"Aw, Joon-Pyo, you look so handsome in that uniform~!" Joon-Pyo's father gushed at sight of his son finally wearing 'something decent for once instead of trying to look like some kind of commoner' as he phrased it.
"Dad, I look ridiculous, and you know I hate to not wear hats." Goo Joon-Pyo complained as he ran a hand through his curly hair. It had always been a pain to manage, so hats made it easier to handle. Luckily, his sister had been nice and fixed it up for him to look acceptable for school. His father, on the other hand, also looked pretty weird. He wore a black suit and a pair of dark sunglasses in order to fit the 'chauffeur look'.
'What kind of man would do this to his own child?' Joon-Pyo thought miserably to himself as he sank into his chair.
"Cheer up, buddy!" Ji-Hoo laughed from the backseat with Yi-Jung and Woo-Bin as he laid a hand on his best friend's shoulder, "At least we're riding together!"

"Oh, there's the school!" Yi-Jung announced, pointing at the school that was slowly growing bigger as they neared it.
"Why are you so amazed?" Woo-Bin questioned, not as impressed, "We've been here before."
"Yeah, but it somehow seems different now that we're not robbing them."
"Shush! Not everyone knows that!" The fact that they were being sent to this school instead of being punished was miraculous, but maybe this was the punishment?


A variety of shiny, new cars lined up at the front of the school with chauffeurs exiting out of the vehicle to open the doors for the young students who wouldn't even glance upon the school with any kind of awe. They all really were used to this.

Then, a used, grey minivan would skid to a halt in front of the school, making the passengers lurch forward in surprise. As they would attempt to exit, the driver said, "Stop! Please wait for me, sirs."
Goo Joon-Pyo covered his face in embarrassment as his friends couldn't stop themselves from cracking by.

"Right this way, "Goo Joon-Pyo's father said as he opened both doors while trying to look professional at the same time. The backseat passengers snickered but said their 'thank you'.
Joon-Pyo quickly muttered as he walked away as fast as he could, "I'll go and come back."
"Alright."

Thinking it was safe, Joon-Pyo caught up with his friends before he heard his father yell, "F4 FIGHTING!"
This day was already off to a great start.


A helicopter flew through the sky over Shin-Hwa Academy before landing on the school grass. Exiting the chopper was a girl with brown, short hair and wearing the latest fashion. She looked around boredly as the helicopter rose up and flew away.


Students in their uniforms chatted happily as they climbed up the stairs into the school. Some of the girls talked the latest gossip, showed off their new jewelry and hairstyles; others just seemed to have been giggling. Guys were boasting about new achievements their families' companies have made, showed off their riches, and joked around.

One of the conversations overheard was of a trio of girls. The one in the middle seemed to have been bragging about her brand new shoes.

"They have only two pairs of these imported from Japan. I got myself one, guess who bought the other?" Her two friends waited excitedly, "Geum Jan-Di."
"That's so cool!" One of them gasped.
"I think it looks better on me." The middle girl smiled as she strutted away.
"Oh. My. God. You have to totally let me borrow it!"
"Me too!"

The F4, who had been listening in, shook their heads. These people get so worked up over the simplest things.


It had been endless wandering through the school, again. Even with maps, they still had no idea where they were, so they decided to split up to cover more ground.

Yi-Jung had been holding the map and focusing on it so hard that he didn't know where he was going and bumped into someone, making her drop her stuff.
"Oh my, I-I'm very sorry!" he embarrassedly apologized as he kneeled down to help her pick up her things. Quickly swiping up the pencils and papers, he noticed one of the sketchbooks opened and handed it back after getting a quick look at the drawings inside.

"Did you draw those?" he grinned, "They're very good!"
The girl stared at him strangely until he got uncomfortable, "Uhm… I-I'm lost, do you think that you could point me to where the lunch hall is…?"
Staying silent for a moment, she pointed behind him. He nodded and bowed, "Ah! Thank you very much… Goodbye!"

And as the quiet girl watched him leave, he couldn't help but smile.


Eventually, the F4 regrouped and were inside one of the many buildings at the school. It seemed to be going well until people started shouting out, "They're here! P.O.K! AHH~!"
Suddenly, crowds of students were swarming the building's entrance as they pushed and shoved the four, confused boys aside.
Coming through the door were a pair of girls who didn't wear school uniform but did wear indifferent faces even in the midst of fangirling and yelling people. They walked forward and ignored the ones around them as they did. Yi-Jung did notice that one of the girls was the one he bumped into earlier.

Then, the two girls stopped walking and turned around to face the smiling three girls from earlier, the middle girl in particular. Everything quickly went silent. The F4 looked around curiously at the scared girl and the anticipating students around them.

