"Stupid P.O.K." Yi-Jung grumbled through the halls of Shin-Hwa alongside his best friend, Woo-Bin, "Princesses, hmph… more like Dictators…"
"Calm down, Yi-Jung," Woo-Bin muttered, not really paying attention to his rambling.
"How can I calm down when Chu Jan-Di and Geum Ga-Eul, two people having everything served to them on a silver platter, are acting so ungrateful?" The helmet-wearing boy yelled, stopping to face his friend, "They… they better not show their faces to me again o-or… I'll jump off a cliff!"

"Really?" a voice behind them interrupted. The pair turned around to Chu Ga-Eul, looking more or less annoyed, "You sure are chatty."
Yi-Jung, embarrassed out of his mind, looked the other direction to avoid eye-contact, "S-sorry, we thought nobody would be listening…"
"Would you really jump?" the girl asked curiously.
"W-well… I… h-how much did you hear?" Right now, he was seriously considering it if it would mean avoiding this awkward situation.
"The part about dictators or ungratefulness?" Ga-Eu gave a smug look before walking away, "Oh, and it's Chu Ga-Eul and Geum Jan-Di not Chu Jan-Di or Geum Ga-Eul. Our names should be the least thing to hate on, shouldn't it?"

And after she left, Yi-Jung couldn't help but lean onto Woo-Bin, who was quietly laughing to himself the entire time, and groan, "That's it. I'm jumping."

Lunch time: The time for eating a variety of gourmet food cooked and served by professional chefs instead of mystery meatloaf slapped together by scary lunch ladies, all of it is made every day for thousands of students at Shin-Hwa. It was too bad the F4 couldn't afford any of it.

As they watched rich kids admire and enjoy their delicious cuisines, the four guys sat a table eating their home lunch. It was pretty nice with the clean, eating conditions and just the smell of rich food was good, but unfortunately, all good things must come to an end.
"Hey you there, "someone next to their table said in English, they looked up to see the Jin Sun Mi. In Korean, Micheal fake-gagged, "What the heck is that commoner stuff?"
"Oh, great. You're here." Woo-Bin muttered.
"Don't you see that?" the blonde boy asked, pointing to the area the three got their food from.
"What?" Yi-Jung asked, his mouth full of noodles.
"A meal for over $50 is foolish back at home." Jun-Pyo answered, taking another shovel of rice.
"So, you four are willing to humiliate yourselves and eat this poor-person meal in front of everybody?" Alexanders asked, giving them a dirty look.
"That's the plan." Ji-Hoo stated, happily swallowing his food as to smite them.
"How… gross." Sunday frowned, eye twitching.

Before their cheery conversation could continue, another student squealed out, "P.O.K.! P.O.K. is here~!"
Looking up, the F4 saw the pair of girls stride in coolly as everybody else in the cafeteria crowd around them. Jun-Pyo scowled, stabbing into an orange with his chopsticks grumpily. The orange juice squirted into his eye and he yelped.
Quickly covering his injured eye, somebody tapped him on the shoulder, and he turned around and used his good eye to see two twin brothers. One of whom were offering him a handkerchief.
"You wanna be careful with those." The other brother said, smiling.

"Ah, see? You did make friends~!" Woo-Bin's mother grinned, practically jumping up and down in her spot. She was also currently washing the dishes at their home, so she spilled some water and soap on the floor.
"Mom!" Woo-Bin cried, stepping away from the mess his mother was creating.
She hastily placed the plates back in the sink and dried her hands before asking, "They were really twin brothers?"
"Uh, yeah. It was like they were the same person. Both of them had identical faces." He thought Lee Jae-Ha seemed more sensitive since he was the one who offered Goo Jun-Pyo the handkerchief while Lee Min-Ha seemed a bit more aloof.
"That's nice, "She smiled, "I was worried you boys might've been seen as outsiders."
"We are." Woo-Bin deadpanned. His mother smiling face was replaced with a look of confusion, "Strangers, foreigners, aliens. Mom, we're émigrés."
"Parvenu?"
"I think it's best to just keep my head low and graduate before anyone notices."
Woo-Bin's mom squished his face and looked at her son seriously, "What are you talking about?"
"Mahm."
"You're a genius, Woo-Bin. You started talking complete sentences almost right after you were born, always had perfect grades since elementary, tutored college students in middle school, and the only reason you haven't skipped any grades is because you begged your father and I to let you stay in the same grade as your friends. Sweetie, you and your friends will be able to solve your problems because that's who you are." She spoke passionately, looking him straight in the eyes to show what she meant, letting go of his face.
Woo-Bin sighed and rubbed his face before hugging his mother, "Thanks, mom."

