If You Raise Three Idols Well, They Will Confess Their Love - Chapter 172
172 – You Have to Stay by My Side. Absolutely
Episode 172
Having used ‘absurdly deep-rooted transaction details,’ I was deeply troubled by the results.
“… “What should I do with this?”
It wasn’t because I failed to use it. Rather, it was safe to say that it was a complete success.
But that was too much.
At best, the truth shown by the compensation was too grand for me, who had expected the inside story to be that the doctor deliberately administered drugs to Yeoreum in exchange for money.
It’s no joke. If this were to explode, the country would turn upside down and many people would die.
Naturally, as the first person to spread it, I also felt like I would be buried quietly in the ocean somewhere.
“…”
I sat there and thought for a while.
I’m seriously thinking about how to use this information, or whether I should just cover it up considering the risks.
‘… As expected, all plans were ruined because of me.’
And what came to mind was a delicate girl shedding tears in a hospital room and falling into self-deprecation.
The image of a girl named Jin Yeoreum who suffered not from the pain she felt, but from the burden others felt because of her.
“… Well, if you just pretend you don’t know the key points, you’ll be fine. “Do I really have to die?”
That was my decision.
I got up right away.
It was I who had to disseminate actual information, and it was I who had to base the information and find contextualized evidence. It was also I who had to lead a public opinion war with the information distributed. Since only I could see the information obtained as a reward, it was impossible for it to flow as easily as the last time I was a reporter.
It won’t be easy.
Since so many big players are involved, there will be a movement to interfere.
I thought that maybe I would waste all the rewards I had accumulated over the two years since I returned.
Although I became aware of that reality one by one, there was no change in my intention to do it.
Because that was for Yeoreum.

I said a question that came to mind while I was scrubbing the urinal with a brush.
“Seoul, by the way, didn’t you clean it up the last time you came here? “How long has it been since it became this dirty?”
“I think it gets dirty quickly because there are so many kids.”
“… Fundamentally, I think we need training to use the bathroom cleanly.”
At the daycare center I always went to, Summer and I were scrubbing the urinal in the bathroom with a brush as a routine that had been set for some time, and we continued chatting like that.
“Shall we tell Sky?”
“No, I’ll talk to the director directly. Haneul can’t come here often anymore because of his debut, right?”
“It was like that. … I hope it goes well. I know it’s difficult, but I hope Haneul does well.”
“Don’t worry too much, I guarantee everything will be fine, Haneul.”
“Really?”
“Yes, to be honest, I was thinking of recruiting Haneul before you. I have good eyesight, right? That kind of kid. So, it will definitely succeed.”
At those words, Yeoreum suddenly stopped her hand and looked at me with a shaky focus that made her look like she was about to shed tears.
“You were trying to recruit Haneul instead of me? Then I’m just Haneul’s spare…”
“No, of course I thought you were more attractive, so I offered to recruit you! Summer, you are the best! I was so lucky to be able to recruit Jin Yeoreum, the most beautiful woman in the universe. “Cancer, of course.”
I was surprised by Yeoreum’s reaction and praised her as much as I could, so Yeoreum erased her anxious expression and said, her cheeks blushing.
“… I’m lucky. “Meeting Team Leader Seon.”
“… Yes, thank you for thinking so.”
To be honest, I was appalled.
I know that Yeoreum’s mental state has become quite unstable since the last fainting incident, so her reaction just now seemed quite dangerous.
Unlike her previous appearance, where Yeoreum remained as strong as iron and led the atmosphere of the Revolutionary Girl Revolution children despite physical and emotional stress, after the commotion, her emotions changed so drastically that it felt like she was overreacting to my small words. It was visible.
It was probably because her self-esteem had collapsed due to a series of incidents.
“Team Leader Seon, I’m suddenly nervous and my head hurts, so I think I need some comfort. Would it be okay if I hug you right now? “I hope you give me a pat on the back.”
“That’s okay, but can you just look at it now? “You’re wearing the rubber gloves you used to touch our toilet.”
“Oh… I’m fine.”
… I’m not okay.
When I had almost finished cleaning her in a skillful manner, accepting her foolishness, I had difficulty getting the beginning of what I wanted to say to her.
“… Summer, over there.”
“Yes?”
I was hesitant to ask her to appear on the show.
