TOUR

1. Preparations

The 30-day, 6 country tour would take them to Tokyo, Paris, Sydney, London, Las Vegas and back to Seoul for the Finale just before Christmas. Each tour stop would include 3 concerts and a media tour.

Joscelin and Stephen would join The Boys in London, it was somewhere Joscelin had always wanted to visit.

After London was a three show stop in Las Vegas with a return to Seoul for the finale series. For Joscelin the thought of London was exciting, but even more so was the Las Vegas stop, because Pandy was going to join them there.

She knew it was going to be a wonderful adventure.

They had been through so much in the past year, all nine of them. As much as she loved the compound that had become her home three years ago, she was looking forward to getting back out into the world a little bit, but it would not be without challenges.

Jeon Joscelin Evans, also known as Joscelin Evans Saunders, was 59 years old.
For the past three years she had served as personal assistant to the K-pop group Bangtan Sonyeondan- at least that was the official story. She WAS on the payroll of Hybe, she DID function as a personal assistant to the seven young men. She and her husband Dr. Stephen Saunders lived in a small house on the secluded compound belonging to the group which was about 45 miles from Seoul. Stephen was also employed by Hybe as a physician, or medica, to the group. He was available to them 24/7 when they were in residence in Korea, and sometimes would travel with them- or he would be.

The Boys had not been out on tour for almost 2 years. There had been a hiatus where the members focused on individual work goals, though they all still put in time for media projects related to BTS. They were back together now for a short tour, one which may be their last for a few more years as their eldest member Kim Seokjin had reached the age of 30 and would likely be required to step out of the group for his mandatory military stint. The Korean government, having been petitioned by the K-Pop industry, was in the process of reviewing a request that entertainers be able to either put off, or be excused altogether from the mandatory two-year stint.

She was trying not to let the thought of what it would be like for Jin to be away for 2 years make itself at home in her mind.

Across the field from Small house, Kim Seokjin was standing at the edge of the stream that crossed the property with his fly rod. Stephen was sitting nearby on a rustic bench.

"I've got a bad feeling about this Hyung." Said Stephen
"Define bad?"
"I wish I could."

"Okay, are we talking post-apocalyptic, dead walking the earth bad or Jimin giving himself whiplash tossing his hair bad?"

"Less zombies, more than sparkle pony whiplash."

Stephen Saunders MD was 61 years old. He had come to Korea just over two years ago, his adventurous nature leading him to seek new experiences- not to mention his growing disdain for the American medical system and its relentless march to prize profit over patient care. He had secured a position in the emergency room of a small private hospital, which is where he had met Joscelin, to whom he'd been married almost 2 months.

"That's not very helpful doc. Have you talked to any of our brothers about it? Or was I first on your list?"

"Oh, please Jin, you know you're my favorite." Stephen said sardonically "You've got a point though; Tae is probably a good one to start with. "
"Then Jimin." suggested Jin.

"Yeah." he stood. Jin was pulling in his line to cast again. "Uh, did you want a hint?" he had learned that unless it's an emergency that it's simply good manners to ask before using his power. Jin looked up to see the position of the sun in the sky, sighed, and nodded.