"Ah! Ouch!" Yi-Jung cringed as his mother plucked his eyebrows, "Mom! What is this?"
"Hold still, I'm just fixing you up, so you can look nicer for school!" she clicked her tongue impatiently when her son wouldn't hold still. They were at Yi-Jung's mother's house in the bathroom as she had his head hanging above the sink. She said she was going to give him a complete makeover, so he could impress the girls at the school. Meanwhile, So Il-Hyun was laughing his head off by the doorway.
"M-mom, I don't need any of this! It's ridiculous!" Yi-Jung tried to sit up but hit his head on the faucet, "Gah!"
"See? This is what happens when you don't listen to me!" She yelled, checking over him for bruises or cuts.
"Ha, c'mon, little brother, just tolerate it. Mom works all day all week and took the time to care for you instead of resting like she usually would do." Il-Hyun chuckled, leaning against the door frame.
Rubbing his forehead, Yi-Jung looked guiltily to his mother and groaned, "Fine."
"Yay! Now, do you think you'd be more noticeable with highlights in your hair?"
"NO!"

"Even the poorest girl there would probably still be an 11 out of 10 compared to poor girls here." Goo Jun-Hee commented to her brother, texting to a friend on her phone while laying down on the couch. Jun-Pyo frowned and shook his head.
"That doesn't mean anything to me! Why would I even consider dating such stuck-up girls?"
"It's a super A plus in a wedding consulting agency."
"That doesn't make it any better!"

Jun-Hee rolled her eyes, "Dad, don't you agree with me?"
"Not now, "their father muttered, strongly concentrated on the clothes he was ironing, "I'm creating perfection…"
"Why are you ironing my uniform?" Jun-Pyo questioned, his father wasn't exactly the strong, young guy he used to be, so this would be hard work for him.
"Yeah, you're kind of old and stuff, no offense, dad." Jun-Hee, in her own way, voiced concern for her father's health.
Finishing the blazer, he held it up and smiled with pride, "I see rich people's kids wearing fancy outfits like these, and now I'm the father of a kid with a fancy outfit. Not even on weddings do some people get to wear this kind of fine cloth."

Taking it from her father's hands, Jun-Hee tried it on, "Hey, it kind of fits me. You think I could wear this to a friend's party?"
Their father quickly pulled it away, careful not to wrinkle the fabric, she stuck her tongue out. Jun-Pyo shook his head and looked up when his dad started speaking to him.
"Jun-Pyo, you have to treat these clothes better than you would treat anybody else in the world. Treat it like you worship it. NO stains or tears. Alright?" Jun-Pyo huffed and went to his room as he heard his father laugh, "Now why would this hurt dear old dad? It's for my son, my flesh and blood. I'm completely fine~"

Ji-Hoo scrubbed at his teeth with his toothbrush in his pajamas. Pausing to talk to his reflection, he glared, "Geum JanDi and Chu GaEul. The world has had enough of your injustice. It's time for to someone speak out to you Tyrants of Korea. And they are the F4! Starting tomorrow, both of you will regret ever even using the word 'commoner'!"
"Ji-Hoo!" he turned his head to see his grandfather, looking at him, "Quit talking to yourself, people will think you're crazy."
Ji-Hoo then watched Yoon Seok-Young walk away and mumble to himself.

'Tch, hypocrite.' He thought before spitting into the sink.

The next day, the F4 went back to school, though it's not like they had a choice.

They walked into one of the main buildings in the early morning, Jun-Pyo yawning, Woo-Bin stretching his muscles, Yi-Jung rubbing his eyes tiredly, and Ji-Hoo leaning on Jun-Pyo to keep himself from collapsing on the floor, unconscious. Michael, Sunday, and Alexanders, stalking past the four, scowled at them behind their backs.

"P.O.K.! This way!" a voice squealed which queued everyone but the F4 to rush over to the entrance like they did last time. Crowds of students surrounded the area and waited excitedly for the pair of girls.
And a couple seconds later, Geum Jan-Di and Chu GaEul entered with disinterested expressions, same as before except they were wearing different outfits.

