The Skill of an Idol That Never Fails

82 episodes

When I listened to the description of the pictorial, it felt like I was emphasizing the part of being a producer. It feels kind of laggy and s*xy.

After all, I, the eldest of the team, started the adult concept first… … . But it doesn’t look like it’s going to work right now, so I’ll have to do some exercise. hahahaaha… … .

Still, the other members often took pictorials, so it was an atmosphere where the sun was slowly shining and I wanted to have a pictorial. by the way.

“… … Solo picture? I? in a magazine?”

I was muttering to myself, so Park Seon-jae, who appeared with a snack, said:

“Your hyung is on TV every day, so is it strange to be in a magazine?”

“Interesting. Well, anyway, if I take a picture, my parents will like it. It’s real.”

Park Seon-jae nodded at my words.

“Yeah, it’s real for adults. My grandmother also scrapped my pictorial and put it on the wall.”

I also accepted the pictorial because I thought my parents would like it.

After accepting that, we got up to shoot KQS YouTube content. Fortunately, Shin Ji-woon arrived, and we were all able to finish filming together.

It was two in the morning when we finished filming. I was going to say hello, but the film crew brought me a cake. We greeted each other and took a picture with the cake. Fortunately, the inside of the filming set was warm, so we shared the cake together.

And on the way back to the dorm, I posted a picture I took with the cake on the X bus.

[Haewon: Birthday cake! I’m going to eat a lot of delicious food today. Since it’s my birthday, the sunbeams also eat delicious food and it’s getting really cold today, so make sure to wear a scarf before going out.]

After posting like that, I comment on it, but it seems that the sunbursts these days respond to my words, ‘I’ll take care of it’. I guess I’m a bit nagging.

[↳ You are doing well!!!! Is your short name a dream?]

[↳The cake also resembles Haewon, so he prepared something auspicious hahahaahaha

[↳ I have to put up a list of what I ate to believe it]

Of course, no matter how many places there are fans, there are occasional malicious comments, but now you can see and move on. What I can see is that there are a lot more comments from fans.

Looking at the comments, there were a lot of words of thanks for being born. Those words were so good.

[Haewon: Thank you for being born, Sunshine.]

I wrote it with that in mind. Curiously, I don’t feel so nervous anymore just talking to my fans like this.

The next few days were relatively easy.

On the last day of 2023, I went to buy alcohol with my manager hyungs, wearing a hat and Hwang Sae-byeok. Stork Dawn said.

“Let’s buy makgeolli.”

“Aren’t there too many masters and servants?”

I bought soju, beer, vodka, and wine, and now I also bought makgeolli. Since food is so important, it seems that the castle needs to be wide enough to fit the side dishes. Stork Dawn said.

“You don’t know what the kids will like. But do you buy Beer Car X?”

“Uh, I like the KaX of wheat.”

“I still don’t know why I eat wheat.”

“I don’t know. As I drank it while drinking it until it was finished, the wheat became more and more delicious.”

Anju said that Hwang Sae-byeok had an idea and a plan, so he made it himself. Oddly enough, Hwang Sae-byeok doesn’t seem to consume stamina at all while cooking.

We returned to the hostel and started cooking before January 1st.

“Saebuk, how is this?”

“Oh, well fried.”

I decided to eat tteokbokki on January 1st, so I decided to cook soup tteokbokki, assorted tempura, and meat. And I was in charge of tempura, so I guess I have a talent. Not sure. Because Stork Byeok could be just being generous when it comes to cooking… … .

By the time I finished eating, it was almost twelve o’clock. For the bored youngest, I also bought drinks by type. I told the youngest

“If you guys get drunk, throw them in your room.”

Then Min Ji-ho raised his hand and asked.

“Can’t we just throw it in the living room and let us go into the room?”

… … Is it reasonable?

“Yeah, let’s do that.”

After answering, I sat down in front of the table in the living room.

He didn’t pour alcohol in particular, he chose his own drink and decided to drink it accordingly. At first, everyone was more interested in food than alcohol.

