Rebirth: King to Superstar

"Gah Soo, wait. Are you crazy? You want us to go the complete front, cutting the line? These people standing would eat us alive if you do that." For Joon-won it was a crazy idea. All the people around them were covered in sweat from head to toe because of the heat, clearly looking like they stood in line for hours. They would go crazy and beat them and Gah Soo to death if they see them skipping the line. 

"Then what do you want to do? If you want to stand in the line, it might take you at least a couple more hours." 

Joon-won sighed as he heard her. He didn't want Min-Seok to stand for that long in the heat and so started contemplating on how to solve the problem. After thinking for a few seconds he could only come up with a dumb idea and said to her.

"Alright then, can you take one of those forms and other things so that we can meet somewhere secluded and finish this thing? Is that possible?" 

"Alright sure, I'll come to the back of the line in a few minutes, wait for me." And the phone cut. 

Min-Seok looked at him and asked, "What happened? Should we wait here?" Yun-hee on the other hand was just looking around like it was the first time she came into contact with human civilization. 

Joon-won nodded and replied, "Yes, we can't directly go to the front in this situation. Gah Soo is going to come to us with the related papers and then we'll go somewhere quiet to fill them in." Min-Seok just nodded as the three of them continued to stand there waiting for Gah Soo. 

A few minutes later a sweaty Gah Soo came running towards them with a backpack and a smile. She stopped in front of him and said, "Sorry to keep you guys waiting. I got the papers you guys need to fill." 

Joon-won nodded and said, "Alright. Here this is my sister Kim Yun-hee, and this is my dad Kim Min-Seok. This is Gah Soo a senior here." He introduced all of them to each other. 

Min-Seok immediately thanked Gah Soo for her help, making Gah Soo flustered as she waved her hand hurriedly and stopped him from doing so. She then turned towards Yun-hee who was looking at her and said with a smile.

"Nice to meet Yun-hee, I have heard about you from your brother a lot. It's a pleasure to the school to have you studying here." 

Yun-hee immediately nodded and said while bowing a little, "Please take care of him, senior." Gah Soo nodded before looking at Joon-won, "Let's go somewhere quieter to quickly get this registration done. It's very hot here, let's go into one of the classes on the ground floor." 

The three nodded as the sun was getting to them too and followed Gah Soo away from the huge crowd and into the building. As soon as they entered they were hit by cool air making it so refreshing for them. Gah Soo guided them into one of the small lecture halls on the ground floor and closed the door as they entered in.

Yun-hee's mouth was open the entire time they were in the building. She looked around continuously, tried to peek into the rooms, and once they entered the lecture hall her mouth was wide open enough for an egg to fit into it. 

Looking at the room she muttered, "This is a small lecture hall? It's bigger than my high school classroom." But due to the silence in the room, everyone could hear her murmurs too. 

Gah Soo giggled as she set the backpack on the front seat and said, "Well, this is a renowned University so there will be more students. This is one of the smaller classes in this place, There are much bigger ones for the more popular classes. Alright come and sit, you guys don't need to stand."

All three of them sat as Gah Soo started taking out the papers and explained what they had to do. She was very slow and patient as she explained everything to Min-Seok and Gah Soo in filling out the papers. Joon-won just took out his phone and was reading some news. After 30 minutes they were finally done and Gah Soo kept all the papers in the bag before saying.

"Alright, all the papers you guys need to fill up are done. Now let's go to the payment area and get that done too. After that everything would be over and she can join right in." Everyone stood up and followed her out of the classroom. They went through the hallways before entering another huge room filled with people. 

Gah Soo sighed and turned to them before saying, "We need to wait in the lines here." 

Joon-won nodded and said to Min-Seok, "Dad you and Yun-hee sit outside somewhere. I'll call you guys when it's our turn." The room was a bit chaotic and tight, so he naturally didn't want both of them getting squashed in the crowd. 

Min-Seok nodded and said, "Alright we'll be right outside, so call us when our turn comes." He knew Joon-won would only deny if he insisted on staying and so he just went with it too. Both of them went out leaving Gah Soo and Joon-won in the room full of people.

"Alright, let's quickly join a line and hope it gets done quickly." He nudged Gah Soo and made his way to one of the shorter lines. 

Gah Soo looked at Joon-won and said as they stood in the line, "You are nothing like your father at all. You guys are so different. If I didn't know you, I would have thought they were your acting buddies." 

Joon-won looked down at her and didn't know what to say. He honestly didn't know how to answer that question. He wasn't Min-Seok's son, but he was. It would sound too crazy for him to even try to explain. So he just put on an irritated face and said, "Shut up. If he isn't my dad, why would I even ask a favor?" 

Gah Soo just shrugged and both of them waited as the line slowly moved and after an entire hour, it was finally their turn. Gah Soo looked at him and said, "Go call your dad." 

Joon-won just shook his head and took out his bank card from the wallet before saying, "It's ok, I'm the one who is paying. Alright give them the documents and tell me how much to pay with the dorms and everything." Gah Soo just nodded before she talked with the person on the other side. 

Joon-won paid the bill and came out of the room with the receipt in his hands. It actually took him a bit less than he expected because of Yun-hee's good grades in the national exam. So she managed to get a scholarship. 

As soon as they got out of the hot stuffy room, both of them took deep breaths and Joon-won took out his phone before giving Min-Seok a call. 

[Is it our turn? Wait, we are coming.]

"No, no. Tell me where you guys are right now. It's done, I'll tell you guys when I get there." 

Min-Seok just gave him the directions and both of them made their way out of the building once again into the sun as they noticed Min-Seok and Yun-hee were sitting on a bench under a tree. 

"It looks like you guys found the perfect spot," Joon-won commented as he got near to them.

Min-Seok nodded and replied, "Yes, we were lucky. Now tell me why are you out. I thought you said you'll call me when it's our turn. So why are you here?" 

"Everything is over dad. I paid for the tuition and everything. It's over and let's talk about it when we get back home. Alright?" Joon-won knew Min-Seok was probably a bit angry about his actions and understood why too. So he didn't want to get into a debate or a potential argument on the university grounds when it was an important day in Yun-hee's life.
