KTX Train.

Neoma and her friends booked First Class Seats in a bullet train traveling from Seoul to Pohang City.

Of course, they could have traveled by car.

But Neoma and her friends thought it was more fun to use the train. They even brought food from the stores in the station.

"I really thought your father wouldn't allow you to go with us, Neoma," Paige said. "Mr. Moon called my parents and asked all questions related to our trip to make sure you're in safe hands."

Gosh.

[Appa is so overprotective.]

"Mr. Moon also called my parents," Juri added. "My parents were quite intimidated, but they said it was an honor to talk to a real-life chaebol."

Only Neoma's friends and their families knew that Neoma was the daughter of a chaebol.

[Well, Phoebe also knows my real identity. But after my father threatened his father, I don't think she'd blabber.]
