Rockstar Again - Chapter 125

Episode 125. Game Changer (5)

Blue Porcelain’s Jongno practice room.

Five men gathered in a basement practice room instead of the recording studio where they usually gathered.

Taeju, Youngpil, and Dongsik, the three members of Blue Porcelain.

And the guest member, Metallord’s leader, Lars Roemer.

finally…….

“But, brothers.”

Everyone’s attention turned to Park Soo-chan’s rather calm words.

Of course, Lars Roemer didn’t understand the words and saw Park Soo-chan. He just looked at him.

Although Yoon Tae-joo occasionally provides interpretation in the middle, it is not work but an act of kindness. He does not interpret all situations.

“Huh? Why?”

In response to Hong Young-pil’s question, Park Soo-chan hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth.

“Dong-ha, are you really from the past? Time slip?”

“……uh……?”

“… … .”

“Ugh… … .”

“What? Taeju, didn’t that guy just now do something like time slip?”

The three men, excluding Lars Roemer, just glanced at Park Soo-chan’s words. Seeing those members, Park Soo-chan nodded slightly.

“That’s right. Well, it’s a picture that would be stranger if I said no.”

“… … How did you know?”

“Huh? You just kept saying that, right? That Dong-ha time-slipped? When you were talking to your hyungs, and when you came to see Choi Dong-hae. I was with you all the time.”

At Park Soo-chan’s words, Hong Young-pil hit his forehead with an awkward smile.

It was so natural that I missed it.

Because manager Park Soo-chan was with her so smoothly, she didn’t even realize that she had some experience in the entertainment industry.

Well, that’s true.

Now that I think about it, it’s stranger not to know, as Park Soo-chan said.

Sometimes I was careful, but other than those very rare times, most of the time I wasn’t careful.

Although he hides it from many people, when they are together, he is very straightforward when talking about things like Dong-ha’s time slip and the past.

Hong Young-pil exchanged glances with Yoon Tae-joo for a moment before opening his mouth.

“Do the other… friends know? Dong-chan and Tae-ri too?”

“You know?”

“But why didn’t you say anything? Until now?”

“They… well… they just don’t really have any particular thoughts about it. They pay a lot of money and treat their hyungs and friends well. And since they’re dedicated to Blue Porcelain at work, it’s also more comfortable because they don’t touch things. I don’t think there’s any reason to make a fuss about it, right?”

“… … Then why are you talking about it now?”

At Hong Young-pil’s words, Park Soo-chan touched his philtrum.

“I… … always go with you, right? Even when we move as a team, I usually take charge of the moving parts, right?”

“Yeah. Right?”

“That’s why. When I watch from the side… … Dong-ha looks a bit… … uneasy. I wonder if it has something to do with the time slip.”

“You look anxious… …?”

“yes.”

“As a celebrity, I feel insecure. What does that mean?”

“Yes. As a person. When I see Dong-ha, I feel like he’s walking a tightrope? I’ve seen friends like that, although it’s rare. It’s not exactly the same feeling as Dong-ha… … What should I call it… … Friends who seem to live in a different world?”

The three Blue Porcelain members are older.

For a member of a rock band that’s just debuted, he’s a bit too old.

Anyway, being older means that each person has accumulated their own experiences, so I could immediately understand what Park Soo-chan meant by anxiety.

“… … We should take better care of ourselves. Come to think of it, we probably put too much burden on Dong-ha. Thank you for telling me.”

“I take care of him, and my hyungs take care of him a lot too… … I don’t know. There’s a hole in Dong-ha’s heart, and I don’t know how to fill it. What should I fill it with… … I don’t know how to do that.”

As everyone’s mood became heavy, Lars Roemer, who was the only one who didn’t understand, tapped Yoon Tae-joo.

“Taeju. What is that guy saying now?”

“… … Dong-ha looks uneasy. Mentally.”

Lars Roemer laughed after hearing Yoon Tae-joo’s interpretation.

“Why are you making such an obvious point so difficult? That crazy little brat looks uneasy just by looking at him.”

“That’s not what I meant… … .”

“That’s not what I meant. I’ve seen a lot of talented people, but I’ve never seen anyone who has everything like that crazy kid. So, isn’t it inevitable to feel anxious? It’s even stranger if someone with that kind of talent at that age has a solid vessel.”

“… … .”

Instead of answering, Yoon Tae-joo stared at Lars Roemer.

Is this a difference in interpretation that arises from the difference in thinking between Westerners and Easterners?

Or is it because I am not that close to Dong-ha that I can be objective and look at it this way?

If not, it could simply be a matter of human differences.

Whatever it is, it’s not something that can be easily heard and passed over like Lars Roemer.

Park Soo-chan is not someone who speaks loosely, and he is someone who always takes care of Dong-ha. The fact that someone like him expressed concern meant that Dong-ha was quite anxious.

Lars Roemer continues nonchalantly.

“Go in love, okay?”

“?”

“Love makes people complete. It’s also a source of inspiration. Damn it. Now that I think about it, I think I know why I can’t write songs.”

“romantic relationship?”

“Yes, love. If you meet a woman, you’ll be so excited about it, right? If not, you’ll be so busy that you can’t wake up from the cheers of your fans. If you hear the screams of your fans and then hear the screams of your beloved woman at night, it’ll be the best. Then you won’t have time to feel anxious.”

Now that I hear it, it’s not wrong.

It’s true that Dong-ha is anxious about the time slip.

Because time travel took a lot from Dong-ha.

Among them, isn’t the biggest thing that Dong-ha has lost his loved one?

An uncle who I don’t even know the news about.

My deceased father.

Sometimes, when I’m drinking in the recording studio, I start talking about things like missing my first love.

One time, when Youngpil asked me to check from afar, I said I was scared.

