Debut or Die - 251
It was nice to have a guaranteed vacation after the island distress program ended. That's because there's a place for me to use."... Then I could 'check out the truth'."Even if my condition doesn't improve, it would be advantageous to be able to recover during the vacation. It was also good for everyone to go to their parents' house for vacation."I figured I could get it out myself."But now, out of the blue, what does this mean?"You take your co-worker home for the vacations?"Are you determined to make us uncomfortable with each other?In particular, there is a high probability that Ryu CheongWoo, just like me when I was young, goes to his relatives' house every holiday.- ..."Forget it."About that... Let's not make unnecessary assumptions. It's meaningless.Tobok.I walked slowly along the mountain path and asked him directly.- Wouldn't it be a little different for me to go during this vacation?- No, it's fine.TN: The reason MoonDae asks that question is because his vacation falls on the dates of Chuseok, in which all the families of the same clan get together is celebrated. It would be strange for Park MoonDae to go visit in the middle of the Ryu clan's celebration instead of going to his clan.CheongWoo responded in a friendly manner.- It wouldn't be much different from usual. I already said it would be staying at our family's house. Wouldn't we do some festive food?- ... After somehow interpreting my silence, CheongWoo smiled bitterly.- Actually... it's kind of awkward for me to meet with other family members.- ...!- That's where I received a call to come to "Idol Corporation".CheongWoo continued to speak bluntly.- After the article related to that came out... my parents decided not to go again on holidays.- ...Right. Icorpo's writer took advantage of the fact that they were family.Her parents also seemed to refrain from interacting with relatives because they were afraid of falling prey to the articles for no reason.I chose my words.- That's wise.- Haha, that's right. Anyway, that's why it will just be me and my parents at home. My younger sister said she's going on a trip with her friends. Oh, we also have a dog.- ...- Think about it. It's probably hard for you to stay alone in the bedroom this time.- What?The bitter smile on CheongWoo's face disappeared and changed to a playful one.- Don't you know? The members and the company say that we shouldn't leave you alone because strange things happen every time you take a vacation.- ...That's... understandable.I was speechless when I remembered my record during my last vacation."Of all things, I had to get kidnapped."So, every time we have a vacation, one of the group members will keep an eye on me in case I get sick or get involved in a dogfight.I'll find some hole through which to escape, but if that's not possible...."But... wouldn't that be bad for CheongWoo too?"I'm not close friends with this guy, so I'll get a room and get along in moderation.It might not be a good time to see Ryu CheongWoo's parents, but it will be bearable."Besides..."I inhaled air.There might be pictures of my parents.I mean, when you go on a big family trip... there are always people taking pictures or videos. "If only I could see them in a group photo..."In a way, even though there's no "Ryu GunWoo" here, I can check if my parents are there...."Nonsense."I shook off my thoughts.Even if... there is some record that my parents were once here, but what I see now is of no help. I'm going to be unnecessarily agitated."Don't fall for the nonsense you thought."I broke my momentum and clenched my teeth tightly. A crunch sounded in my mouth.The problem was that it was also heard by the boy next to me.- Does that sound awkward to you?- ...!!- No... Well, it's possible. It can be awkward living with adults you don't know.I don't think that's what he meant. I understood his nuance from the beginning."It meant: Are you uncomfortable with me?"Ryu CheongWoo had a slightly bitter look on his face, but he soon changed his complexion and spoke comfortably.- Hmm, still, think about it.