Blackpink -> {CEO AU} -> Having an affair with you

Requested: No

Group: Blackpink

Genre: Fluff. Angst. Smut

Warning: Swearing. NSFW. Mention of toxic relationships.

A/N: Cheating is obviously bad, do not do in real life.

Jisoo

In the past, Jisoo would try her best not to travel too much since it did have a negative effect on her family, especially on her spouse who did not want her traveling as much as she did before the two of them married. As Jisoo tried to be the good wife, she decided to adhere to her spouse’s request, and so limited her time on traveling for overseas conferences, instead leaving it to the steady hands of the vice president of her company, them being more than capable to handle everything in her stead.

But that was years ago, and with her desire to expand her business, she simply could not leave it in the hands of just her vice president. She wanted to monitor and deal with everything herself, and since it was her company, it was her right to make all the final decisions regarding the expansion, as well as her responsibility to ensure that her company is taken care of along with all of her employees. However her spouse did not see it that way, and Jisoo’s company expansion has caused much strife in her marriage.

It was wrong of her to decide to punish her spouse for being unreasonable by opting to go on all overseas ventures to conferences and to monitor the progress of her expansion, however Jisoo was at her boiling point. Since the start of her marriage, Jisoo shelved herself at home in order to appease to her partner, however now she was being expected of relinquishing her duties to the vice president in order to become a more stay at home partner? Absolutely not, that was not who she was, and to think that her partner would try to make her someone that she was not, it was just infuriating.

Jisoo knew just what kind of person she was, and it was not someone who could just remain home all day and do nothing. Her spouse who just kind of woman they were marrying, and yet they trying to change that, to try change her, and Jisoo just would not stand for it. That was probably the main reason why she was driven into your arms instead.

You were one of the overseas partners that was helping Jisoo with her business expansion, monitoring its progress and reporting it back to her along with your own suggestions which could better her business development. You respected Jisoo, and you offered a shoulder and an ear to her whenever she was overseas to check in on her expansion and to attend conferences, which caused Jisoo to start appreciating you as a friend.

But with her marriage crumbling apart, and the stress that Jisoo felt building up within her, she needed some sort of escape, a release which could just provide her with the comfort and relief that she needed. And you became that escape for her.

“-I told you, I have to extend my stay for another week, I am needed here.” Jisoo said, her phone pressed to her ear as she spoke to her spouse while she leaned back against the headboard of her hotel bed.

As the common complaints of her spouse numbed her ear, the bathroom door opened and Jisoo glanced to see your towel bound form walking through it, your hair wet from your shower and droplets running down your shoulders as adjusted the towel around you. You lifted your head and caught her staring, flashing her a smirk which Jisoo couldn’t help but reflect back. You walked over to the bed and kneeled heavily on it, leaning over until your lips were at Jisoo’s neck and peppering sweet kisses to it which made Jisoo tilt her head back with a blissful sigh.

“Like I said before, I am needed here.” Jisoo said, not bothering to listen to any further complaints as she slipped one hand behind your neck to keep you in place, tilting her head even more to provide you with more access to her neck. “Stop it, I told you that I want to oversee all of this personally. It is my business after all.”

Even though you were doing a wonderful job of keeping her body distracted, her mind was was hardly away in bliss as the complaints of her spouse was only getting repetitive, and daring to bring up how she was starting to ruin the marriage was just the last straw. She didn’t bother to hear what else they had to say, Jisoo promptly hung up her phone and slammed it down on the side table before turning to you. She tugged you away from her neck and instead slammed her lips to yours in a passionate kiss, sighing blissfully at the warmth you provided. The two of you kissed for a few moments before you pulled away, cocking your head to the side as you looked at her.

“You’re awfully tense from a single phone call.” You said, leaning down to press a kiss to the corner of her cheek, which Jisoo reverted to land on her lips. She sighed when you pulled away, rolling her eyes slightly.

“It’s just the same thing over and over. I’m sick of hearing it.” She complained, which made you hum in response. She felt you twirl a strand of her hair around your finger, tugging gently at it before moving to grab her hand and lifting it to your lips where you laid a kiss to the back of it. When Jisoo locked her eyes with yours, you gave her a wicked grin.

“It seems that you need a distraction to take your mind of things.” You said with husk, your accent a bit more prominent as your eyes darkened in desire. Jisoo knew that hers had darkened in turn as she sat up to slide her fingers along the towel which was hiding your body from her.

“Desperately.” She breathed, her fingers tucking into the towel and giving it a firm tug, easily undoing its bind around your body. You grinned as the towel fell away and watched as Jisoo greedily took in the sight of you. You reached out and cupped her face with both hands and brought her gaze back your face.

“Then allow me to be of assistance.”

You smashed your lips to hers, teeth clashing but Jisoo did not care as she closed her eyes and let you lower her to the mattress and straddle her hips. She needed an escape and you always provided her one, it was what she deserves after everything she is being put through.

Jennie

Envy is hardly something Jennie is unattached to, especially since she was the subject of envy given her success and apparent perfect life that she has. While her fashion empire is one that soars high in the sky, and she has the apparent perfect partner who is dubbed to be Jennie’s muse in her designs, no one could truly understand the complete loneliness that she feels. While she covers herself in diamonds and comes out with the most outstanding ideas for the next step in fashion, her life is hardly as perfect as she makes it out to be.

If she is not busy developed new designs, she is busy putting out the fires that are made by her partner as they decided to soar around the town, taking any drink and any person which is offered to them. Why does the media not know about the scandalous infidelity of her partner? Because Jennie is the one who is always putting out the fires. While the cheating would affect her partner, given the label ‘cheater’ always crushes down on a career, it would affect Jennie more because not only will the brand of her company be affected by her top star, but also then her own dirty laundry will be left out to dry and Jennie simply could not have that.

She could not have you suffer because of her partner.

Perhaps it was your sweet, naive smile which had caught her attention first, or the fact that you were just so eager to please her, always offering to run errands for her and ensuring that every need of hers was fulfilled, Jennie can’t quite remember, but she does know that she can’t let you go as it has been so long since she has had a partner so sweet and attentive to her and not getting drawn by the newest model which has set foot on the walkway.

Jennie gasped and titled her head back, fingers tangled in your luscious locks as you kneeled before her at the desk, her legs spread wide while you were settled between them, hands keeping a firm grip on her thighs while your mouth lapped at her bundle of nerves, wound tight with all the teasing you have put her through so far.

“Oh you’re good, so good.” She praised, her words positively affecting you as your tongue swirled around her bud, making another sharp gasp leave Jennie’s lips before she tightened her grip on your hair. “Oh that’s perfect.”

While Jennie’s partner would claim one of the reasons of why they were getting it on with someone else would be because Jennie was always at the company doing work, and that would not be a lie, however it is also an alibi for Jennie to have as to not be caught out with her affair with you. Your were an up-and-coming designer who was granted the opportunity to personally work with Jennie on her new designs for the company, giving a fresh perspective to the CEO, so of course it would not be surprising for the two of you to be together in a professional setting.

Although professionalism was the last thing on Jennie’s mind, especially when she adored you so and allowed you the opportunity to worship your idol and lover. She felt her core tightening and she subconsciously tightened her grip on your hair while her hips rocked in time with your tongue, her need to climax becoming more and more intense.“Y/N...Y/N...”

And you knew what you were doing to her, because your tongue sped up even more and suddenly Jennie could not bear it any longer as she dug her nails into your scalp before letting out a scream when she finally toppled over the edge in pleasure, keeping your head close to her core as you languidly helped her ride out her climax, only pulling away one Jennie’s body stopped trembling from the ecstasy.

The innocent smile you gave her was hardly one of innocence, given that you were covered in Jennie’s desire, but she couldn’t help but smile back at you as she retracted her nails and apologetically massaged your scalp, having probably bruised it with the tight grip that she had on you. Your eyes fluttered shut and you hummed in pleasure at the sensation, prompting Jennie to sit up properly from her desk chair, her other hand tilting your chin up so that she could look at you, your eyes opening once again as you felt her touch.

“You are a sight.” She said, her eyes gleaming as her chest felt warm just by looking at you. You just smiled at her.

“I can say the same thing for you.” Jennie chuckled before moving her hand to the back of your neck and pulling you up so that she could meet your halfway, her lips covering yours in a kiss.

Jennie groaned as she tasted herself on your lips and tongue, and moved her hands to your sides to prompt your to stand up and then pulled you into her before eventually getting your to straddle her, your own panty-clad bottom half pressed against Jennie’s bare girths with a noticeable wet spot. Jennie sneakily moved one of her hands to cup you and smirked when a pleasured groan left your lips in the kiss.

“I think it is only fair that my muse gets a reward for pleasing me so.”

Your hurried nods was the only response Jennie received but she was more than satisfied with it as she locked you in an intense kiss as she slipped her hand past your underwear to cup your core with her bare hand, teasingly rubbing you with her fingers while nipping at your bottom lip, feeling your fingers digging into her shoulders and pleasure gasps escaped you.

Chaeyoung

Did Chaeyoung believe that she was being shameless? Yes she did, however she simply could not help it as she did not have the heart to break someone else's and to be the cause of pain, even though she knew that it was going to happen eventually as there was only so long that she can keep her secret and time was going to run up eventually, especially since suspicions were rising.

While none of her business associates have picked up on it, her partner is not as easily fooled and she could see and feel how Chaeyoung has pulled away from them, physically and emotionally. Chaeyoung simply was not the same with them anymore, her mind was always elsewhere and she was more glued to her phone as usual, and with the subtle smiles she would flash at the screen whenever she thought that her partner wasn’t looking, it was pretty obvious on what was happening, however her partner simply chose to not believe it.

Loyalty is something which Chaeyoung values the most, especially since some fool decided to break her heart by becoming involved with one of her business partners, so cheating was something nobody ever believed that Chaeyoung was capable of doing, especially since she knew how painful it was to be cheated on. However here she was, doing the same very thing which was done to her in the past which changed her.

As Chaeyoung’s secretary, you were expected to attend these events with her in order to keep track of any deals which could be struck, meetings that will be organized, and to be prepared to organize anything for Chaeyoung or any of the other businessmen and businesswomen that were in attendance. Chaeyoung valued your hard work and work ethic, but even she knew it was risky of bringing her partner along as her plus one, although it was hardly odd as they have attended with her before.

While they played the role as the good partner, Chaeyoung could hardly focus on them as her eyes were always dancing around the room to spot you and to ensure that you were doing well, which did not go unnoticed by her partner who would at times call her name to bring her back to the conversation they were having with one of the other guests in attendance, or if they were milling about the room. Chaeyoung smiled and leaned in to press a kiss to their cheek, but even then her attention was drawn away to look for you again, which did not go unnoticed.

“Chaeyoung! I am so glad to have found you!” You exclaimed, hurrying over to Chaeyoung and her partner with slightly flushed cheeks, a wide smile on your face. Chaeyoung smiled automatically at the sight of your smile.

“I was here the whole time.” She teased, her eyes shaping into crescents. You waved your hand impatiently in the air.

“Whatever, the head of Kim Corporation wants to meet you! They’re interested in having a meeting to discuss a possible partnership!”

That was big news for Chaeyoung, especially since she has been interested in having a partnership with them for a while. While they were a slightly smaller company that her own, they would help her greatly in terms of resource supplies, therefore she was more than happy to converse with them.

“Wonderful job as ever Y/N, as usual.” Chaeyoung complimented, making you preen in pride. Chaeyoung then turned to her partner, a slightly nervous look on her face. “I’m sorry love, but I-”

“Just go.” They said with a forced smile. “I know how important it is, you don’t need to worry about little old me, I can take care of myself for a while.”

Chaeyoung smiled and leaned in to press a kiss to their cheek before released their hand, following you as you lead her away from her partner to go to wherever the head of Kim Corporation was, which happened to be outside the hall near the balcony where the smokers would go for a smoking break, leaving behind her partner in a hall of business people.

As expected of Chaeyoung, she managed to organize a meeting between herself and the head of Kim Corporation to discuss a business partnership, much to her delight while she shook their hands while you wrote the date of the meeting in your notebook, as well as exchanging contact information with their secretary for further communication. Chaeyoung removed herself from the smoking section with the intent of returning back to the hill to reunite with her partner, however she felt the need to celebrate a little first, which is why she was tugging you away from all of the excitement and eventually shoved you into an empty office where she immediately pressed you against the wall with her lips hot on your neck.

“You’re brilliant.” She praised, nipping at your skin while your finger were tangled in her hair.

“You’re the one making the magic happen.” You breathed, tilting your head to the side to provide Chaeyoung with more immediately. Chaeyoung laughed before sucking at your pulse point.

“Not without you. You’re the one who organized it.”

“I-”

“Just take the credit love.” Chaeyoung whispered, covering your lips with hers in a kiss.

Deciding it was best not to argue with you, you wrapped your arms around Chaeyoung’s neck and kissed her back just as passionately as she was kissing you, reveling in her love while her partner remained in the hall waiting for her return.

Lisa

Lisa couldn’t help but take in your profile as you took notes beside Lisa during the meeting, fulfilling your duties as her secretary in taking the minutes for her to go over later when she decided to make a final decision over the negotiation which was happening right in front of her. You were simply so focused on your task, Lisa was certain that you probably didn’t even realize that Lisa was sneaking glances at you, not that she should be since she should be focusing on the terms which were being discussed, as well as the fact that her wedding ring was dutifully on her left hand.

“Mrs Manoban, I believe that we have come to a compromise. We will elevate the pressure off of your company by supplying half of the raw resources, however we fully expect an ten percent increase in profit shares. Does that sound agreeable to you?”

Snapping her attention back to the matter at hand, Lisa stared at the businessman for a few moments before nodding. “I will have to look over the finer details, but I do believe that is acceptable. Thank you very much for joining us gentlemen, Miss Kim will see you out.”

Lisa’s vice president nodded at Lisa before standing up, and shaking hands with the businessmen along with Lisa before escorting them out of the meeting room, Lisa lingering behind so that no one would catch her moving into your personal space to whisper in your ear, fingers gently touching the back of your hand as it remained frozen to your clipboard while you still held onto your pen.

“In my office in the next ten minutes.” She said, smirking when she saw your flushed cheeks and flashed you a wink before exiting the conference room.

She nodded at her respective employees as they greeted her as she made her way to her office, and when she opened the door, the city view was the first thing which greeted her. Lisa loved her office view and couldn’t help but smile at the sheer beauty of it before walking towards the coffee machine she had placed in her office for her own personal use. She placed her personalized cup in it and watched with time patience as it made her caffeinated drink to her liking before placing her cup with another personalized one and restarted the process. Lisa had taken a thoughtful sip from her coffee when the door of her office opened and you came stumbling in slightly out of breath. Lisa grinned.

“Has it already been ten minutes?” She teased, loving the color red which dusted your cheeks. You stumbled over to Lisa’s desk to place your notes on it, and Lisa walked over to with you the other cup in hand, holding it out to you expectantly. You took it with a mumbled thanks and Lisa cocked her head to the side as she pursed in thought, which almost immediately caught your attention.

“What?”

“I’m just wondering what has gotten you so frazzled?”

“I’m not frazzled Mrs Manoban, I’m just-”

“Lisa.” Lisa interrupted you, taking a step forward and reaching out to cup your cheek, stroking it tenderly with a steady hand. “I told you that when we are alone, you call me Lisa.”

You flushed at Lisa’s words and glanced away from her intense gaze to instead look at the glinting piece of jewellery on her fourth finger, her wedding ring shining slightly when the right ray of light hit it. Lisa noticed your sudden change of attention, looking at her wedding ring almost blankly before pulling her hand away to remove it, placing her coffee cup on her desk before tugging of the wedding ring and placing it on the table. She then moved to cup your face with both of her hands, forcing you to look at her.

“Now say it.”

“H-Huh?”

You became a little lost in your thoughts as you watched Lisa remove her wedding ring just to appease your guilt that was steadily growing. While Lisa was married, she was romantically involved with you, and whenever you saw remnants of Lisa’s married life, you always felt your guilt increase. But Lisa also caught you before you could become swept up in it, just like now as she was staring at you expectantly.

