Starred Up

Deen, a seven year old boy, arrives in Korea with his mother Mia. With a strong determination to raise her son properly, Mia ensures Deen lacks no love in his life. In her spare time, Mia is a huge fangirl of the Korean boy group, TNT. But in an unexpected twist of fate, the mother-son duo end up being the neighbors of D3, another legendary boy group, which happens to be TNT's biggest rival. D3 consists of the short tempered Taewon, gentle Joon Jae and the goofy Jan. On top of that, Mia is hired as the personal designer for TNT, which consists of the charismatic leader Soo-Yon and the playboy maknae Cheng. Despite the rocky start, Mia and her son grow closer to all the members of both the groups. With time, the members realize they have fallen in love with the same woman, disrupting each group's dynamics. Furthermore, the origins of the hostility between the two groups resurface, making everyone involved question the decision they made a decade ago. As secrets unfold, the members vie for Mia's affections, Deen observes that she has eyes only for one of them. But which one of them will she choose?

Cheng-Strange Girl

Mia looked mortified.

'Oh no,' she said. 'Ugh! I'll have to get new clothes.'

'Wait here,' I ordered. 'Don't go anywhere. I'll be back.'

Before Mia could say anything, I walked away towards the reception.

'Hi,' I smiled at the receptionist. 'Can I talk to the manager?'

A few minutes later, the manager came in.

'Good afternoon Mr. Park Cheng,' he greeted. 'What can I do for you?'

I leaned over.

'Manager Shim,' I said. 'I have this lady friend, who spilt wine on herself. Could you get her some clothes from the store and give her a private room to change?'

Manager Shim did not ask further questions. He knew a lot of my lady 'friends'. But guests' privacy came first. He ordered his staff to bring some clothes and book a room. I went back to the bar, where Mia was waiting.

'Follow me,' I motioned and led her to the room upstairs. A few minutes later, a staff brought in arrays of clothes to choose from.

'Choose,' I said.

'These look expensive,' she said. 'I can't take them.'

'I'll pay for it,' I said causally. Mia shook her head.

'I'm sorry,' she said. 'I can't take them. I don't like people buying expensive things unnecessarily.'

'Look if it's about money,' I said. 'Don't worry. I'll pay for it. You helped me out back there anyway. Think of it as repayment of a debt.'

'These clothes are more than 145,000 won,' she said. 'Your debt isn't worth that much. Sorry, but I can't accept this.'

With that she bowed and scurried out.

'Hey!' I called out to her. I followed her till the lobby but a bunch of fans gathered by then. They surrounded me for autographs. I tried to find her but she vanished. She was probably waiting at the car, I thought. I turned to the fans, posing for pictures and giving autographs. Finally, after they left, I headed towards the car. But Mia wasn't there. Only my chauffeur, Dong Dae-Shin was there.

'Chauffeur Dong, did that new fashion designer come here?' I asked.

'I saw her walking towards the bus,' he said. 'She probably took the bus back to the studio.'

Strange girl, I thought. I checked my watch. It was almost 5 pm. I should be heading to the dinner...
