#rkminhee

   She spent 3 years courting something to claim as her own, only to be met with constant rejection. No matter what she did no one would give her a chance, or even take a second look at her once they found out her family background. She had all but given up on the idea of fame until modeling fell into her lap, and it was in modeling that she flourished. In modeling no one cared about your background, all that mattered were your looks.

   So when she hears about the Superstar KTWorld the last thing she wanted to do was go to another audition.  Things were going well for her. She had a growing modeling career, a stable job, and for once in her life people weren’t looking at in pity or disdain. For once her life was normal.

   But all it took was one small pebble to start an avalanche in her life, all over again. She remembers the moment clearly, a familiar face flashing across her television screen in some music video,  of some boy group whose name she would never remember, and her jaw dropped. That was Minhee on her television. It had been some years but the resemblance was undeniable and she would recognize that face anywhere.  

    It was as if time stood still. And as each frame of the girl she used to call a friend, flashed across her screen she could feel her blood boil. How had this happened? No, how could this have happened? There was a time when she had it all, when she had been on top of the world, and Minhee was just another pretty backup friend, a doll in her menagerie of admirers   That was supposed to be her on the screen. She was supposed to be living a life of fame and yet here she was at a standstill.

   It wasn’t long after watching that music video she filled out the form and submitted the paperwork. She would not allow herself to fall behind any longer.

She walks into the audition room full of confidence. It may have been a while since she’s been to an audition that required a script, but a pro never loses their skills. She greets the judges with a smile plastered on her face, not one of the fake half smiles she uses at go-sees to unnerve her competition, but a genuine one that almost makes it to her eyes. Almost.  You only have one chance to make a good impression and she was determined to do just that.

"Hello, My name is Park Shinhye".

The scene isn't a particularly long one, but that works to her favor. She chooses to focus more on the emotion rather than the words. A script could be learned but a feeling couldn’t. Her memorization of the script is good but where she excels is her expressions.  She plays up the emotions smiling sweetly at the judges when she begins and feigning disappointment once she realizes that her ‘magic trick’ has failed. She offers the panel a wink as she pantomimes a ring with the ending phrase.

"I'm so so so excited to spend time with noona!" he started off, happily jumping about as they walked the straight path towards the little house they'll be residing in the next few days, while they both were drawn into the picturesque scenery especially since they arrived just in time to witness the orange tinted sky in the sunset.

However luck wasn't there, the next day, it was raining rather heavily with lightning and thunder and they were both disappointed, Minhee feeling more so as it felt like Byungjoo went on a wasted trip.
