The malicious member is back! Episode 161

* * *

Ever since we started living together, our T.O.J. members’ routines after arriving at their accommodations have been almost similar.

“I hate Hwaseong hyung… Today, I’m going to write first… !”

“Oh, please. I’m really sleepy today. Are you saying you don’t have the confidence to wait until your turn? “Siwoo, make some concessions just for today!”

“Mate. Whichever of you washes first, please wake me up when you’re done. I’m exhausted, ugh… .”

“Uh oh, Logan! Don’t sleep. Even a few days ago, I couldn’t wake up. And then I catch a really cold… ah! Yongyong hyung! Foul, foul! “Where is the one that suddenly goes in first?”

“Yes, here.”

“It’s like that all the time, all the time!”

“If you feel unfair, you should have been born first, Hwaseong. “Brother, I’m coming in!”

Decide who will use the bathroom first, doze off until your turn comes, wash up, and then fall asleep.

“Jaeha. Should I have something delivered? I think the kids will all be hungry if we just sleep… .”

“Hmm, I think there are some leftover side dishes that Hwaseong’s parents sent me earlier. You can eat rice with it, or just plain chicken… ? Ah, Chunyong. Everything was washed. “Wouldn’t you like to eat something?”

“haha… It’s okay, Jaeha. Oh, you’re so tired today? “I think I should go to bed early.”

Or, use the free time to stuff something into your hungry stomach and get motivated for tomorrow’s upcoming schedule.

Of course, today I refused all the rough touches and invitations from the other members, took a shower faster than anyone else, and headed to bed.

As much as I lived a dissipated and lazy life before, I decided this time to live more sincerely than anyone else.

[Jeong Yeon-woo: ^^]

“Ugh… .”

I let out a short sigh as I looked at the messages filling up the smart watch screen.

Now you just send a smiling emoticon without even writing anything.

The pressure here was greater than the message from Tae-ina An, who was whining to please reply, or Dan-woo Han, who clearly spent a lot of time typing.

“I think the conversation is roughly over, so I’ll go then. “You guys also finish your schedule well.”

“Uh, wait. Chunyong. Would you mind giving me your number? “I’d like to keep in touch in the future!”

“… “Weren’t you tired of filming ‘Catch Me Catch You’ with me, Taeya?”

“huh? It’s not?”

“What you wanted has now come true, so why should we contact you again…” .”

“no way. That’s it. Is it okay to contact you? All you have to do is reply to me once in a while!”

“… Kim Chun-yong. Give me your number too. “You changed your phone.”

I guess the difference is that in the first place, those guys took my number as if they were robbing me, and Yeonwoo suddenly gave me his smart watch.

If not, then whatever.

“Do you have something in mind? Oh, if I listen to this, may I ask you something?”

“I can give you something better than that. maybe.”

“… Something better? “Do you know what I’m asking?”

It may be because I feel pressured to somehow write the blank check I threw myself.

“… Write.”

I clicked my tongue briefly, threw myself on the bed, and began to slowly tap on the keyboard of my small smart watch.

A ‘better thing’ that I decided to give to Yeonwoo, who looked out for my convenience and helped me throughout the filming of Catch Me Catch You, whether it was noticeable or not.

You might be wondering what a rookie who has just debuted has to offer to a senior, but there is definitely something there.

So, something that only I, who knows the future, can give.

Even Yeonwoo hyung, who was mysterious, unsure of what he was thinking, and lived only based on his own interests, could not know everything.

Of course, you have to know a lot.

[Sledix Jooyoung, sweet date with Billy from girl idol group Lily J… . “I also bought you a ring.”]

[ Jooyoung♡Billy became more famous after being caught on a secret dating feed?]

But, how do you know when a team member’s dating rumor will break out?

Although it hasn’t been revealed yet, the dating rumor between senior Jooyoung and senior Billy was one of the incidents that shook the idol world to a great extent.

A relationship between a rookie female idol who has not yet accumulated much experience and is aiming for popularity, and a member of the first-tier male idol group Sledix.