“Say my name.” She ordered, her gaze intense as she stared into your colored eyes. You swallowed slightly before licking your lips, Lisa’s eyes immediately glancing down to watch the action.

“L-Lisa.”

“Again.”

“Lisa.”

“One more time.”

“Lis-”

With your saying her name with steady ease, Lisa simply could not help herself any longer. Lisa interrupted you again, but this time with a kiss, her hands tugging your head to her while she maneuvered your body until your lower half was pressed against Lisa’s desk, practically sitting on its surface, while Lisa pressed her body against yours. Lisa kissed at your lips fervently until you finally pulled away for some much needed air.

“L-Lisa!”

“Just like that.” She purred before she locked her lips with your again, catching up with her kiss dosage from you which she had lost during the meeting.

CEO Jennie Kim

A/N- you’re her assistant ;)

(I’m hella gay for Jennie so if this gets a little sexy I’m sorry...but I’m also not)

BOSS. ASS. BITCH.

So fashionable

Gucci, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Versace, etc.

Always in heels

Tight pants and blazers are her go to

Loves to show off her figure

Stone cold mother fucker when it comes to business

With you however

She is an absolute sweetheart

Cute nicknames for you

You two are in a first name basis

“Ms.Kim?”

“Y/n I told you to call me Jennie.”

Buys you expensive gifts

You two don’t have a professional relationship

It’s like you two are just best friends hanging out

While also kicking ass in the marketing world

Your title is assistant but really it should be co-CEO

You save her ass a lot of the time and she always repays you

Either in gifts or... other things ;)

You go to every meeting with her

She has quite an intimidating aura around her

Most people stay clear of her...and you

You two aren’t that subtle when if comes to your relationship

Okay let’s be real you two have been dating for months

“Secret relationship” yeah okay

Every one knows, even the paparazzi

Known as the bad ass couple

You two could conquer the world if you wanted to

Between the smart marketing skills, large bank account, and bad bitch at it’s head

Kim Enterprises is quite a force to be reckoned with

Jisoo

She remembers how it felt when she first met you, she remembers the giddily dance the butterflies performed around her insides. It was the first time she had felt genuine love since her parents passed.

She sang to herself those songs she once hated, the songs that only people so intoxicated by another would even think about singing. She remembers how disappointed in herself she was when she kept slipping into that sing-song trap.

Jisoo keeps catching herself in the middle of simple minded acts, doing something that correlates directly to you, someone far down the ranks compared to her social and importance in stance. But she knew what she had to do. Jisoo knew she had to just ask you out.

When she found herself sitting in her expensive leather chair, surrounded by files and books of god knows what with you standing awkwardly in front of her- she panicked.

When she asked you, her voice betrayed her. The unstableness of her mind was long gone with the way she had phrased it- how she even said it.

She sounded cocky, she even looked cocky. Sat with a pen being passed between her fingers as she's surrounded by furniture only someone making six figures could even think about affording. She reminded you of previous people in your life, and you didn't like it one bit.

No matter how important this job was, you were willing to risk losing it to stay away from the more arrogant people alive, so you did what you felt was best, and rejected her.

"Sorry Miss Kim. But I'm not remotely attracted to you and I never will be" you then proceeded to excuse yourself from her office in a rush, not wanting to see nor hear the aftermath of your actions.

But she just stared at the door, eyebrows furrowed as she let out a heavy breath.

She blew everything before anything could even begin. But she wouldn't let that stop her from trying again... and again, until she gets what she deserves.

Jennie

Jennie had grown all too selfish within her time of being the CEO of a major fashion brand. She had high expectations from everyone, but failed to meet them herself. She was a hypocrite nonetheless, and you hated that the most about your boss.

You remember all the times she's called you to her office, demanding a lunch with a recipe so long and complicated that it wouldn't stick to your mind the first million times you heard it. She judged you on your work performance, your work attire, your timings on reports and fights within the building.

And you. Hated. It.

Today was barely any different either, considering that Jennie had judged you upon first inspection as you entered her office.

From there, her voice remained dominant above all else, but lacked the manners she expected from everyone else who worked both beneath and above her. She was hypocritical, but she couldn't see that, she was too blinded by the products and income her company was making.

"No" you had simply let out, it rolled off of your tongue so easily that it almost scared Jennie half to death. Since when did you grow a backbone? "Miss, with all due respect, I'm your assistant and you're my boss. I couldn't ever love you, what we have is a mutual work bond" if you'd even call it a bond at all…

Jennie had simply crossed her arms, displeased with the answer she received, and being daddy's little girl since she was basically I'm the womb, she had the sour attitude to do something back.

"Wrong answer"

Rosé

She had nothing wrong with her. Generally. Rosé had no flaws, but that's what creeped you out immensely.

Every time you passed her in the hallway, your eyes would seem to follow her until they couldn't. Every time you had to accompany her to a meeting, your hands etched to touch her- more specifically her hands or thighs.

You were heavily in denial for any small crush you had cursively developed from all these months you've worked with her. She looked like a goddess, talked and walked like one too- but no, you didn't want any involvement, knowing she would be bad for you in some way or another.

Her voice was just too soothing, her face too pretty, her movements too elegant. There was something too strange about her, like she was god's masterpiece sent down to earth by mistake. And she's successful? Clearly there are favourites amongst you all.

But, even if God had his favourite label set on Rosé, he was keeping an eye out for you too because when Rosé had just casually asked you to go and get lunch with her as a "date date" you could've taken that chance... but instead you were petrified and acted out of pure instinct.

"I-Im sorry Miss Park. I don't think we should see each other that way. I mean, you're my boss and I can't say I love you now because that would be a lie. I don't think I'd ever love you" you released it all, heart sank deep within your chest as you see the glimpse of embarrassment on her face, fixed with a disappointed frown.

"It's okay… I'll see you around" her voice cracked as she hurriedly walked away. However, you failed to notice the small smirk that crept its way onto her lips just before she left.

Lisa

She was everywhere. Lisa hogged every billboard, every magazine page, every front window, and cluttered everyone's mind. Lisa was undeniably selfish but couldn't see it- and you had quickly caught onto that- having it been her worst trait amongst the rest.

Lisa would always boast about her products, making sure every aired show had to sponsor her at least twice for them to air. She was that stuck up about it. Her grin also contained heavy amounts of her horrendous personality, it wasn't all bad, granted, but certain things just ticked you off.

So it wasn't a shock when Lisa had asked you to be hers. Be hers like you were an inanimate object used for her snaked heart to turn to stone. She had slung herself lazily forward, her head resting in the palm of her hands like she couldn't be any more interested in your response. It's not like she actually expected you to say anything other than "yes" because she knew how everyone dropped to their knees for her… everyone but you.

"Sorry ma'am, but I don't feel that way about you" her eyes darted to you, a warning glare as she just sat up straight, eyes observing your every word and action. "And I never will- now if you excuse me. I have work"

Being fired wasn't on your agenda, and you knew how lame you were for just leaving her, but you weren't going to stay in the same room your boss is in- especially not after you rejected her.

And as much as Lisa wanted to go after you, she stayed, and trashed her whole office, books with torn out pages rested, scattered along the floor as her chairs and tables where toppled over. She'd have to pay her cleaner double, maybe even triple to fix this mess of a sore tantrum.

Book 3 Part 1 - Chapter 8: A Man

"Kim Yeoni-ssi! Kim Yeoni-ssi! Is it true that you're having an affair with Bae Joohyun?" "Jennie-ssi! What do you say about his unfaithfulness? Are you still his girlfriend?" "Jisoo-ssi! Jisoo-ssi! A word please! What do you say about your brother?"

It was 2 pm on the first day of the new year. The sun was shining brightly, and I felt blinded by what felt like thousands of camera flashes blinking rapidly around us, snapping our pictures like machine guns as soon as we stepped out of the car. I looked around, and was shocked to find a crowd of reporters—hundreds, even—had gathered around the entrance to Blackpink's apartment in Hannam, undoubtedly trying to learn more about the bombshell article that dropped this morning.

I was at Jennie's apartment last night, celebrating New Year's Eve together with Jennie, Irene, and Jisoo, when we heard the news. We were having sex, and after we finished, Irene checked her phone and noticed that there were missed calls from Yeri. She called her back, only to find that she was at the IPG HQ with Hyejin and IU.

The Spymaster only told us that a Dispatch article about my supposed affair with Irene was about to be released in the morning, so we should prepare for a lot of media attention. Jennie and I took it casually initially, but Irene and Jisoo were concerned. IU herself was sounding stressed, before telling us that she'd tell us more in a conference call with all of us today.

After hearing this, all four of us couldn't sleep. We discussed this until it was 3 am in the morning, before Jisoo finally fell asleep out of exhaustion. Soon, Jennie, Irene, and I followed her example.

As we woke up this morning, social media in South Korea and all over the world were exploding with reactions and theories to my supposed affair with Irene. Sure, a number of them defended us, saying that the picture must have been taken out of context, and that I was merely holding her hand because I was being courteous to her, but the majority of the comments were negative, condemning my behaviour.

Some even went as far as calling me an ungrateful bastard, for I was already dating the hottest idol in Korea and still had the audacity to have an affair with Irene. The nastier ones directed their attacks at Irene, calling her a bitch for being the third person in an otherwise scandal-free Kim-Kim Couple. All in all, the situation was chaotic.

YG had released a statement earlier today, distancing themselves from the news, declaring that they had nothing to do with my relationship with Jennie or Irene, while Irene received a call from BoA, the CEO of SM Entertainment herself, asking her to clarify this.

What amazed me was how Irene handled the situation with absolute calmness. She denied the news, but she asked BoA to refrain from releasing a statement to the media and to give herself some time to deal with this on her own. BoA agreed, wishing her luck, and sending SM Entertainment's bodyguards to secure Red Velvet's dorm from the inevitable throng of reporters coming their way.

We walked the short distance from the parking lot to the apartment while being mobbed by the reporters. I was beginning to wish that YG had sent their bodyguards to protect Jisoo, Jennie, and I, when suddenly a team of tall, black suited men parted the sea of reporters, opening a way for us to enter the apartment. I saw that Mr. Park, IU's personal bodyguard, was the one leading the team, and I felt grateful. IU must have sent her bodyguards to protect us.

"Kamsahamnida, Park-ssi," I said as I walked past him. He nodded curtly, standing firm, blocking the reporters from following us any further.

As we safely entered the building, I saw that Mr. Park's team started to disperse the reporters. I walked behind Jennie and Jisoo who were walking arm in arm. Jennie let out a sigh and took off her sunglasses, while Jisoo rubbed her belly, calming the twins inside her.

"Ssh, ssh... It's alright," she whispered to the babies in her womb. I held her hand concernedly. "Are you okay, Noona?" I asked her. She smiled and nodded. "Yeah... They just kicked. Maybe they were startled to feel so many people around them," Jisoo said, still rubbing her baby bump.

I placed my hand on her bump, gently rubbing it. I could feel movements, and suddenly I felt anger burning inside me.

"Fuck these reporters," I uttered angrily. Jisoo stared at me concernedly. "Calm down, Yeongi..." she said, hugging my arm.

I nodded, but I was still angry, mostly at myself. Why was I so careless? Jennie noticed this and hugged my other arm as we entered the lift and went up to the 19th floor. I looked at her apologetically.

"I'm sorry, Babe... It's a mistake. I..." I started, but she cut me off. "No, Yeongi. Stop blaming yourself," she said generously. "It's not like you were going out with someone we don't know. It's Irene. She's your girlfriend. Don't worry," said Jisoo.

The lift opened at the 19th floor, and we found Rosé and Lisa already waiting for us, looking concerned.

"Unnie! YeongYeong! Thank God you've arrived safely!" said Rosé as she rushed to hug Jisoo and Jennie. Lisa hugged me and stared at me concernedly. "There must be reporters downstairs, right?" asked Lisa. I nodded. "It felt like there were hundreds of them," I said. "Shit!" Lisa cursed angrily. "Did Mr. Park's team reach in time?" asked Rosé urgently. We nodded. "Yes, thank God for IU-unnie," said Jisoo. Rosé sighed and nodded, smiling weakly. "Come on, let's get inside," said Lisa.

We walked inside and sat in the living room. Jisoo and Lisa went straight to the pantry to make some coffee for us, while Rosé set her laptop up. She turned on the camera, and a few moments later the screen lit up, showing the faces of a few IPG members. Suzy was there, as well as Sana. Joy, Wendy, Irene, and Seulgi soon came online, and Hyejin, IU, and Yeri came online too. I noticed that the three of them looked a little disheveled, still in the IPG Headquarters. They must have spent the night there.

"Good afternoon, everyone... Happy New Year," started Suzy, looking gloomy. "Yeoni, Jisoo, Jennie, Irene-unnie... Are you guys okay?"

Jisoo and Lisa distributed the coffee cups to everyone before sitting and nodding. Jisoo pushed a coffee cup in my direction, telling me to drink it. I obeyed her, and the warmth of the coffee felt so nice in my body. It managed to calm me down a little.

"We're fine, Unnie," said Jennie. "It's just... There were so many reporters downstairs when we arrived. But we entered the building safely." "Thanks to Park-ssi's team," said Jisoo, nodding to IU. IU smiled. "Yeah, lots of reporters here too when I arrived this morning," said Irene. "Thankfully SM's bodyguards managed them nicely," said Joy. "Where are you, Unnie?" asked Yeri. "Are you at the dorm?" "Yes, I'm at the dorm. Joy's in her room," she said. Joy nodded. "I'm reaching soon," said Wendy. I noticed that she was walking outdoors. "Seulgi's still in Ansan, right?" asked Irene. Seulgi nodded. "I'll drive back to Seoul after this meeting," she said, but Irene shook her head. "No, no, Seulgi. It's alright. Stay with your family there this weekend. Don't make them worry," said Irene. Seulgi nodded.

Suzy sighed and nodded. She cleared her throat, grabbing everyone's attention.

"Okay. Thank God everyone's alright," she said. "Ji-eun unnie, what happened, really?" asked Sana to IU.

IU stared at the screen, before turning slowly towards Hyejin who sat next to her.

"Hyejin-ie... You want to... Tell us what happened?" IU said kindly.

Hyejin nodded, and Yeri squeezed her hand, offering her support. The detective looked up, and only then did I notice that she looked like she had cried the entire night. Her eyes were swollen red, and she looked really weak. What happened to the strong and confident detective I met yesterday?

"G–Good afternoon, everyone. I... Before I start... I... I... I want to apologize. All of this... It's my mistake," she said with a shaky voice.

The girls and I exchanged looks, but we didn't say anything. Yeri again squeezed Hyejin's hand, and the detective took a few deep breaths before telling her story.

"I... Last November, Dispatch's Editor-in-Chief approached me. He asked me to investigate Yeoni-ssi's relationship with Jisoo-unnie. I accepted the deal because I was in dire need of money, and then I went to Yeoni-ssi's apartment that same night, and I witnessed... I..." she paused.

I knew what she was about to say, and Irene did too.

"You saw us having sex," Irene said, completing her sentence, saving her from having to say it out loud. Hyejin nodded, looking miserable.

"Y–Yes. I thought, I thought you two were having an affair. I then went to Gangnam to clear my head. That's when I met Yeri. We... We returned home to Red Velvet's dorm, and..." Hyejin let her words trail off. We knew what she was saying, so we nodded.

Hyejin cleared her throat before continuing.

"The next day, I met Joy-unnie, Seulgi-unnie, and Wendy-unnie, and Wendy-unnie invited me to join them for lunch. That's when I saw Irene-unnie and Yeoni-ssi walking in, and... And I took your... Photo," she said very slowly, her voice cracking.

So that was why she took our photo. It wasn't for her investigation as a police detective, it was for her side-job with Dispatch. In a way, she was telling the truth when she told us that she was a reporter from Dispatch. I exchanged glances with Irene on screen, and she nodded. She had the same thought. Sana cleared her throat, grabbing our attention.

"Hyejin-ssi... I... I assume you get to know the Red Velvet girls better after taking the picture. Why did you still report back to them?" she asked the detective.

Hyejin sighed and looked down.