- ...Maybe it's right to forget that and move on from this moment.But I opened my mouth.- It's not because I feel uncomfortable with you, hyung. It's not that I feel uncomfortable either.- ... Hmm.CheongWoo seemed to stare at me as he walked, but he replied calmly.- Okay.- No, I'm not lying... it's the truth.- I got it, thank you.I don't think I understood anything.I kicked a stone that was at my feet.- It's not like that, I don't want you to have that strange feeling of being indebted to me, hyung.- ...!It's not an easy decision to invite a co-worker to your house during the vacations, is it?If this guy was in his normal condition, maybe he would have recommended that I visit the homes of close friends of my own age."Instead of rambling on and describing to me what their home is like."However, that he did this... it means that the idea of "being nice to Park MoonDae" is firmly rooted in his head.And there is only one reason for that.- When the accident happened, I didn't get hurt in your place, hyung. It was a matter of bad luck.I mean I was hit by a metal bar in the car instead of this guy.CheongWoo was silent for a moment, but soon responded firmly.- No.- Yes it was like that. Because of the position of the seat...- MoonDae-ya, I have eyes too. I saw you push me... and you almost died because of it. We still don't know what the consequences will be.CheongWoo continued speaking without hesitation.- I quit my job because of the aftermath of a car accident. It was one where I wasn't even in danger of dying.- ...Yes, I saw it too.I reflexively recalled the scene of his accident as I "Checked the Truth." He was the boy who cried with a mangled arm."... Maybe that affected me too."So far, that's true.After the scene of CheongWoo's accident shocked my mind, I listened to him silently.- And, you... you've lost your stamina due to the side effects. If it had been in the past, climbing this mountain would not have been so breathless.- ...- You were severely injured and were lying in bed for too long. Maybe that's why you are in this condition.No, it's not like that.Ya, that's because... I don't have Bacchus anymore."I'll get it somehow in the next draw, you bastard."And since I used Nectar, I won't have any other side effects. I recovered at a frightening speed.It's just a matter of me developing my musculature a bit more."I'm in a cold sweat."However, Ryu CheongWoo, a person who did not know the typical status settings of a web novel, pressed his forehead.- It's as if it happened to you in my place. Then how do you expect me not to regret that?- ...Okay. Anyway, Ryu CheongWoo gave up archery due to the aftermath of a car accident and had a hard time, so I guess that's why he feels guilty.- Huuuh.Well, it looks like the excuse that I almost got a steel bar through me by accident won't work.After thinking for a moment, I spoke.- Okay, let's say I saved your life, hyung.- ...!- You can continue to thank me in the future. I will call you without hesitation whenever I need you, so please answer me.I thought he would feel more uncomfortable if I refused to let him thank me, so I will use it well until he feels less sorry.- Ah, don't worry. I think I'll do more exercises to cover my resistance.- ...CheongWoo paused for a moment with a stunned face.I guess he didn't expect my attitude to change in an instant.But in the end he burst out laughing.- ... Haha!Don't laugh, I was already getting attached.TN: "정들다" means to feel affection towards something or someone, to become attached, to become closer to someone.I heard CheongWoo speak in a cooler way.- It's okay, I will pay you back.- Yes...The atmosphere became a little lighter. I shrugged my shoulders.And as I continued my descent down the mountain, I added.- But I won't go to your house during this vacation, hyung. I'll go to the house I'm least interested in.- Okay, have a good rest.Seeing that he answered me clearly, I shrugged my shoulders.Well, if I have to go to someone else's house, I'll go to ap place that is quieter.Of course, when the program aired, there was a big commotion. Quite the opposite of the quiet vacation I wanted.

