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? Note: Please note that the cover is not my original one. This is simply a random fanart I got on the internet. I'll upload an original cover as soon as its ready! Thank you for understanding.

Cheng-You are cheating on me!

You are late,' Re-on complained as I walked in. We had a private bar, all to ourselves. Being public figures, it was impossible for most of us to date publicly. In this case, break up publicly. Media and netizens would tear us apart.

Re-on leapt over to kiss me. She playfully took my hands and looked at me.

'So, I cleared my schedule for today,' she said flirtatiously. 'I booked a room for us.'

I was torn. To go to the room or break up? Going to the room sounded tempting. But even I had a limit of debauchery.

'Room does sound tempting,' I said sheepishly. 'But I don't think we should do this.'

Re-on's playfulness was gone. 'What are you talking about?' she demanded.

'We should break up,' I said unabashed. 'My schedule is getting busier and you will be in trouble if anyone finds out about us. So let's break up.'

Okay, that was an excuse. I just wanted to get rid of her.

'You...you used me?' She was almost crying. I really hated when women cry.

'Used you?' I was outraged. 'I made it very clear to you from the very beginning that this was a fling. You said you were okay with it!'

'I thought you started to love me!' she cried. 'I even made us couple rings!'

Huh?

'Look,' I said calmly. 'I never loved you. I never said I loved you. In fact, as I said from the very beginning, it was only a fling. Both of us are idols. Both of us have needs and that is all we were.'

I looked directly in her eyes and said, 'I don't love you.'

'Excuse me.' Someone was knocking the door. It sounded like a female's voice. I went over to open it. It was the new fashion designer, Mia.

'I got the-'

She broke off as soon as her eyes landed on me. Her eyes widened and she turned bright red. Clearly, she was our fan.

'H-h-h-h-here are...' she stuttered as she held up my duffel bag.

'Thank you Mia,' I said. 'Wait here. I'll be back in a while.'

I took the bag from her. She nodded and silently left. I closed the door and turned to Re-on, who was still standing there, shocked.

'Oh so you're having an affair with that girl,' she sneered.

'What?'

'You are cheating on me!'

I will never figure out how taking a duffel bag from someone is equal to having an affair.

'Think whatever you want,' I said, irritated. 'We're done.' I turned to leave.

Mia was standing outside the bar, waiting. She turned red again on seeing me.

'Let's go,' I snapped at her. She was startled but didn't ask any questions.

'HEY YOU BITCH!' Re-on screamed from behind us. We turned around to see her storming towards us carrying a glass of wine. I was ready. I held up my hands to block her but she splashed the wine at Mia.

Mia was shocked at what just happened. Her white jacket was stained yellow and wine was dripping from her hair. Wiping her face, she looked at Re-on with disbelief. Re-on was beside herself in fury.