"I... Y–Yes. After I... Get to know the Red Velvet unnies better, and... And after meeting Jennie-unnie, Rosé-unnie, and Jisoo-unnie at church... I started having doubts about my deal with Dispatch, but... But... I really needed the money, and I... I also thought... That... I was doing Jennie-unnie a favor by leaking the affair to the media... I thought... I..." Hyejin rambled, but then she stopped, unable to speak, her body shaking. Yeri continued in her stead.

"I told her last night about your polyamorous relationship, Unnies, Oppa. When I finished telling her, she looked horrified and... And well, she told me everything," she said.

Hyejin nodded rapidly, closed her eyes, and broke down in tears. She looked so remorseful and ashamed, and both Yeri and IU flung their arms around her shoulders. We all fell silent as we saw Hyejin sobbing on Yeri's shoulder.

"J–Joesonghamnida, Yeoni-ssi... Joesonghamnida, Irene-unnie, Jennie-unnie... J–Joesonghamnida, everyone. I... I'm so stupid... Joesonghamnida..." she whispered bitterly, apologizing repeatedly in the most formal manner.

I looked around the room and the screen, and I saw no condemnation in the eyes of everyone present. I knew that all we felt for her was pity. Honestly, I didn't blame Hyejin, and I knew the other girls felt the same way too. She was merely doing her job as an investigator. I blamed my own carelessness for this problem.

"It's alright, Hyejin-ie..." uttered Irene gently. "Hyejin-ie... Don't cry. We're not blaming you," said Jennie kindly. I nodded and leaned closer to the screen. "I would have done the same if I were in your position and didn't know about our relationship," I said.

The Red Velvet girls took turns to encourage Hyejin, and the young detective nodded and forced a smile, but she continued crying, so Yeri brought her away from the computer screen, trying to calm her down. IU sighed and stared at the screen, but Suzy raised a hand.

"Ji-eun... I still don't get one thing. How come Dispatch suddenly asked a police detective to look into Yeoni and Jisoo? Everyone still thinks that they're siblings, right?" she asked. "That's the thing, Suzy. That's the thing I'm most concerned about," answered the Spymaster.

The Blackpink girls and I exchanged looks. What was she talking about?

"The thing is... Hyejin told me last night that Dispatch asked her to investigate Yeoni and Jisoo based on... Based on a photo that they took roughly four months earlier at Incheon Airport," she said.

Jisoo looked at me, looking puzzled.

"Four months... That was...?" she uttered. I nodded. "Before you guys leave for America," I said, but I too was confused. "What photo are we talking about, Unnie?" Rosé asked IU. "It was... A photo of Yeoni and Jisoo kissing in a car," she answered.

IU typed a few things in her laptop, and soon a blurry photo appeared on screen. I heard Lisa and Seulgi gasping. It was our photo alright. That was the kiss we shared in my car as I dropped them at the airport. I looked at my sister. She looked pale and horrified as she stared at the screen.

"Oh no," whispered Jennie. IU continued. "They were about to release this photo together with the article today, but thankfully I managed to delete it from the article before it got encrypted at midnight," said IU. "Encrypted? What do you mean?" asked Irene.

IU adjusted her glasses and cleared her throat again.

"When Yeri and Hyejin told me last night, I immediately tried to hack into Dispatch's system to delete the article. Usually media outlets don't have such good cybersecurity, so I thought it was going to be a cakewalk. But as soon as I deleted the photo, their firewalls went up, and I was kicked out. The file got encrypted, and I couldn't access it, no matter how hard I tried," she said, sounding frustrated.

I looked up. Jennie, Rosé, Lisa, and Jisoo were all looking horrified. I didn't know much about the world of hacking, but I knew that if a hacker as skillful as IU couldn't break in, then the security system must have been a top-tier one. I saw Wendy raising a hand.

"Hold up, Unnie... That's... That's impossible, right? Like you said, media outlets don't have that kind of cybersecurity," protested Wendy. IU nodded.

"That's the thing, Wendy. That's what made me think that this was not just Dispatch doing their usual gossip-mongering," IU said slowly.

I heard Suzy gasping, and soon Rosé, Jennie, Jisoo, Sana, Irene, Joy, and Wendy gasped too. Seulgi, Lisa, and myself were the only three who didn't understand, so we looked around in confusion.

"What... What do you mean?" asked Lisa. Rosé grabbed her hand. "It's him. It must be him," she uttered. "Him?" Seulgi asked. "Park Manse," said Irene, sounding angry. I saw Jennie, Suzy, and IU nodding. "What? Why? How?" I asked, feeling even more confused. IU stared at me through the screen. "Manse knows that we have the ability to hack and delete the file if we ever learned about it, so they must have put on extra security just in case," she said, but that wasn't exactly my question. "No, I mean... How does Park Manse fit into this?" I clarified.

Suzy looked up from the screen.

"Yeoni. Remember the initial request was for Hyejin to investigate you and Jisoo, right? Who else would know about it other than him and his cronies? Apart from us, they were the only ones who watched your VLive Exclusive from last year," she said.

Lisa jittered uncomfortably in her seat. I knew she remembered that it was her who leaked the video to the bosses back then, and so far, only Suzy, Sana, and I knew about it other than herself. I stared at her and nodded slightly, giving her an assurance that we wouldn't reveal her secret. She twitched her lips, thanking me silently.

"After last year's incident, you ended up famously becoming my boyfriend, Yeongi, and while the world accepts it happily, they must feel like there's some dirt they can dig up from our lives," said Jennie.

"The Editor-in-Chief must be under Park Manse's payroll, and he asked Hyejin's help to investigate you, but instead she found out about us," said Irene.

I stared at the screen frustratedly.

"Why would Dispatch want to join forces with Manse?" I asked. Suzy sighed. "The easiest answer would be money, but I think there's more to it than that. Something else must have appealed to Dispatch," Suzy said.

Joy raised her hand awkwardly, asking for a chance to speak.

"I think... Dispatch always looks for bad gossip about idols to start with, right? So it must be easier for Park Manse to entice the Editor-in-Chief to dig up dirt about Yeoni-oppa and Blackpink," she said.

Everyone nodded. Her theory sounded plausible. Rosé and Lisa looked up.

"That's right! At first they tried to paint your friendship with us in a bad light, right?" said Rosé. "But the fans instead nicknamed you 'Blackpink Boyfriend' and lauded our closeness," said Lisa.

Sana then gasped as she realised something.

"I... I remember now. They published a few articles about us too, right, Oppa? But then nothing ever came about, and fans quickly considered us simply being close friends with each other," Sana said.

Suzy grunted and slammed the table in front of her.

"Shit. He's back alright. First the Twice contract thing, now this... He's trying so hard to have his revenge against us," she uttered angrily.

I stared blankly at the screen. Shit. Was it true? Was this another one of Park Manse's plot? At that moment, I regretted not shooting his head to kill him last Monday at SM Entertainment's parking lot. Nothing of this would happen if I killed him that day.

Jennie noticed the look on my eyes, and she reached to grab my hand, but then her eyes widened as she looked at the person sitting next to me.

"Unnie! Are... Are you okay?" she asked panickedly.

I turned to see Jisoo looking as pale as snow. She was gasping for air, struggling for breath. I stood up immediately and carried her to the sofa, laying her down gently.

"Noona... N–Noona, are you okay? What's wrong?" I asked her as I clutched her hand.

She stared at me, and I noticed that cold sweats were dripping from her forehead. Lisa rushed to the bathroom to take hot towels, and Rosé picked up a pillow to support her head, while Jennie poured some warm water and brought it to her. What happened to my sister?

"What's happened?" asked Suzy and Sana. "Is Jisoo okay?" asked Irene. "Hang on! Give us a minute," answered Jennie.

Jisoo winched and clutched her belly. Was she having contractions? That was impossible, right? She had only entered her fifth month of pregnancy. I started panicking. I was scared for her, I was scared for the babies.

"N–Noona... J–Jisoo... Jisoo... Honey... Talk to me... What's wrong? Are you in pain?" I asked her. My voice was breaking, and I felt tears start to wet my eyes. I couldn't bear seeing her in pain like this.

Thankfully, she squeezed my hand back and shook her head. Jennie offered her the water and she drank it slowly, before sighing and closing her eyes. Rosé and Lisa had gathered around us, both of them looking terrified.

"Noona... Are you okay?" I asked her again gently.

Jisoo looked up slowly, and I saw from her eyes that she was... Horrified.

"Y–Yeongi... I'm... I'm scared," she whispered, clutching my hand tighter. "Scared? Why, Noona? Why are you scared?" I asked her, confused. "It's... It's happening all over again, isn't it?" she said, her voice shaking. "What do you mean?" I asked her again. She shuddered and shook her head, closing her eyes. "The thing from last year. It's happening again right... Park Manse has returned, and... And... And he's coming for us," she whispered, sounding so afraid.

She didn't say it, but from the way she clutched her baby bump, I suddenly understood her. She was having a panic attack. The trauma from last year must have haunted her, and now she was doubly afraid not just for herself and me, she was anxious for the safety of our children.

Jennie knelt next to me and held Jisoo's hands. She smiled and stared at her kindly.

"Jichu-Unnie... We're here for you, to protect you. The IPG is stronger than ever now, and... And I'm sure we'll find a way to stop him before he gets the chance to do anything bad," she said, comforting her.

Jisoo looked at her, and tears started streaming down from her eyes.

"B-But... Look what happened this Monday, Jen... You were hurt, Yeongi was hurt... Jeongyeon was shot, Chuyoung is still in a coma... He... He's dangerous. What if... I don't... I can't...," she whispered through her sobs, clutching her own bump, as if trying to protect the twins.

My heart sank looking at my sister like this. Lisa and Rosé sat by Jisoo's sides and hugged her.

"Unnie. Don't worry. Nothing bad will happen to you, to Yeoni, to the babies. We're working together to stop them, right?" whispered Rosé. "We have the Police on our side too, now. I'm sure we'll stop him in no time. Let's give Hyejin and the others time to find out more about him. We'll protect you, we'll protect the babies," assured Lisa.

Jisoo nodded, but she bowed down and cried. I straightened myself to hug her, but to my surprise, she pushed me away gently. The girls were surprised too, and they stared at us in confusion.

"Y–Yeongi... S–Sorry. I didn't mean to... B–But... I... I think... We should... Stay away from each other, for now..." she stuttered. "What? W–Wha... What do you mean?" I asked her confusedly.

She looked up and stared at me with her teary eyes, looking painful.

"Yeongi... Manse... Manse is targeting us. Us, specifically us. You and I. I... I think we shouldn't be seen together for the time being. We shouldn't risk it," she said seriously.

I stared at my sister incredulously.

"Risk it? What are you talking about, Noona? I... Why can't I be with you?" I asked her, feeling frustrated.

Jisoo didn't answer. She couldn't even look at me. She kept looking down and crying. Jennie stood up and gently pulled me away from Jisoo. I was about to protest, but she glared at me and shook her head.

"No, Babe. She's right," she whispered. "W–What? But..." "Yeongi. She's right. She needs some time alone. Please. Let's just give her some space," she said gently.

I looked up, and saw Jisoo had stood up slowly, Lisa and Rosé helping her. Jisoo looked really devastated as she stared at me, but she didn't say anything.

I tried saying something, anything, but no words left my mouth. I could only stare at my beautiful, angelic sister. My heart was aching. I couldn't believe that I was about to be separated from her. Jisoo closed her eyes and looked away, and I noticed that tears started streaming down from her eyes again.

"Girls, can you... Can you drive me home? To Geumho-dong," she whispered weakly.

Lisa nodded and picked up her car key, while Rosé took their coats and helped Jisoo wear hers. The three of them threw a glance at Jennie and I, before leaving silently.

Jennie and I sat back down by the table, staring at the screen awkwardly. Hyejin and Yeri had returned, and they all looked concerned after hearing everything. We sat silently for a few seconds, before finally Suzy spoke.

"I... I will ask Taengoo-Unnie to come and talk with Jisoo. They're... They're pretty close these days, those two pregnant moms..." she said slowly, sounding unsure. "I'll tell Seungyeon-unnie to come too," said Sana. "She can check her up." "Jen, we should come and comfort her too, right? I'll cook for her," Irene said. Jennie nodded. "Yeah. I'll meet you there," she said.

I didn't say anything, still feeling the shock of seeing Jisoo's panic attack and her subsequent decision not to see me for the time being. I merely stared at the screen. The IPG members looked uncomfortable and awkward, and they waited for each other to say something. Finally, Sana spoke.

"I... I think we can end the meeting now?" she proposed.

We all nodded. IU cleared her throat.

"I'll continue investigating with Hyejin and Yeri. Dara-unnie is on her way here. Wendy, when you're free, can you come to the Headquarters as well? And Sana, please tell Jihyo to come here when she's free too. I might need all my members for this," said IU. Wendy and Sana nodded.

"I'll tell Rosé and Lisa to come too," said Jennie. IU shook her head. "No, Jen. Let them stay with Jisoo for now," she said. Jennie nodded. "Alright, everyone. Thank you for your time. Let's keep each other updated," said Suzy, and she ended the call.

I sighed and looked at Jennie. She reached to hold my hand and smiled.

"Babe... I know you don't want to be separated from the mother of your children, but what she said was right. We can't risk it. You two need to stay away from each other for now. At least until the news has died down and everything's calmer," she explained at length.

I knew she was right. Of course she was right. But I simply felt really sad. I opened my mouth, but somehow Jennie knew what I was about to say, and she chuckled.

"Don't worry. I'll keep you updated about Jisoo-unnie. We'll take good care of her. Okay?" she said warmly.

I kept staring at her for a few long seconds, before finally I nodded.

"If you say so..." I said.

Jennie smiled and walked around the table to sit next to me. She hugged me tightly, and her warmth calmed me down significantly. I sighed and hugged her back.

"Lucky we got to spend last night together, at least," she whispered naughtily. "Ya, Jennie..." I uttered tiredly. She giggled. "At least you got to cum buckets inside her ass, right... And on her cute round belly... And on her beautiful face..." she started listing down. "Jennie!" I scolded her, but she started laughing. I laughed too. Seriously, this girl!

She hugged me tighter and rested her head on my shoulder. I stroked her long black hair and smiled, enjoying this long embrace. If I could count on anyone to take care of my sister, it was Jennie.

"Please take good care of her, Babe... I was... I was horrified just now when she started gasping for air like that," I said seriously. Jennie nodded. "I won't disappoint," she whispered.

We stayed in each other's embrace for a few more minutes, before finally we stood up and slowly walked to the door. Jennie kissed my lips tenderly, before wearing her coat and went out. She waved cutely as the lift door closed, and soon, she disappeared.

I stared at the lift door, unsure of what to do. I really wanted to just go to Geumho-dong to comfort Jisoo, but I knew she didn't want to see me at the moment, so I turned and entered back into Blackpink's apartment.

I slumped onto the sofa, thinking hard. What made her react so aggressively to the news of Park Manse's return like that? Sure, what we experienced last year was traumatizing, but I thought we all had moved on from it. A year of silence had given the IPG time to strengthen themselves too, and–like Rosé and Lisa said–now I knew we were ready for anything.

Was it... Because she's carrying our children? Knowing my sister, she wouldn't worry that much about myself, or even herself. That must be it. Her maternal instinct must have kicked in. She must be worried for our children. If she ever wanted to protect anyone with her life, it would definitely be the twins in her womb.

I sighed. Other than that, Jisoo might have blamed herself for kissing me in the car in that airport parking lot a few months ago. I blamed myself too for my carelessness. I remembered that day so vividly.

Jennie, Lisa, and Rosé were sitting at the backseat, while Jisoo sat next to me. As we arrived at Incheon Airport, the girls took turns to kiss my cheek to say goodbye, and Jisoo did too, but somehow I pulled her close to kiss her lips, thinking that I wouldn't kiss her lips again for four months afterward. She only giggled when I did that, and she kissed me willingly. We thought we were safe inside our car. We couldn't even imagine that a Dispatch photographer was lurking somewhere, snapping our picture.