“Tteokbokki was crazy. what?”

“The best tteokbokki I ate this year… … Ah, this is my first tteokbokki this year. It is the most delicious including last year.”

“Praise the quick tempura. Because I did.”

“The tempura is delicious too.”

“Nicely fried.”

We ate and ate and ate and ate and ate.

And only after the stomach started to fill slowly, the alcohol began to disappear. When I was a bit drunk, I picked up a cigarette I borrowed from manager Park Joong-woon. Only one on January 1st. I had promised that in advance.

“I’ll come out.”

It’s a non-smoking apartment, and I went out with manager Park Joong-woon to break the drink and it was snowing. It was dawn, so there was no one on the road, only a few people passing by.

I stood in an empty alley, lit a cigarette and lit it.

When something warm touches my drunken body and only my lips in sub-zero temperatures, the tension is relieved. It’s been half a year since I smoked a cigarette, so I liked it so much that I got a smirk. Much better than I expected.

“Wow, what?”

Manager Park Joong-woon laughed at my words. As a smoker, it seems that my feelings are sympathetic.

I quit smoking right after taking a sip. Manager Park Joong-woon said in a panic.

“Why, what are you doing?”

“If I smoke all of this, I don’t think I’ll be able to quit at all. I just won’t smoke for the rest of my life.”

Manager Park Joong-woon clicked his tongue at my words.

“It’s disgusting. Can you stop smoking a cigarette after half a year with just one sip, man?”

“So. That’s it.”

It wasn’t a matter of will. Rather, it seems to be because of the tendency to become addicted. I want to sing better. In order to write more songs, I wish I had better physical strength. I also want to take good care of my skin.

I wanted to hear fans say thank you for being born to me for a longer period of time. With that in mind, it wasn’t that difficult to quit smoking right now.

Manager Park Joong-woon said.

“Go in first.”

“Why don’t you look at your eyes? Slow down.”

After I spoke, I put my hands in my jumper pockets and looked up at the sky.

“I am twenty-one.”

“Envy you.”

Manager Park Joong-woon’s answer made me laugh.

When I returned to the dorm, the members were slowly getting drunk in the meantime. The maknae was busy giggling at his older brothers, who were funnier than usual.

Rather, the sane people fell asleep faster than the drinkers and went into the room one by one, and the four adults drank even more.

I really hate drinking games, but Joo-won Ahn wanted to play, so I couldn’t do it, and then I kept losing and drank a lot of alcohol. When I was a little confused about whether this was a dinner party or eating for fun, I got drunk and started to organize the top.

“He also cleans up his drinking habits.”

Stork said he didn’t understand, so I replied.

“Because I usually want to organize myself too much, but I’m suppressed. Look at this crazy hostel… … .”

It wasn’t that there was dust or anything, but things were scattered all over the place because the luggage was too much. Still, I’m glad I’ll be moving soon.

I got up from my seat while tidying up the table.

“I suddenly want to see the youngest.”

“Oh, me too.”

Stork dawn followed me. Only today, the youngest members gathered in the main room to sleep, and when I opened the door, the owner of the room, Min Ji-ho, was sleeping on a blanket on the floor, while the other two were sleeping on the bed.

I said as I got drunk, leaning my tilting head against the door frame.

“Oh, my cubs are cute.”

Then Shin Ji-woon responded.

“Where is your cub here?”

“Your kid? you? are you?”

Shin Ji-woon immediately fell to his knees at my words.

“Ugh, I thought it was Ahn Joo-won because I was drunk.”

“My knees are so light… … . In the first place, it’s all because Ahn Ju-won is a gradation.”

When I quarreled like that, Joo-Won Ahn responded.

“I know the pain of fast. If you raise one year, they say that you raise it, and if you lower it by one year, they say that you pretend to be young… … .”

It was pitiful for me to say that, so I turned my arrow to Hwang Sae-byeok this time.

“You should have cleaned it up.”

“You should have There wasn’t.”