People moved out of the way for them as they moved forward except for one tall, shy-looking, guy with swept hair. He smiled nervously and held out a small cup of coffee out, "G-Geum Jan-Di, "he stuttered, looking down at his feet, "Would you like to try this fresh cup of coffee? I-it comes from one m-my father's many coffee shops. They're very p-popular and are a g-great wake-up call! I-I'd very much appreciate it…"
Geum Jan-Di looked between the cup of coffee and the guy in front of her emotionless before accepting the coffee but not drinking it. He grinned widely as the crowd around them gasped, the Jin Sun Mi especially. That's when Jan-Di removed the lid and splashed the tall boy in the chest and face area. He let out a yelp as the drink slightly burned his skin but not enough to leave marks.
The Jin Sun Mi along with a few others smirked. Alexanders smugly explained, "Geum Jan-Di wouldn't just take any drink unless it was prepared by a professional. Not some two-bit wannabe who knows how to pour a glass."
Humiliated and pained, the boy ran away. Geum Jan-Di looked distastefully at the now empty coffee cup and tossed it on the ground before passing through the silent students with Ga-Eul. Jin Sun Mi fought each other just to get a chance to hold the paper cup.

P.O.K. found then themselves blocked by the F4 who stood in their way.
"Who are you?" Jan-Di asked, bored, "You have something to say?"
Ga-Eul looked expectantly at Yi-Jung who quickly diverted his eyes and Woo-bin who pretended to not notice. Ji-Hoo looked at Jan-Di.

"A lot. I have a lot to say." He growled, sending a glare at her, "You, young miss!" his outburst echoed and caught the attention of the students behind them, still crowded around the entrance, "Where's your respect?! Didn't anyone teach you to have manners before? Just because you didn't want it, didn't mean you had to hurt the guy with hot coffee! All you had to do was say 'no, thank you' or something!" the F3 looked at their friend, surprised at his boldness, "Maybe you could've also accepted the drink? Are you just going to send him jumping off a roof as well? Y-you… You bi-"

"Who are you?" the girl repeated, snapping Ji-Hoo out of his fantasy. He looked around to see that everything he just said was imaginary with disappointment, "You have something to say?"
Grinding his teeth, Jun-Pyo looked at the pair and took a breath before answering, "No."
The four boys moved out of the way as the P.O.K brushed them off and left. Before leaving, Ga-Eul couldn't help but smile out of amusement at Yi-Jung's embarrassed face.

The four boys looked at each other with shame and anger. Ji-hoo clenched his fists at his missed opportunity, Jun-Pyo frowning at his submissiveness, Yi-Jung cringing at his empty threats, and Woo-Bin face palming and questioning his morals.

"So, you couldn't go through with it?" Lee Min-Ha asked taking a sip out of his own coffee. He and his twin brother walked with the F4 through the school yards, talking about their missed chance to tell the P.O.K. off. Woo-Bin glared at the book he was reading.
"What are you doing?" Yi-Jung asked as his friend furiously flipped through pages.
"I'm punishing myself by reading 25 novels in a row."
"First of all, that's ridiculous. Second, you like to read." Jun-Pyo looked at his companion, confused.
"Well, they say too much of a good thing can be bad." Woo-Bin explained, turning the page.
"Hm… I should punish myself too!" Ji-Hoo nodded, "spending a day with my family should work."
"The punishment that the Justice Boys inflict upon the super obsequious…" Lee Jae-Ha grinned as if they were real superheroes, "Will you feel better after?"
Jun-Pyo smiled, "Probably. As long as our good friends/ sidekicks Lee Jae-ha and Lee Min-Ha will be right by our sides!"
The twin brothers happily accepted their roles. Lee Min-Ha took another sip out of his coffee and commented, "I don't know what she was thinking. This stuff is great!"
"I'll just keep my water for now." Jun-Pyo smiled, holding up his water bottle.

"Can I have some?" Lee Jae-Ha asked, reaching for the drink before his sibling pulled it out of his reach.
"Heck no, I asked if you wanted me to get you one, and you said no!" Jae-Ha pouted and chased after his brother for the drink.
"Just a sip?"
"No!"
"Please?"
"Leave me alone!"

