinkled when she laughed. 

"We can get out, my girlfriend here, she-" Jungkook began explaining but the old woman hushed him.

"No need, my dear. You may stay here as long as you," She beckoned to Seong-Hun. "and her, need to. I don't mind the company. In fact, I'm quite lonely alone here," She smiled and stood up. "And, would you tell me your names?" 

"I'm Jeon Jungkook, and this here is Queen Seong-Hun," he said. The woman stifled a screech. 

"The Queen Seong-Hun?" she asked, shocked. 

"Yeah," The woman curtsied. 

"Your Majesty," she said. Jungkook giggled. 

"She's not awake yet," he said, rubbing her shoulder. Seong-Hun woke up, rubbing her eyes. 

"W-who's this, Jungkook?" she asked as her vision focused on the plump woman who very much resembled a potato with gray hair and clothes. 

"Your Majesty," Lee Gyeong repeated, winking at Jungkook. Seong-Hun glared at Jungkook.

"I told you not to tell anyone!" she exclaimed, lightly slapping Jungkook's elbow.

"I'm sorry! Geez!" he yelled, laughing as he dodged Seong-Hun's slaps.

"Calm down, you two," The woman's voice was very calming. They both sat down on the couch, Seong-Hun leaning into Jungkook. Suddenly, there was a violent series of knocks on the door. Jungkook was worried the door would fall over. "Coming!" the woman called.

"Open up!" a gruff voice said. Beom-Seok was back. Lee Gyeong hurried over to the door and her eyes opened widely with shock when she saw who it was.

"Oh my, Beom-Seok, what are you doing here?" Beom-Seok barged through the door, shoving Lee Gyeong to one wall and walking in.