Moreover, it was not an easy thing to say to ask to go out as an individual in the middle of the summer and participate in a survival program where all the focus was gathered like a target, rather than the regular schedule that she participated in as part of the Girl Revolution.
Even if it’s for summer’s sake.
Still, I had to do it.
“Do you ever want to go on a broadcast?”
I spoke with PD Seon Yu-jeong and told her in detail what kind of program ‘Ready to Dance’ is and what Yeoreum will experience there.
“… It’s roughly like this program. “I think it will help your image a lot if you go out.”
“…”
“I will respect your decision whether to participate in this program or not. So, can you speak comfortably?”
After hearing my words, Yeoreum began a long silence and finally opened her mouth.
“Team Leader Seon. “I’m scared of people.”
Her body was shaking slightly
“Everyone except the little fence next to me. … I always get the impression that those people are all laughing at me and disparaging everyone associated with me. Scary. “I’m afraid.”
“… I see.”
She had a hunch from those words.
It seems that Yeoreum’s wounds have not healed enough to appear in front of others yet.
“Thank you for being honest. “I will pretend that there was no casting for ‘Ready to Dance’ this time.”
“No, it’s okay if you don’t. “I will participate.”
“It’s okay to not overdo it. Because I empathize with the pain you are feeling. Let’s move forward slowly.”
It was my job to make that time.
It’s not about forcing a hurting child to be broadcast.
“It’s really okay. “As long as I have one by my side, I feel really fine.”
“… “One?”
Summer looked at me with shaking eyes and said.
“Yes, that one is Team Leader Seon.”
“…”
“I’m still scared, but I think I’ll be able to stand up if I have Team Leader Sun. So please accept this foolishness. Then I will go on that broadcast.”
From noble mtl dot come
Yeoreum, who has silky, long black hair, elegant eyes reminiscent of luxury goods, and beautiful beauty reminiscent of historical works of art, spoke earnestly, even though she was shy, which did not match her
“You need to stay by my side. Absolutely.”
***
At the first recording site of ‘Ready to Dance’, someone came to the waiting room where Yeoreum was nervously reading the script.
Just in case, I opened the door instead of Yeoreum and checked.
“Excuse me. “Is this really Jin Yeoreum’s waiting room?”
A woman with faded green dyed hair, tattoos and piercings on her neck said that as she stood in front of the door.
“You’re right. “What brought you here?”
“Ah, I’m an underground dancer who is one of the cast members participating in ‘Ready to Dance’. “She wanted to say hello, so she walked around the waiting room.”
Now that I think about it, I thought I saw her face once during the pre-meeting.
I opened her door and greeted her.
“Please come in.”
Yeoreum, who was reading her script, put it down and greeted her politely.
“Hello!” Her name is Jin Summer, and she is active in a group called Girl Revolution. Please take care of me!”
“Nice to meet you. “She is Cha Ye-ji, the leader of the dance crew Swords.”
“… Yes, right?”
When she heard that name, her expression and my expression her hardened.
Not to mention me, she has heard the horrors of those named Ye-ji, as she has heard stories of fear from Yeo-reum and Gyeom-ri.
“Yes, it’s Yeji.”
Cha Yeji looked at our stiff faces and asked politely.
“… Did I make some mistake? If so, I apologize. “I’m from an undergrad, so it’s my first time on a show like this, so I guess I don’t know much about etiquette.”
“No. It just brings back bad memories. “Excuse me.”
“Ah… , Haha, that’s a relief. “I thought I made some mistake.”
He looked very polite and gentle. It is completely different from the impression that comes from the name.
Yes, prejudice is not good.
There are so many people named Yeji in the world, but do we look at them with prejudice because we have come across a strange case?
Summer must have thought of that too, as she looked at me, nodded her head, and offered her hand for a handshake.
“Yeji, please take care of yourself during this broadcast.”
“Thank you. Please take care of me too!”
The two shook hands and said goodbye.
It was a very heartwarming sight to see.

During the broadcast, Cha Yeji asked the MC.
“Oh, aren’t there any doping tests? You never know what else the druggy b*tch could have done, right? Hehe.”
And in the naming battle that followed, Cha Ye-ji said:
“Who will your opponent be? Let’s call it summer. “I admit that it’s scary to take medicine, but honestly, I feel like shit if I don’t take medicine.”
“…”
It wasn’t prejudice, Yeji b*tch!