The F4 laughed at the twins' shenanigans, feeling cheered up already, until Min-Ha turned a corner and bumped into someone. The four boys quickly went to catch up with them once they saw the terrified look on his and his siblings' faces.
Once they did they saw that Lee Min-ha had spilled his coffee on Geum Jan-Di's boots. The girl glared at the boy with Chu Ga-Eul standing next to her.
"Oh, I- uh, I'm so sorry, Miss Geum Jan-Di!" he stumbled, bowing, his brother standing by, worriedly.
"Sorry?" the shorter girl asked, offense in her voice, "If we apologized every time we did something wrong, that'd leave us for need of the law or police, right?"
"B-but, it was an accident." Lee Jae-Ha stuttered out, defending his brother, "W-we'll buy you same pair as soon as possible!"
"So, you're richer than I am, then?"
"Wha-"
"These are not some cheap knock-offs from some common shoe store made of pieces of leather glued together. How would you be able to even afford a pair like these?"
"I apologize," Min-Ha repeated, "How can I fix this?"
Thinking to herself, Geum Jan-Di held her foot out and stated, "Lick it."
The brothers and F4 looked at the girl, surprisingly, with Ga-Eul being the only one amused by this, "Excuse me?"
"You asked me, and of course, I gave you an answer." She explained, half-smirking.

"What's your problem?" Jun-Pyo bursted out, stepping in front of the brothers and glaring at the smaller girl, "He said he was sorry. Both of them feel bad about this, and you should accept their apologies. It's not like they meant to ruin your expensive boots!"
"Who are you?" Jan-Di scoffed, "Excuse me, Curly, but we do things differently here in Korea. How informal."
Ga-Eul leaned in to whisper into her friend's ear. Laughing, Jan-Di looked at Jun-Pyo and the F3 who were standing a few feet away, "You four are the 'Justice Boys'? Sounds like a boy band that plays in their mom's garage." She scanned Jun-Pyo up and down, unimpressed, "I would've thought at least one of you would be supermodels or something like the actual Justice League, but all I see is Curly and Helmet Head over there. How… disappointing."
"Well, good then. I'm glad we disappointed you." Woo-Bin growled.
"And it's the F4." Yi-Jung added, crossing his arms. Ga-Eul gave a small smile.
"F4? What does that stand for? 'Fly 4'? Are your superpowers to 'not think of your statuses' and 'be nosy'?"
"Well, they're our friends, " Ji-Hoo huffed, "but you're probably not familiar with that word 'friend'?"
"Oh, how sweet." Jan-Di sarcastically awed, looking up at Jun-Pyo, "Well, let's test this friendship now, shall we? Why don't one of you four lick it, and we'll forget the whole thing?"

The friends froze, Ga-Eul's smile fading questionably. Looking between each other, the F4 thought about what to do worriedly, until Jun-Pyo got on one knee and bent his head down, looking to be about to perform the action.
His friends gasping at his actions, not wanting this humiliation to go upon their friend, but before they could do anything, a splash of water got Jan-Di in the face. She gasped, shocked, while Jun-Pyo looked defiant at her, empty water bottle in hand. The F3 and the twins with reactions mixed with surprise and satisfaction; Ga-Eul covering her mouth to hide her entertained grin.

Dripping in water, Geum Jan-Di glared fiercely at Goo Jun-Pyo and yelled, "What's wrong with you?"
Scowling, he responded in a condescending tone, "You ask them if they're richer than you, but did you earn all of that money yourself?"
The girl looked at him in surprise at his disrespectful words; he raised an eyebrow at her, "What? Being nosy is my superpower, remember? Well, my power is more for fighting against overrated brats who rely on their parents' accomplishments!"

While she was speechless, Woo-Bin walked up to her took out his wallet and tossed a few bills at her, "Calculating it by Kangnam standards, it's usually $2.50, but don't bother bringing it by 'Woo-Bin's Cleaners', you'll be gravely disappointed. I'm just covering the charges in case the stain doesn't come out, of course."
Adding to the offense, Yi-Jung handed her a coupon with the word 'Sweets' in bold, "I heard you don't usually eat commoner's food, but with this, you could save the money you didn't earn and get the 'F4 discount'~"
Ga-Eul laughed off to the side as finally, Ji-Hoo walked up and threw a ticket to the zoo at Jan-Di's face with a cocky smile, "Maybe a trip to the zoo'll do ya good? I heard they got puffins."

Satisfied, the F4 walked away along with the twins who were amazed at them. A few seconds later, Jan-Di growled and stomped on the 'gifts', "Th-those bastards!"

SOOOO SORRY FOR LATE UPDATE! Please forgive this lowly commoner for taking advantage of the winter break and its luxuries!

Anyway, I am somewhat satisfied with what we got here. Jan-Di is mad because the F4 got a hit at her, ooh, kill em~! ...I-I mean... don't actually kill them... o.o Tell me in the reviews if you want me to add or change somethings as always, they always help motivate me and inspire me to continue!

Thanks for skimming~!
