Follow Park Jinjoo as she moves to Korea as a live-in maid for Wanna One. Only problem is that she's forgotten how to speak Korean!
Could possibly include a jealous Daehwi and flirtatious friend ;)
I quickly got out of the taxi, not wanting to embarrass myself any further. After paying the driver as fast as I could, I hurried towards what looked like a two-story house. After calming down and smoothing out imaginary wrinkles on my sweatshirt, I rang the doorbell.
After a few seconds of silence, I heard somebody running down the stairs. The door opened to reveal a cute boy in glasses.

He looked at me, surprised, before inviting me into the house.
"아-안녕! 음, 누구세요?"
I looked at him with an awkward smile on my face. What is he saying? I cleared my throat.
"Do you know how to speak English?"
"Uh, yeah, I do."
I sighed in relief.
"Wow, thank goodness. Sorry, I don't know how to speak Korean so..."
"Ah, I see..."
Why is our conversation so awkward?
"Anyways, I'm your live-in maid. For your band, Wanna One. My mom told me to go to this address so I'm not su-"
"야! 대휘! 누구야?"
A male voice shouted from upstairs. The boy in front of me looked up. Hmm, so his name is Daehwi. He shouted back.
"라이브 메이드있니!"
"뭐?"
"정말이다!"
They continued to converse back and forth before the person came down. He gaped at me on the way down the stair while I gave him a small bow and smile.
He started talking in Korean to me and I nodded my head along as if I understood while I glanced at Daehwi. There was a silence as he waited for my respond to whatever he had just said. I looked at Daehwi again, sending him SOS signals with my eyes.
He finally got it as he turned to the other boy and started explaining my situation (at least that's what I think he was saying). The boy looked at me flabbergasted, before exclaiming something else to Daehwi. The boy still looked confused, but he shouted out some names, most likely telling the other members to come out.
There's probably around 7 members. Taking care of them shouldn't be that hard.
Little did I know that I was way off. 4 people off. As they started gathering around me, I felt like a zoo animal on display. However, the stream of members didn't seem to end. When they were all here, I mentally counted the number of people. 11?! I'm practically taking care of 3 families!
I tuned back into reality as they did a greeting (?). I wasn't sure since I didn't listen to K-Pop. They introduced themselves while I mentally groaned. How am I gonna memorize all these names?
