Episode 82. Dong-ha, the stage, and the whales (3)
I seem to have gained some abilities after time slipping.
No, I’m sure.
It’s not the same, but I got it. One thing is clear.
Did Dongshik hyung do that before?
They say that when you travel through space and time, you are exposed to gamma rays. I think that’s why.
It’s not about vocals, guitar, or songwriting skills.
That was originally done well.
I felt a moment of regret at the sight of the woman in front of me.
Is it a revolving door or a lantern?
Anyway, something keeps passing by before my eyes.
Lee Beom-seok, a mixed breed of yellow rascal who curses at me like he’s in his twenties, but acts serious at the hospital where he works, carrying a backpack and saying “ahem.”
Park Min-jae, a potential criminal who chases me around with his nostrils swollen shut.
Yoon Tae-joo, the head of a conglomerate, is an ambitious man who wants to have the world and says he will not give in anymore.
Kim Dong-sik, an emotional drummer, sheds tears whenever he holds a chicken leg while saying that his sister-in-law is frying chicken.
Hong Young-pil, a keyboardist with excessive female hormones who cannot sleep because he thinks of his daughter Dae-yoon and sister-in-law, not to be outdone by the emotional drummer.
Kwak Moon-ki, the wireless charging Robocop who follows Yoon Tae-joo around.
Park Soo-chan, a man who dreams of becoming a conglomerate manager rather than a celebrity manager.
Dongchan is a good person. I still don’t know his last name.
And there’s even a stylist sister who’s always staring blankly into space.
There are more than these.
Jiha, Noh-ttang Woo-yeol, and Shiba Jun-ho, who were together during the Nae-Pop-dol era.
By far the best is the devil hag’s savior.
So what power did I gain from time slip?
Abnormal people gather around me.
I became magnetized when I was exposed to gamma rays.
So the abnormalities of the world come to me like a magnet… … .
“puppy?”
As I said that, the woman in front of me lowered her head and spoke in a creepy voice.
“No… … strong… … not… … .”
And then knock-knock-knock.
Are those tears or saliva falling to the floor?
Well, if you drool in this situation, it’s not weird; you’d be crazy.
So, I opened my mouth, convinced that it was tears.
“Why are you crying? Who is crying?”
“Ah… … That… … I’m sorry… … I’m a fan… … so I came… … to get an autograph… … or something… … uh… … I don’t… … know… … look… … throw it away… … uh… … sob… … .”
“This is tricky. Really.”
“Wow… … What a shameless guy.”
I can hear Dong-sik hyung’s voice from behind. He says it in a distorted voice like a mosquito, trying to hide it, but other people won’t know if they hear it. I can’t hear who it is.
“Shut up. If I really had no sense of humor, this woman wouldn’t be alive by now.”
At my words, the woman raises her head, looks at me, and holds back tears.
What can I do since it’s already been decided… … I feel resentful at the same time.
How did you hide it?
Huh? I went up on stage with my identity hidden, and you just watched it.
As I was sighing, the God of All Things Success, Yoon Tae-joo, presented a solution.
Of course, he didn’t open his mouth and speak without thinking like Dong-sik. He was sending a text message to someone.
And really… … maybe not even 5 minutes had passed?
With a clanking sound, Mr. Kwak Moon-ki entered the waiting room.
“Please sign.”
“……yes?”
Opening her eyes wide and nervous… … I don’t even know her name. She keeps repeating something about puppy. Since I don’t know, let’s just say puppy woman. Anyway, I hand the document to the puppy.
“This is a confidentiality agreement. Can you keep everything that happened in this room a secret? Our terms of confidentiality are at the bottom of the document.”
“… … 100 million?”
The puppy girl looked at Secretary Kwak Moon-ki with a surprised expression.
Wow… … oh, but I was surprised too.
100 million isn’t the name of someone’s dog.
The puppy girl, who had been staring at the indifferent eyes of Secretary Kwak Moon-ki for a long time, waved her hand.
