I looked down at my passport. I feel so happy, it was my first time going to Korea. A place I have always dream about going to when I grow up. I bided my parent goodbye and boarded my plane. Partially I slept the whole ride. When I woke up the plane were already landing. I looked outside excitingly to see the appearance of South Korea, it's better than I expected it to be. I smile and got out of the plane gratefully. I dragged my suitcase into a cab and tell them the location of the place I'm staying at. When we got there he dropped my off and I pay him the money, saying my thanks.

I went to the front desk, "Annyeong haseyo. My name is Lee Songji, I'm here for my reservation room." I said to the clerk at the front desk.

"Wait, let me check." She replied back and started typing and scanning the computer. "Ok Ms. Lee, your room is R201. Please have a nice time here." She handed me my card (the key), "thanks." I walked to my room, taking the elevator.

After unpacking my stuff from my suitcase, puting it on the top of my bed. In a messy pile, I sorted out my clothes and hang it on the closet. Then I put my drawing books and thing including my purse onto the self at the left corner of the room, which is next to my bed.

After that I left with my purse and locked the door. I put my keys into my purse and takes the elevator back to the lobby again.

"Miss, do you have a map of South Korea tour, that I can use." I asked the same clerk again at the desk and she handed me a map.

I thanks her again and left for my sightseeing of South Korea. I look at the sky, it's blue and the sun is out, what a nice weather today.

I waited for the bus at the bus station, about 5 minutes later, the bus arrive and I boarded it. I look at the passing scene, 'so beautiful.' My eyes sparkle of excitement.

I stop at a market place, and walk around, tasting the food and looking at the stuff they have there. When I came across a ring store that catches my eyes. In there were this sightly plain but beautiful silver/gold ring, with something engraved on the top of the ring. It said, 'Kim Seok Jin.' And have a white lily on the side of the of the of those letters.

"Mr, I wants to buy this. How much is it?"

I handed the ring to the store owner and he give me a smile.

"Young lady, you have good eyes. This kind of ring is hard to come by, it would change a young lady, like you, fates."
The men complemented and I nod like I was listening to the whole tale. "I'll sell it to you for 2000 won."

"I'll take it then." I happily exclaim and plaid him the money. He put the ring in a blue florist box and give it to me.

I left the store with a smile on my face, and continue with my sight seeing.

~Jin POV~

"Eomma! Appa! Mainhe, but I lost it." I panicked.

I was trying to find it, so I can propose to my girlfriend, that I've been dating for years. This ring, which have the engrave of my name in it and a lily next to it, was a wedding ring that our family and ancestor has been doing for years.

The owner if this ring would have their name engrave on it, and when they find someone that they wanted to be with, then they give this ring to her. But the only problem is that if it is in a lady not related to the family hand, then neither can the owner take it back or refuse to marry her.

She is now legally the wife of that person, no matter what. Even if it by accident that she pick it up or that the owner proposed to her.

Now my problem is that I lost it!

"You lost what?" My brother walked into the room, ruffling his hair. I shot him a glare and then looked back at my eomma and appa. "I lost the ring."

"What?!" My eomma unbelievable screamed. "You lost it! What are you going to do now!? You can't get marry without it, or propose to Minju without it either. What are we going to do?" She fanned herself with her hand trying to not faint at the news that one son of hers had lost his marriage ring.

"I won't have any grandchildren now. Ah!! I want a grandchildren, my hope was high on you Seok. Your brother is unreliable on that right now. I'll die before seeing my grandchildren."

She puts her hand on her face as she protest angrily about the lost wedding ring.

"Kkul calm down." My appa hold my eomma shoulder and tried to calm her down or she might have a heart attack with all the worries.

"How am I supposed to calm down! When one of my son just lost the wedding ring!?" She head her head and crawl into the corner of the coach. Taking huge breath.

"Kkul, we can have our workers (maid and butler) go search for the rings and including us and this sons of ours." Appa slowly pointed out the solution. Then turn to look at me "But Jin, you can't do anything if this ring is in a lady possession. You'll have to marry her no matter what she look like, even if she's a complete strange. You got it."

I slowly nod, showing him that I got it and prying in my head that the ring wouldn't be in someone possession.
Then we left for the search.