Not only did Entergate, a representative yellow press in the Korean entertainment industry, get so excited that it made the headlines, but there was also an uproar in the community and social media.

“Billy, I heard you came to the club today? Rex, shouldn’t you go and say thank you?”

“What are you talking about… “Give me another shot, man.”

“What are you talking about? Your article has been a bit muted because of the dating rumor between senior Jooyoung and senior Billy. Aren’t you grateful? And, as a token of gratitude, Rex paid for our drinks today… .”

“Then I’ll do the math, so you’ll have to pay compensation for throwing up here…” Ugh.”

“Hey, hey! “Don’t pretend to throw up on purpose!”

Well, it became a hot topic among the bad guys I hung out with.

“… … .”

I quietly recalled the memory of that time and tapped the top of the smart watch, which was blinking because its battery was almost dead, with my finger.

“ah. Thank you, senior Jooyoung!”

“Why are you thanking me for water? Our manager is giving you hot packs, so don’t forget to take them. therefore… Mr. Chunyong, right? “I know because Yeonwoo is interested.”

“Haha, yes. Thanks to , I feel a little better… hmm? “Senior, I think you’re calling?”

“Suddenly I get a phone call, wow! Now, wait a minute!”

“… haha.”

Considering that I had glanced at Jooyoung, who stopped talking to me and hurriedly ran away from the crowd, it seemed like he was doubting that they were in a relationship.

Still, it was clear that Yeonwoo wasn’t able to capture it accurately.

If Yeonwoo had known, would the dating rumor have broken out?

He must have arranged in advance what to do about the article by handing out bottles of high-end liquor to reporters he knew.

“Wow, Yeonwoo… “I’m drinking a lot today.”

“hmm? … haha. There was another guy who didn’t do as I told him and got into big trouble again. really… “Why is my learning ability so poor?”

“Is that really my story, bro?”

“Well, Rex, you don’t have a very high learning ability either. It’s not about you though. So, don’t throw away your drink just because you’re being pressured. If you’re not going to drink it, give it to me.”

I remember Yeonwoo’s drinking drastically increased due to the dating rumors, so this is perfect for ‘something better’.

[Kim Chun-yong: Of course I didn’t forget what I was supposed to give, senior!]

[Jeong Yeon-woo: Can I ask what it is?]

[Jeong Yeon-woo: I tell you in advance that I do not accept alcohol gifts ^^]

[Kim Chun-yong: ^^;;]

[Kim Chun-yong: Ah, this is what I have to give when we meet]

[Kim Chun-yong: I will contact you again when I see you soon]

[Kim Chun-yong: You don’t have to reply. Rest comfortably ^0^]

“… after.”

I was surprised to get a reply so quickly, but I still managed to finish the reply safely.

Although I vaguely said, ‘I’ll see you soon,’ there wasn’t really a lie in that sentence.

[Aiming for the music industry in the second half of the year again… Sledix regular album ‘Dream in a Dream’ logo image released]

[Sledix, Serenia, Choi Ga-on, ToZ… ‘The second half of the year must be avoided’ Idols’ troubles]

By the time our Tiose’s ‘Hide and Seek’ activities are completed, Sledix will make a comeback, and even if we can’t meet due to a change in schedule, we will meet on the stage of the upcoming year-end music festival.

“Huh… .”

The name of our Tiose, who is among prominent idols.

It was such a touching moment, but as soon as I put down the smart watch, notifications were pouring in like crazy on my phone, which was set to silent.

[Message arrived! Recipient: Bomb (end of removal)]

[Message arrived! Recipient: Han Dan-woo]

[Message arrived! Recipient: Hobin hyung]

[Message arrived! Recipient: JDS Crew Teacher Jindasol]

[(Advertisement) You must enter immediately!& at least 1 hour later, up by at least 1#6#%! Click the link to check information ▷ … ]

I haven’t received any calls from my family telling me to come, and I’m just being bombarded with messages and advertisements that I don’t really want to see right now.

What is this, really?

“Ugh… .”