It seems that he knew that the documents that Mr. Kwak Moon-ki presented were genuine.
“Ah… … Ah… … No, no. No. I came as a fan… … Ah, also… … This much money for me… … Really… … It’s also scary… … I’ll keep the secret that Vocal A is moving, so this money is okay.”
I couldn’t stand to watch so I intervened.
“You said you would keep it a secret, but you said it again.”
“yes?”
“I told you again. Will you be like that even after you leave the waiting room? Oh, I can’t tell you because I decided to keep the fact that I’m Vocal A a secret. So?”
“Ah… … No… … .”
I looked closely at the puppy woman’s face, which was watching me again.
I was so out of it that I couldn’t even look at your face properly.
The eyes are large compared to the small face, but the corners of the eyes are droopy, giving them a very gentle appearance.
Clear skin.
Her eyes, nose, and mouth are so closely spaced that she doesn’t exactly look beautiful, but she’s quite… … cute… … and… … pretty.
Because I turned twenty-one this year.
Are you younger than me?
I don’t think he’s a middle school student. He doesn’t seem that young, but he feels like he’s in high school.
In particular, her face without any makeup confirms the feeling of being a student.
Now that I’m in the 21st century, I’ve noticed that all adult women wear makeup.
“Student. Are you really going to keep the secret?”
When I call him, he points to himself and tilts his head.
“… …Me?”
“Why are you answering like that? Are you saying you won’t keep a secret without taking money?”
“Ah… … No, no! I will protect you! I will protect you!”
“Right. You have to protect it. If you’re a fan.”
I got up from my seat and snatched the documents that Mr. Kwak Moon-ki was holding out.
When I flipped over the document that was stuck in there, I saw a blank white page with nothing written on it.
“I’ll sign it for you. Keep it as a family heirloom. Study hard.”
“… … ?”
“I promise to keep my promise to keep a secret.”
“… … Ah, yes. I will definitely! Keep it!”
“Okay. I trust you and let you go. Do you understand?”
As he said that and patted the head once, the puppy girl student’s expression was strange.
“… … .”
“Why are your eyes open like that?”
“Ah… … I don’t think that’s what I should be saying now… … but why are you speaking informally to me… … and patting my head… … that’s why.”
“You’re a fan? And you’re a student?”
“Ah… … I’m a fan, but… … I’m not a student… … .”
“Aren’t you a student?”
“yes…….”
“Then what is it?”
“Kang… … Haji… … No, I. am Hwanhon. I play guitar and sing in Hwanhon.”
The puppy stepped away for a moment and looked at the woman’s face.
no.
No matter how much I look at it, no matter how much I disassemble it, it’s not true.
That can’t be right.
“Where did you get the lie? You’re going to die. That girl is so sexy.”
Under the sky.
I raised my fist to put into practice my belief that no one is unequal regardless of age or gender.
of course.
It’s not really a hit, it’s just a threat.
Because my hands that have to play the guitar are precious.
At that moment, a long shadow appears behind me and Youngpil whispers in my ear.
He said that it was a real marriage. He said he knew because he taught it at a practical music academy when he was doing all sorts of things.
* * *
The puppy woman leaves the waiting room.
We took a short break.
Oh man, this is hard.
I’m so tired.
Because only strange people gather around me.
But I believe that he will keep the secret since he is my comrade who does rock together.
“Why do I keep saying puppy, puppy again?”
At my words, Youngpil smiles faintly.
“I think Haji was a little embarrassed. I saw her when she was a student, and even then, when I asked her her name, she said, ‘Haji.’ Later, I found out that her last name was ‘Kang,’ so she didn’t give me her last name.”
“I should have told you that earlier. I’m the only one who can’t understand what you’re saying.”
“I did that because I thought you might notice if I told you.”
“… … That was good. You didn’t say anything like, “I don’t have any sense,” like someone without any sense. Why are you making a mosquito sound? It’s even stranger.”
