The Genius Actor Who Brings Misfortune (550) [Side Story]
‘wow.’
My first impression after drinking soju was like this.
‘It’s surprisingly tasteless.’
I never really expected it to taste good, but I was surprised because it was worse than I expected.
‘Why on earth do people like this so much?’
While I was muttering to myself, a cautious voice was heard.
“how is it?”
I answered Jeong-Hyeon’s words calmly.
“It’s bitter.”
“Don’t you think you’ll get drunk? Don’t push yourself too hard. Start drinking now.”
“yes?”
I frowned without realizing it.
What is this guy saying now?
“Brother, who gets drunk from one glass of soju?”
“You don’t know your drinking capacity.”
“I don’t know about anything else, but I know that I’m not that weak.”
“… … This won’t do. You don’t know anything, and yet you’re drunk. It’s dangerous, it’s dangerous. If you let your guard down like that, you’ll get carried away. That’s alcohol, Yeonjae.”
Hyung Jeong-hyeon had a genuinely worried expression on his face.
It was frustrating to have to listen to someone nagging me after only drinking a glass of soju, but I didn’t want to talk back to someone who had that kind of expression on their face, so I just stayed still.
But when I heard what happened next, I couldn’t bear it any longer.
“You don’t drink alcohol until you get drunk, you drink it so you don’t get drunk.”
“yes?”
I retorted with a frown.
“Why drink if you’re not going to get drunk…?”
“what?”
Junghyun asked back as if he had heard something he couldn’t hear, but I was equally dumbfounded.
‘No, that’s right.’
Alcohol comes in many different types, including soju, beer, whiskey, and makgeolli.
But no matter how diverse they are, all alcohols have one thing in common.
‘What is the purpose of drinking?’
You drink to get drunk.
‘But what do you mean you have to drink it so you don’t get drunk?’
What good can you expect from something that doesn’t even achieve its original purpose?
Are you just telling me to feel the bitterness? Is that the responsibility of an adult?
“Ha, Yeonjae.”
While I was bewildered, Jeong-Hyeon opened his mouth with a complicated expression on his face.
“Not everyone drinks to get drunk.”
“Yes? Really?”
“It’s different for everyone. Some people drink because they like the taste of alcohol, and others drink because they like the lively atmosphere. It’s not that drinking to get drunk is bad, but you shouldn’t take getting drunk lightly, Yeonjae.”
“I didn’t take it lightly.”
“I know that. But how many times will you have a drinking party in the future? If you drink to get drunk every time, it will be difficult to handle. I want you to become someone who enjoys drinking without getting drunk.”
Ugh.
‘It’s difficult.’
Who knew a glass of alcohol could have such deep meaning?
‘Couldn’t you just have just drunk it?’
Actually, I’ve never thought that deeply about alcohol.
I heard that some kids want to drink alcohol since high school, so they go to great lengths to get it, like stealing from their parents or finding a store that has a rip-off store.
But I was far from that kind of thing.
Noh Bi-hyeok and Sergio also had similar personalities to me.
Since all my friends of the same age were busy with work, I never really had any interest in drinking.
‘I just thought that I would eat it when I became an adult.’
As the year changed, I became an adult.
I never really thought about drinking alcohol, but when Jeong-Hyeon asked me to have a drink, I didn’t want to refuse.
‘I guess I’ll drink some alcohol anyway as I go through social life.’
In Korean society, drinking was not optional.
In order to not drink, you need a reason not to drink.
Because I have allergies, I vomit right after drinking, I can’t stand alcohol, etc.
That is, in order to make the choice not to drink alcohol, you have to try it.
It was different from cigarettes, which you could not smoke just because you didn’t want to smoke them.
‘If I have to drink it anyway…’
Now that Jinbae and Jeonghyeon are here, it’s a good day to start drinking.
What’s more, isn’t there even a slave here?
‘It’s my first time drinking alcohol, either.’
At this point, it was necessary to check whether Noh Bi-hyeok could hold up well at a drinking party.
Then suddenly I became curious.
“Hyung Jeong-Hyeon, can I ask you something?”
“then.”
“How much can you drink, hyung? I already know how much Jinbae can drink.”
“Huh? You know how much I can drink?”
When I turned my head, I saw Jinbae hyung with his eyes wide open.
It was a big deal because Jinbae hyung looked so cute whenever he made that kind of expression.
“sure.”
I nodded, swallowing my laughter.
“What is my drinking capacity?”
“If you drink two bottles of soju, your face turns red. Your pronunciation also slows down.”
“… … You really know.”
Then of course I know.
It’s just that I wasn’t pressured to drink because I was a minor, but the number of company dinners I’ve attended over the years has been countless.
And the person who drank instead of me was Jinbae hyung.
It varies depending on the type of soju, but basically, Jinbae Hyung’s tension would drop rapidly after drinking more than two bottles of soju.
‘Should we say that the person himself is down?’
Jinbae knew very well that he was not a very attractive person, so he would force himself to be excited when drinking with someone he met for the first time.
The PDs and staff members were more likable than expected because of his refreshing appearance.
But after drinking more than two bottles of soju, his original low voice suddenly came out.
‘I always went home around that time.’
So, it doesn’t make sense that I don’t know Jinbae hyung’s drinking capacity.
But the only time I saw Hyung Jeong drinking was at the ‘Killing Horn’ dinner parties.
‘I’ve never seen any of them drunk.’
Of course, Jinbae hyung never showed me any signs of being indifferent.
He said that he slowed down a little after drinking more than two bottles of soju, and he didn’t show any signs of being drunk or acting strangely.
But Hyung Jeong-hyeon never showed any sign of wavering.
