Exchange Student: A Dream High Story

New Student

-Note, Sorry if this chapter is very long, this was one of my first Kpop stories I written so I didn't know much I needed to write. I promise the newer ones won't be this long.

It was now nighttime, and all the trainees had to wrap of their work and prepare to head home. Everybody was excited about their newest members especially the trainees. Jungkook already being excited immediately went home to tell the entire world and it was just Nayeon by herself walking towards her house.

She has been mildly impressive at the boy's vocals him sounding miles better than whatever Jungkook sings no offense of course lol she just has a hard time taking him seriously when he wheezes like a dying giraffe.

She just had to tell someone about dialing her phone she called her best friend from school.

"Sooyoung-ah you wouldn't believe what just happened today we just got another trainee!!" She spoke on her phone.

"Jinja! Another trainee who?!"

"You're about to be surprised he's an oversees idol from America he sang a song from Taeyang oppa."

"Jinja!! NOW YOU REALLY HAVE TO TELL ME!!" Sooyoung yelled out.

"His name is Eric Park and he looks really cute. He's so shy when we were there, he reminded me of Jungkook. You should visit the agency one of these days. I get lonely without you by my side."

"You sound like a baby unnie... I'll check it out, but only because I'm your friend and nothing else" Sooyoung sighed.

"DEAL!!" Nayeon happily screamed before hanging up the phone.

"This girl I swear..." Sooyoung sighed.

The girl laid there on her bed already in pajamas.

"I guess it's time to sleep the new semester about to start next week who knows what will happen, but I get the feeling things will be interesting" Sooyoung yawned before drifting asleep.

The week has passed, and Eric and his family was gradually adjusting to life in Seoul. They were some positives, the infrastructure here is miles ahead than back home boasting an array of metro and speed trains that hover the city. The people were more respectful albeit harder to approach to. Once you greet them courteously, they are more than happy to engage to tell you about their days.

Of course, there were obvious cultural differences for the fact that people are less open to talk in public. Being busy people, they move from one destination to another only saying occasional hellos and bye byes. Manners were very important, and people are more receptive to rudeness, he had to teach the twins to be respectful and not ask too many questions.

Society itself is generally more conversative than the west and generally have no interest in learning other cultures causing the whole "ignorance" problem when explaining about America. He had to explain in detail since they had misconceptions about the Land of Stars and Stripes. He realized how much harder Jiwon and kids had when speaking. It wasn't their fault Korean isn't their first language he told them to start speaking because they'll have to speak Korean in school.

Speaking of school, it was pain in the ass to get through the enrollment process. Since he was a foreigner, they place him under the "exchange student" program meaning in he would have to take freshman level courses for "required" courses such as Korean course. The family spent the entire week trying to enroll all the kids in.

After a long process he finally enrolled at Seoul School for Performing Arts or SOPA High school, a school that offer music related courses perfect for an aspiring trainee like himself. He was now officially a Korean exchange student from America.