He also grumbled, saying, “What am I going to do when I see my first love become another man’s wife?”

Isn’t that why we struggled to gather members?

Yoon Tae-joo, who had been lost in thought for a moment, picked up his cell phone and made a call to someone.

“Uh. Serin. About our debut. Can you pull it off as much as possible?”

-how much?

“As much as possible.”

―Hehehe… … I guess the world’s best Yoon Tae-joo also had a good debut. But I don’t think it’s just because of that. Anyway, I get it.

“Hmm. If you can catch the broadcast as soon as possible, that would be great.”

-Really? That’s nice to hear. But is Dong-ha going to do that too?

“I’ll persuade Dong-ha. So, plan your schedule accordingly.”

-Okay. If you want, I’ll give you a real hard time like a rookie. I’ll even take you to places like the Punggi Ginseng Festival.

“Do that.”

―… … I’m joking. This isn’t funny. Hang up.

After a few calls like that, Yoon Tae-joo swallowed a bitter smile as he picked up the disconnected phone.

I can’t help you with dating, but once you start working and give it your all, won’t it be a little better?

Well… … if I get a girlfriend during that time, I guess that would be okay.

Yoon Tae-joo took his eyes off his phone and looked at Park Soo-chan.

“But what about Dong-ha?”

“Nureong… … No, at your father’s house. Oh, but if I may ask this too. So, when Dong-ha calls your father Nureongi, Nureongi, is it because he’s actually your friend?”

“… … Yeah. That’s right.”

“aha.”

“That was a real secret. If I tell you… you know?”

“Yes. Of course. Dong-ha is my younger brother now. Anyway, Dong-ha’s nostrils at my father’s house… … No, Dong-ha always says that, so it’s become a habit for me too… … Anyway, he’s with Min-jae.”

* * *

When I’m bored, I find it quite pleasurable to blow my nose and tease someone.

When I see someone who is worse off than me, a smile forms on my face, right?

People are born that way.

The nostrils, which are far inferior to mine, open their mouths with a serious expression.

“older brother.”

“say.”

“What should I do?”

“What? No, no. I’ll guess. Are you… … having relationship troubles?”

At my words, Park Min-jae looks at me with a shocked expression.

A smile appears on my face again as I look at it, but ah… … it’s hard to hold back.

What could be serious about someone who gave up studying a long time ago?

But that doesn’t mean I’m old enough to join the military yet.

Then the answer is obvious.

“As expected… … There’s nothing you don’t know, hyung.”

“Of course. Tell me. I’ll tell you everything.”

“Me. I like your smile.”

She might have been my daughter.

It’s obvious that she’s Eunsol’s daughter.

It’s not like I feel anything strange… … It’s just that when I see her smile, I think of her mother?

The expression is a bit strange, but it’s not like he’s going to love his mom now. It’s not like he’s feeling any kind of melancholy by comparing Miso to Eunsol.

What I liked was the seventeen-year-old Eunsol, not someone who resembled Eunsol.

“You said I could meet you if I put on the gold button?”

“No. That’s not it… … She has a nice smile, and I like Eugene too.”

I stared blankly at Park Min-jae as he answered like that.

“Are you a bit too greedy?”

“… … That’s true, right?”

“That’s why. Even though they’re my classmates, one girl is now an idol and is loved by the entire nation. And another girl is my classmate, but isn’t she pretty? Aren’t you being too greedy for your title?”

Park Min-jae narrows his eyes and looks at me as his true feelings come out unintentionally.

Who cares?

I was just stating the truth.

“Brother. It’s Eugene. I like her.”

“This guy is crazy.”

“It’s true. Do you want to see this?”

Then, he takes out his phone and opens the message conversation window.

[(Strawberry drawing) Eugene: What are you doing?]

[Park Min-jae: Are you checking YouTube?]

[(Strawberry drawing) Eugene: Come out.]

[Park Min-jae: Huh? Oh… When? I can’t do it now?]

[(Strawberry drawing) Eugene: Come out. Don’t stay locked up in the house and be gloomy.]

Swish swish – I moved my finger to raise the chat window further.

[(Strawberry drawing) Eugene: What are you doing?]

[Park Min-jae: Just stay there.]

[(Strawberry drawing) Eugene: Come out.]

[Park Min-jae: Huh?]

[(Strawberry drawing) Eugene: Come out. Let’s go to the PC room.]

Most conversations go like this.

“… … .”

“Did you see?”

“……what?”

“Eugene is always the one who texts first. He keeps telling me to come out because he misses me.”

“Isn’t it just… … something like a tail?”

“Hey… … What’s wrong with you? Are you jealous right now?”

I hear the sound of the trust between the ruler and his subjects being broken.

Knock knock – is this only heard by my ears?

I lightly poked my finger into Park Min-jae’s eye, who was looking at me with distrust in his eyes.

“Ahhh! Why are you doing this?”

“Why are you opening your eyes like that? When you open them like that, it makes me want to stab you. Is this my fault? No, right? It’s your fault? Quick, tell me you were wrong.”

“… … I was wrong.”

“I feel even angrier after apologizing.”

He kicked Park Min-jae and pushed him into the corner.

To me, Nureongi opens the door and peeks his head out.

“What are you doing? Why are you bothering the child? Come out and eat.”

“… Mr. Ha.”

Jealousy… … That’s right.

No, I don’t chat with girls either, so why is he chatting with girls?

I quickly turned on my phone and went to Park Min-jae’s YouTube channel.

I’m still not very good at typing on a computer keyboard, but I’m used to using a cell phone.

[This new X is a total playboy! He’s a third-rate villain who just wants to grow his YouTube channel and seduce women!]

Ha… I think I’ll live a little.

I’m lonely… … I’m so depressed… … .