I sighed again and rested my head on the sofa. I closed my eyes. My head was hurting, and my heart was too. I knew she had only left a few minutes ago, but suddenly longed for Jisoo so much, for her angelic smile, her cute laughter, her kindness and gentleness.

I wondered if she had reached our childhood home, if Jennie, Irene, Taeyeon, and Seungyeon had reached there safely too. I wanted to hug her, to comfort her, to kiss her, to tell her that everything was going to be okay. Somehow, I felt so tired and sleepy, and soon, I drifted to a stressful sleep.

* * *

When I jolted back up, the sky was already dark. I glanced at my watch, and saw that it was almost 6 pm. Fuck. Did I really just fall asleep for almost three hours on the sofa? I was really getting old, wasn't I?

I felt my throat parched, so I stood up and walked to the fridge and took out a chilled bottle of water. I drank it ravenously, and I looked around the dark room, wondering for a second where did the girls go, before realising that they were all in Geumho-dong now, looking after Jisoo.

I turned on the lights, and I blinked a few times, adjusting my eyes to the sudden burst of light. I took out my phone and video-called Jennie, the first person that came to my mind. A second later, Jennie picked up. She was smiling cutely as she saw my face. I noticed that she was in my living room in Geumho-dong. I could hear a few other voices behind her.

"Daddy! Where are you?" she asked me cheerfully. "Still in the apartment. I... I fell asleep after you left," I said, a little embarrassedly. She chuckled. "Yeah, we all slept too. I guess stress can make us sleepy too, huh?" she said. "That, and the fact we didn't sleep until around 3 last night," I said. Jennie giggled. "You're right," she said. "You're still in my house?" I asked her. "Yeah. We're all here. Taengoo-unnie and Seungyeon-unnie arrived an hour ago, Baechu too," she said, turning back to the kitchen. "They're cooking dinner now."

I nodded, feeling thankful that my sister was surrounded by good people that are taking care of her. I felt my stomach rumbling. Hearing that Taeyeon, Seungyeon, and Irene were cooking made me want to eat so badly.

"How's Noona doing?" I asked Jennie about Jisoo. Jennie took a second before answering. "She... She's okay, I guess..." she said, looking unsure. "What do you mean?" I asked her, alarmed. "She's been very quiet. I think she has a lot in her mind," Jennie said. "Seungyeon-unnie said she was having a panic and anxiety attack, and... Well there's nothing we can do other than letting her rest calmly for a while."

I really wanted to come and comfort Jisoo, and I knew Irene's cooking was almost as delicious as Jisoo's, so I decided to do just that.

"I'm coming there, Jen," I said with resolve, but Jennie gasped. "Ya! Are you crazy? Your Noona will flip!" she exclaimed. "Oh, come on!" I protested, but Jennie was adamant. "No, Yeoni. Listen. Give her some space. Let her rest, let her calm down. I'm sure she'll be back to her usual cheerful self in no time, but for now... Let's give her some space. Okay?" she said.

I wanted to object, but in my heart I knew she was right. No matter how much I wanted to see Jisoo, now was definitely not the best time. What she needed the most now was to have a proper rest. Eventually, I relented.

"Alright, fine..." I said begrudgingly. Jennie giggled. "Don't worry, Daddy. Irene and I are staying by her side tonight. We won't leave her alone, okay?" she said. I nodded. "Thanks, Babe..." I said sincerely.

I heard Jennie giggling again suddenly. I saw a naughty look flashed on her eyes.

"Aw... But then you'll be sleeping all alone tonight... Should I send Lisa and Rosé to tuck you in for the night?" she asked naughtily.

I laughed, knowing what she really meant, and she laughed with me, before continuing in a hushed voice.

"You have my blessing to fuck their brains out all night long," she said naughtily. "YA!" I yelled, and Jennie cackled.

Seriously, my girlfriend was so naughty! But her offer was really tempting. I could already imagine fucking Rosé's tight asshole again, and Lisa was getting more and more voluptuous and sexy these days, not to mention her thick, succulent lips. Shit. I felt my boner starting to form. Should I accept her offer?

"But, seriously... That's a good idea, right? They'd love it too! They haven't slept with you since we returned from The States, right?" she repeated. I considered her words. "Sh–Should I?" I asked her. She laughed and nodded. "You know you want it..." she teased again. Finally, I chuckled. "A–Alright then..." I said.

Jennie laughed and gave me a thumbs up. At that moment I saw Irene approaching from behind her. Her hair was in a bun, she was wearing an apron, and she looked sweaty, but somehow she looked so beautiful.

"Jen, who are you calling...? Oh... Hi, Yeongi!" she said, smiling cutely. "Hi, Irene!" I said, before chuckling and saying, "Gosh... Why do you have to look so beautiful?"

Irene blushed red, biting her lips and grinning shyly. Jennie giggled and flung her arm around Irene's shoulder.

"She is, right? Even when she stinks after sweating so much!" Jennie said, before sticking her tongue at me. "You won't get to enjoy her tonight, YeongYeong! Tonight she's mine!" "Ya! You crazy bitch!" scolded Irene, slapping her head while laughing.

Jennie laughed, and I couldn't help but laugh too seeing my two silly girlfriends. Irene turned to look at me, as if remembering something.

"Jen... Have you told him...?" she asked her. Jennie gasped. "Oh, that's right!" Jennie said, before chuckling and saying to Irene, "You tell him!" "What is it?" I asked my girlfriends. Irene wiped the sweat from her brow before speaking. "You should meet Sana tonight, Yeongi. She told us earlier that she has an idea on how to deal with the situation," said Irene. Jennie nodded. "Yeah, I think she plans to sue or subpoena Dispatch. I'll let her discuss it with you. Maybe over dinner?" proposed Jennie.

I nodded and smiled. That was actually a really great idea. Having dinner with Sana would definitely lighten my mood. She always managed to make me laugh with her silliness and clumsiness, and she made a good drinking buddy as well. Jennie giggled as she saw my expression.

"Ya! I know she's pretty and sexy, but don't fuck her, okay?" she warned me suddenly. "W–What the fuck?" I replied frantically, not expecting her to say that, but Irene laughed. "Sana doesn't like men, right?" she asked, but Jennie shook her head. "Come on, Baechu... That girl is so flirty to everyone, and she loves to blow people!" she said while pouting jokingly. "And she's really good at it too! Like, really good!" "Ya! Of course I won't! What do you think I am?" I defended myself. "Namja," declared Irene, sounding jokingly spiteful and degrading.

I laughed and shook my head. I somehow loved the way Irene simply called me 'A man'. It was... A little sexy too, the way she said it.

"Ya, Girls... Don't worry. I'll just have dinner with her and drink, before going home to Lisa and Rosie!" I said, crossing my heart. "You better!" replied Jennie, jokingly scowling at me, but Irene gasped hearing my words. "You're sending Lisa and Rosie to sleep with him tonight?" she asked her. Jennie giggled and nodded. "We're staying here with Jichu-unnie, right... And like you said, our boyfriend here is definitely a namja, so he'll need someone to accompany him tonight. Oh, why don't you send Seulgi too? She's single, right?" Jennie suggested jokingly.

Irene blushed and looked embarrassed, and Jennie laughed and kissed her cheek.

"W–What? N–No! I... Why would I send Seulgi?" she stuttered panickedly, making Jennie laugh harder. "I'm joking, Baby! Joking! She's in Ansan anyway!" she said happily. Irene pouted and turned to look at me. "Play safe, okay, Yeongi?" she said, suddenly sounding like my mom. I chuckled and nodded. "One pregnant girl is enough for now, Babe..." I said.

Somehow my words made her blush even redder. Irene turned to Jennie and slowly smiled.

"Come on, Jen! The food's almost ready. Help us prepare the table and call Jisoo!" Irene said. Jennie giggled and nodded, before turning back to the screen. "Bye, Daddy! See you tomorrow, okay? Love you!" she said happily, blowing me a kiss. "Love you too, Jen! Love you, Irene!" I said. Irene merely blushed. "Bye, Yeongi," she said with a smile, before hanging up.

I chuckled and sat by the dining table. Talking with Jennie and Irene already made me feel a little happier. I still wanted to meet Jisoo, but I knew I shouldn't do that for the time being. Sighing, I picked up my phone again and dialed Sana's number. Sana picked up promptly.

"Yeoboseyo? Yeoni-Oppa?" she greeted me. "Hi, Sha. Umm... Are you free tonight?" I asked her. "Hm? Yeah! Oh... Is this about the idea I have regarding your problem?" she asked me. "Yeah! Irene and Jennie told me earlier. Um, do you want to discuss it? Maybe over dinner?" I said. I could imagine her nodding cutely. "Sure, sure!" she said. "Where should we eat?" I asked her, already imagining a few good restaurants in mind.

Surprisingly, Sana laughed. Her laughter was so distinct, high-pitched and crisp, unlike any other laugh I knew of.

"Oh, Oppa! You're silly! We can't eat anywhere! The media is circling around you like predators, and you're going to eat out with a girl other than Jennie?" she said while chuckling.

I sighed. She was right, of course. I should be more aware of my current situation.

"R–Right. You're right... So... What should we do? Conference call, then?" I asked a little sorrowfully, but Sana chuckled. "No, no. Come to my place! I'll text you the address later!" she exclaimed. "Your place? You mean Twice's apartment?" I asked, a little confusedly. Sana chuckled again. "No, no! It's my new apartment with Jeongie at Songpa-gu. The media doesn't know that it's my place... Only Twice and IPG members know, so it's safe! Come here!" she said. "Aah... Alright. Text me the address. I'll take a shower and go there!" I said. "Right! See you soon!" she said cutely, before hanging up.

A second later my phone vibrated, receiving the address from Sana. I smiled and walked to the showers. I had never visited Sana and Jeongyeon's new place, so I was somewhat excited. I took a quick shower and dressed up, before walking out of the unit and taking the lift down.

Thankfully, no reporters were around any longer, but just to be careful, I put up the hood of my coat to cover my face. It was cold too, so the hood kept me warm. I crossed the street to the parking lot, entered my car, and drove to Songpa.

My GPS led me to a particular street as I reached Songpa, and I was surprised to find that the address she had given me was leading me to the Songpa Micro-Housing, an ultra-modern and minimalistic grey apartment building in the middle of the district. I parked my car next to the building, and walked inside, climbing the stairs to the top floor, where Sana and Jeongyeon's unit was located.

I rang the bell as I reached her unit, and a short while later the cute IPG Consigliere opened the door, beaming from ear to ear. Sana was looking super beautiful as usual, wearing a skimpy loose white shirt, with a bow in front, revealing her smooth shoulders and collar bone. I gulped. She looked so delicious.

"Hi, Oppa! Come in, come in!" she exclaimed.

I walked in and found a unique studio apartment unit. It was cozy and warm, and although it was definitely smaller than the usual luxury apartments in Seoul, it still felt spacious and welcoming. I felt my mouth gaping as I saw just how clean and futuristic everything in here looked.

"Wow... Nice place, Sha!" I complimented her. She giggled. "Gomawo, Oppa! We just moved in here recently," she said proudly.

I saw a lot of the couple's framed photos on the walls of the living/dining room, as well as a few photos of the two of them with Dahyun and the other Twice members. I chuckled as I saw a photo of Sana and Jeongyeon from their Heart Shaker era, and I remembered it was then when the rumor of the Jeongsa ship started sailing.

"Where's Jeongyeon?" I asked her, before remembering the other member who was very intimate with her as well. "And... And Dahyun?"

"Jeongie is in Suwon, and Dubu is in Seongnam. They left this morning and will be staying with their families this week," she said casually. I turned to look at her. "Oh? So you're alone for the week?" I asked her. She nodded and smiled. "Yeah. Dubu hasn't returned home to her family for quite a while, and Jeongie... Her parents and sister are worried for her... After the... Incident, so... Yeah, she visits them now," Sana said, sounding a little sad.

"Is she... Is she okay?" I asked her cautiously. Sana nodded.

"She's great! The bullet went through her cleanly, and, well... She's recovering pretty quickly too," she said, although I noticed that her voice was a little shaky when she spoke about her girlfriend.

I approached her and placed an arm on her shoulder, smiling warmly.

"You... You're worried for her, aren't you?" I pointed out gently. She smiled and nodded, looking down. I thought I could see her eyes getting wet. "Y–yeah... I... I was so scared when I saw her get shot. But... But... Like I said. She's doing well. Thanks for your care, Oppa," Sana said with a smile, wiping her tears.

I smiled and nodded. Sana smiled cutely and led me to sit by the dining table, while she went to the pantry to pour two cups of coffee for us.

"Black coffee, no sugar?" she asked me. "As always," I said.

I saw that the table was clean, without anything on it. Only then did I remember that Sana couldn't cook shit. Hang on. Jeongyeon wasn't around, so what should we have for dinner, then?

"Sha..." I called her tentatively. "Hm?" she answered without turning. "I... I'm kinda hungry. Have you eaten? Should we... Order in?" I asked her. She gasped. "Oh no! You're right! It's dinner time!" she said panickedly. "Yeah! We should! What are you craving?"

Sometimes I wondered why Suzy picked her as the IPG's Consigliere, knowing how clumsy and forgetful she could be sometimes, but after knowing her for more than a year, I could see that she had those leadership qualities lacking in some other members. I chuckled.

"Honestly? Ramyeon," I said, already imagining the hot and spicy, soupy dish. Sana stared at me and pouted. "Ya! I know I'm bad at cooking, but at least I can cook instant ramyeon!" she said, jokingly sounding offended. I laughed. "Okay, okay! But... Shouldn't we order some side-dishes at least? I'm... Really hungry," I said.

She laughed and nodded. We decided to order some fried chicken and kimbap, before working together to cook a pot of instant ramyeon. I wasn't exactly good at cooking, but at least I wasn't clumsy. Sana, however, was one of the clumsiest people I've ever known.

She kept spilling some water, dropping the meat she took from the freezer, and missing the leeks, mushrooms, and onions that she was cutting. After a while, I took over the cutting job from her because I was worried that she would cut herself. Somehow, Sana kept cutely laughing every time she made a mistake, and after a while I started laughing with her.

"Sorry, Oppa. I guess I'm really clumsy," she apologized shyly. I laughed. "That's why you needed Jeongyeon, right?" I said. She laughed louder and nodded.

After a while, thankfully, we managed to cook a pot of ramyeon successfully without any accident. I brought the pot to the table, while Sana prepared the kimchi, small bowls, and chopsticks. The fried chicken and kimbap had arrived a few minutes ago, so we set them up on the table and sat facing each other, looking at the delicious food with anticipation and rumbling stomachs.

"Jalmokesubnida!" we exclaimed together, and we started eating.

Sana squealed as she slurped the hot ramyeon soup, looking so adorable while doing so. I chuckled and picked up a few kimchi pieces, mixing them together with my soup. It was a simple but nice dinner nonetheless. I wondered what Taeyeon, Seungyeon, and Irene were cooking at my house in Geumho-dong. Knowing them and their cooking skills, their dinner must have been a proper feast.

"Gosh, this makes me miss Jeongie... And Minsoo too! He's a great cook, you know!" Sana said after a while. I chuckled. "Is Minsoo at Twice's apartment now?" I asked her. She nodded. "Yeah... With Jihyo," Sana said, giggling. "They're together, right?" I asked. Sana nodded. "They're so cute, those two. Both shy and reluctant, but... Ah well... They make a great couple," she said, smiling wide.

I nodded and smiled. We ate in silence for a while, busily munching the crispy fried chicken and slurping the ramyeon noodles. Suddenly I remembered something.

"Oh! Congrats on your new contract extension!" I said. Sana giggled and nodded. "Gomawo, Oppa..." she said. "I'm so happy that everything worked out in the end."

We ate deliciously, all the while making small talk and joked around. Sana talked about her relationship with Jeongyeon, how they considered going to America in the next few years to get married after being in a relationship so long. I encouraged her, saying that it was a great idea. I jokingly asked her if Jeongyeon had proposed to her, but she shook her head, saying that she didn't need her to propose, already knowing that they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together.

