Episode 65: The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl
Korean restaurant.
The sound of birds chirping is heard through the gap in the window frame.
The smell of grass lingering in the garden wafts across the threshold.
Outside the window, whenever the wind blew, the leaves rustled and collided with each other.
like that
Because it adds a beautiful view to the food.
‘Wow… the price is no joke.’
There is an extra zero added to the price.
It was really awkward.
Such an expensive restaurant.
So I quietly watch the manager flip through the menu.
I’m blind anyway, so I can’t tell even if I look at the menu.
I sat cross-legged and leaned back comfortably on the low chair.
While I was straightening my back like that.
Before we know it, the manager has finished ordering and is drinking tea.
“There will be articles about this on TV and in the newspapers a little later.”
“A rebuttal? Isn’t it a little late?”
“No. It’s a dating article. Mina and Jinsoo. They’re going to make an official announcement that they’re dating.”
The director’s lips were tinged with the faint scent of tea.
Is it because the tea tastes bitter? He frowns slightly.
“Is there a separate reason for the delay in the announcement?”
“There’s no particular reason. Lee Jin-soo is not a celebrity, he’s an ordinary person. That’s why the internal meeting took a long time.”
“···Why ordinary people?”
I tilt my head.
Just listening to the director’s words, the reason didn’t come to mind right away.
“Mina was totally against it. She was afraid that Jinsoo would get hurt because of her. That’s why she was reluctant to reveal it.”
“What kind of wound is it?”
“You saw the comments. For people who are not familiar with this world… it’s a bit harsh.”
And then the director sighs.
As the worries deepen, the green tea scent becomes stronger.
He keeps reaching for his teacup because his throat is so parched.
It seems that this director himself does not like the ending very much.
A situation where the third generation of a conglomerate is drawing aggro.
This problem would have been easily solved if she had revealed from the beginning who her real boyfriend was.
But then, I’m afraid that it might harm the binary.
It seemed like a more cautious approach.
“Jinsoo said okay, but I’m still worried.”
The director said that with a bitter smile.
While trying to lift the teacup again.
Just in time.
The food I ordered came out.
There is a brief pause in the conversation and a plate is placed on the table.
Refined Korean food.
I haven’t even picked up a spoon yet.
The dish looks boring just by looking at it.
“It’s complicated. The entertainment industry is complicated too.”
“But wouldn’t it be simpler than Youngjun’s socks?”
The manager glances at my big toe and jokes.
Why did you laugh with your mouth covered like that?
I was embarrassed so I hid my toes inside my thighs.
“···While you’re eating, why are you looking at my toes?”
“It’s okay. I like it.”
The manager smirks and picks up his chopsticks. “This is delicious. Try some galbijjim.” Then he starts putting seasoning on his mouth.
Director Lee acts as if nothing happened. Seeing that, I followed suit and used my chopsticks.
After chewing and swallowing the food like that for a long time.
suddenly.
The director looked as if he had just remembered something.
“That’s right, Youngjun.”
“yes?”
Take out your cell phone.
“Is this Youngjun?”
Then he thrusts his phone screen at me.
A long comment on Mina’s article.
When this manager asks me that outright, I feel like he’s caught me in a bad light.
What should I say in answer?
Even if it’s true, it’s a little funny, and even if it’s not, it’s a little strange.
So I opened my mouth and couldn’t say anything.
“Looking at your expression, you’re right.
One corner of the director’s mouth went up.
“How did you know?”
“His speech is just like Youngjun’s speech. If it weren’t for Youngjun, who else would write a comment like this?”
“···Is it that obvious?”
My past when I was active in another world.
I’m a little embarrassed by the numerous long comments.
I scratched my head awkwardly without realizing it.
“Thank you so much. I’m always the one who finds everything annoying… Really… I always get help from Youngjun.”
The director wipes the smile from his lips with a tissue.
“No. But more than that. How? Are you going to continue to collect malicious comments in the future?”
“No, it’s okay. It’s enough already. When the article comes out tomorrow, public opinion will die down.”
Well, that’s right. Both reporters and malicious commenters were scratching their heads at the keyword “third generation chaebol.”
Once people realize that he is not the third generation of a conglomerate, he will soon be forgotten.
A provocative story stays in the memory for a long time.
Because we live in a world where touching stories quickly disappear.
So, while talking with this director.
Suddenly.
I feel like I forgot to ask the most important thing,
“So when did you two start dating?”
I asked first, as if it wasn’t a big deal.
however.
An unexpected answer came out.
“Yesterday.”
“yes?”
“Actually, two people. I haven’t seen their faces yet.”
“Wait a minute. What about the man in the picture? He was linking arms with me.”
“She’s our employee. And… the friend in the picture with Mina… she’s a woman.”
The reporters completely missed the mark.
Mina contacted Jinsu in a hurry to avoid any misunderstanding.
Well. Actually, it seems like Mina also contacted Jinsoo using the excuse of an article. Director Lee laughs as he does so.
I was so dumbfounded by the manager’s words that I laughed along with him.
“So you didn’t even contact each other before the flyer came out?”
“Yes, Mina, you hesitated for a long time, and only contacted me after the article came out.”
“···”
It’s funny. It’s funny. I can’t help but laugh.
The malicious gossip has actually become a distraction.
A lover I’ve missed for a long time.
Stepping on the bridge laid by crows and magpies.
I was trying to cross to the other side.
**
Is it because the weather is humid? I feel a bit gloomy.
When Director Lee said he would give me a ride, I shook my head and said it was okay.
