Chapter 14 - Learning The Ropes

Lina felt hands running through her hair. At first she was very content with the feeling of her hair being combed through with someone's fingers but it came to her realization that, she was on her own. Su Bin had left before she had fallen asleep on her beautiful and comfortable sofa. So she was jolted awake and was staring at a girl around her age with a dark skin complextion. Her eyes were a light green and her hair was pulled tightly back into a tight ponytail that cascaded it's way down her body.

"Hello!" She says with a bright smile.

Despite being creeped out so early in the morning, Lina smiled tiredly. "Hi."

"Toni! I told you not to wake her until we all arrived." Lina looked towards the door to see two men standing there.

"I couldn't help it. It's beautiful." Toni, Lina asumed to be the one who was touching her hair said getting off the couch. "They finally gave me something to work with." Her Korean had a slight accent to it so Lina knew she wasn't from Korea.

"Hi." Lina smiled. "I don't mean to be rude, but who are you and why are you all here?" She asked rubbing at her eyes.

"We're you're management team. I'm Kang Min Soo, your manager and this is Choi Soo Kwang and he's your road manager." A tall man with a smile that was contagious says.

"And I'm Toni! You're hair stylist. To be honest when I heard the rumors that your hair was curly, I was very doubtful. But, I'm so happy I get to work with your amazing hair." Toni said with a happy smile.

"My name is Park Yoojung. I'm your makeup artist and I'm excited to work with you." A young girl says entering the dorm with a large bag.

"And I'm Daniel Kim!" A handsome bulky guy says entering the drom.

Lina gulped, already guessing who he was but she didn't have the guts to say it. "And you do...." She dragged.

"I'm your trainer for the rest of your career." He smirked.

Lina was running on the treadmill, non-stop. She was heaving breaths and all Daniel could say was that she was huffing like that because of all the junks she ate the night before. He stood in front of her watching her every move, making sure she was doing everything correctly.

Lina continued to whine non-stop because it was only five in the morning and her whole body was dying. Daniel wouldn't allow her to watch dramas while she was running on the treadmill either. She even teared up when he said 'no'. She didn't care that her trainer saw all the rubbish of junk food and ramyeon wrappers on her dorm floor, showing proof of the unhealthy life style she lived, she didn't even care that her weight was on display and Daniel was very verbal about how overweight she was for a model with her height. But when he refused her accessibility to dramas while exercising, she couldn't help but tear up about it.

"Great!" Daniel cheered happily as he shut off the treadmill. "I know you were a little bummed about the whole drama thing, so I'll make you a deal."

Lina immediately looked up to him with such a hopeful gaze in his words, ignoring her loud breathing as she tried to catch her breath. She looked like a child who was on the verge of winning a prize. Her hair that was kept into a high ponytail with curls escaping from her stressful work out, matted to her sweaty skin. Her ears immediately perked up at the word 'drama' escaping Daniel's lips she didn't realize that she was looking at him like he was the next Jesus, it was sad and her mom would of slapped her for her stupidity.

"If you're able to loose the amount of weight required to loose this month, with the success of dieting and exercise, I'll include watching dramas to your workout routine." Daniel informed.

Lina squealed, jumping in the spot clapping as she did so. "I can do it! Trust me, I can!" She smiled happily.

"Well what are you waiting for? Go and start doing some squats. Your butt is perfect but it needs to be toned." Daniel said clapping his hands together to make Lina run to the opening section of the gym.

After Lina's gruesome workout, she went for a shower. She laid on her bed with only a sports bra and shorts on. Too lazy to attempt to dress in anything else. Her energy level has went from her usual hyper self, down to that of an old man probably on the verge of dying. Daniel had done some good damage to her with the workouts he had given her.

However, she wasn't the least bit done. A man came into her dorm. He dressed very fashionably. Even Lina, who had no knowledge on fashion, had to admit the man looked beautiful in his outfit. A tight silk blouse and even tighter jeans. His hair is dyed blond and it hung lowly, just above his eyes. He stood in the doorway of her room and smiled evilly at Lina.

"I'm Lee Dong Hyun! I will be teaching you everything about fashion!" He says with a hint of mischief.

Lina almost groaned out loud. Almost. She reminded herself of the contract she obediently signed, and knew of the hard work that was coming underway. She had to remind herself of the reason why she wasn't out on the street with Dirt dying to eat real food. So she put on her all so amazing smile and nodded. She pulled on an oversized t-shirt, one that Dong Hyun very much disapproved of her wearing, and sat next to him on her living room floor. They sat in front of the coffee table, analyzing the things that lined the top of the coffee table, Lina guessed the items belonged to Dong Hyun and that he placed them there. Sitting on top of the coffee table had a bunch of magazines, some even in a different languages.

"This is going to be so much fun. I will be quizzing you later. I'm teaching you everything there is to know about the fashion world. Director Kang told me you're special so the more you're prepared, the better." Dong Hyun smiled. "Now, grab the first magazine."

Lina looked at the messy pile spilled onto the glass surface of her coffee table, confused. "Uhm." She said before picking one.

"Okay, so this magazine is BeMostLike's very own fashion trends. BeMostLike has the most important critics in the fashion world down in South Korea. They barely  ever call things ugly, but when they do, you better believe it's ugly. Flip it open." He demanded and Lina did. "Okay on the front page, that model's name is Carrie Black from London. She is a model that loves Korea so she's here often modeling. She's mostly associated with BeMostLike magazine. Next page. That's Cole Bryant, from America. He's half Korean and Half American, so that means he's extra sexy."

The hour went on with Dong Hyun explaining who was who and what was what. Just that was hurting Lina's brain. It didn't seem like it was over just yet. Now it was time to introduce the models under YGK Plus. He did inform her that she would meet them all soon but it was better to learn about all their names now. Even their personalities were given to Lina as an insider. Dong Hyun was very verbal of who to stray away from because Lina would be eaten alive.

Meanwhile, Lina just wanted to sleep and couldn't wait for the end of the day. What surprised her more was, she didn't even watch a single episode of any drama to help her sleep tightly. Which made her sadden mood, go even further down south. It was only her first day, and she was already over it.
