Chapter 146

It seemed like they were moving in an organized way...

“They’re making the ads so long.”

“It’s that Yoon Mi-sook drama.”

The members gathered in front of the TV at their dorm, opening snack bags and waiting for the drama to start.

“By the way, I heard from Dong-soo hyung earlier that our ad came out.”

“Did it come from a famous place if Dong-soo hyung told us in advance?”

“I hope so.”

“Hey hey hey, it’s starting.”

“Ouch!”

Kim Hyun jabbed Park Jin-hyuk’s side. Park Jin-hyuk, who was caught off guard, clutched his side and fell to the side.

“Wow, the screen looks like a movie.”

“Wow, Lim Hye-ji...”

“Park Ji-yeon is so pretty...”

The members gaped at the scene where the actress Lim Hye-ji, who played the role of Queen In-hyun, and Park Ji-yeon, who played the role of a concubine, met on the screen.

“Did you hear the background music just now? It’s majestic.”

“But when is Ian coming out?”

“Oh! I think he’s coming out!”

Park Seo-dam hit Jo Tae-woong’s knee anxiously. He was sitting next to her. The scene changed and someone’s back filled the screen.

“Look at Choi Ian’s physique. He could play soccer.”

As soon as Ian’s low voice was heard, Kim Hyun exclaimed and raised his thumb.

“It wasn’t just a teaser.”

“Wow, his voice is no joke. Did he lower it on purpose?”

Ian nodded silently. While he was monitoring the drama with a serious expression, the members didn’t bother him and chatted excitedly among themselves.

The camera slowly moved up from Kim Chun-taek’s feet as he left the palace after meeting the concubine.

With a majestic background music, Ian’s face filled the screen and a caption appeared below.

[Kim Chun-taek, Queen In-hyun’s nephew]

The second episode of the drama ended with Kim Chun-taek finding Kim So-ah and smiling meaningfully. Then the ending OST played and the preview started.

“There he is. The best entrance scene to succeed Prince Soo-yang. This is it.”

“Ian is the ending fairy, the ending fairy.”

“He’s going to be a great actor.”

“Can I be honest? Ian stands out more than Han Dong-jae.”

“I agree.”

As Lee Joo-hyuk and Park Jin-hyuk added their comments, Ian smiled brightly. As expected from Yoon Mi-sook and Park Pyo-hyun’s team, there was nothing weird about his scenes. He looked satisfied as he watched his members with a face that felt like a photo shoot.

“How is it? Do you think it came out well?”

“Yeah. It’s crazy.”

Jo Tae-woong gave him a thumbs up.

“Oh, how rude. Get out of here.”

“My lord! Please give me your number!”

“My lord!”

Park Jin-hyuk pretended to fan himself with a non-existent fan and lifted his head. Then Park Seo-dam and Kim Joo-young grabbed his pants and acted along.

[Why are they making more fuss than him.]

‘Why not? I’m in a good mood.’

Ian watched the skit for a moment and then joined in.

“Who is it? Who has impersonated me?”

“My lord! It’s him!”

“Catch him alive.”

[Good for you. Enjoy this moment. You never know when you’ll become fish eyes~]

Jin sneered.

It had been three years since their debut, and they should have been wilted by now, but they still cared a lot about each other and tried to look after each other.

Was it because Awi became more popular or was it their natural disposition? Ian looked at Jin who was floating in the air.

‘Was Awi like this in the future? How was it?’

[Even though we focused on individual activities, we all renewed our contracts.]

‘Really? It’s not easy to renew contracts for everyone...’

They ordered a lot of juice and took pictures together, which made the part-timer’s face bright.

The members who ordered their drinks sat down and waited until their drinks were made. The customers nearby were murmuring and taking pictures of Awi, but the members didn’t care because it had become their daily life.

“Can we carry all that? We should have just ordered delivery.”

“Juyoung-ah. This is how you do it. You bring it yourself and say please take good care of our kid.”

“Oh, is that how it is? Is this social life...”

“If you get a schedule like this, we’ll do this for you too.”

“Really?”

Ian and Kim Juyoung high-fived each other.

‘Are we being filmed doing this?’

[Of course.]

Ian clenched his jaw silently. Jo Taewoong’s attitude controversy didn’t die down even when someone brought it up again.

-Awi got a card from Jo Taewoong’s part-timer

The part-time worker’s post did not get much attention and disappeared. The poor part-time worker went to the cafe to prove it, but it was buried as well.

The controversy kept getting dragged up as the same topic reached over 600 comments, but someone’s explanation only got 20 comments.

The busy ones were the members of Awi. They tried to spread the explanation and end the controversy, but it only reignited the original issue and made it bigger.

“Someone seems to be moving in an organized way...”

[You’re probably right.]

“Really? Then...”

“Your drinks are ready!”

“Let’s go.”

I’ll think about it later. Ian got up from his seat and picked up the drink carrier.

***

“Here are your drinks.”

“Please take good care of our Seodam.”

The members who returned to the studio handed out juices to the staff one by one.

“Thanks to Seodam, we get to enjoy this.”

“We did well in hiring him as a DJ. Thank you.”

The radio PD and writer showed their drinks to Park Seodam and toasted in the air. Park Seodam’s ears turned red and he squeaked.

“Ah, hyung! Don’t embarrass me like that! You’re not my parents...”

“Shut your mouth. He’s acting like he’s so good.”

“Park Seodam has a special skill. Changjo!”

Ian called Min Changjo, who was co-hosting the radio with Park Seodam. He was a friend of the same age as Park Seodam, and they became close after ‘Arimpic’. Min Changjo, who was lurking from afar, ran to Ian’s side.

“Have this.”

“Wow, I have one too?”

“Of course.”

“I’m jealous. Our members don’t do this for me... Thank you. I’ll enjoy it, hyungs.”

Min Changjo looked at Park Seodam with envious eyes. Awi had invited A1S members in their previous episode, but they didn’t prepare anything like this.

Rather, it was the Awi members who got angry at Min Changjo’s words.

“Really? They have no sense.”

“We can’t let this go. Hey, gather up, let’s take a picture together.”

“Changjo, smile.”

At Juhyuk’s words, the members gathered around Min Changjo. Ian stretched out his long arm and took a picture.

“Huh... why are you suddenly taking a picture...?”

The members laughed wickedly at Min Changjo, who took a picture with Awi unexpectedly.

“We’ll teach your members a lesson. First, let’s send this picture to our chat room...”

“Should we send it to Junseo hyung?”

Taeung grinned and scrolled through his chat contacts. He was quick to act when it came to teasing someone.

The members who entered the booth for the radio time looked at Park Seodam, who was sitting on the DJ seat, with satisfaction.

“Yes! ‘The idol radio you can see, watch out!’ Today’s guest is...”

“These people are going beyond the trend and becoming the top!”

“Are you saying that with your own mouth?”

“Why? I’m just stating the facts. Yes! We are the group Awi!”

The members waved their hands at the camera that was filming them.

“Hello!”