As soon as I get home, I take off the socks with holes in them and throw them in the trash.
And then, as usual, I unfold my phone.
-RedBlue Mina’s real lover. Her first love in middle school, not from a third generation chaebol.
I clicked on the article as if it was a given.
Push the LCD up.
The innocent love story between a young man and a young woman is told in a heartbreaking way.
I slowly scanned the article with my eyes.
At that time, Ive had a rule prohibiting trainees from dating.
Because of that, Mina was trying to move to another small agency.
Even though the debut is just around the corner.
Mina tried to give up her dreams for a while for love.
Binary didn’t want Mina to give up her dream because of him.
I sincerely hope that she succeeds.
So I unilaterally notified her that we were breaking up and cut off all contact.
In the end, I’ll just be watching from afar for all those years.
‘You’ve come a long way.’
No. I guess it’s just beginning.
Now, as this director was worried about, the future will be a problem.
A person who was living an ordinary life got involved with a celebrity.
The article did not reveal Binary’s occupation or personal information.
‘I’m sure the reporters will try to dig it up sooner or later.’
Not only that.
It won’t be the same as the innocent days I remember.
They may be confused by each other’s changes, and sometimes they may fight because of it.
Still, I hope you can endure it all and live happily.
It’s just a small wish from an ordinary fan.
After praying in my heart for their future,
Now, prepare to enter this world.
Scroll all the way to the bottom to see the comments on the article.
-The agency will sue all the malicious commenters. Thank you for your hard work.
-I said all the journalists should be sued too.
-Corner judges. Now we’re going to meet the real judge.
-The person who puts the car in neutral is the winner.
The attitudes of the inhabitants of this world changed as if by magic.
So much so that I thought I was dreaming.
I’m dumbfounded.
A mysterious world where fairies and monsters coexist.
In this confusing world.
I still have work to do.
“You really wrote a lot.”
I deleted my comment in a hurry.
My shameful traces.
That’s how I erase my past.
I hope this never happens again.
**
A few days passed.
As if it had burned down.
Mina’s dating scandal died down quickly.
Come out of this dreamlike world.
After I regained my leisurely life.
“It was just an alley. An alley! Yes, over there. Grab it. Shoot.”
I’m trying my best to enjoy each day.
“Oh, you missed that? Dude, your aim is really… oh my.”
Looking at Sohyun who was extremely angry.
“The mouse is acting weird. That’s why I suggested we move it.”
Traditional excuses pop up unconsciously.
The mouse landed heavily.
It was as if I was sinking into the sea, unable to breathe.
There was an issue with the mouse.
I definitely felt that way.
While our team was being pushed back little by little.
suddenly.
So out of the blue.
“Why doesn’t Uncle tell us to study?”
Da-eun turns her head and looks at me.
“···Huh? Suddenly?”
“Just… I also have to study hard to become an adult like my uncle, right?”
That can’t be true.
I didn’t study when I was in elementary school. No. I just didn’t study during my entire school years.
“It’s okay. Now is not the time to study.”
now.
The moment I was about to answer.
There appeared to be an angle at which it could be reversed.
Quickly check the bow gauge.
In an instant, use your bow to tie up all your enemies at the same time.
“Use the bow! The bow!”
He shouted urgently at Da-eun.
okay.
Now is the age when you should be busy with your studies, not your palace.
however.
Da-eun was still and missed the timing.
In that way, all the enemies I had tied up in the palace were scattered in all directions.
“ah···”
A short sigh escaped me without me knowing.
It’s a promotion match.
That made my heart ache even more.
Erin’s pain flows through her blood vessels and throughout her body.
Enduring such excruciating pain.
“It’s okay. It’s okay. It was close anyway.”
He smiled calmly and nodded towards Da-eun.
But despite my encouragement, Da-eun continues to make mistakes.
Even So-Hyeon, who rarely says anything to Da-Eun, twitches her lips.
Da-eun’s condition didn’t look good.
He looks like a child who has lost his soul.
at last.
“It’s okay. What’s wrong?”
Log out.
“No. It’s just… nothing much.”
Da-eun smiles awkwardly.
I was about to speak just now, but I think I swallowed something…
“I want to go out and talk.”
So I stood up from my seat and glanced at Sohyun and Junwoo.
The kids nodded their heads up and down as if they understood what I was saying, and then they got up and followed me.
So I come out of the PC room and head to the cafe.
Da-eun’s expression.
What should I say?
It was neither dark nor bright.
**
“Cake. Cake.”
At Sohyun’s words, I ordered a cake and a drink and sat down.
When I looked up, Da-eun was smiling brightly.
I rolled my eyes and looked at Sohyun, but she didn’t seem to know anything.
-Jiying.
The doorbell rang and I got up to get my drink.
As I wake up.
“Let’s go together. I can’t carry it alone because of the cake.”
He forcibly got Sohyun up.
So I left Junwoo and Da-eun behind and walked side by side with So-hyeon.
“Why is Da-eun like that? What happened at school?”
“I don’t know. I really don’t know. It’s been like that for days.”
Sohyun shook her head as if she didn’t know what was going on.
“Is YouTube not working well?”
“no.”
For a very short time while the drinks were being brought in.
I asked Sohyun many questions as if I was interrogating her.
It seemed like there was nothing to catch.
‘Why Da-eun?’
Junwoo and Sohyun had some similarities to me, so I could tell they were similar.
Da-eun is the child whose personality is the most different from mine.
I couldn’t figure out what was going on at all.
It doesn’t seem like a big deal, but it still worries me.