The middle girl's smile disappeared and shakily looked up, "I-is something wrong?"
"I'll give you to the count of three…" the girl who said this had short, brown hair and wore the latest fashion.
"What… what for…?"
"One… two… three." The brown-haired girl then turned to her friend, "Ga-Eul, could you give me your ice-cream?"
'Ga-Eul' looked at her strawberry ice-cream cone boredly and shrugged as she handed it over, "Sure, I'm not that hungry."
The short-haired girl then gave it the nervous, middle girl and stared at her expectantly. Until, she finally and sadly dropped the ice-cream right on top of her own shoes. People gasped but made no move to object.

And as the short-haired girl and Ge-Eul continued and walked away, others surrounded the now tearful, ice-cream shoed girl, asking if she was okay and walked to a nearby restroom or wherever. Everyone else just left and went on to their next classes. That left the F4 to just look around questionably with mixed emotions.
"Who was that crazy chick?!" Ji-Hoo finally asked, looking to his friends for some answers.
"Yeah and why did everybody just stand there and watch?" Joon-Pyo questioned, "How could they just stand there and watch?"

"Hey loudmouths, "someone behind them spoke in English. The four boys turned around to see three guys glaring at them and in Korean the middle guy spoke, "You better watch what you say."
Looking over the random trio, Woo-Bin asked, "Who are you?"
"Who us?" the middle one put on a 'cool face' before saying, "My name is Alexanders."
"Sunday." The right guy answered, giving a white smile.
And the last one flipped his blonde hair, "Michael."

Unimpressed, the F4 mentally shook their heads. Ji-Hoo's eye twitched as he asked, "So, are you their fan club or something…?"
"No, we're the Jin Sun Mi (the true, the good and the beautiful) of Shin-Hwa High School!" the four new students looked at the three guys, each with a face that could only be described as a 'WTF' look, "Now, you better not have had been talking about P.O.K., transfer students."
"P.O.K.?" Yi-Jung repeated in question.
"The Princesses of Korea, duh." the one named Michael rolled his eyes.
'What a stupid name…' the F4 thought.
"So, that bully was that notorious Geum Jan-Di?" Joon-Pyo frowned widely.

The Jin Sun Mi's jaws dropped, all offended.
"Notorious? You must mean famous! If you don't keep an eye on what you say, you will end up in big trouble!" Sunday took a step towards Joon-Pyo and swatted at him, "I hear your father works with penguins."
Goo Joon-Pyo grabbed the swatter's arm and moved away uncomfortably, "Actually, they don't have penguins at that zoo. You might be talking about the Puffins. Now, what do you want?"
The rich kids snickered.
"This is my first time meeting the son of a zookeeper, "Michael said sarcastically before leaning in as to get a closer look, "It's very fascinating."
"Back off, Hair Dye." Ji-Hoo snapped, glaring at the blonde boy. Michael scoffed and stuck up his nose.

"Since you're all commoners who know nothing of the world, and this is your first day here. I'll be nice and let you off with a warning." Alexanders explained.
"What?" Yi-Jung tilted his head.
"What you said about Geum Jan-Di and Chu Ga-Eul!" Sunday shouted.
"What?" Joon-Pyo furrowed his eyebrows.
"We can't?" Woo-Bin asked.
"Are they really that great?" Yi-Jung couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"Hey transfer students! How could you have had never heard of P.O.K.?" Michael gasped.
Annoyed, Ji-Hoo answered, "Uh, no, because we have more important things to hear about."
"Tch, let's go guys." Turning away, the fake, the annoying and the stupid walked away. The F4 were then left there, wondering what the hell just happened.

Tap, tap, tap

At Joon-Pyo's house, Joon-Pyo, Ji-Hoo, and Yi-Jung watched as Woo-Bin typed onto a computer, searching up the names of the famous P.O.K.

Click

"Chu GaEul, the daughter of a successful architect, is a well-known artist since she was 14." Woo-Bin clicked links and read, "She's had her artwork up in famous museums all over the world. You know, she's also the granddaughter of Chu Yoon He, one of the cultural assets independence fighters on Korean History textbooks and the owner of Woo-Song Museum."
"Woo-Song Museum?" Yi-Jung gaped, "Do you mean it's her family? How much are they?"
"It'll hurt if you imagine." Ji-Hoo said.

Click

"That's Geum Jan-Di." Woo-Bin continued, "Even 3 year old Korean kids know her. Not only is her father the Chairman of Shin-Hwa, but she's the owner of the Soo Am Art Foundation, a European soccer team, and a Major Leagues baseball team. She is definitely a person worth envying."

"Those are the Princess of Korea?! No way!" Joon-Pyo exclaimed.
"That is so not fair." Yi-Jung groaned, hitting his head against the wall.
"Hold on guys, "Ji-Hoo said with a thoughtful look, "Quit whining and listen: I have a plan."


Just so you guys know, Alexanders is a type of spice like Ginger is. Also, yes, Joon-Pyo's dad is a zookeeper at a zoo with no penguins, but they have puffins.
