"Eh, what are you clowns doing?" Min Yoongi asked. On the way to the kitchen for some water, he spied the maknae line crowding around J-Hope. 

"Yoongi hyung!" Taehyung motioned for him to come over. "Check out Jimin's girlfriend," he wiggled his eyebrows suggestively at Jimin who was in the process of turning beet red.

"Jimin-ssi! You have a girlfriend?" Yoongi's eyes widened and he broke out into his signature gummy smile. "I'm proud of you, my man!"

J-Hope shoved the laptop in Yoongi's face, "Look at her, hyung!" He shrieked. Jimin wanted to vanish. Maybe telling them this early in the game was a bad idea. 

"Aish! She's not my girlfriend. She's just some girl I accidentally met at the steakhouse." Jimin replied, swatting away Jungkook. The maknae was trying to grab the laptop away from Yoongi.

"Some girl," Taehyung scoffed. He rushed to Sinsadong as soon as Jimin called. His friend rarely got excited over things outside of BTS and when Jimin said he needed help winning over some girl, Taehyung was more than willing.

"Soo Yun Hae. Vice President for Brand Marketing and Reputational Management. Woah! Fancy. She looks too young to be VP though." Yoongi remarked as he read Yun Hae's bio out loud. 

"Wait, how did you clowns know where she works? This is creepy. Are you stalking her Jimin-ah?!" He demanded.

Jimin cowered, "Aniyo!" He whined. "Taemin and I got her name at the restaurant and we just Googled her, hyung."

J-Hope guffawed and slapped Jimin's back, "He's no stalker but he followed her around Sinsadong and conspired with Taehyung and one of the staff to give her VIP tickets to our concert."

Min Yoongi shook his head in disgust, "Still jamless, I see." He looked at Jimin who was poring over the girl's photo and bio like his life depended on it. "Hey, Jimin! Do you expect her to magically pop out of the screen because that's not sexy. That's scary."

Jimin threw his hands in frustration, grabbed a pillow that was lying at his feet and threw it at Yoongi. "I also bought her a bunch of make-up," he said quietly.

"WHAAAAT????" Jungkook laughed. "Jimin hyung, big spender, wowing the ladies with his cash! Kaching, kaching!"

"I didn't know what to do, okay? And besides, she bought Taemin and I drinks. Good quality scotch," Jimin explained. "I had to return the favor."

"AND HE WANTS TO SEE HER AGAIN!!!" Taehyung added triumphantly.

"Stop pouting," said Yoongi. "I hope it works out, pabo" he said sincerely. Jimin beamed, his eyes disappearing into slits. "Thanks, hyung!"

Min Yoongi chuckled as he left J-Hope and the maknae line to carry on with their business of stalking the poor girl

Min Yoongi chuckled as he left J-Hope and the maknae line to carry on with their business of stalking the poor girl. He glanced back at Jimin before entering his room and smiled. It was good to see Jimin happy and pre-occupied.

Whoever this girl was, she had taken Jimin's mind off watching video after video of their concerts and critiquing his performance. Better to have him stalk her than to watch Jimin practice himself to exhaustion.

No one was harder on Jimin than Jimin himself. He was one of the best performers and the most hardworking but he suffered from such low self-esteem and crippling self-doubt that he couldn't see how far he's gone and how important he was to the group. Min Yoongi hoped this was the breakthrough they were all praying for Jimin.

Can't wait to meet you, Soo Yun Hae.