After dinner, we washed the dishes before sitting side by side by the dining table together. Sana took out a few bottles of hard liquor from her collection, and we settled for a bottle of good old scotch. After a few glasses of it, we both felt a little dizzy, the alcohol starting to get into our system. We were both still pretty sober, but I noticed that Sana was a little more giggly than usual. I glanced at my watch. It was past 9 pm. I needed to start talking about the reason why I visited her tonight in the first place.

"So... What's your idea? How should we deal with this problem I have now?" I asked her.

Sana placed her glass on the table and looked away for a second, collecting her thoughts and choosing her words carefully.

"Hmm... We can always file a complaint or lawsuit against Dispatch. I spoke with Hyejin earlier, and she told me she could help us with it. She knows a few lawyers that can help us. BoA-daepyonim also told Irene-unnie that SM Entertainment's lawyers are at her disposal should we ever need their help," she started, sounding so serious and calculating I started to think that she was a different person.

I stared at her and sighed, already imagining the lengthy court process, not to mention how much money we needed to pursue a proper lawsuit against Dispatch. Sana cleared her throat and continued.

"However, I think... We should avoid going into a legal battle against them in court. That'll take up so much time and give the media more reasons to keep talking about this issue, while what we actually wanted is for this news to die down quickly," she said.

I nodded. Sana sipped her drink and continued.

"So... I suggest we settle it ourselves. Let's come to Dispatch's office tomorrow and talk to the CEO, or the Editor-in-Chief, officially complaining to them and threatening them with a proper lawsuit. We can then ask them to release a follow up news that states that you and Irene are only friends, and that there was no affair whatsoever," she said. My eyes widened in surprise.

"Would they agree to that?" I asked her. She nodded.

"It happened multiple times in the past. They released a bad article about some idol, the idol or the company felt offended, they threatened a lawsuit against them, and in the end Dispatch simply released an article saying that they got the information wrongly," Sana said confidently.

I stared at her. Was it really that simple? Sana smiled as she read my thoughts.

"Oppa, Dispatch is an online, gossip-centric media company. They won't risk a lengthy lawsuit against any idol, let alone someone as powerful, well-connected, and famous as Irene-unnie. It's pretty straightforward, really," she said. "Wow... We... We can actually do that?" I asked her. She nodded and smiled wider. "Yup! If you agree, I'll ask Irene-unnie to ask the Daepyonim to send one of SM's best lawyers to come with us to Dispatch tomorrow," she said. "Tomorrow? It's Sunday, tomorrow, right? Shouldn't we go on Monday?" I asked her, but Sana shook her head. "No. Dispatch is open 24/7 on normal days, so they'll be open tomorrow too. Also, Monday is your birthday, and Jisoo-unnie's birthday too! You should celebrate!" she said.

I laughed and nodded. In my heart, I was thankful that Irene had a good relationship with BoA, and that SM Entertainment was a really supportive company, unlike YG.

"Okay. Let's go to Dispatch tomorrow," I said excitedly.

Sana nodded, then she leaned forward and stared at me.

"Right. That was my first idea. That'll settle our business with Dispatch, but there's still one more thing that we need to settle," she said.

Somehow, I knew what she was about to say.

"The fans," I said. Sana nodded.

"That's right. They won't care if we settle or not with Dispatch. All they care about is their beloved idols. Most Blinks feel hurt because the Blackpink Boyfriend is cheating and being unfaithful towards their beloved Jennie, while Luvies feel hurt and betrayed because their Queen Irene is the... Third person in your relationship with Jennie," explained Sana.

I chuckled ironically.

"Luckily ONCEs are not involved in this," I said jokingly. Sana laughed. "That would happen if anyone ever finds out about what Suzy-unnie and I did to you last year," she said. I chuckled. "Still the best blowjob ever," I blurted, and then I realised it was the alcohol talking.

Sana blushed and slapped my arm.

"Ya!" she yelled. I chuckled. "S–Sorry, Sha," I apologized, but she shook her head and giggled. "Minsoo will lead the line against us if he finds out about that," she mused.

We laughed and drank again. I stared at her, noticing that her chubby cheeks were blushing red, either from the alcohol or from my earlier remark.

"So what's your idea?" I asked her. She smiled. "You should take a picture together," she said. I stared at her confusedly. "Huh?" "You, Irene-unnie, and Jennie, should take a picture together tomorrow, then post it on your social media," she clarified. I stared at her, but a second later I understood. "Aah!" I exclaimed, nodding confidently.

That was actually a really great idea. If we post a picture of the three of us together, showing our closeness, fans would hopefully decide that the picture in Dispatch's article was taken out of context. An idea came to my mind.

"Sha, you should join us too, then!" I said. Her eyes widened. "Eeh? Why?" she asked me confusedly. I chuckled. "You're my best friend, and we will definitely spend time together in the future, sometimes probably just the two of us. We should do a preemptive move," I explained.

Sana blinked her round eyes a few times, but then she understood what I meant. Her mouth gaped and she laughed, nodding rapidly.

"I agree! That's a great idea, Oppa!" she exclaimed. I laughed and shook my head. "It was first and foremost your idea, Sha!" I complimented her. She laughed, crossing her arms. "Of course! It's Sana Minatozaki's idea!" she said smugly.

I laughed and sighed. For all her clumsiness and silliness, Sana could be really smart. What felt like the end of the world this morning suddenly turned into a solvable thing this evening.

I looked at Sana and chuckled, leaning in for a hug. Sana giggled and hugged me tightly. Somehow, the sweet scent of Sana's hair and her soft touch on my skin made me develop a boner, but I decided to push the thought away, remembering what Jennie had told me repeatedly earlier.

"Thanks, Sha. I'm glad that I have you," I whispered. She nodded. "Don't mention it, Op–hic... Oppa," she uttered and giggled.

I chuckled as I heard Sana hiccuping a few times. She was clearly intoxicated, and I was starting to feel dizzy too. Shit. Could I drive home? I knew Lisa and Rosé would be waiting for me there, and I wanted to enjoy their bodies so badly tonight, but I was afraid that it would be dangerous for me to drive home in my current state. Should I call a cab?

Sana released me and smiled. She stood and walked towards the large windows separating her living room from the balcony. The soft moonlight settled on her body, nicely framing her hourglass figure, and somehow her silhouette made my cock become even harder. Shit! Stop it, Yeoni! Jennie specifically told you not to do anything with her! Sana sighed as she stared out the window.

"It's snowing," she said. I looked up and saw that she was right. "It is. What a lovely night," I said with a smile. She chuckled. "Yeah... Too bad we're all alone... without our partners," she whispered, suddenly sounding sorrowful, then she chuckled and shook her head. "Sorry, Oppa. I shouldn't say stuff like this..." "I–It's alright, Sha... I... I understand," I stuttered, unsure of what to do.

Sana kept staring at the window, so I slowly walked to join her. She looked up as I reached her side, and she giggled as she saw my blushing face.

"Can you drive home? You look drunk," she pointed out. I chuckled and shook my head. "I... I think I'll call a cab," I uttered.

She kept staring at me, and I noticed that her eyes darted down to my crotch, undoubtedly noticing my boner. I tried to think about other thoughts to soften my dick, but somehow all I could think about was how beautiful she looked that night. Shit.

"O–Or... Do you... Want to crash here tonight?" she said. I stared at her in shock. "What?" I asked her. She blushed and looked away. "N–No, I mean... You can sleep on the sofa!" she said panickedly.

I turned to the living/dining room, and I noticed that there was no sofa around. There was only the dining table, and then... There was the bed. That was Sana's bed with Jeongyeon, and sometimes Dahyun maybe. Surely I shouldn't climb unto their bed. That was simply wrong. I looked back at her, staring at her with wide eyes.

"Sha... There's no sofa," I said, feeling stupid. "O–Oh? Oh, yes... You're... You're right. Sorry," she stuttered. "Sha, are you... Are you drunk?" I asked her. She nodded and blushed even redder. "I think I am..." she uttered, "Sorry." "N–No... It's... Alright," I said awkwardly.

We stood nervously side by side, unsure of what to say or do after our weird exchange. I stared out of the window, and noticed that it was indeed a lovely night. Slowly, Sana reached for my hand and grabbed it gently, before clearing her throat. I felt chills running down my spine.

"Are your girlfriends still with Jisoo-unnie?" she asked me softly. "Yeah. They're staying with her tonight, looking after her," I said. She chuckled. "I guess you're lonely too," she whispered.

I turned to look at her. What was she implying? Should I tell her that Lisa and Rosé are waiting for me at home? No. That would sound pretentious. I realised then that she might be saying what she said to have some sense of accompaniment, so I decided to play along.

"Y–Yeah, I guess so," I said. Sana chuckled lightly as she kept staring out the window. "Is... Is that why... You're having a boner right now?" she asked me suddenly.

I looked at her with a gaping mouth, but she kept staring outside. Her face blushed as red as an apple and she bit her lips. I didn't know how to reply to that question. My heart was beating so fast.

"W–What? I–I..." I stuttered. She chuckled. "I... I felt your boner when we hugged," she told me softly.

Slowly, Sana turned to look at me, and at that moment I could tell that her eyes were looking different. Somehow, I understood that look. I knew that being separated from Jeongyeon and Dahyun even for just one night would be torturous for her. That was what I felt right now as I was separated from Jisoo, Jennie, and Irene. Two lonely people in a snowy night, standing in the middle of an empty apartment, and I knew our defenses were crumbling ever so slowly.

"S–Sha..." I whispered. "I... We... We shouldn't, right?" she whispered, but her hands traced my waist. "Y–Yeah... We shouldn't," I said, but I too started brushing her hair.

As if put under a spell, our bodies moved in closer to each other. With trembling hands, I started caressing her long neck, suddenly imagining my cock sliding in and out of it. The memory of what happened in IPG's HQ last year returned to my mind so vividly, and by looking at Sana's beautiful eyes, I realised the same images were playing in her mind as well.

"Sana..." "Yeoni-Oppa..."

Sana's trembling hands slipped down slowly from my waist to my crotch, rubbing my bulging boner from outside my pants. She bit her lips, trying to reign in her desire. I reached for her jaw with my hand, caressing it softly. Sana closed her eyes and shuddered.

"S–Sha... We... We really shouldn't," I whispered reluctantly, noticing that the conviction in my voice was wearing down. Sana nodded slowly. "Y–Yeah... We... We shouldn't do this..." she whispered, but her body said otherwise.

Our bodies pressed against each other. She looked up, and together, we closed our eyes and kissed. Sana's tongue entered my mouth, mine twisting it deliciously. My left hand reached up to fondle Sana's large breasts, while my right reached back to squeeze her round butt. Sana's right hand was rubbing my boner rapidly, while her left caressed my chest.

We pulled back, panting for breath. Sana stared at me, her face a mixture of guilt and pleasure. I knew I had the same expression on my face too. My heart told me to run away, but my body wanted more. My body wanted her. Maybe one time is okay?

"Oppa... We... We should stop..." she whispered, but she sounded lustful. I nodded. "This is... Wrong," I whispered, but my hand reached to the bow in front of her shirt.

Sana's hand reached my belt and started unbuckling it. I tried pulling her bow off to open her skimpy shirt, but it got stuck. I noticed that she too was having trouble unbuckling my belt. I chuckled and held her hands.

"I'll do it," I said. Sana giggled and nodded.

I took off my belt and let my pants drop down to the floor. Immediately my cock swung out from my boxer, looking hungry. Sana pulled her bow slowly and seductively, letting her shirt fall to the floor, before taking off her pants too.

I took off my sweaters and shirt. We stared at each other, both in our underwear. Sana was wearing a matching strapless lacy white bra and panties, looking good enough to eat. My cock was throbbing, but my heart was pounding in my chest. Not from lust, but from guilt.

"S–Sha..." I whispered again.

She looked at me, but she didn't say anything. She pushed my body slowly to the wooden floor, and I sat down willingly. I stared at her as she straddled me, my hands reaching to support her by the lower back. She rested her arms on my shoulders, and she pulled me for another kiss.

We kissed passionately, my hands squeezing her butt. Somehow I sensed that she had been holding this desire down for a long time. Maybe... For a year and a half? Had she been unable to forget that moment we shared in the warehouse? But for as long as we became friends–best friends even–she had never shown this side of hers.

I knew she was pansexual, unlike her girlfriend Jeongyeon who was lesbian, but this was so unlike her. Sana was also famous for being flirtatious, but whenever she was with me, she was always respectful, always knowing how to keep her distance. Yet, tonight, she looked like she had been overcome with lust.

Sana clamped her long and meaty thighs, pinning my cock in between them. I let go of her lips and started kissing her jaw, her neck, her shoulders, her collarbone, before finally reaching her ample cleavage, burying my face in between them. Our breaths were getting more and more ragged, and soon, Sana started moaning.

"A–Ah... Oppa..."

I reached to unbuckle her bra, but I found that the buckle was in front. I pulled back, caressing her big boobs, before trying to open her bra. It was difficult. Sana giggled again and held my hands, unbuckling the bra for me. Her tits bounced temptingly as it was freed from the bra, her pink nipples looking so juicy. I stooped down to kiss her soft yet firm breasts, licking and sucking her chewy nipples. Sana opened her mouth and let out a sigh, moaning even louder.

"A–Ah... M–Mh... Y–Yeongi... Op–Oppa..."

She started grinding her hips, rubbing her thighs onto my cock, making me squirm and shudder. I kept sucking her tits. She was way bigger than Jisoo, even after she got pregnant and her tits grew a lot bigger. I reached back to knead Sana's thick butt, already contemplating whether or not I should fuck her asshole too tonight.

Namja.

Suddenly, Irene's words rang in my head. I immediately paused. At the same moment, I sensed Sana pausing too. We looked up, we stared at each other. We were both panting, sweat already drizzling from our faces. The faces of Jennie, Irene, and ... Jisoo... Flashed in mind. Sana's eyes were locked into mine, but I realised she was staring blankly. Maybe Jeongyeon and Dahyun's faces flashed in her mind.

"Oppa..." she whispered, sounding sorrowful. "Sha... We... " I started, but Sana understood immediately. "Y–Yeah... We really should stop, shouldn't we?" she whispered sincerely. "Before it's too late..."

I nodded, suddenly feeling really dirty and sinful. Sana slowly pulled herself up and sat a few inches away from me, taking deep breaths to calm herself. I was also trying to catch my breath. I stared at her, and I noticed that her panties were soaking wet. Did she cum earlier when I sucked her breasts?

I gulped. I would be lying if I say that I didn't want to fuck all her holes all the way until morning and experiencing her legendary blowjob at least one more time. She looked absolutely delicious, and my dick was still fully hard, but I knew I had made the right decision to stop.

"S–Sha... I'm... I'm sorry. I'm... I'm so sorry," I said. She shook her head. "No, Oppa. I'm the one who should be sorry. I shouldn't... I shouldn't have done what I did," she said, her voice trembling.

We stared silently at each other for a few more seconds, before finally Sana picked up her shirt and started wearing it. I put my cock back inside my boxer and dressed up. We got dressed silently, before standing in front of each other, feeling totally awkward.

"Y–You... Should I call you a cab home?" she asked me. I shook my head. I was feeling totally sober now. "No. I... I can drive, I think. Thanks for the offer," I said.

Sana nodded and walked to the fridge, taking two bottles of water, offering one for me. I thanked her and drank it ravenously, feeling my throat dry. I glanced at my watch. It was around 9.45. I looked up at Sana.

"W–Well... I should go now, I think... Thanks for the... Dinner and the drink," I said. She nodded, still looking awkward. "Y–yeah. Good night, Oppa. See you tomorrow," she said. "Yes, see you tomorrow," I replied.

We walked silently to the door. I wore my coat and she opened the door for me. I walked to the threshold, before turning to look at her and smiled.

"Sha," I called. "Hm?" she asked me, avoiding my gaze.

I chuckled and kissed her cheek warmly. She blushed red and looked at me, before chuckling.

"Thank you... For stopping. I wouldn't be able to resist had you insisted," I said.

Sana blushed even redder and looked down. I could hear her cute giggle.

