Chapter 180

One in a Million (2)

Taehyung Park was still in the dark.

Dowook tried to contact him, but it was no use.

Once the American TV recording schedule was set, it could not be postponed any longer, so after discussing it, the members also informed Director Oh Baek-ho of the fact.

First of all, Director Oh Baek-ho had to be aware of the facts to be able to deal with any problems that arise in the future.

As expected, Director Oh Baek-ho was furious and said he would come find Park Tae-hyung immediately.

It was true that even Director Oh Baek-ho was cautious when first meeting Park Tae-hyung due to his quiet and demure personality.

As time passed, I got the impression that he was not just quiet, but was doing his job well.

For that reason, the member that Director Oh Baek-ho did not have much worry about after Do-wook was Park Tae-hyung.

Director Oh Baek-ho was even more concerned when he heard that Park Tae-hyung had left the lodgings at will, went home, and had no contact with him and did not come back.

“What if something happens? Are you going to take responsibility?”

I was more worried because it was Taehyung Park who had always done well.

Director Oh Baek-ho’s idea was that if quiet kids make a mistake, they will hit hard.

Director Oh Baek-ho’s suggestion was to go to Park Tae-hyung’s home right away and see what the problem was.

Clearly, Director Oh Baek-ho’s position was different from that of the members. Of course, as his beloved younger brother, he was worried about Park Tae-hyung, but for him, it was not a wish but a duty to make sure there were no problems with Park Tae-hyung’s safety.

However, anyone could see that Taehyung Park was mentally wandering, so we couldn’t just bring him in.

“I said I would come, so if Taehyung gives you a little more time...”

Manager Oh Baek-ho glared at Jeong Yoon-gi’s words.

“I told you all of you are doing well and asked if you would come, huh?!”

Director Oh Baek-ho’s voice grew louder with worry and anxiety.

“Brother Baekho...” Ahn Hyeong

-seo, who is always getting scolded by Director Baekho Oh but is also the person he is most comfortable with, noticed what Director Oh Baekho was thinking and called him out.

“Anyway, Dowook is still filming the drama. I’ll go to America after it’s over... If you wait until then... Brother... This is my first time, so please take a look...” ”

This is my first time. This makes me even more worried! Do-wook’s filming is almost finished. Doesn’t it end the day after tomorrow? I also applied for a US visa. “Anyway, I’m going to go down and coax her back, so I’m not saying I’m just going to drag her by the collar like that.”

Manager Oh Baek-ho answered with a slightly softened tone. Do-wook said after noticing Director Oh Baek-ho’s softened expression.

“I will come back.”

Director Oh Baek-ho’s eyes widened at Do-wook’s words.

Before talking to Director Oh Baek-ho, the members were competing with each other to bring Tae-hyung Park directly. However, other members found it difficult to take time off.

This was because American TV broadcasts were suddenly scheduled and schedules that were behind had to be pulled.

Seok Ji-hoon’s schedule was tight because he was filming another restaurant tour program in addition to ’48 Hours Camping’, and Ahn Hyeong-seo was in the middle of featuring in Monster’s Kwon Ji-hyung’s solo album.

In addition, Jung Yoon-gi and Kim Won’s OK digital single release date was brought forward.

The release date was pushed back by a week to promote promotional effects in line with the launch of the product on American TV. As a result, I stayed up all night working on and recording songs.

Although he was extremely busy filming the drama, after filming the drama, Do-wook actually took a break for about 2-3 days before his American schedule.

Even though the schedule was difficult, Do-wook also wanted to visit Tae-hyung Park in person as his ‘friend’.

“Do-wook, you? “What about filming a drama?”

“I’ll go right after it’s over. “You have about two days.”

“Until then! Are you saying we should just let go and wait?”

The voice of someone presumed to be Park Tae-hyung’s mother was heard.

I could hear various voices behind the door for a while, but it was difficult to properly understand the content of the conversation.

Even after a while, there was no other answer, so Do-wook was wondering whether to ring the bell again.

The iron front door opened slightly with a squeak. Taehyung Park looked quite embarrassed.

Even though he came home and ate a home-cooked meal in a comfortable atmosphere, Taehyung Park’s face looked a little gaunt.

“Do Do-wook... How did you get here...”

“Have you come to a place I can’t come to?”

“Oh no...”

“Let’s go. “I have to go to America.”

“Huh?”

Taehyung Park asked back as if he was embarrassed.

Taehyung Park and Dowook went to the beach near Taehyung Park’s home. The winter sea breeze was strong, but I felt like I was waking up.

“What are you going to do when you get scheduled? Turn off your phone.”

“I’m sorry...”

First, Do-wook pointed out Park Tae-hyung’s mistake by informing him of the fact that the United States had contacted him. Taehyung Park could not enjoy any joy and just lowered his head and repeatedly said he was sorry.

“I was just about to go up...”

Park Taehyung mumbled.

Do-wook did not urge, but calmly waited for Park Tae-hyung to speak. Even if I didn’t say it, I already guessed it. Other members probably did the same. So, I waited for Taehyung Park, understood him, and was considerate not to push him around.

Taehyung Park continued his story with difficulty.

“......So...it doesn’t help at all...”

As expected, it was the same.

The group called K.K. was already at the top. There were still big international stages, including in the US, but I had achieved everything I wanted to achieve when I first tried to become an idol singer.

It meant that it was time to leave the group and find one’s own path as an individual.

The other members were doing them little by little. Needless to say, Dowook was active in all fields, including composing and acting, showing outstanding skills. He also worked as a solo singer and planned to continue working in the future.

Jung Yoon-gi and Kim Won were also making their own paths as rappers. Seok Ji-hoon played an active part in entertainment shows with his neat speaking skills and unique character.

Ahn Hyeong-seo is an excellent singer and has currently featured OST songs and other singers, but he could release a solo album at any time.

In comparison, Taehyung Park had nothing outside of the group K.K. I deserved to feel shabby.

Although I was in charge of being in charge of dancing within the team, I felt even more incompetent because I was in a situation where I couldn’t show off my special talents unless I was on stage.

In that situation, as KK’s song entered the Billboard and the members’ individual activities accelerated, Taehyung Park felt like he was being pushed to the edge of a cliff. I felt like it would be enough even without confidence.

“I was wondering if there was something I could do...”

Then, time had passed by.

Because he worked so hard without any time to rest, Taehyung Park was now experiencing the ‘wandering’ that other singers experience during their activities.

The salty smell of the sea wafted through the wind.

“But if we can’t contact you like this, everyone gets worried... I’m really upset, both as a member and as a friend.”

Park Tae-hyung’s head bowed even further at Do-wook’s words.

Do-wook had a reason to be confident that he would be able to bring Taehyung Park with him and that Taehyung Park was not at all skeptical about KK’s activities or his career as a singer and lost contact with him.

And it seemed like it might be able to solve Taehyung Park’s concerns.

“This... is you?”

Dowook asked, placing his hand on Taehyung Park’s shoulder.