- It's totally awesome!!! TeSTAR is the best!!!!- ... Thank you so much.I got a call from the production team, who were making a lot of fuss.And I completely understand why they are making such a fuss."The show did better than I expected."The ratings report for the third episode came in at 6.1%."It's not a common result for idol entertainment programs on a cable channel."It was as high as a standard regular CVN entertainment program.We were given frozen chicken to make PPL and eat later, and it was obvious that we got a good response from the audience when the sales of that chicken skyrocketed.It was so successful that the PD's voice couldn't have been any brighter.- We're really looking forward to season two!- That's good.Of course, the broadcast station bosses must be smiling too.From what I've heard, it looks like they'll be eliminating the pilot episode of the show that would air after ours and replacing it with a special episode composed of a behind-the-scenes."Well, we got very lucky on the shoot because several things happened by chance."It must have been fun because the natural disaster came in an unpredictable way. To be honest, it will be hard to relive that flavor in the next season, so... I don't know."Still, they were nice to us."The production team kept their promise.As soon as the time of distress was over, the production team paid new costs to offer us a luxury vacation.At this moment, we have three snow crabs per person. Well, Cha YooJin has five.- We would also like to appear on the show again if the schedule is possible. It was really fun.- Eeei~ Thank you so much, MoonDae-ssi!This should be enough. I ended the conversation with the PD who was so excited that he ended up calling my classmates as well.- Was it the PD?- Yes.- He keeps calling us.Bae Sejin complained. I shrugged my shoulders.- He must be in a good mood because the program went well.- That's... true.Sejin muttered grimly.- ... But he's finished us.- ...Yes, that's... because there were no other comedians.Bae Sejin and I stood silently in the car for a while, remembering that the penalties we did in the second and third episode were emphasized one by one."I'm afraid of making a fansign..."TN: He is afraid that the fans will make fun of him for everything he showed in the show when he makes a fansign soon for the group's comeback.After a while, the silence was broken by words from the steering wheel.- Sejin-ssi, is this it?- Oh, yes, there's my apartment.In an instant, Sejin regained the color in his complexion when he saw the car's navigation screen."It must be the power to get an apartment without taking out a loan."I think so.- It's on the top floor!Sejin said with a slightly flushed face.- My mother said she was at home.- Okay.That's right.I decided to spend this vacation at Bae Sejin's house.I heard that he plans to spend time with his mother quietly without going anywhere. That was a good reason.- That... Think of it like we're going to celebrate the housewarming and come!- Sure.- ...?!- Thanks for the invitation.And that's how I took over Sejin's house."I'm sorry I said empty words."I bought fruit and meat at a slightly more expensive price just in case.I was thinking of staying for a day or two just to show the others and then leave, so it's okay.- Welcome~ You must be MoonDae!- Good afternoon.- Come in, come in~Bae Sejin's mother was a bright person with a soft impression.- I just watched your new entertainment program. Ohyuu, my baby has been working hard....Well, since Bae Sejin is her only son, it must not have been nice to see him go to an island to suffer.- Still, it was a lot of fun!- ... Hmm, yes.That's okay, I'm glad he enjoyed it.Anyway, Sejin seemed to be quite at one with his mother, as expected.- I like that MoonDae is so real. My son talked about you a lot since you were on that show, MoonDae.- Wh-when did I do that?- What? It was when you sang~ You said you had a dongsaeng that sang very well~- Uuuuh!TN: "실물" is "the real thing." It's used as slang to talk about the impression someone makes when seeing them in photos and videos compared to how they are in real life. By assuring that it is "so real", it means that his image and attitude are the same as how they look on screen. The mother is probably talking about the program "Icorpo," where Sejin met MoonDae.Bae Sejin sank down on the sofa in embarrassment and his mother laughed and hugged him tightly.- ...Yes, it's good to see a nice relationship between mother and son.Moments later, Bae Sejin stood up and recovered from the shock after his mother patted him on the back.- ... I'll show you my room.- Yes, thank you.I won't tease him.He quietly introduced me to the room I would be staying in and, as I stood there, I began to look around the house.- I picked out the wallpaper. It's sky blue.- It's nice to look at. It looks clean.- ... Yeah, that's good. Oh, I did that with the closet too!- Oh.Maybe he was really proud of the house he had prepared, that's why Sejin was totally energized halfway through his explanation.And after spending some time eating the fruits I bought, we had dinner.- Thank you for the food.- I didn't have much to prepare, but eat a lot~.Dinner consisted of bean pancakes and bulgogi japchae. Bae Sejin, who was worried that her mother would prepare everything by herself, ordered it from a good restaurant in advance."It feels like a vacation."Anyway, I can't deny that I had a good time.- I'm going...!- Don't worry, pass me the bowl.I cleaned up the rice bowl and took away Sejin's dishes to wash them.And after a while I went back to my room.Tak.- Huuh.Sitting on the bed, I folded my arms.I said I would stay alone until the evening because I had some people to contact, so I have plenty of time. - Status window.It was about time.It was the right time to "check the truth".
