America on route

The Lee Family; Logan , Seol , Jamie and Ara  were traveling first class on their trip to South Korea.

After much persuasion , Logan had no choice but to take his niece and nephew along with his sister back to the country where the final battle between them and the Hera residents would occur. He was adamant on getting justice for Suryeon but punishing Joo Dan Tae for his crimes.

Seol kept fidgeting with her fingers. She had been determined to finally return back home but now they were on route she kept  thinking of her past - how Mr. Joo and Ms Cheon tortured her and the Hera kids bullying her and almost leaving her for dead.

While she had forgiven Seokhoon the truth of the matter was that those incidents couldn't be forgotten despite how much she tried to forget. The trauma Hera Palace had inflicted on her wasn't one to just discard away on top of that her mother had been murdered there too.

"Are you ok Anna ?"

"I'm fine Logan."

"Are you really sure?" He asked her with a concerned look on his face. If there was one thing his sister  inherited from Suryeon besides looks - it was the fact she bottled things up keeping them to herself . Suryeon had no one in all these years to express herself to but he wasn't going to let Anna do the same either.

Seol didn't bother refuting - her brother always saw right through her, "I'm nervous Logan."

"That's understandable." He smiled at her trying to reassure her , " and it's ok to feel that Anna it doesn't make you any less stronger than you are."

She nodded taking some peace from his words. She looked at the window ;  she was going to see Rowoon, Rona and Seokhoon again. That was the only part  good part of she was thrilled about  and punishing Joo Dan Tae the man who murdered both her father and mother.

"Uncle Logan!" Ara said from the opposite seat , "once we get to Korea can we search through entertainment agencies."

"Why?"

"I want to become a kpop idol." The Lee girl said with a proud eager look on her face.

"I thought you wanted to be an actress." Seol asked curious about Ara's sudden change in career path.

Ara had a boastful smile on her face , "Yes. But being a kpop idol seems much more fun. Don't I look idol material?"

"Who would want to debut you in a group." Jamie said watching a tutorial video on speaking Korean. While was affluent in various other languages Korean wasn't his strong suit at her.

Ara turned to glare at her brother offendly ,"Yah!"

"Guys -" Seol found herself in the middle as always trying to soothe them before conflict escalated.

Logan sighed - their presence made him feel like an old man not that he minded it.  It was seeing them act like this that reminded him they were just still kids at the end of the day.

South Korea

Seokhoon was the most unhappy besides his sister at the commencement of their father's engagement. 

His father was married to their Biological mother whom neither he nor Seokyung had ever met or seen pictures of her , then he married their mom and now he was marrying Ms Cheon ?

This was his father's third marriage and though he wasn't sure about his biological mother he knew his father got married for personal benefit and not love. The question was what was he getting by marrying Ms Cheon?
