Oh! It looks like Eunwoo's online today, it must be very late in Korea right now. I wonder why he isn't sleeping?

Transcript of online conversation
SongEunwoo: Hello Y/N~^^
Y/N: Hello Eunwoo~ Are you not tired?
SongEunwoo: Nope. I am very excited to meet you very soon! :)
Y/N: Haha, is that really why you cannot sleep?
SongEunwoo: Yes! Haha, I know it seems a bit strange.. I'm sorry.
Y/N: You don't have to apologise :) I can't wait to meet you too!
But you should get some rest now.
SongEunwoo: Okay! I will speak to you tomorrow^^ Goodnight.
Y/N: Goodnight Eunwoo-ah :)

The next morning.
I'm still so sleepy, but I have to start packing. I knew I should've started packing a few days ago, now I have to rush.
Alright, I need my list of essentials I need to bring.

Few hours later...
Right, almost done and it's already getting so dark. I'm so tired.
I've been so busy I completely forgot to message Eunwoo.

I hope I could finish this by tomorrow...

A whole day has past, I've had something to eat and now it's time for bed, finally. I managed to get everything done whilst I was still slightly energised after eating.
I just need to pack my carrier bag, but I can do that tomorrow, plus I still need to buy a couple of things to bring with me on the plane.

The next day.
Time to do some last minute shopping!
I'm so excited to flight out tomorrow. I can't believe I'm finally going to Korea! It'll be such a good experience, despite the fact that I'll be in school for most of it, I think it'll be fun. Meeting new people, learning new things, and finally meeting Eunwoo!
I think he's so lovely, we've been online chatting for almost a year now. Incase you're wondering, we didn't meet on a dating website. We actually met on the school website, the school that I'll be attending soon. He was the top student and I thought I could reach him for help on the Korean language and culture. Ever since, we've been talking 24/7. He's a very solitary type of person, he would rarely speak about his life when I asked questions, he seemed to be more interested in mine.

Couple of hours later...
I'm finally done with shopping, time to go home, pack my carrier and then rest. I need to mentally and physically prepare myself for tomorrow.

A lot of people might think, "It's not that serious."
I rarely travel. So it's kind of a big deal on my behalf. Plus, I'll be staying in Korea for almost a year! Now that's a long time...
I mean, I won't be able to see my family and friends. I could always contact them but it'll be difficult due to time differences.
I guess I'll just have to manage.

Anyway, time to sleep.

The next morning.
Big day ahead! So, my flight's in the evening, which means I'll be arriving in Korea in the morning, which is perfect, but I'll be tired and I won't have the energy to tour the area. By the way, I'm staying in Seoul.

Few hours pass, at the airport.
It's almost time for my flight. I don't really know how I feel right now, I'm excited but nervous. I'm more excited about meeting Eunwoo... I'm going to be living with him...

On the plane to Korea, I kept thinking about living with Eunwoo. I wonder what he's going to be like... Will he be isolating himself? Is he going to be shy? Maybe he'll open up... I guess I'll just have to see when I get there.
Luckily I'll be picked up from the airport, so that way I won't get lost on my way to Eunwoo's place. Luckily Eunwoo could drive.

Long flight hours later
I felt like I was on that plane for days. I need fresh air and coming out of that plane and stepping on the grounds of Korea was just perfect.
Now it's time to play the waiting game.
I wonder if he knows what time I'm arriving 'cause I'm sure I've told him a few times already.

"Excuse me, are you Y/N?" A soft but deep voice said, as I turned around to see who it was.

"Are you Eunwoo?" I asked timidly.

"Uh, yeah..." He replied back, rubbing the back of his neck and smiling cheekily.

"Erm, you look a little different on your profile picture..." I was questioning his ways. Is this really him or am I being pranked right now?
I looked down on my phone to see Eunwoo's profile picture... And-

"Ya! Rowoon-ah!" Came a booming voice from across the busy airport

I looked to the distance and just like that, I instantly recognised his face.
THAT was Eunwoo, approaching with such sass. But who was this other guy?