"It was... My heart was telling me not to do it too, Oppa. So... Yeah. I guess we did the right thing. I'm... I'm sorry again," she said. I chuckled and shook my head. "Good night, Sha. See you tomorrow," I said warmly, giving her a side hug. "Good night, Oppa," she whispered cutely.

I left her unit and went down to my car. As I entered, I sighed and rested my head on the steering wheel.

"Fuck. That was a near miss," I whispered.

My boner was still fully on, but I knew I had stopped just at the right moment. I shook my head rapidly, trying to shake away the guilt. Had I carried on having sex with Sana tonight, I couldn't imagine how I would feel when I meet Jennie and Irene tomorrow.

I started my car, and I drove home, my mind blank. I reached Yangcheon-gu fifteen minutes later, and I walked up to my unit on the second floor. As I approached the unit, I saw that the lights were on inside, so Lisa and Rosé must have arrived. I chuckled and opened the door, walking inside.

"YeongYeong!" exclaimed Rosé happily. "There you are! We were starting to worry!" said Lisa, grinning wide.

I laughed when I saw them. They were drinking in my living room, and I saw a few street food packages lying everywhere. Somehow, I felt a huge sense of relief seeing these two girls. I rushed to sit in between them, flinging my arms around their shoulders and hugging them tightly.

"What were you worrying about?" I asked Lisa. She chuckled. "We were worried that you'd spend the night with Sana and we would be left here all alone like two unwanted whores," she said, not filtering her words.

Rosé and I laughed.

"But... I admire you, Yeongi," said Rosé. I raised an eyebrow. "Eh? Why?" I asked her. She chuckled. "Sana is extremely hot and beautiful, and she could be really flirty too. How did you manage to leave her house without doing anything?" she asked me curiously. "We even contemplated about betting whether or not you would fuck her tonight," said Lisa truthfully.

I laughed and shook my head, but then I paused. Sana and I didn't have sex, but to be honest what we did couldn't be considered 'not doing anything' as well. Lisa caught this and smirked naughtily.

"You two did do something, didn't you?" she asked. Rosé gasped. "Omo. Did she... Did she give you her... Magical blowjob?" she asked.

I thought for a while, and I thought I was close enough with them to tell them the truth.

"Well... We didn't have sex, but... Well... Let's just say we made out, before... Before realising that it was wrong.... And then we stopped," I said honestly.

Rosé gasped, but Lisa laughed and bumped her shoulder onto mine.

"Good job, Dude!" she said. Rosé scowled at me jokingly, before slapping my head. "Men..." she mused, before giggling. "Well, at least you came to your senses." "D–Don't tell my girlfriends, please?" I asked them sheepishly. Lisa and Rosé laughed. "Of course we won't," said Rosé. Lisa winked at me, and somehow I knew what she meant.

I chuckled and nodded. I knew I could trust these two girls. I looked up, and I saw Lisa staring at Rosé and I sharply, smiling wide naughtily. I knew what she was about to say.

"Well... Yeongi must be having an unfinished boner—I mean business—I mean boner... from earlier, right?" she deduced. Rosé laughed. "Didn't you see the big bulge in his pants when he entered?" said Rosé, suddenly reaching to grab my crotch. I jolted. "Y–Ya! Rosie!" I protested, but she giggled naughtily. "Come on, Yeongi. Let's finish that business—I mean boner—you started with Sana," she said.

With that, Rosé and Lisa stood and pulled me up. I laughed as they dragged me to my bedroom, locking the door. Rosé went to check the windows and closed the curtains.

"In case there's another Hyejin snooping around," she joked. Lisa and I laughed.

The three of us started stripping quickly, and somehow we stripped off our clothes pretty smoothly. I chuckled. It was as if the universe was telling Sana and I not to do it earlier with the constant difficulties that we faced. This time, it was supposed to happen.

Lisa and Rosé pushed me to the bed, and I willingly obeyed them. They grabbed my cock, and started giving me a double-blowjob, slobbering my throbbing and unsatisfied dick with their tongues and lips.

"Shit... I realised now just how much I missed this big cock of yours," whispered Lisa. "I envy Jisoo-unnie and Jennie-unnie... They got to fuck you right away after meeting you in Singapore," Rosé said. "I envy Irene-unnie more... She gets to fuck him everyday when we're in America," said Lisa. "Yeah... And we have to wait until the New Year to do it! Some Blackpink Boyfriend we have," protested Rosé.

I laughed and held both of their heads.

"Okay! Okay! You get to fuck me tonight, right?" I exclaimed. "Stop complaining!"

Rosé and Lisa giggled and nodded, focusing on my dick. I threw my head back as Rosé started putting my cock in her mouth, while Lisa sucked my balls with passion. They swapped positions a few moments later, and as soon as Lisa's thick lips clasped around my shaft and my dick head reached her throat, I felt my body tensing. I knew I couldn't hold back any longer.

"F–Fuck... G–Girls... I'm... I'm cumming!" I exclaimed.

I grunted, and came directly into Lisa's throat, making her gurgle and choke. Lisa pulled back while I was still squirting cum, and soon thick white liquids landed on Rosé's hair and face as she kept licking and sucking my balls.

"Fuck... You came so much," said Lisa. Rosé giggled. "He's been holding up all the way from Songpa here, right?" she said. I chuckled. "Come on, Rosie. You first," I said.

Lisa pouted jokingly, and Rosé stuck her tongue out to mock her. I laughed as I put Rosé to a doggy style position. She perked her ass up, and I spat on her asshole multiple times, before slowly inserting my cock inside her rectum, just the way she liked it.

"S–Shit... I love... Anal s–sex..." Rosé stuttered as inch by inch of my cock impaled her.

I went balls deep, before pulling out and slamming back in powerfully. I started fucking Rosé's ass like there was no tomorrow. Rosé started moaning loudly, and Lisa bit her lips, looking envious.

"Fuck, I want..." she whispered.

Lisa pulled me for a kiss, her thick lips engulfing mine. I reached to squeeze her ass, while my other hand slapped Rosé's jiggly butt cheeks.

"Ugh! Ungh... Y–Yeongi! A–Ah! Ah! F–fuck!" moaned Rosé. "S–Shit... Rosie..."

It didn't take long for Rosé to cum, squirting onto the bed, but I kept pummeling her ass. She tightened her rectum around my shaft, and I reached to squeeze her ass with both of my hands.

"F–Fuck! Rosie! Rosie! Mmh!" "A–Ah! Y–Yeongi! Yeongi! A–Ah!"

Lisa giggled and laid down next to Rosé, perking her ass up in a similar doggy style position. I started fingering her wet pussy, making squelching sounds as my fingers went in and out of her vagina. My room was filled with the moans of two cock-hungry girls. Their voices sounded so sexy, and I reached another climax.

"R–Rosie! I'm... I'm cum–ming!" I exclaimed.

I unloaded inside her rectum, filling her up as she reached another orgasm. Rosé slumped to the bed, panting, cum leaking from her asshole. I knew I had cum twice, but my cock was still not satisfied. I turned Lisa to lay on her back, and she instinctively spread her legs wide.

"Come on, Yeongi..." she whispered naughtily.

Without warning, I jammed my cock inside her pussy, while stooping down to suck on her nipples. Lisa jolted and squealed, feeling the sensation of my cock filling her insides. Her eyes and mouth opened wider and wider, until a loud moan escaped her mouth.

"O–Oh... F–Fu–uck! Y–Yeongi! Are you sure you're... N–Not getting bigger?" she moaned.

I chuckled and worked my hips even faster. Lisa's hands started gripping the bed sheets tightly. Rosé sat up and started kissing my neck while caressing my chest. I closed my eyes, enjoying the sensation, pummeling Lisa even harder.

"A–Ah... Ah... Ah! Y-Yeongi! Ah!" moaned Lisa.

Rosé reached down to play with her own clit, but I wouldn't let her pleasure herself while I was there. I slapped her hand and pushed her to lay next to Lisa, fingering her pussy quickly. Rosé squealed, turning to look at Lisa. The Thai girl pulled her friend closely and they started kissing each other noisily, their hands caressing each other's tits, pinching each other's nipples. Fuck! So sexy!

I pummeled Lisa's tight pussy even harder, making her gasp and moan. I felt her vagina walls tightening around my shaft, while the tip of my penis slammed the entrance to her womb repeatedly. Suddenly, Lisa looked at me, her body tensing.

"Y–Yeongi! Yeongi! I'm... C–Cumm... Cumming!"

With a loud scream, Lisa came, squirting her pussy juice all over the bed, before slumping back onto the bed, her body shuddering from the intense pleasure. I was close to my climax, so I jerked my cock off rapidly.

"S–Shit! Shit... Lisa... Rosie... Ugh!"

I came hard, spurting my cum all over their bodies and faces. They both closed their eyes and giggled as shot after shot of white liquid covered them, before finally I fell to the bed, panting, trying to catch my breath.

"F–Fuck, girls... That was intense!" I said breathlessly.

Lisa and Rosé giggled and kissed my cheeks and neck, rubbing my chest with their hands. I chuckled. I realised that I missed them too after not sharing a bed with them for so long.

"We should do this more often," mused Lisa. Rosé giggled and nodded. "Of course! You won't object too, right, Yeongi?" she asked me. I laughed and turned to kiss her lips. "Oh, definitely," I said, before turning to kiss Lisa. "Let's do it again." "Weekly?" proposed Lisa. Rosé laughed and shook her head. "No, no... He'll die of exhaustion if he has to fuck the both of us weekly and still has to manage his three hot girlfriends," she said. "Aw..." said Lisa, sounding disappointed. "Monthly, then? What do you say, Yeongi?"

I chuckled as I looked at these two beautiful ladies. They didn't understand me the first time.

"No, no. I mean... Let's do it again. Right now," I said.

They gasped in surprise, and instinctively they looked down, finding that my cock was still rock hard. They gasped again together, making me laugh seeing their silliness.

"Ya! Yeongi! You're still not finished?!" asked Rosé in shock. I shook my head and grinned. "I haven't cum in your mouth, haven't cum in your pussy, haven't cum in Lisa's pussy and ass..." I started a list. Lisa slapped my chest and laughed. "Oh, Yeongi!" she whispered.

With that, I sat up and gently pushed Lisa to lay on top of Rosé. The girls giggled, knowing what I wanted to do. I knelt behind them, brushing my cock on their pussies and assholes, wondering which hole I should enter first for our next round.

Hello. At first let me thank you for your blog. I mean your posts and opinion as an insider is so interesting to read, it’s like you let us see a little more in this entertainment industry. After reading some posts I can now clearly see why so many stars live hard life, often have anxiety and even suicide thoughts. I mean their life seems to be fully controlled until they become really “someone” in this industry. Does it mean that until it happens they will do anything their company want and have nothing to do. I mean even if they get hate, they should pretend like they don’t care and can’t even say something against haters. My question is so random, I’m sorry. I also wanted to know, why so many singers and idols go acting even if they know many will hate it, they know they will get comments like “idols don’t let real actors to play��. I’m not sure about c-ent as I’m new. But I saw many such comments and reactions in Korean media. So why do they do it? Will they earn more money than being a singer or? Why not to try acting then? Why do they try to become idols? I mean there are so many talented singers and trainees who want ro sing. But eventually we see that many people who debuts as idols soon or later give up singing and try acting. I was just wondering. Thank you in advance, sorry if my question is too obvious. And better late than never. Happy New Year :)

Disclaimer: The following post is informed by my own experience working in the music industry. Chinese industry practices might vary.

In Asia, the world of entertainment tends to be pretty tightly regulated. It’s generally pretty difficult to get a foot in the door and even more difficult to actually “make” it. This post is going to mostly discuss Korea and Japan’s industries, as I am most familiar with those two markets.

LET’S TALK A BIT ABOUT IDOL HISTORY!

(Skip this entire section if you aren’t interested in history.)

In 1962, Johnny Kitagawa, the CEO of the entertainment company, Johnny’s & Associates, launched Japan’s first boy band, Johnnys. While this group saw some minor popularity, it paled in comparison to the group that is often considered to be Asia’s “first” idol group, Four Leaves, who debuted in 1967.

Four Leaves was a project composed of bishounen (pretty) boys who sang and dance but didn’t play any instruments. They were hand-selected and trained by Johnny Kitagawa himself, who largely focused on the artists’ personalities, attributes, and physical characteristics.

Four Leaves’ success was so great that Johnny’s sought to replicate it, creating the first idol (aidoru in Japanese) training camp system which is the foundation of all idol companies these days. Just like idol companies today, Johnny’s selected young bishounen boys who were admitted via an audition process, and then placed them in a dorm together. There, they would train as Johnny’s Juniors (aka trainees) until they were ready to debut.

By the 1980s, Japan had quite a few idol management companies (jimusho) that wanted to replicate Johnny’s success. By that time, the idol industry had matured, and the training camps had become extremely rigorous, Olympic-style singing, dancing, acrobatics, etc. all for the sole purpose of improving stage performances. By the time SMAP debuted in 1988, the system was already in place. But what SMAP did changed the game entirely: they launched their own variety show, effectively putting themselves into every Japanese household and endearing themselves to every single Japanese housewife.

This caused their popularity to skyrocket, which in turn led to the creation of the ecosystem we now all know: the all-encompassing idol who sings, dances, and acts in tv shows, variety shows, plays, and films. Brand deals and endorsements also really took off during this time, especially with the most popular member, Kimura Takuya.

(It must be noted that SMAP became very popular not only in Japan, but also all over Asia!)

By this point, South Korea was taking notice, and by the 90s, debuted their first generation of idol groups, which included the likes of H.O.T. and Shinhwa, who all went through more or less the same style of training that Japanese idol jimushos put through trainees through.

It must be noted that during this time, South Korea was pretty invested in trying to find the right secret sauce to also debut their artists in Japan, given the mature idol market there. S.M. Entertainment succeeded in doing this with their second generation artists, BoA, Super Junior, and TVXQ, by partnering with Avex Entertainment in Japan. (They even went as far as debuting a visual kei idol group, TraxX, which was actually produced by Yoshiki from X-Japan, to capitalize on the entire visual kei market in Japan.) JYP followed suit with Se7en and Rain, and YG Entertainment debuted BIGBANG and 2NE1.

During this period of time, it must be noted that the big talk of the town was surprisingly not pop internationally - it was actually Jrock, which had a big surge of popularity in overseas markets between 2007-2009. (Hence S.M.’s desire to debut a visual kei idol band in Japan.) The Hallyu wave hadn’t really started yet, but within a matter of a few years, Kpop was suddenly the hottest new thing just about, well, everywhere.

In fact, it was so popular internationally, that by 2013, Kpop had become the #1 biggest contributor to South Korea’s GDP. It was so important to South Korea that the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism established KOCCA (the Korean Content Agency), which began heavily investing in the export of all things “Hallyu,” but especially Korean music. International industry conferences worldwide suddenly started to see the rise of Korean showcases, which took place literally everywhere. KOCCA was determined to export their idol culture all around the world.

To capitalize more on international success, companies such as S.M. Entertainment and JYP began to incorporate Chinese members into their groups. This was specifically to give them a foot into the massive Chinese market, which, until the Hallyu ban in 2017, had a massive demand for all things Kpop.

It was around this same time that TFBoys in China debuted. The industry largely considered them to be the first real homegrown mainland Chinese idol group that rose out of a similar training system used in both South Korea and Japan.

HISTORY LESSON OVER!

Why did I feel the need to explain all of this history, you wonder? Couldn’t I just answer the question in a straightforward way?

Well, not really. It’s pretty important to understand that oftentimes, in the industry, idols aren’t seen as true artists - they are actually seen more as manufactured cultural products. The more products there are (i.e. music, acting projects) the more money there is, which in turn leads to more opportunities. When they are just starting out, idols never get to pick what activities they actually participate in - especially if they haven’t yet established themselves as very successful artists.

And even when they are established, oftentimes, an idol company will push an artist to try expanding/broadening their various creative outputs with acting. Why only sell music, when you can make money through tv and film?

Add in the additional benefit of not having any risk at all involved in said tv/film project and it’s win/win for the company - because they aren’t putting up any money upfront to produce and market the project.

