Choon Hee P.O.V
Today is March 17, it's my birthday! Yay, I'm 17 years old now. All of my family is here, well except my brother he is away on a business trip, but other than that I have every gift I could ever want. My family all the way from South Korea even came! I haven't seen some of them in forever. Every body said nice things about me and told me some of my childhood. Well, I guess it's my turn to talk to the crowd that came.
"Hey, everybody! I would like to take this time to thank all my family that came out to my birthday party and help me celebrate it. I love you all."
Because I have family who don't understand English I have to say it in Korean too.
"Anneyseo! naneun-i sigan-eul nae saeng-il patie nawassdeon modeun gajog-ege giwonhago chughahadolog dowajugo sipda. naneun neoleul modu saranghae!"
Everybody loves it when I talk in Korean, because when I first started to it I wasn't very good. Now I'm almost fluent in Korean. My moms side of the family mostly helped me speaking it. Well, the party ended and my parents wanted to speak with me. They both sat in the back room waiting for me to come in an join them.
Mom: Your father and I have something to tell you. I know your not gonna like it, but it's the best thing we could have done for you.
Choon Hee: Which is?
Both Parents: We both finally decided when you are going to marry Kim Taehyung!
Choon Hee: What?! No, that wasn't the deal! We all came to agreement that I would marry him only if I got to know him a bit more. No, I'm not going to marry somebody I don't know nothing about!
Both of my parents were shocked by what I had just said but it's the truth. When mother finally told me about the arrange marriage she gave me a choice. It was to either find love before I turned 17, or i have to marry Kim Taehyung. I had chosen to find love before 17, but it didn't happen because I was always busy with school and plus mother sent me to a boarding school for only girls. I guess she got what her and father always wanted. For me to marry the guy of there dreams.
Father: Isn't this what your choices were though? Shouldn't you be happy Choon.
Choon Hee: Yes, I know it was one of my choices but please don't make me marry him. I know what he's like father. He is a little brat who likes to play with girls hearts and play with them like there some kind of toy! No, I won't marry him!
Mother: Already too late. His mother and I have already made arrangements for the wedding to be in 2 weeks tops. So, I don't want to be hearing any complaining about your fiance! Araso!
Choon Hee: Fine! Hey, mother can I ask you a question?
Mother: Sure, anything.
Choon Hee: Would it be possible like when we get married I can get a divorce right away?
Mother: CHOON HEE!! Don't be asking those ridiculous questions. No, you can't get a divorce for about 7 years.
Choon Hee: Alright.
So just as imagined I can't go out and have fun with my friends. I can't be going on blind dates anymore. I can't do anything anymore. Mother is just so persistent with everything and anything. I wish I was a independent women, but sadly I'm not.
Ye Seul: Noona! Noona! (Will you be getting married to that guy you don't like?) neoneun silh-eohaneun geu namjawa gyeolhon halgeoya?
I turned around to see little Ye Seul walking out of her bedroom an asking me that question. It's a good thing she only knows Korean, because she would be telling all my secrets to Father.
Choon Hee: (No, Why do you ask little sister?) Ani, wae yeodongsaeng hante mul-eo boni
Ye Seul: (Mother had told me the other night when me and her were planning your party that you were getting married to Kim Taehyung.) jinan bam-e dangsingwa dangsin-i patileul gyehoeghaess-eul ttae eomeoniga Kim taehyung-gwa gyeolhonhagileul eomeoniege malhaessseubnida.
Choon Hee: (Well, since she already said it then I can't lie. Yes, I'll be married to Kim Taehyung in about 2 Weeks. So my name will be Kim Choon Hee.) geulsse, geunyeoga imi malhan ihulo naneun geojismal-eul hal su eobsda. ye, jeoneun yag 2 ju an-e Kim taehyung-gwa gyeolhon hal geos-ibnida. nae ileum-eun Kim Choon Hee.
Ye Seul: (Okay. I love you sister!) joh-a, neo eonni saranghae.
Walking up to my bedroom I kept thing to myself if I was really ready for marriage. I mean I'm only 17 years old there can't be anything wrong with it. Mother did it when she was only 16, younger than me of course. Can I do it? Can I really make a good wife/mother? I'm not planning on having any kids, but I'm just saying. Its hard being the daughter of a Famous CEO and Chaebol. They expect so much of you and I don't like it. I wish I was normal. I wish I had normal parents, and normal siblings. No, I just had to be born into a rich family and have to be forced to marry someone I don't even love. One day, I'll get to have the chance to have a normal life!
Well, it's 12 AM and I'm still up. I can't go to sleep. Ugh, since I'm bored I'll just message my "Future Husband."
CH: Hey!
V: Hello Choon Hee!
CH: What are you doing?
V: Right now, with Jin Hyung, and Suga Hyung just cruising around.
CH: Um, did you hear anything about us from your parents?
V: What do you mean by 'Us'? No, should I have heard something from them important?
CH: Yes, 'Us'! Your mother didn't tell you at all? About our marriage?? We are getting married in 2 weeks!
V: What?! No, it can't be. I'm already seeing someone right now. Plus, I wouldn't want to marry the daughter of a Chaebol or a Company Enemies daughter!
CH: Why wouldn't you want to marry the daughter of a Chaebol when you just broke up with another girl of a millionaire? I'm more rich then her and nvm. Well, goodnight!
V: Wait, how do you know about that? I told her to keep it a secret and to not tell anybody.
CH: Would it really matter on how I found out? It wouldn't matter you still wouldn't believe me. Good Night KIM TAEHYUNG!So I finally got the truth out of him. He did break up with her, and she thought she could lie to me. Now, that I got my answer I'm gonna sleep happily tonight!

This was my first time writing a book about this stuff. I just got my ideas from KDramas that I watch so much. I love everything Korean. So I thought I would write a book based on what I know. Tell me what you thought about it tho.
