None of the group members had been to Bang PD's new house. He had moved into a mansion just outside of Seoul earlier in the year, just before he had moved BTS into their current apartment. The boys planned to dress in stylish clothes to attend Bang's dinner. They would wear ripped jeans with statement jackets and skinny ties or graphic t-shirts. Some of the pieces were borrowed from their recent video DNA.

Sun-Hee knew what the boys were wearing but wasn't sure she had anything that could complement their style. She had pulled out a black dress and a red dress to decide between, thinking they might be the best she could do. 

She hadn't had time to go shopping because she had been busy with school all week. She had extra work to do because she had missed her classes on Monday. She had received an A on the poem that Namjoon had helped her with. But now she was working on her second poem for the class. She also had a test early next week in Finance that she needed to study more for. 

Sun-Hee had also written up her report about the concert for her 'internship'. She had so much to say about how wonderful the concert was and the people that were there. She wrote about the songs, the dances, the singing, the pyrotechnics, the security, the on-stage water fight, basically the whole experience. Big Hit had featured her article on their social media accounts without using her name. It was simply authored by 'New ARMY'.

After taking a shower, putting on light make-up, and curling her hair, it was time to decide on an outfit.

There was a knock on her door. Sun-Hee threw on her robe and went to answer it. She opened the door to find Hobi holding a garment bag. He had a giant smile on his face. "I got you a preeessssent, Pretty Girl!"

Hobi came in and started to unzip the bag. "I called my sister earlier this week and told her what we were wearing to the dinner and asked if she had a suggestion for an outfit for you. She is so amazing with fashion. And this just arrived! It is gorgeous, you will love it!" 

Hobi held out a breathtaking graphic dress that Sun-Hee loved immediately. It had the same playful style as the men's outfits but it was also pretty and unique. Sun-Hee tried it on and it fit her perfectly. Hobi helped her pick out some white plain Ked tennis shoes to wear with it. 

She hugged Hobi, "Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love it so much!" Then she narrowed her eyes at him but kept her hands on his shoulders, "By the way, the bills for all that furniture you bought never arrived. I told you that was too much for you to buy it for me."

Hobi playfully made a sad face, "You wouldn't deny me the joy of buying you things would you?!" He shook his head and made a 'tsk tsk tsk' sound.  "You seem like such a nice girl, don't take away the joy I get from giving you presents."

Sun-Hee raised her eyebrow at him, "You barely knew me when you bought all that furniture."

Hobi looked her in the eyes, "I may have just met you but I loved you already." Then he gave her a big smile, "That was such a fun day! We need to go shopping together soon, we'd have so much fun!"

Sun-Hee smiled, "I would love that. And thank you for all the gifts, I love them all. But this dress most of all. You are the best Hobi." She planted a big kiss on his cheek.

After another big hug, Hobi and Sun-Hee headed up to the penthouse to pick up the rest of the men. But when the elevator door opened they were all there. Hobi and Sun-Hee joined them to head down to the parking garage. Everyone complemented Sun-Hee on her outfit. 

Jungkook pulled her back to him and whispered in her ear, "You look amazing." He especially liked what he called the 'soul bonding' cut outs on the sides and placed his hands there, slipping his fingers just under the edge of the dress.

When they arrived at Bang PD's house there were more people there than they had anticipated. Not only were the managers from Big Hit there and the glamour photographer and crew but Bang had invited several of the company CEO's that had offered endorsement deals  to BTS over the last week. Big name CEO's from Samsung, Hyundai, LG, in addition to representatives from some American companies like Coca Cola and others. 

When they saw all the people at the house, Jungkook let go of Sun-Hee's hand and gave her a look of regret. They wouldn't be able to touch in front of these people. She squeezed his hand a bit before also letting go.

Sun-Hee noticed immediately that there were almost no women at the party. She was used to that in her Finance classes but at a party it felt strange. In the giant crowd she could only see two other women. It was a sea of dark suits, and then the pop of color from the BTS members. A Big Hit photographer was there to take pictures. He knew he wasn't allowed to take Sun-Hee's photo and she appreciated him motioning her to move out so he could photograph the boys. 