Companies want their idols to pursue acting gigs because it increases the market share for the artist and more opportunities for their artist to create new fans who might discover the artist through the drama or film. This tends to be a big part of the idol ecosystem, though it must be noted that not all idols do go down this route if their company determines that their music products might generate far more money than their acting products.

This is especially true for rappers in particular, whose solo musical releases might not generate as much fanfare (or as much money) as an acting gig - especially in South Korea, where there is already a very mature, established Korean hip hop genre with plenty of very established hip hop artists. (There’s also a very popular hip hop competition show, Show Me The Money, that regularly features celebrity Korean hip hop artists.)

Sometimes, it just makes more sense to take acting opportunities, as they can generate better income than music.

Talented singers sometimes might also choose to go the acting route for the same reason - also because opportunities keep coming across the desks of their managers, who sometimes talk them into the projects. Other times, it may simply be that once an idol tries their hand at acting, they realize they have a real knack for it and end up wanting to pursue more acting projects.

In any case, there isn’t a single, universal reason why idols choose to go from singing to acting, but there is a universal reason why all idols inevitably do make the switch: money.

And for companies in particular, acting projects their artists star in are 100% pure profit with zero financial risk.

In any case, quite a few artists started out in music, tried their hand at acting, and then continued to do both. We see this especially with artists such as Vanness Wu, IU (Lee Ji-eun), and BLACKPINK’s Jisoo, who are all still active in both acting and music.

I hope this massively long post was informative and also helped answer the question, “Why do idols go from singing to acting?” (I also hope I helped explain the way the idol ecosystem works and how it all started!)

Thanks for the questions and for reading.

Edit: Oops, I totally forgot to answer the question, “Why do some people become idols?”

The answer is pretty simple: it’s really hard to get into the entertainment industry, and many people see idol factories as a straightforward roadmap into a career in entertainment. While it isn’t the only way into entertainment, it often is the path many artists do ultimately choose to take.

Blackpink’s reaction to having a nightmare and their S/O comforting them after

No one asked for it, but I wanted to do this! Hope you’ll enjoy~

TW : Mention of blood, violence and death.

Lisa :

It was the worst thing that could happen to her. The crew acclaimed all the members except her. They told their love to Jisoo, Jennie and Rosé but not one speak to her or about her. Without understanding what was happening, she was in front of the CEO of YG Entertainment. And now, she was replaced by an another idol, a most beautiful, talented idol. She wasn't a part of Blackpink anymore, she became nothing to the world. She cried so much. She couldn't stop weeping.

"Lisa, Lisa! Wake up honey!" you whispered at her ear, as you saw her had spasms.

She looked at you, trying to find where she was and, noticeably, she wasn't in the office of YG Ent. So, Lisa understood that she was just in a nightmare.

"Oh god, babe, I've got a horrible dream," she told to you, while she embraced your chest.

You started to kiss her forehead then her cheeks, you listened to her quietly, trying to comfort her. When she had finished to narrate her nightmare, you stared at her, eyes in eyes.

"Lisa, listen to me. You're one of the most talented idol of this generation. You sing, dance and rap so well dear, people can't erase you of their life. You matter a lot for plenty of people."

"Thanks babe."

"Remember, I love you with all my heart."

"Me too," she responded with a kiss and a little smile.

Jisoo :

You and the member of Blackpink were the most important persons of her life. So what could be her worst nightmare? You, Jennie, Lisa and Rosé dying and she couldn't do nothing, just watching.

It was an idiot car accident. Brakes stopped working and the vehicle ran into a tree. After some second of void, she opened her eyes and see a lot of blood.

Jisoo hadn't any blood of herself on her body, but next to her, it was you, with an ugly wound who cut your stomach. She started to cry, to yell, to praise any god that you have to stay alive. She looked up and see Rosé with a wound on her head, then Jennie with her neck in a strange posture. And...Lisa, she was literally burning. Jisoo couldn't move, she could just cry and yell. She didn't even have the ability to pick up her phone and call for help.

"Love, love!"

She tried to stop the wound bleeding, she wanted to save you, save your life.

"Jisoo, wake up!"

Her hands were filled with your blood. With terror, she realised she couldn't save you nor any of her friends.

"Jisoo!"

This time, you yelled to wake up your girlfriend. She jumped, half rising, looked for the car, for the fire, for you and your wound. And then, she realised it was just a bad dream. A really bad dream.

"Oh my god Y/n, you're alive!"

"Yes, obviously I am. What happened to you?"

"I had a nightmare, a horrible nightmare."

You embraced her tight, wanted to conform her. You kissed her forehead and listened her story before peacefully come back to sleep.

Jennie:

The beginning of her nightmare wasn't that bad. You were on her lap, kissing each other, when a beep came of her phone. Usually, she'll turn off it, but this time, she wanted to know what the notification was about.

So, she unlocked her phone and saw it was a message from Jisoo with a link. She clicked on the link and saw in big letter "JENNIE, MEMBER OF BLACKPINK IS DATING". This title just freaked her out. Actually, the fact that your relationship became public didn't bother her. She wanted to tell at the world she loved you. But, because she was an idol, she couldn't have a public relationship.

She blinked and she wasn't in her salon anymore. And you weren't in her lap. No, you faced her, with tears in your eyes. You seemed really upset. Outside, there is a lot of snow, like if a lot of time was passed.

"I'm done!" you yelled at her. "I'm done with the press and I'm done with you!"

No. It wasn't happening. You wasn't breaking with her.

Before she could even answered she woke up. You were here, next to her, with your beautiful smile and your handsome face.

"Everything's alright babe?" you asked, concerned, because some tears were running on her face.

"Y/N, please, stay with me, stay with me," gasped Jennie.

"Of course baby, I'm not going somewhere. I'm here, with you and I love you."

You wheedled her during a few minutes, telling how much you loved her before gone back to sleep.

Rosé:

You and her were supposed to meet at this café. You weren't very punctual so, she wasn't worry at first. But after an half-hour, she became more nervous. You weren't replied at any of her texts or her calls. Usually, you always answered at her in the minute, but not this time.

She tried to perspective. Maybe you were on the road but your phone was off. Maybe your train was late because of some accident. It could be a lot of possibilities and she had to be calm and not to gave in to panic.

After an hour, she decided to go back to her home. You visibly didn't come. She was more anxious than angry. On the way, she saw the worst view of her entire life. You were there, but four men were here too. They beaten you ferociously, and one of them had a knife. And you were bleeding. You bleed a lot. You screamed when you see Rosé and the man who had the knife planted her on your chest.

Rosé didn't know if he killed you because she woke up, with a yell. Iimmediately you woke up, seeing your girlfriend scared and lost.

"Honey, what happened?" You asked, half awake half asleep.

"They were so much and you seemed so weak," she murmured, her whole body shaking.

"What do you talk about?"

"In my dream...I thought...I thought they killed you!"

She started to cry. You were now awake and you kissed her cheeks. You started to understand why she was that way.

"Calm down honey, I'm safe and you're safe. Look, my lips are real and alive, aren't they?"

"Yeah," she chuckled.

You wrapped her on yours blanket and continued to calm her with your lips.

Requests are open!

BlackPink’s reaction to learning that their S/O is a CEO

Jisoo:

She was scrolling through twitter on the way home after picking you up when she saw the tweet. For a moment, she just stared at the screen of her phone, confused by the tweet because that was you in the photo. Setting her phone down on her lap with the screen still unlocked, she held up her hands and said, “wait.”

You looked over at her confused, “what’s the matter, darling?”

“You’re a CEO? Of CherryPick CO. and you didn’t tell me?”

“What? Where did you get that from?”

She held up the phone to show you the tweet, “that’s you, right? same clothes and everything you are wearing right now.”

You were quiet as you looked at the picture. Your mind jumbling for a way to answer because you wanted to wait a little longer to tell her. Sighing, you rest your head against the seat, “I guess the cats out of the bag now,” you turn your head to look at Jisoo, “I am the CEO of CherryPick CO.”

“Why didn’t you tell me,” Jisoo’s head tilted.

“Because we were talking all the time about how you want to be treated like a normal person and I wanted the same. But I am not as present in the media as you are, so I thought I cold hide my identity and let you fall in love with me and not my money.”

“You thought I would use you for your money?”

“No, but I didn’t think that with the last person I dated either.”

Jisoo slid her hand across the middle seat and into yours that were in your lap. her thumb soothingly rubs circles in your palm as her eyes stay on yours, “I’m with you for you. I fell in love with you and I could care less about the money.” Jisoo leaned across and pressed her lips on yours. Her warmth causing you to melt into the kiss and give in.

Despite your experiences in the past with relationships, you let yourself trust Jisoo and she comes through with all the love in the world for you.

Jennie:

The two of you just got home and she was quick to plop down on the couch after helping you get your bags into your room. You sit down next to her on your phone as well, but as your scrolled, your eyes grew tired from the trip. You let them slide closed as you rest your head against Jennie’s shoulder, she smiles at you before going back to her phone, but as her finger slides the screen up, she sees the picture of you.

At first she was scared that they found out about the two of you, but as she read the tweet, she was more shocked by the revelation. She just stared at her screen, waiting for the words to change, but they didn’t. Even worse, everything made sense. Your long trip away that you claimed were to visit family, those cancelled dates because you had to work late that night, the random phone calls that you would always dismiss yourself to answer out of ear shot. All of it clicked.

She pulled her eyes away from the phone to watch your peaceful figure. Your eyes were shut as you mouth parted just a little bit. Your breathing was slow as you adjusted yourself and your chest was now pressed more against her arm. She had no idea what she would say to you, but she knew she would have to confront you about it.

Instead of waking you up that moment, she would ponder on why you hadn’t told her.

When you did wake up, she would try to start a casual conversation before sliding into the confrontation, where she will learn that you are a CEO and your reasoning behind not telling her. She might need a few days to process because she still felt that you didn’t trust her as much as she had thought, but with a short break, the two of you will talk again and work things out.

Rosé:

The moment she saw the tweet, she would look up at you and ask you about it, “What is this?”

She shoved the phone over your way, and it takes you a moment to focus on the text on the screen. After reading the tweet, you stutter, “W-well. Um,” a heat rushes up your neck as you scratch the back of it. Avoiding eye contact as excuses and apologies tumble in your throat, wanting to get out, but you swallow them down.

“Why wouldn’t you tell me that you are a CEO?”

“Because I didn’t want you to think of me differently,” you still can’t bring yourself to look her in the eyes.

“Why would I think of you differently? Actually, it would have been so much better if I knew this from the start. I was-” She chokes up on the words, “I was st-starting to think…”

“Starting to think what?”

“That you were cheating on me,” you stare at her in disbelief, “what was I supposed to think? You were out late a lot, going on numerous trips, and you would be very secretive about phone calls.”

Her words cause you to sink and reach for her hand as you finally meet her eyes, “I’m sorry that I made you worry like that. I didnt mean for that, Just. I was scared.”

“Scared? Why?”

“People’s attitudes change so much when they learn you are a CEO. I wanted to stay a normal person to you.”

“And you would have. You treat me as a normal person, why wouldnt I do the same for you?”

She slips her other hand onto your cheek as she looks deep into your eyes. You follow through and lean forward, her lips grazing hers before you pull away, “I’m sorry. I promise to not keep something like this from you again,” then you finally let her kiss you.

Lisa:

Upon seeing the tweet, Lisa couldn’t help the giggles that escaped her lips.

“What’s funny babe?”

“my fans on twitter think you are a CEO, but you wouldnt keep something like that from me,” she began giggling again, but when you nervously coughed, her lips fell in confusion, “you wouldnt right.”

“Lisa-”

“Oh my god, you did. You are a CEO. Why havent you told me? We have been together for almost a year now.”

“Wait,” you stumble as you watch her get up and start to walk away. Pushing your self off of your seat, you head towards her and stop her, “let me explain.”

She pulls away from you and glares at your hand, “explain what? You told me you worked in that coffeeshop.”

“That wasn’t fully a lie,” Lisa raises an eyebrow at you, “my company is partnered with them.”

She huffs and turns away from you again, but you were quick and laid your hand on her shoulder. Her head shifts to look at your hand before she looks at your over her shoulder.

“Please, let me explain and then you can decide what to do.”

She watches you for a moment before she lets out a sigh and shifts her weight onto her right leg, resting her hands on her left hip. You wait for confirmation from her, but she just stays silent.

You take her silence as a yes and start explaining. You tell her how you were worried how she would treat you and your past experience with other relationships where you were straight up with the person and they used you for your money. Her eyes soften as you continue on about losing friends and feeling lonely and then she came along. Lisa had treated you like a normal person and you feel for that fast and you wanted to keep that feeling for forever.

Lisa during the explanation had turned back towards you and by the end of it, pulled you into a hug, her lips grazing your cheek before she pulled away, “I understand. I really do, it’s just a lot to process,“ you nod your head along with her words, “I think maybe we should take a short break from each other, because my anger is still there and I want to talk to you with a clear head.”

iKON Reaction To A New Girl Member

Jinhwan:

I think Jinani would be a little concerned for the girl since she’s entering a boy group. He would try to talk to YG as the oldest and persuade him to think clearly because this is a REAL big change. iKONICS might get a little outraged and some might throw hate on the poor girl due to jealousy. But Yang is very clear that he wants the girl in the group.

When she arrives at the dorm, he would smile and try to make sure she’s comfortable. The girl would awkwardly sit on the couch and the older line would make small talk with her. It’s clear on her face that she’s very uncomfortable about the whole thing and doesn’t want to be in the situation. But here she is and Jinhwan would learn how to get used to it. He would definitely glare and scold the 2 maknaes if they are showing their displeasure because in the end of the day, she’s just another one of them who wants to live her dream. Being a girl is just the problem but she couldn’t help that.

Yunhyeong:

Ah, mama Song. Since we know he takes good care of the boys like their mother, he would definitely welcome the new member with open arms. But when he found out it was a girl, he would stop and be blank for a hot second before pulling a confused face. It would keep him up at night, thinking and worrying about her. Like Jinhwan, he has the same worries and concerns regarding this new addition, a female. The two oldest would talk late one night with a glass of wine and would make sure that they would treat the new member good. They both know that they were once like her and it would be wrong to treat her differently because when they were in her shoes, they were very desperate to debut and would take any chance. But he still isn’t sure about whether YG is making a mistake or not.

However, once he sees her, he would be all over her. He would ask her if she’s hungry or if she’s thirsty. He learns she’s a 97-liner and he could see how scared and unhappy she was. She was scared because, hello, she’s debuting under a boy group and would probably get hate on and called a ‘whore’. She was unhappy because she was supposed to debut with BLACKPINK but she didn’t get along with Jennie. Yunhyeong constantly reassured her that the boys are here for her and will help her with anything. She can think of them as her brothers rather than just co-workers.

Bobby:

Same with the other 2, he’s concerned and not very pissed off. But he’s still quite upset with the sudden addition and especially since she’s a girl. Jiwon has stated that he thinks too much of a problem and end up creating more problems and more problems after that. He would worry about iKON’s image and he would eventually think about the haters who would hate on the girl. He lost hours of sleep just thinking about the issue and he is not sure how things would go from here. He’s always seen iKON as a hip-hop boy group, not a co-ed. Jiwon would think it’s unfair that she gets an easy ride to debut when they all worked very hard to get where they are.

But once the girl enters the dorm, he would freeze up and just stare at her. Bobby’s known to be very awkward and he doesn’t really know what to do. Does he smile at her? Does he just remain stoic? The girl has to really initiate anything between her and Bobby because he sure isn’t going to do anything. I think he’d be very self-conscious with everything he does because he thinks it would be rude with a girl around and disrespectful. But really, Bobby isn’t really mad about the whole thing. As long as iKON continues to make music and she puts in her efforts, he doesn’t care who he’s working with.

