Jungkooks POV
I got dressed and headed back down stairs to be in front of the guests.
I talked to alot of people. Alot of people had different views on alot of different problems in South Korea which they all want me to improve.
I looked down at my watch once I finished talking to some other younger male.
It read 9:38pm
I felt my stomach start to churn.
The Oprah Winfrey interview will be on screen in 2 minutes.
I walked over to where the staircase was breathing slowly to try and calm myself down.
9:39pm
A count down for a minute appeared on the screen.
Under the number counting down it read.
Oprah Winfrey's interview with Prince Jeon Jungkook will comence soon
My eyes glanced at Jimin.
Jimin is the person who makes me feel happy, safe, and loved.
I have fallen for him.
Jimin looked at me and we just looked at each other. I smiled looking at Jimin and Jimin smiled back at me.
Jimin made a heart with his fingers which made me smile.
I felt strong because of Jimin.
I know I've done the correct thing.

The Oprah Winfrey interview started playing on the TV.
I watched myself walk into the room and shake Oprah's hand before sitting down.
"100,000,000 views" Jeong-hoon said sitting down on the stairs next to me.
"I'm Oprah Winfrey and on today's show I am going to be sitting down with the Prince of South Korea, Jeon Jungkook, to gain some deeper understanding of this hidden prince"
Then Oprah turned to me.
"So Prince of South Korea, is there a name you believe would be easier for me to call you?" Oprah asked.
"Jungkook would be fine" I watched myself say.
"Alright, so Jungkook tell the audience a bit about yourself" She said.
"I am 21 years old today, I have a passion for singing and dancing, I live in South Korea" I started.
"Now Jungkook do you attend school?" Oprah asked.
"Ah no, I don't attend a public nor private school" I answered.
"Then how have you had an education?" Oprah asked me.
"I have tutors come into the palace to teach me" I answered.
"And how was it made sure that your identity couldn't be leaked by the tutors as well as your safety not harmed by them?" She asked.
"Well when the tutors arrive they go through a process much like the people who are attending the ball tonight, they get patted down to check they have no weapons on them, there phones are taken from them upon arrival as well as any digital device, and if they need a device for teaching it will be supplied inside the castle which will have blocked anything that they don't need access too, so therefore my safety isn't harmed" I responded.
"And because you have private tutoring inside the palace may I ask what subjects you have been taught?"
"I've been taught, English, Chinese, Spanish, Hindi, Arabic, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Taiwanese, French, German, Vietnamese, Malaysian and of course Korean as well as I've studied Geography, Photography, Maths, Accounting, History, Legal Studies, Dance and Music"
I heard a lot of gasps coming from the audience at the ball.
"And because you don't attend a school does this make it hard for you to grow socially?" Oprah said.
"Yes, I mean I am confident at speaking out however because of the lack of social experiences tonight's ball may be very hard on me" I said in the video.
"So do you have any friends?" Oprah asked.
"Well yes, I have bonded very well with the people in palace"
"Do you have any examples of people inside the palace you have grown bonds too?" Oprah asked.
"For example my maid, she's a lovely women or the young guard I have at the door right there, he's a lovely trusting person to talk to" I answered.
"But you give orders to them? Do you think they find you bossy?" she questioned.
"I have no doubt a lot of people in the palace find me pushy and bossy because it seem's I'm on top of the chain for most of the time" I answered.
"For most of the time, correct me if I'm wrong but does that mean there's times where these people have control over you?"
"Yes, there is times where I am influenced by the people inside the castle over my decisions" I answered.
"Can you give me an example of these times?" Oprah pushed.
"For example hiding my identity for multiple years, what I'm allowed to say and what I'm allowed to know, as well as my marriage decisions" I answered on screen.
I felt my stomach get uneasy.
"Let's address these times, what would you have done if you were in control of your identity status?" She asked.
"Well from hiding away it could make the public think a few different things, such as I am hiding as a wimp play of my role and duty to ensure my safety, and make people question 'where am I?' when bad things happen in the community, as well as because I've only come out now with my identity does this mean when I am king people won't trust me because I've hidden away from the public for a few years of my life" I answered.
"So you may have changed this if you have the control too?" Oprah asked.
"Yes Possibly would have" I answered.
"And now lets address the fact people control what you say as well as knowledge?" She mentioned.
"Well it's not like I can swear nor talk bad about the castle, not that it's bad or anything, just even out of frustration I can't escape the castle as well as I've been taught that I can't complain about anything, things like that and about Knowledge I've come to know I hadn't been taught everything and that people don't want me knowing things" I answered.
"What don't people want you knowing?" Oprah asked.
"For example not that long ago I believed that it was only opposite sex's who could be in relationships, I had no clue about anything of the LGBTQ+ community" I answered.
"And how did you find out about the community?" Oprah asked.
I stopped for a second thinking about Jimin in the video but I can't mention him.
"I googled it" I answered.
"And why do you think the information was kept from you about the LGBTQ+ Community?"
"Because my father's beliefs are different about the LGBTQ+ Community"