Dong-sik pretended not to hear what I said and continued playing the air drum by himself.
If I hadn’t been practicing like crazy for the past month, I would have been freaking out by now.
“That guy from earlier is coming out.”
At Tae-joo’s words, my gaze turns to the monitor in the waiting room.
Even though it’s a rehearsal, I’ve already finished putting on makeup.
To be honest, I trusted him and sent him because Youngpil hyung guaranteed it.
How is that face the face of that older sister from Hwanhon? That’s ridiculous.
As expected.
The vocalist of Hwanhon, who is carrying a guitar and showing off her fiery sexy charisma, stands in front of the microphone.
A proud expression that is almost provocative.
I stared blankly at it for a moment before opening my mouth.
“Is this really the same person? That girl from earlier was this older sister?”
“That’s right. When women put on makeup, their mood definitely changes.”
“This isn’t that much of a difference?”
“There are some friends who change their mood when they go on stage. That’s why they seem more different. But look. Do you see that face from before?”
“… … I don’t know. No matter how much I look at it.”
I opened my eyes half-heartedly and looked at the vocalist on the monitor.
I just noticed from looking at your face that you have a tattoo on your leg…?
“This… … Sister, you’re a scary sister? You have a tattoo.”
Then, Youngpil takes off his sunglasses, puts his face on the monitor, and opens his mouth.
“This isn’t a tattoo, it’s a drawing on a stocking.”
“Is there such a thing?”
“Yes.”
“How do you know that, hyung?”
“……haha.”
At my words, Youngpil smiled awkwardly and put his sunglasses back on.
The little detective inside me deduced something from that awkward appearance.
“I guess you and your sister-in-law are on really good terms.”
“… … .”
“Some people don’t get to date at a young age because they’re too busy supporting the elderly. But aren’t those elderly people really happy doing everything they can?”
“If you do like Dong-ha, you won’t be able to date even if it’s not us.”
Again, the teddy bear brother Dongshik intervenes without notice.
“Why me? What? There’s a line of girls who like me?”
“Didn’t you clench your fist at that guy earlier?”
“What is that? And do you think I really meant to hit you? I was just being sarcastic, like, talking nonsense.”
“Didn’t you really break CEO Koo’s wrist last time?”
“… … That’s because that lady is very strong. If she hadn’t, I would have been defeated.”
“… … .”
“It’s true. If you don’t believe me, try arm wrestling with that lady. She’s definitely a piece of shit.”
“… … .”
Dongsik sighs and instead of answering, he hits the air drum again.
I tried to get the other brothers’ consent by looking into their eyes, but no one opened their mouth to protect their leader.
Both Suchan and Dongchan… … are just avoiding my eyes.
I can’t even make eye contact with my stylist sister.
I see a ghost, my sister.
I just stare into space all day long.
At that moment, I screamed in anger.
“Just wait! I’ll show you what a rock star’s love is like! When I get there, I’m sorry I didn’t know you, Dong-ha. Just keep saying things like that.”
“Phew.”
“… … Me? The second Mick Jagger… … .”
“Khuhhh… … !”
under…….
When I see you laughing with your face covered and making a snickering sound, I want to throw you all away.
In particular, Tae-joo hyung laughs the hardest.
It hurts the most to be stabbed in the back by someone you originally trusted.
Why did I go around looking for these guys to enjoy some kind of wealth and honor?
I was about to say something, but eventually I closed my mouth.
These guys know everything about me, so I can’t say anything.
Even if you threaten them, it will be difficult to frighten these old men who have been through all kinds of hardships and even somersaults…
My nostrils believe me when I say things like that. I believe in the Lord God, that’s what they said…
Come to think of it, that kid with the nostrils is really kind.
I rummaged through my belongings and took out my cell phone.
Now that I think about it, I’ve been a bit negligent about my nostrils.
Knock knock, I sent a message to my followers with a flick of my fingers.
I’m giving you all the love I couldn’t give you before.
[How are you? What are you doing? Are you eating?]
