Hello everyone, my name is Park Jisoo — but not that Park Jisoo from BLACKPINK!Sure, we share the same name, but I'm her total opposite. I'm just a chubby, average-faced girl with one special talent: dieting for a month and somehow gaining even more weight. Like, seriously—what the f***?!
Jisoo scribbled those words into her diary, sighing.
Park Jisoo was, at heart, a kind and gentle girl—at least that's what she liked to believe. She was average in almost everything: grades, social circle, even her hobbies. But she had one thing that set her apart—her wild imagination. Jisoo loved diving into worlds that didn't exist. A total otaku.
Ever since she entered X University, people had started avoiding her. Why? Maybe it was because she stood at an intimidating 175 cm, with a solid frame and long straight bangs that shadowed her eyes.
"Is that the girl?"Whispers followed her everywhere—especially after that incident last week.
Despite the rumors, Jisoo was loved dearly by her family. Still, people often whispered another label behind her back: "the illegitimate child."
One morning, on her way to campus, Jisoo stumbled across her brother, Park Jinu—the rising solo idol, the nation's heartthrob. He froze when he saw her, clearly uncomfortable. His image as a celebrity mattered more than anything.
"...Jisoo?"Jinu was only a few centimeters taller, but his presence made her shrink.
"O–oppa…" she murmured, awkwardly avoiding his gaze.
But then something unexpected happened.
"Help me," Jinu whispered suddenly—and before she could react, he pulled her into a hug.
"Did you wait long? Sorry, there was an insect trying to hit on me."
Jisoo blinked in confusion. What insect? What's going on? Before she could process it, her brain short-circuited—she scooped her brother up bridal-style and ran.
"EH?! OMG 😱😱😱😱😱😱" she screamed, realizing what she'd done. Jinu's laughter snapped her back to reality.
"Hahaha, you're ridiculous! Put me down before people take photos."
Jisoo gently lowered him, face burning red."I—I'm sorry, oppa…"
"Whatever~ They were annoying anyway." Jinu grinned and slung an arm around her shoulder.
"B-but what if they—your career! Your perfect image!" she stammered.
Jinu just laughed. Flashback over.
Back in the present, the whispers had only grown louder."Yes, that's the girl! I heard she tried to kidnap him!"
Jisoo didn't bother to correct them. She hadn't done anything wrong—and that was enough for her.
At home, the news had already reached her parents.
"My baby! Are you okay? No one's bullying you, right?" cried Mr. Park, panic all over his face.
"JISOO!! ARE YOU ALRIGHT?! IF ANYONE BULLIES YOU, JUST GIVE 'EM YOUR CHUBBY MIDDLE FINGER!" shouted Mrs. Park, whacking her husband's head.
"Yah! Stop that! You're scaring her!" Mr. Park sniffled dramatically, eyes glossy.
"Our cute daughter's average image is ruined… she got it worse," he whimpered.
Jisoo felt a metaphorical arrow pierce her chest."I–It's okay… I'll be fine," she muttered and slipped away, supposedly to train with her mother.
But that plan fell apart—because apparently, her parents were in the middle of a different kind of training.
"Shhhh! The Madam is punishing Mr. Park. She said until pregnancy is confirmed, they have to do it 24/7."
"Ahahaha…" Jisoo awkwardly laughed and decided to visit her uncle instead—for boxing practice.
Her unusual strength probably came from her mother, Park Yeji—a fierce, domineering woman from a mafia family. Her father, Park Han, was a gentle, cross-dressing bar owner who somehow managed to marry her. How that happened? Nobody really knows.