“… … .”

uh Suddenly I’m the culprit.

Shin Ji-woon added.

“For two years, I must have spent a lot of time in the room, but I chewed up all the contact.”

They also drank alcohol, but when I was seriously worried that this might be the case, nice Ahn Joo-won said.

“You came out anyway.”

“Okay, you’re out anyway.”

When I said that, the members laughed a little. It seems like this story will come out every time I drink. Ha, I’m already tired.

Back in the living room, Shin Ji-woon asked Ahn Joo-won in a more serious atmosphere.

“Are you going to play?”

“… … Aren’t you asking too directly?”

“Ask me a difficult question.”

“I don’t know now. Look at the situation.”

Joo-won Ahn gave a vague answer and asked Hwang Sae-byeok.

“you?”

“I? How many months with strangers?”

“Ah, indeed.”

At that, the four of us giggled at the same time. I guess I was drunk. It’s funny that it’s nothing.

While talking like that, Stork Dawn murmured.

“Can we go together in a year and a half?”

Shin Ji-woon responded realistically to that.

“If we all make a lot of concessions, we can do it.”

Then Hwang Sae-byeok nodded and said.

“I will do well. I want to remain in our team even if I make a lot of concessions.”

We were convinced that Hwang Sae-byeok was drunk by saying something that a sane person would never say. Stork said while looking at me.

“But anyway, if you pick a good song, will it stay in the first light because of that?”

I answered that.

“Well, I can’t give a traitor a song.”

So the members giggled, and Ahn Joo-won said.

“That’s the scariest thing.”

* * *

“… … What did these hyungs do last night?”

Park Seon-jae muttered while looking at his brothers sleeping in the living room and the papers in the middle. Han Hyo-seok looked down at the same thing and said.

“I don’t know at all.”

Ahn Joo-won wrote only one piece of paper full of graffiti in neat handwriting.

[For traitors only death]

Min Ji-ho said while holding the paper.

“Written in red letters. scared… … .”

“Why do you put it on if you say it’s scary?”

Whether Han Hyo-seok was stunned or not, Min Ji-ho stuck the paper next to the drug ban poster. The three looked at the papers. I can barely guess what you were talking about the day before.

“But what is this? Curse?”

As Park Seon-jae held up a piece of paper with the words ‘I love you’ written on it several times, Joo-won Ahn was the first to wake up.

“Ah, that. Dawn said that she was drunk and that she continued to love me, so I told her not to tell me but to write.”

“Did he say he loved you? really? I also want to have a drink with Dawn Yi-hyung.”

Park Seon-jae spoke and woke Hwang Sae-byeok, and Min Ji-ho asked excitedly.

“What about the other hyungs? Didn’t you take a picture?”

“I was so drunk that I didn’t have the spirit to take pictures. Haewon habitually cleans up and beats him a lot. Jiwoon has an old personality, and I… … .”

After Ahn Joo-won stopped talking, Shin Ji-woon, who buried his head in the blanket, said.

“Keep feeding. He’s a laughing idiot.”

And after forcing him to stand up, he woke the other two as well. Hwang Sae-byeok didn’t seem to want to get up at all, so he dragged him into his room, and Jung Hae-won also got up swearing, saw Ahn Joo-won and murmured and fell down again.

“No, damn it, why is that bastard okay? … .”

“I guess I don’t have a hangover.”

When Ahn Joo-won said with a hahahaaha smile, Jung Hae-won threw the cushion. Then he suddenly raised his head. Then, looking into the air with a wrinkled expression, I asked the members.

“Is there anything that could cause a crisis now?”

“It’s January 1st… … Romance rumor?”

In response to Park Seon-jae’s reply, Jung Hae-won hurriedly checked his cell phone and was relieved to find out that there were no articles.

“Well, this is not a matter of overcoming… … .”

Jung Hae-won, who was preparing to go out at any time while muttering like that, stopped immediately after discovering the anti-drug and anti-treachery posters next to each other.

“… … No, this is an idol dormitory, is it Heungshinso?”
