Need advice, I'm srsly about to go crazy!?
Alright, back story:
My bf bought me a plane ticket to South Korea to meet his parents (we've been dating for about a year).
I really really wanted to go, but my mom hates my bf and is afraid of something "bad" could happen to me in South Korea. Sooo my plane was supposed to leave on Dec 27th...And...I was about to walk out the door with everything, but she physically stops me (punches and pushes me) from leaving!
Soo now I feel terrible and my bf and his parents are really disappointed. And I have an un-used plane ticket that I have no clue what to do with.
The thing is, I have the option of going to South Korea January 2nd to the 19th, even though it will cost $800 extra to change my ticket. My bf's parents are willing to pay this and I really want to go.
Now, before I tried leaving THE FIRST time for South Korea, my mom told me if I don't go and stay here, then our relationship will get much better and she'll be nice (my relationship w/ my mom has honestly sucked for the past 2 years). So anyway, I stayed (reluctantly) in America when I was supposed to leave...Then THE VERY NEXT DAY my mother starts ranting and raving and going crazy (as usual, no lie) about how stupid i am and how she wants to "take a step back" from me. And she's now going to move out of our apartment, let me take over the rental-lease, and move somewhere that I won't be able to go cuz she willingly will not tell me where. She doesn't want anything to do with me anymore. BUT WTF its like, she promised me to change if i stayed (and i did, even if i was FORCED to stay) but then she doesnt change??!?!?! What am I supposed to do?
Also, if I go to South Korea, my twin sister would be INSTANTLY kicked out of the house...But now im thinking "well that doesnt matter if me and my sister will have to take over this rental of hers".
(My sister and I have the option of staying at my bfs house for indefinitely with not having to pay rent.)
So. I have an un-used plane ticket that I need to change the date so I don't lose the money on it. Should I book it for Jan 2nd and do what I want, or still try to please my mom? PLEASE...PLEASE I could use the advice, no trolls, and I need some advice right now cuz this is a lot to deal with!!
Oh, btw, I'm 21 years old, I pay my mother rent and everything every month, i have a steady job and im a full time student! I've never done anything bad or against my mom (such as do drugs or sneak out)....
Thanks

What you need to do is file on your mother for assault!
Pack your stuff when she is gone somewhere, put it somewhere she can't find it (a friend's house or somewhere), stay at their house or even stay at home and tell her you are going out, and just go!
She has no right to do anything to you. Stand up for yourself. That day you should have called the police!

Orientals are family strong cultures. Take mom along. I'm sure she will be very surprised by the welcome you both will receive.

You are 21 years old. If you want to go, then go. You don't have to let your mother control you. Respect is one thing, but it's not disrespectful to go to South Korea. Anyway, South Korea is safe, it's not like you're going to North Korea. South Korea is a free State.
Just don't tell her the date if she is going to react that way. Just go and don't let her see you take your stuff. She has no right to do that.
