After hearing that the members of BTS, especially Jungkook, disliked Hari, Sunghoon wanted to talk to them.

Jin and Jungkook stood around a table on the side of the dance floor. There was a third person with them, whom I hoped was Jimin because he had been the easiest to approach. To my dismay, it was RM. I sighed, preparing to meet yet another person who would get weirded out by me.

We approached them, but right before they noticed us, Sunghoon pulled me aside.

"Wait... what do we say to them? I feel like I'm going to embarrass myself," he said, starstruck by the older idols.

"Just ask for an autograph," I teased him.

He gave me an annoyed look.

"They know me... But we are not so close that I could walk up to them like this."

"Why not? Aren't they from the same company?"

"Yes, technically. But... it's like they are on another level... I started to dream of becoming an idol after going to their concert."

"They don't care about that. Besides, it doesn't matter if you embarrass yourself. They will probably start to dislike you anyway because you hang out with me."

Sunghoon furrowed his brow.

"You said they disliked Hari, not you."

"They assume we are the same."

He eyed the BTS members.

"All the more reason to talk to them."

Determined, he marched to their table, but all courage drained out of him once the older boys greeted him. In his black and white suit, Sunghoon resembled an awkward penguin who bowed his head too low. Sunghoon really honored the BTS members like they were an inferior species.

"What's up, Sunghoon?" RM asked, sipping a drink.

Sunghoon glanced at me, then placed his crossed hands on the table like a professional interviewer.

"What do you know about Hari, Lee Know's sister?"

Jungkook snorted, letting his gaze glide over the celebrating crowd. He looked for someone else to hang out with, an excuse to leave.

RM didn't seem annoyed by our question. He shook his head, probably thinking of some past occurrence with Hari.

"Let me just say. Don't get involved. I really don't recommend it."

Sunghoon pulled me closer to the table.

"We are trying to expose her for a crime. If you have anything that could help us..."

"Good luck with that," Jungkook said before Sunghoon could finish. "The Police have already proven that all our evidence is bullshit. So, I don't think you have any use of our information."

Sunghoon blinked, surprised.

"So, you know something."

RM put an arm on Jungkook's shoulder to calm him down.

"She is a weird person. I remember she used to come to see Minho at our concerts. They let her backstage sometimes. She had an obsessive kind of crush on Jungkook."

Jin placed his glass on the table.

"What do you mean had?" He looked at Jungkook. "Doesn't she still follow you around?"

"Sometimes," Jungkook admitted.

"She always finds out his phone number, no matter how often he changes it," Jin explained.