B.I:

Oof, he’s pissed. To be honest, I think he’d be a brat about it. Normally, Hanbin is a very nice person and very caring towards others that he puts them first before himself. But B.I, is very strict and very formal. Once YG told the group about it, he scoffed and just glared at the CEO, not really saying anything. The members were scared of B.I’s glare but the CEO disregarded it as his opposition about the whole idea. The boys looked at each other and knew that B.I was going to get rid of this girl one way or another. He’s very sensitive to things he doesn’t like and the sudden addition to the group would make him feel like iKON isn’t enough. Like he didn’t work hard enough for the group. But he also sees this as a challenge. To prove to YG that he can handle anything because he’s the great B.I. Honestly, the whole thing comes down with his pride. As a man, his pride gets easily hurt and he’s very upset and he’s going to make sure everyone knows it.

The moment that doorbell rung, he stands up with his arms crossed and staring, more like glaring, at the door. The girl is taken aback by the hateful gaze on her and she feels chills. Jinhwan pinches Hanbin and silently warns him to stop it. Once everyone gets seated on the couch, he introduces himself as, “I’m B.I. I’m here to make music so I don’t have time to dilly-dally around.” The boys roll their eyes because whaat Hanbin said was a complete lie to just make himself look tough. But the girl nervously gulps and stares at the floor, lips trembling and eyes shaking. That moment, the boys don’t see him as the Dumbin they have loved. They saw him as B.I who knows what he wants and will destroy anything to get it.

DongDong:

This baby, I think, is the only who’s kinda excited. Donghyuck is a very bright and friendly person who loves to make new friends. Yes, he’s sometimes shy but his excitement for another member of his family overshadows that. Of course, he was very confused and blank about the whole thing but realizing that he was going to have a sister makes him so excited. Yes, he has a sister in real life but he doesn’t see her often but another sister who he was going to see all the time made him so happy. He would very thrilled to have another person in the group because he believes that it would give the group a fresher look.

Dongdong was the one who opened the door and he shot her a smile before ushering her inside. The girl was clearly shaking and trembling so he wraps an arm around her, telling the guys she was here. He excitedly introduces himself and tells her that he’s looking forward to working with her. Out of the 7, he was the only one smiling at her and he blinked pointedly towards Bobby because Hanbin was glaring this girl down and Dongdong didn’t want this girl to be uncomfortable at just being here for less than an hour. I feel like the girl would trust Dongdong the most, even when the boys are comfortable with her, because to her, he’s always going to be that one person who accepted her when nobody did.

Ju-Ne:

Well, this kid’s also a brat. He’s immature about this type of thing and he would question YG so hard until the CEO’s glare shuts him up. But to him, I feel like he doesn’t really like her due to how easy she got in, regardless her gender. Even if it was a boy, he would still act like this. The group is his everything and he knows that something will happen once YG announces her arrival. Like the rest, he’s more concerned about the future of the group and how she would impact the public’s view on them. Junhoe would be very protective of the group and he’d be damned if something would hurt it.

When she enters the dorm, he curls his lips and looks her up and down, trying to get a good read on her. Without him knowing, he would probably blurt out something so sarcastic that it would hurt her feelings. He wouldn’t really care about that at the moment because there in front of him, stood his future. You bet he’s going to be pointing out every wrong thing she’s doing like, ‘No, you’re not doing it right. Bend your knee more.’ ‘God, get on with the melody and the beat.’ ‘You sound like a dying duck.’

Chanwoo:

He’s our baby fetus that isn’t really sure about girls yet. Boys his age would probably be experts but Chanwoo’s been training since he was young so he was still awkward around females because he hasn’t interacted with a lot. The news would hit him pretty hard because he’s still trying to fit in with the group and he doesn’t want another member to get used to. Of course, like every maknae, he’s scared that she would take his title and he would get less lines than now. Chanwoo isn’t happy and he will help his leader to get rid of this member.

As the girl introduces herself and makes her age known, Chanwoo becomes less upset. But that doesn’t mean he’s thrilled to have her, either. This boy wouldn’t say anything but just glare at her and make her as uncomfortable as possible. There will be a time that he would get used to her but not now. However, Chanwoo would slowly warm up to her because of her situation. Like her, he was thrusted into a group that already knew each other and had some members not like him. I think Chanwoo would slowly start to accept her because of how similar their situations are. Plus, that means another playmate and another person to prank.

On a modest stage inside a tent in downtown Los Angeles, the four members of the South Korean girl group Blackpink assume a diamond formation and aim their fingers like guns at the audience as they launch into the chorus of their breakout hit, “Ddu-du Ddu-du”: “Wait till I do what I ... Hit you with that ddu-du ddu-du du!”

It’s the afternoon before the Grammys at Universal Music Group chairman/CEO Lucian Grainge’s annual showcase, where he presents the company’s prospective superstars to a crowd of record executives and industry types. (Past performers have included Ariana Grande, Halsey and Shawn Mendes.) With their intense choreography, dance-heavy beats and Clueless-esque high-fashion looks, the four women offer the kind of bells-and-whistles pop production that makes them an anomaly not just on today’s lineup, where rappers like 2 Chainz and Lil Baby abound, but also on the charts, where women like Grande serve up their divadom with an extra dose of realness.

The showcase marks Blackpink’s first stateside performance, though the band made history long before: “Ddu-du Ddu-du” became the highest-charting single by a Korean girl group on the Billboard Hot 100 when it peaked at No. 55 last June, and this April the act will be the first Korean girl group to play Coachella, before embarking on a North American arena tour. “Ddu-du Ddu-du,” sung mostly in Korean, is a boastful warning to those who underestimate Blackpink, with a hook (meant to imitate the sound of bullets flying) that’s also a canny invitation to non-Korean listeners -- anyone can sing the words. The buttoned-up UMG crowd seems a little unsure, but also intrigued: Just as Blackpink’s Jennie -- soft-spoken in person, but onstage a fierce singer and rapper -- slides into a rat-tat-tat flow in the second verse, more and more audience members whip out their phones to capture video.

There’s no longer any question that K-pop is happening in America. BTS, the seven-member South Korean boy band, scored two No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 in 2018 and became the first K-pop group to sell out an American stadium when it played New York’s Citi Field in October. Yet despite the group’s visibility here, K-pop remains somewhat detached from the mainstream: It receives relatively little top 40 airplay despite fan-army pressure on radio stations, its artists rarely tour with non-K-pop acts, and outside of its intensely passionate fan groups, K-pop stars hardly drive the wider “conversation” that someone like Grande can dominate with a single tweet.

Blackpink represents Korean music’s latest, greatest hope at breaking out of the American K-pop box. The group believes its multinational identity gives it global appeal: Sweet-voiced Jisoo, 24, is a South Korean native; buoyant rapper Lisa, 21, is from Thailand; guitar-playing Rosé, 22, grew up in Australia; and Jennie, 23, was born in South Korea but spent some formative years in New Zealand. “You don’t have to understand Korean to understand the music, the visuals, the vibe,” says Jisoo, through a translator. (Rosé and Jennie are fluent in English; Lisa alternates between English and Korean during our interview.) “We’ve got so much Korean culture and so much Western culture in us,” adds Rosé, her Australian accent still pronounced.

And though occasional English lyrics already pepper their tracks, Jennie notes that recording all-English songs is something they “definitely want to do” in the future. (They’re focused on making their debut album first.) Even their sound -- an omnivorous fusion of fist-pumping EDM and booming hip-hop beats with flashes of house, ’80s pop and harmonica-driven folk -- seems conceived for the widest possible audience. “I was immediately drawn to their fierce and empowering energy,” says Dua Lipa, who asked the group to guest on last year’s bilingual banger “Kiss and Make Up.” “They are not just giving you hit songs -- they are sending a message that resonates beyond the lyrics.”

Last fall, Blackpink signed to Interscope Records, which will serve as both a creative and business partner to YG Entertainment, the group’s Korean home and one of South Korea’s three main music companies along with SM Entertainment and JYP Entertainment. These companies serve as label, management firm and production studio, controlling almost every aspect of their artists’ careers. Interscope chairman/CEO John Janick says that YG’s leadership -- Hyunsuk “YG” Yang, its founder, and Teddy Park, Blackpink’s main producer and creative director -- “runs the show,” but the relationship is collaborative: Sam Riback, Interscope’s pop-rock A&R head, has made multiple trips to YG’s Seoul headquarters and “has been sending them lots of different ideas,” according to Janick. “Our goal,” he says, “is to amplify what YG has been doing globally.”

If Interscope can help turn Blackpink into a truly global superstar act, the partnership could become a model for other labels looking to invest in K-pop and even pave the way for joint imprints. “This deal could be a benchmark,” says YG’s Joojong “JJ” Joe, who heads the company’s U.S. operations from a small house near Los Angeles’ Echo Park. It will also confirm Interscope’s foresight about K-pop. In 2011, the label signed the group Girls’ Generation during one of the earlier waves of K-pop imports, when artists like BoA and Wonder Girls worked with Western producers and companies.

At the time, those artists barely made a dent on the mainstream charts, and their backers took a hit: Despite high-profile promotional appearances, Girls’ Generation’sThe Boys LP sold only 1,000 copies in the United States during its first week in 2012, according to Nielsen Music. Since then, however, streaming platforms have made it easier for fans to discover and support Korean music, while the growth of social media has also allowed them to forge deep connections with artists everywhere. “In this era, people find their music and their talented artists on the internet,” says Susan Rosenbluth, senior vp at AEG Presents/Goldenvoice, who helped book Blackpink’s North American tour and notes that K-pop’s stateside audience “does not follow along ethnic lines.”

To Janick, the success of Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s chart-topping Latin hit, “Despacito,” aided by a Justin Bieber remix, made English-speaking listeners more open-minded in general to music in other languages. “We’re going to have hits from all different territories -- more of them, and more often than we’ve seen in the past,” he says.

But the onus isn’t just on listeners to embrace Korean music -- it’s on industry gatekeepers too. At the UMG showcase, the reaction to Blackpink is enthusiastic, but it feels muted compared with the rousing ovation the crowd gives classic-rock revivalists Greta Van Fleet, whose 2018 debut album was notoriously panned by some critics as derivative. The response to Blackpink’s Interscope deal, however, suggests that attitude could change.

“So many artists on our roster started calling, saying, ‘I want to work with these girls.’ Radio stations were asking when new music was going to be out,” says Interscope executive vp business development Jeremy Erlich, who facilitated early conversations between the label and YG (he and Joe attended business school together). “The industry’s ready. When the music comes out, I don’t think there’s going to be many people saying, ‘This is just a fad.’”

The day before the showcase, the ladies of Blackpink are ensconced in a hotel suite high above downtown L.A. Lisa, dressed in a gray fleece and a checkered coat, spies the Hollywood sign through a corner window and bounds off a couch for a closer look. Her bandmates, cozied up in brightly colored sweatshirts and cardigans, admit they weren’t expecting Los Angeles in February to be so chilly. During some rare downtime the previous day, they went shopping in Santa Monica. “It was supposed to be for fashion,” says Jennie, “but we ended up just grabbing anything that was warm.”

This is Blackpink’s first trip to L.A., but it has been almost a decade in the making. The group’s members came to Seoul from all over the world starting in 2010 to take part in YG’s rigorous recruitment and training process. The company and its competitors hold tryouts both within and far beyond Korea (Rosé traveled to Sydney from her home in Melbourne), seeking recruits who are typically preteens or teens, ethnically Korean and fluent in the language, though these qualities are not mandatory. Lisa, who auditioned in her native Thailand in 2010, didn’t speak any Korean when she began training in Seoul in 2011.

For all four women, joining YG meant enrolling in a kind of full-time pop-star academy that Jennie calls “more strict than school” and that Rosé likens to The X Factor with dorm rooms. For 12 hours a day, seven days a week, the future members of Blackpink -- along with, by Jennie’s estimate, 10-20 other aspiring singers who cycled through the project -- studied singing, dancing and rapping, taking part in monthly tests designed to identify their strengths and weed out subpar trainees. “Somebody would come in with a piece of paper and stick it on a wall, and it would say who did best, who did worst, who’s going home,” recalls Jennie, whom YG initially steered toward rapping because she spoke fluent English. “You get a score -- A, B, C,” Lisa explains. “Lisa would always get A’s for everything,” adds Jennie with a laugh.

The process was lengthy. Before Blackpink debuted in 2016, Jennie spent six years in training, Lisa and Jisoo five and Rosé four. For the members who had left behind life outside South Korea, the pace of training on top of the culture shock was sometimes tough. “I’d call my parents crying,” recalls Rosé. “But as much as it was hard for me to cope with all of that, it made me more hungry. I remember my mom would be like, ‘If it’s so hard for you, just come back home.’ But I’d be like” -- she mimics a surly teen’s glare, much to the others’ amusement -- “‘That’s not what I’m talking about!’” Lisa credits her future bandmates with easing her transition. “Jennie would speak English to me, and Jisoo helped me out with my Korean,” she says. Rosé was the last of the bunch to enter training, but she remembers the four of them bonding during an all-night jam session when she arrived. “We just clicked,” she says.

That’s clearly still the case: Rosé sometimes puts her hand on Lisa’s knee when translating for her, and at one point Jennie and Jisoo huddle close together to silently adjust one of their necklaces, displaying the intimacy of close friends. “We don’t really have a day off,” says Lisa. (Once every two weeks, Rosé clarifies.) And because their families are so far-flung, they often spend their time off with each other anyway. “We’re stuck together,” says Rosé, laughing.

While K-pop companies have a reputation for packaging groups assembly line-style, Blackpink’s members insist they have plenty of creative input, despite having no official writing credits on their tracks. Park plays them music he’s working on and “really tries to put our thoughts into our songs,” says Jennie. “He really gets his inspirations from us.”

“It’s important as recording artists that they actually truly own their songs,” says Park. The women all make suggestions about who should sing what, and if a part doesn’t feel right to someone, he will make adjustments. “He doesn’t just bring us a song, like, ‘Go practice,’” says Rosé.

Besides, the members of Blackpink have another creative outlet: Last fall, YG announced that they would all release solo material, starting with Jennie, whose debut single, “Solo,” topped Billboard’s World Digital Song Sales chart in December. Though the music is still created and put out by YG, the idea that group longevity and solo success aren’t mutually exclusive is a radical development in girl-group history -- one that Janick says only “makes the brand stronger.”

Stars who come through companies like YG are called “idols” in Korea and have historically been expected to maintain a squeaky-clean image. When Blackpink debuted, Jennie says YG was very selective about its promotional appearances: “We were trained to be a little more...” “Closed in?” Rosé suggests.

“Closed in” is exactly what the outspoken women ruling the U.S. charts now, from Grande to Halsey, are not -- they make deeply personal, even raw, music. But while Blackpink may well find success catering to an audience craving its kind of TRL-era pop spectacle -- Interscope’s Erlich calls the group “the modern Spice Girls” -- lately the band has been less concerned with appearing perfect, both onstage and off. “We always wanted to be out there, to be more true to ourselves and a little more free,” says Jennie. “Even we can get things wrong sometimes. We want to just show them the real us.”

Jennie and Lisa do just that when I ask how they expect to be received as rappers in America. Lisa lets out an embarrassed groan, withdrawing into her fleece. She has loved hip-hop since childhood and is obsessed with Tyga (“I love his swag,” she says, blushing). But she and Jennie seem well aware that a group of Asian women adopting a style pioneered by black American artists might be a hard sell for some stateside listeners who are keenly attuned to debates about cultural appropriation.

“Me and Lisa don’t talk about it out loud, but I know we have this big pressure,” says Jennie, who adds that she studied artists like Lauryn Hill and TLC when she first started rapping. She looks across the room at Lisa: “She’s going to kill it.” Lisa just scrunches up her face.

That kind of vulnerability may be what ultimately endears Blackpink to an American pop audience. “The artists that are the most successful in these situations are really authentic with how they can relate to a coming-of-age experience” in their music, says Goldenvoice’s Rosenbluth. “There’s a certain amount of authenticity to Blackpink that I really love. The dedication is heartfelt.”

Back at the showcase, the band finishes its set with the reggaetón-tinged “Forever Young,” featuring an intricately choreographed, hair-flipping dance break. As the beat reaches its booming climax, the bandmembers whip toward each other and strike a statuesque pose with their hands on their hips, just in time for the music to stop. They hold still for a moment as the lights dim, then drop their arms and turn toward each other, catching their breath and grinning like four young women who can’t quite believe they’re here.