The mansion was in an ultra modern style with very boxy shapes and a lot of concrete. There were giant glass windows looking out on a forest behind the house. There appeared to be a balcony out back looking over the swimming pool and manicured yard.

Bang PD came right over and excitedly greeted BTS. The boys all bowed to him and greeted him warmly. Bang especially called out Sun-Hee for her photoshoot idea. "And the celebrated guest of the evening! Sun-Hee, welcome to my home. This celebration is only possible because of you tonight."

Sun-Hee bowed to Bang PD, "Thank you so much." The boys were all glad that Bang PD was giving Sun-Hee the credit she deserved for the photoshoot ideas. They all loved her so much and were glad when others appreciated her too.

Bang took BTS around and introduced them to some of the CEO's and company representatives. Sun-Hee followed along for a bit but then went to find a drink.

She asked the bartender for a sparkling water and he poured it into a champagne flute. Sun-Hee went out on the balcony to look at the view of the forest.

The boys moved from one group to another, smiling, bowing, shaking hands. Many of the men told BTS how much their daughters and sons loved them. The CEO of major electronics company, Koo Li-Lang, asked the boys, "Where is that lovely young lady who came in with you? I was hoping to meet her also."

None of them liked that question, but Namjoon was the one that answered, "Hmmm, she is probably around here somewhere. She is a bit shy of meeting new people. We won't be introducing her to many people tonight." They all gave tight smiles and moved on to the next group. What they didn't know is that Mr. Koo was arranging his own way to meet Sun-Hee.

After the cocktail hour was over, everyone went in to sit down for dinner. The dining room had multiple long dining tables set with white linen and centerpieces with gorgeous colorful hand blown glass balls. Name tags marked the seats so everyone coming in needed to find their name in order to find their seat. As everyone moved to the dining room, the BTS boys hung back with Sun-Hee and regrouped before going in.

Namjoon asked Sun-Hee how she was holding up. She nodded and said, "Fine, I've been to fancy parties before but the ratio of men to women is usually a little more balanced. I have to say it is a lot more fun being here with the seven of you than with the stuffy people in California. I haven't felt judged or looked down on like at the California parties."

Jin reached out for her hand. He, of all people, knew what she was remembering. "Let's go eat dinner then we can leave shortly after if we want."

They all went in to the dining room. Most people were already seated so they only needed to look at the name tags on the empty seats. Sun-Hee found her seat and was glad to see that one of the few women in the room were sitting across from her. The man sitting to her right introduced himself as Koo Li-Lang, CEO. He leaned in a little close and put his hand on her back while introducing himself. His eyes looked at her like she was part of the dinner and she didn't like that at all. She didn't give her name but just said, "It is nice to meet you."

Salads were brought out by waiters and handed out. The salads had jumbo shrimp on the side and truffles grated over the top.

There were other introductions around the table. Sun-Hee tried to just sit quietly and listen to the conversations going on. The woman across from her, who Sun-Hee had learned was an executive for a cosmetic company, smiled and asked Sun-Hee what she did for a living. Sun-Hee said she was a student at Seoul University. And when she was asked how she knew the BTS members Sun-Hee told her that she was interning with Namjoon. She was getting better and better at lying all the time.

Mr. Koo latched on to this bit of information, "Interning with Namjoon, huh? Wow, that has to be quite an exciting experience for a college student. And does he buy you nice things? Pretty young girls like you deserve to have nice things."

Sun-Hee had no idea how to answer this question. She decided to be evasive. "Oh, I find I have everything I need."

Waiters were now handing out a fish course. It was some kind of white fish in a buttery saffron sauce with asparagus on the side.

Mr. Koo reached out a finger and ran it along Sun-Hee's forearm, "I noticed you aren't wearing diamonds with your pretty dress tonight, how about I send over a nice diamond tennis bracelet for you? Wouldn't that make your outfit even lovelier?" He smiled and then pretended to get an idea. "Or better yet, why don't I take you out to dinner next week and I can give it to you in person! Wouldn't that be fun?"

Wow this guy was bold. He was clearly very rich and used to getting what he wanted. His confidence was unnerving, he looked like he was ready to drag her off to a bedroom right here and now. Sun-Hee was going to have to nip this in the bud. "Thank you for your kind offer. I actually have a boyfriend."

