Chapter 70 The Worst Timing

Whats going on?

As I raised my voice at Ye-jun with the door open, Seon-woo, who had woken up from his sleep, asked from inside the room.

Oh, nothing much. I just thought we could have breakfast a bit early.

I didnt want to cause any trouble today, when Seong-won had an important broadcast, and a live one at that.

I gave Ye-jun a wink, telling him to be quiet, and he made a playful face, as if he understood.

He still didnt look completely refreshed, as usual.

He seemed proud of his work, since it was his first commercial arrangement.

People who had jobs that involved creating and showing their products to others were inevitably affected by the feedback they received.

If the label attached to his first commercial work was that he stole a song from another group, it would be hard to restrain himself.

But this was not the time. It was a situation where he had to hold back his anger.

Wheres Seong-won hyung?

Seon-woo came out to the living room, tidying up the blanket he had slept under.

Hes still sleeping.

Ill help you with the breakfast preparations.

The three of us ate a delicious breakfast, and then Seong-won opened the door with a groan.

Whats this? So early in the morning.

He frowned as he looked at us, sitting side by side on the sofa.

Do you want some breakfast?

Nah. Ill just have a salad for lunch and go.

Seong-won, who was part of the cast, said he had to go two hours earlier than us to prepare for the rehearsal.

We, the staff audience, decided to move as a group in the managers car two or three hours later.

You have to eat something to have energy and voice, right?

You know Im not a big eater.

Seong-won passed me by with a sullen look and went into his room after washing up neatly.

Wow, the ice princess is gone. The accommodation has become royal.

Royal?

Seon-woo tilted his head as if he didnt understand what he meant, and Ye-jun answered jokingly.

Youre a baby crocodile and hes an ice fondue.

Huh?

Seon-woo still looked confused and couldnt understand at once, and Ye-jun gave up explaining.

Never mind. Sorry for teasing you.UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

Why, what are you apologizing for?

Seon-woo looked at me as if he had done something wrong. I sneaked a glance at the two guys and backed off.

I dont know what youre talking about either.

As Ye-jun and I ran into the room, Seon-woo was left alone in the living room.

Why are you the only one left?

Seong-wons voice asking Seon-woo came from beyond the thin wooden door back to the living room.

I dont know either.

? If you dont know, who does?

I could clearly see what kind of expression Seong-won was making without looking at him.

I suppressed a laugh and slapped my cheek lightly, as if to cast a spell on myself and snap out of it.

Then I checked the timeline of my subscription account, where only good stories were posted, to gain some strength.

[- Last week, the Crisis Shelter was so cute when they ate everything saying it was Chuseok ]

Thats when the manager dropped the nuclear bomb with a cheerful smile.

You got the materials from the company, right? Prepare well. Youre going on as MCs starting next month!

Huh?

Seon-woo looked back and forth between the manager and Kyunghwa with a bewildered expression.

Not Kyunghwa hyung?

The manager glanced at Kyunghwa and answered Seon-woos innocent question.

Huh? Why would Kyunghwa go? Its you. Seon-young is leaving after the first week of October and theyre replacing her with another MC. Theyre going to do a special episode with you and Na siblings that day.

The atmosphere was chilly. Somewhere, a kittens fang flew and stabbed me in the ankle.

I felt like tears would well up in my eyes from the pain, but I couldnt scream in this situation.

Uh

Seon-woo stammered, caught off guard by this situation.

His head was confused like a computer that hadnt booted up yet, and he didnt know what to say.

Its really me, not Kyunghwa hyung?

Why do you keep talking about Kyunghwa? Theyre starting with you and Seon-young as a special.

The manager drove the nail in, and Seon-woo looked more confused as his eyes spun around.

Can I, can I do it?

I thought it was impossible. The first live broadcast he had flown around was thanks to his skill.

He had gained some confidence since then and his attitude wasnt bad, but he wasnt at the level to be the main MC.

Seon-woo was diligent, but he learned slower than the others and was slow to react.

If he had been in an environment that required strict group life rather than an idol, he would have lived with a 100% reputation.

Hes really, really nice

And then everyone would have added, Hes a bit of a torturer. He was the most cruel person in the world who unwittingly tore apart other peoples pride and wounds.

When an incident or accident occurred, Kyunghwa was the type to deal with it flexibly with the maximum mind control.

Uh uh why cant Kyunghwa hyung do it instead of me?

He made things worse by saying things he didnt have to.

I and Ye-jun, caught in this awkward atmosphere, kept quiet and held our breath.

From where I was sitting, the door was blocking my view, so I couldnt see what kind of face Kyunghwa was making.

And Ye-jun felt the same way.

Shit, what do we do with this atmosphere?

I tried to communicate with Ye-jun with my eyes, but he looked away with a gloomy expression.

Thats when Kyunghwa opened his mouth calmly, with a much lower tone than usual.

Thats great. Since Seonyoung noona has been the MC all along, she can teach you a lot of things. Dont worry about me and do your best.

I glared at Ye-jun with resentful eyes. Why did he have to torture the kid when he could have just passed him in one go during the recording!

I dont know what Ye-jun was thinking, but he caught the resentment towards himself and shook his head as if he was wronged.

What do you mean, no!

Ever since Kyunghwa reluctantly gave up half of his part to Seon-woo, the air between them was not good.

Of course, Seon-woo was clueless and didnt know anything, and he was just cheerful, while Kyunghwa was burning with anger inside.

Everyone except Seon-woo knew that Kyunghwa thought of himself as untalented.

But that wasnt true. They all had their own strengths in different areas. Kyunghwa was talented in many things.

But he didnt seem to feel that way. Thats when Seon-woo poured gasoline on the fire.

I really dont have any confidence Cant you ask the manager to switch me with Kyunghwa hyung?

As if.

Seon-woo was crushing Kyunghwas pride without any malice.
