Dear Ji-eun (IU X Fem.Reader)

Losing her father to a 6 years sentence in prison, having to move away from an outgoing city like Busan, teeming with people and much more dashes into Y/n's life, until she is doomed to shift to an old-fashioned and ancient village, miles away from where she was supposed to continue her life...not by distance, but by aspirations.

Though, the village holds a glorious story of its origin and it's preeminent past, however, that's not an inch near elation for Y/N.

When she thinks that her life couldn't get worse, the cold-hearted spoilsport, lee Ji-eun steps in. Being raised up in a traditional and primitive village, she's the polar opposite of what you call 'The kids of today's generation'.

She's someone who ploughs the land, hours after hours, someone who spends almost half of her day in the forest, collecting wood and other essential items for livestock and someone who doesn't quite welcome Y/N into her 'personal' bubble.

But, what will happen, when Y/N digs deeper into Ji-eun's life and her past? Will Ji-eun's perspective towards Y/n finally change ? Will her heart finally soften for Y/n and this unexplained hate will finally change to love?

the old-fashioned buzz-kill might just be someone that Y/N will embrace and cherish all her life, only if Ji-eun doesn't place her heart, in a box of stone preventing Y/N from entering it, just like she's always done for any soul.

"Have you ever wondered what a soulmate is..?"

"It's like the conspicous moon standing out, amidst the innumerable stars...The one in a million.."

This is a story inspired from the songs contained in IU's palette Studio Album, there might be certain references in random parts of the story. I've also added songs from the Album and outside that fit in the theme and will aid in a better reading experience. This is a work of my own creativity.