The horrible man was complete undeterred. He persisted, "But can your boyfriend give you jewels? Can he give you designer clothes? Can he give you a fancy sports car? I can give you so many nice things."

Sun-Hee was getting nervous. She really hated pushy, rich, powerful men. This one was older than Tobi but he was just as confident. "I don't want any of those things. Sorry."

They were on to the meat course. Beautiful Kobe beef steaks were passed out by the waiters along with mashed potatoes. Sun-Hee was surprised at how Western the meal was. She hadn't had mashed potatoes since arriving in Korea, she would have thought they would serve the steak with rice.

Mr. Koo raised his eyebrows. "Hmmm, what could I offer to tempt Ms. Sun-Hee Anderson...." He took out his phone and started typing away at it, apparently looking for something to tempt her with.

Sun-Hee was startled that he knew her name, she had specifically not given it when doing the introductions. But then she remembered the name tags by the plates. She looked at hers and it did have her full name on it. She sighed. 

She didn't want to look like a prairie dog but she stood up just a bit to see if there were any of the boys near her. Unfortunately they were all at tables across the room. She sat back down.

Mr. Koo continued to scroll on his phone. "There are some good suggestions here. My Twitter followers think a yacht might do the trick or an fancy apartment in Seoul, maybe at Hannam The Hill?"

Sun-Hee didn't bother to tell him that she already lived at Hannam The Hill. She didn't want him to know where she lived. "Wait, Twitter followers?"

Mr. Koo smiled, "Yes, I've asked on Twitter what type of gifts might tempt a beautiful young college student to leave her boyfriend for me. They have lots of good suggestions. We just need to figure out what will tempt you the most. Ah, someone suggests I buy Godiva Chocolates for you, the company, not just the chocolates." He gave her a large smile as if to say 'how about that?'

There were fruits and nuts and desserts brought around then. Instead of individual plates they put a large selection at several spots on each table and handed out little plates so everyone could take what they wanted.

Sun-Hee was getting a headache, "I'm sorry, if you will excuse me." She stood up and went to find a restroom. She was happy to see that there was a sitting area attached to the restroom and she sat down on a velvet couch and put her head in her hands. I guess the US doesn't have the corner on rich men who think they can use their power to get what they want, she thought. She needed to get out of here. She couldn't talk to people any more.

By the time she left the restroom everyone was out of the dining room and mingling again. She was looking around to find one of the boys. They were easy to spot because of their bright clothing. She saw Hobi and made her way over to him.

He gave her a big smile and put his hand on her back as she moved next to him. "Hey Hobi, I'm wondering if I can go rest in the car until you all are done. I'm getting a bit of a headache."

He rubbed her back a little, "Of course you can, I'll go find Jin, he has the keys. I don't think we are going to stay for long. It is really stuffy in here. Why don't you wait for me out on the balcony so I can find you easily when I get back." Hobi was already texting Jin.

Nodding, Sun-Hee headed out to the balcony. Unfortunately, Mr. Koo saw where Sun-Hee was headed and followed her out. "My dear, I have a few more good suggestions to tempt you with. Someone suggested that since you go to Seoul University you might want a business you could run. How about that? Are you interested in fashion or jewelry or what type of business would you want? I could buy you a company, dear, just for you." He looked up at Sun-Hee. "No? Ok, well this follower says you are just lovely and you would probably want me to make a charitable donation in your name. I'll gladly give a million won to whatever charity you choose. How about that?"

At his words Sun-Hee felt ice go through her veins. She was filled with fear, "Wait, how would your follower know that I'm lovely?"

Mr. Koo just smiled at her, "I posted a picture of you at dinner. See?" He held out a picture of his tweet. It was a picture of her from the side when she wasn't looking at him but it still showed most of her face. He read the caption to her, "Trying to gain a new asset. What could I offer to tempt Seoul University student, Ms. Sun-Hee Anderson to leave her boyfriend for me?"

Sun-Hee was overcome with fear. She was instantly light headed and grabbed the railing in case she would faint. She was having difficulty breathing. "Delete it! You have to... delete it!"

Mr. Koo raised an eyebrow at her, "Oh, we finally found something you want, did we? Of course I will delete the post, dear. You just need to agree to go to dinner with me."