“Hyung, are you getting drunk?”
“What are you talking about, Yeonjae?”

Hyung Jeong-hyeon laughed as if he heard all kinds of strange things.
Then he scratched the back of his neck and continued speaking calmly.
“Well, I think I can drink up to 5 bottles of soju without any problems.”
what?
While I was opening my mouth slightly, the kids next to me joined in.
“Wow, this is crazy. Dude, you’re awesome.”
“You’re really good at talking. I’m jealous.”
“Amazing…!”
Noh Bi-hyeok, Lee Eun-taek, and Seong I-jun sat side by side and applauded.
My eyes went to Han Haram, who was crouching next to him and clapping along. Ha, so cute.
“How much alcohol do Eun-taek and Lee Jun have? I’m curious since we’re on the subject.”
“Oh, bro. Don’t be ridiculous. I saw those bros drinking last year.”
The one who answered Jeong-Hyeon’s words was Noh Bi-Hyeok.
The guy shook his head with a look of disgust on his face.
“Since Eun-taek and I are on the same team, I’ve seen him drink a lot. When he was twenty, he really couldn’t drink, but now it seems like he can easily drink a bottle.”
“Oh. If you drink alcohol, it increases.”
Lee Eun-taek responded indifferently.
“But Lee Jun-hyung is really awesome! Wow, I really thought I was seeing a crazy person.”
“Oh. I thought you were crazy.”
This time, Eun-taek Lee answered calmly.
Seong I-jun waved his hands with a flushed face and said, “What are you talking about, guys?”
When I saw that sight, I couldn’t help but feel curious.
“Why is Lee Jun hyung here? Are you drunk?”
Lee Eun-taek clicked his tongue and replied to my words.
“Tsk, you have to be drunk to act drunk. This guy doesn’t get drunk no matter how much he drinks.”
“What? Where can you find someone like that?”
“Look at you today. I got really mad once and made him drink alone. I drank soda. He was fine while I went to the bathroom ten times by myself. That crazy guy drank eight bottles by himself.”
“Hey, this is overdone.”
I looked at Seong-i Jun with a small smile.
But what I saw was Seong Ijun’s embarrassed smile. What is this, really?
‘… … 8 bottles?’
This is crazy.
I was surprised when I heard about Jeong-Hyeon’s drinking capacity, but when I heard about Seong-I-Jun’s drinking capacity, it felt like I was listening to a story from someone from another world.
‘They say that one bottle of soju usually makes about 8 glasses.’
That guy drank 8 bottles, not 8 glasses?
‘With such an innocent face…’
As they say, there’s no one you can trust.
I took another sip of alcohol with a tired face without realizing it. Ugh, it still tastes bad.
“how is it?”
“I told you to use it.”
“Aside from that, is there anything else that’s different? Are you feeling unsteady or dizzy?”
“What do you think a real person is?”
I couldn’t help but sigh at Jeong-Hyeon’s overprotection.
This guy really treats me like a child.
Look, you’re saying something to me while not saying anything to Noh Bi-hyeok, who ate the same thing as me.
‘He and I are the same age.’
Rather, shouldn’t we be worried about Noh Bi-hyeok, who is acting more like a child?
I held back the urge to grumble for some reason and drank another glass.
“Yeonjae, don’t push yourself too hard….”
Then, Seong I-jun started nagging me with an anxious look on his face.
No, really, why are you all like that?
‘You have no faith in me at all.’
Even if it’s my first time drinking, do you think I’ll get drunk after drinking 3 glasses of soju?
‘I shouldn’t show that I’m drunk, even if it hurts my pride.’
After drinking three glasses in a row, I felt a warm and flushed feeling inside.
‘Wow.’
The knit I was wearing suddenly felt stuffy.
I was thinking about taking off my sweater, but I held back because I was afraid that if I did something now, everyone would think I was drunk.
Instead, he touched Han Haram’s cheek.
“…?”
Without hesitation, I reached out and stroked his soft cheek.
Han Haram looked at my face with a bewildered expression.
“Yeonjae…?”
“why.”
“Why all of a sudden?”
“I just touch it because I want to touch it. Is that okay?”
“No, that’s not it….”
Han Haram rolled his eyes here and there, but obediently gave me the ball.
‘yes.’
I gave up on taking off my knitwear, but I can do this much.
Huh? Even soy sauce marinated crab doesn’t wear knitwear.
‘Soy sauce marinated crab is delicious.’
Suddenly it’s funny. Why is soy sauce marinated crab called soy sauce marinated crab?
The texture is so funny. Oh, it’s soy sauce marinated crab.
I touched Han Haram’s cheek with a smiling face.
‘Shall we have another drink?’
I felt a little excited, but nothing really changed.
“Hey, can you pour me some of that drink?”
“Huh? Oh, okay.”
When I handed my empty glass to Hyung Jeong, he looked at my face for a moment and then readily poured me a drink.
It seemed like he still thought there were no problems.
Of course. I can eat this much soy sauce marinated crab and not get drunk.
‘What does it feel like to be drunk?’
Anyone who saw me was in good shape right now.
My words didn’t get tangled, my face didn’t turn red, and I didn’t spill anything.
It was natural since I only drank three glasses of soju.
‘I want to feel drunk.’
How would that feel? If it were me, I wouldn’t have walked around naked like a soy sauce marinated crab.
It was at that moment that I was about to drink my alcohol, thinking that eating soy sauce marinated crab would be embarrassing.
Bam, someone grabbed my hand quickly.
“…?”
As I looked at him with one eyebrow raised, the other person stared at me intently and muttered something as if he was hesitant.
“Yeonjae, I think it would be better for you to stop drinking….”
It was Han Haram.