Not only did I turn my phone upside down, but Yeonwoo smashed his smart watch into the dresser as well, and I fell asleep again, looking at the ceiling of my dorm room.

Now that I’ve finished my work, I also need some time to catch my breath.

Just like our Tiose’s debut activities.

“Jaeha. “So, how many times are we left in our music room?”

“Probably about four times. hmm… If it’s less, it’s less, if it’s a lot, it’s a lot. Before that, I think I need to try to guess the parts that don’t match the choreography. Because I have to finish well. Chunyong said he should definitely try it.”

“… I had no idea this conversation would suddenly lead to extra practice, haha! … okay. I need to finish well. that’s right. “Don’t be embarrassed to see your fans.”

Due to the nature of idols these days, who return with a repackage album after a short 2 to 3 week promotion, it was time for our T.O.Je’s ‘Hide and Seek’ activities to come to an end next week.

“Ah, everyone. There will be a repackage album concept meeting next Tuesday. So, tomorrow we will film for a music broadcast and hold a fan signing event, and that’s the end of our schedule. “I’m on vacation until Monday.”

“omg! They say you can rest for two days… ? Crazy, crazy! Wow, then I will definitely play like crazy… .”

“Ah, Director Yoonha Moon delivered the concept draft in advance. “They say you should read it all before Tuesday.”

“… All of this? “I think it’ll be 8, 80 pages?”

“Hmm. I can’t play crazy games, Mars. haha… .”

Thanks to this, I got a short two-day vacation, but I had to talk about the repackage album and preparations for the year-end music festival stage.

As I was quietly sorting things out, I couldn’t help but think a lot.

After coming back like this, should I say that the time I ran without stopping is flashing through my mind?

After crying at the sight of my family, I immediately went on a survival show, later kicked out the guy who was planning on leaving for China, and debuted again.

We resolved the conflict between the members and practiced our debut song, which we heard for the first time.

… I kicked out the problematic (former) manager, and this time, I even solved a problem with another group that involved me.

Of course, there were many good things along the way.

“Hey, Chunyong! Gao Yan sent me a message asking if I could appear on his YouTube channel for a while after his activities are over!”

“Ah really? … “I think it would be okay for you, me, and Ryota to go out together sometime.”

“Got it. It seems like Ryota still comes to Korea often these days. “I wonder if they are preparing something?”

Like meeting a new member, Logan, or becoming closer to people I hadn’t had a proper relationship with before.

“Yes, Mom. I sent my album to my sister, so please tell her to check the delivery locker. Yes, thank you. i love you. “Please take care of your meal.”

“… Chunyong hyung. Parents, this is… ?”

“uh? Uh… that’s right. It’s mother. “My sister ignored all my communications.”

“Brother, to your family… Saying I love you, really… Wow, you are good.”

“… Haha, why don’t you send a message to your brother saying you love him? “You might like it.”

“That’s a bit… !”

I was able to treat my family better, and I was able to talk more openly with my members.

Is it because I try my best and live sincerely, unlike the days when my nickname was ‘Trash’?

It’s a lot of work, and it’s very rewarding.

However, when looking at all of this, there was one thing that remained.

So, so, so, so crazy… .

“Lord, I’m dying… .”

That I’m tired.

Come to think of it, I tried to catch my breath by spending time with my family before coming into the dorm.

Due to an issue that suddenly arose, I even had to give up that time to work.

It’s been so long since I’ve had a proper rest.

Since lounging around was part of my daily routine during the Rex Garbage era, I couldn’t figure out what it was like to have a good rest.

But I can’t spend it like those days… .

It’s been a long time since I’ve had two days to rest, so what on earth am I supposed to do?

“Should I try reinstalling the game on my phone? Oh, I don’t want to look at my phone… .”

Just like that, I was momentarily thinking about my rest plan from this evening to tomorrow night.

“… Chunyong. ruler?”

“uh? Yoo-chan? … “I’m not sleeping yet.”

“Oh, thank goodness! Then, would you like to come out for a moment? … “I have something I want to say.”

For some reason, Yoo-chan, with a very determined expression on his face, opened the door and came to see me.
