The last guests Lillian expected to find staying at the vacation home she managed were the boys of her favorite Korean pop group, Super Junior. She had never expected to be able to meet them, and now she had the chance to not only do that, but to tell them how much they meant to her. After their short stay in California, a few of the boys come to mean more to Lillian then she could have ever imagined. *The formatting in this story will change periodically. I wanted some of the conversations to have a different feel to them so I wrote them slightly differently. Also please assume most of the conversation is in Korean. I am learning but not quite good enough to add more Hangul to the story. Thanks!*
