Summer of 2003, Kimdok Press, Seoul Korea 9:00 AM
"The printers aren't working Marg! What the hell are we gonna do?" the short and ambitious intern yelled out to her manager. Margot Kang, 23-years-old, fresh out of college. She had just booked the role as the publicist manager at Kimdok Press, due to the surprising amount of experience on her resume. Her supervisor, Taehyung Kim, shouted from a distance, "Call Yoongi immediately! Tell him to put in an urgent order!" as Margot began to frantically walk back to her office.
Taehyung had offered her the position the minute he saw her extensive portfolio. Being 28-years-old, he knew the struggle of trying to find a job fresh out of college, so when he saw her application, he offered the position before even meeting her. After the two met, they would pass by each other every once in a while, giving eachother a nod, a smile. Taehyung preferred to keep to himself, so the two never shared long conversations. A few Hi, how are you's and sometimes a surprise coffee. That was the extent of their relationship.
As Margot fled into her room, she grabbed the telephone at her desk and picked it up. She began to dial numbers, wiping the sweat from her forehead as she waited anxiously for an answer. The majority of her staff filed in, corning the room and huddling together. She said, "Yes, this is Margot Kang! I'm from Kimdok Press." as everyone listened in on her telephone conversation. Leaning in, the crowd waited with anticipation, biting their nails and bug-eyed. Taehyung gave the crowd a stern SHHH as they immediately followed in line. They got quiet and listened in...
Margot: Yes... I understand, and I apologize, as our printers were momentarily down, but I can assure you this would never happen again. Yes, Mr. Jeong... I understand. Of course, thank you...
Margot put the phone down and looked down, frowning. The group of employees became impatient and nervous, realizing that the situation was a flop. Her staff, alongside Taehyung all grew pale as Margot continued to sulk.
"I'm sorry..." Margot said as everyone began to slouch and become depressed with the news. "I'm sorry that... you're ALL GOING TO BE WORKING extra hard the next two months BECAUSE WE MADE THE CUT!" Margot exclaimed as the entirety of the work staff cheered, and started woo-ing. Taehyung smiled, and nodded his head. He looked to Margot who then gave him a solid two thumbs up, smiling her ear-to-ear smile.
Yuta's House, Seoul Korea 9:10 AM
Somewhere in a garage, a band of three people total goofed off, chatting amongst themselves. Red-haired 24-year-old Lulu Park munched on a pack of salted vinegar chips, reading her newsfeed. Catering to her, 26-year-old Yuta Nakamoto began adjusting his drumset. He had long, dark brown hair that covered the corners of his face, masking his emotions. He had a butterfly tattoo, which is why his favorite outfit was a cropped top.
"When's Min getting here?" Yuta asked the girl drenched in tattoos. She stopped mid-chew, right before placing another chip in her mouth and looked him in the eyes as if he asked the most ignorant question known to mankind. "Do I look like his mother? I don't know but tell you better dial him again and tell him to hurry the fuck up because we don't have all damn day to be practicing." Lulu said annoyed.
