A modern retelling of Jane Austen's 'Pride and Prejudice' feat. BTS.

"What do you think of her?", Hoseok asks. "Come on Yoongi, you should totally ask her for a dance. Don't you think she's pretty?".
He stares at his feet for a moment and bites...
For all you Jane Austen/BTS enthusiasts out there: Here's an overview of the cast so you can see which BTS member I chose for which Pride and Prejudice character and why. This is not necessary to understand the story; I just added it in as a bonus for anyone who's interested.
Y/N as Lizzy Bennet: Kind of self-explanatory.
Jen as Jane/Mrs. Bennet: No, this is not Jennie from Blackpink, sorry people. It's just an NPC. Originally, I wanted to give the role of Jane to one of the members, but then I decided against it because none of them (except Hobi, but he had to be someone else as you'll see in a minute) really fit the role. Also, I should add that Jen is not just Jane Bennet from Pride and Prejudice, she also plays the role of Mrs Bennet. I might sound like an odd combination because their personalities are quite different, but I think I made it work by simply giving Mrs Bennet's over-the-top, match-maker personality to Jen, but still letting her play the role Jane plays in the original story if that makes any sense.
Charlie as Charlotte Lucas: Also a slight change from the original here: Charlie is not Y/N's but Jen's friend in my scenario because Y/N already had Jen as her bestie. I know she doesn't play a huge role here, but I still think she was necessary for the plot.

Yoongi as Mr Darcy: Maybe it's just me, but...isn't Yoongi literally the perfect Mr Darcy? I mean, think about it. They both can come off as a little cold at first, but they're actually really soft und fluffy under their hard shell once you get to know them. Also, they can be very protective of the people the love and care for, and you probably wouldn't want to cross them. A perfect fit if you ask me.

Hobi as Mr Bingley: Another obvious match. Mr Bingley is a literal ray of sunshine, and so is Hobi. Their presence alone is enough to light up any room they step into, and to be honest, they just deserve all the love and happiness in the world.
