If you can’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease Episode 387
“Hmm.”
The message I sent just before has not yet been answered.
But let’s see.
The idol group that Lee Se-jin is currently a member of, Zyrop, was scheduled to enjoy a short break right after the tour.
I don’t think I would have known that and contacted you, but anyway, it means that I can make time for at least one day out of those days.
But this is where the bait falls.
Actor Lee Se-jin with the same name.
There is also a story that they are doing well as actors and have the same name. It is a choice without criticism for networking.
It deserves a higher management priority.
‘Wouldn’t it be okay if I went home and spent half a day the next day?’
…Wouldn’t you have thought of something like that?
Lee Se-jin, who found out the MC number in a solo variety show he appeared for the first time.
just as expected.
The screen of the smartphone, which had been turned off, soon vibrated again.
[Cool younger brother Sejin: Hahaha hyung, how did you contact me at the right time, my schedule is empty!] [
Cool younger brother Sejin: When do you think the date is?]
That’s right.
Ryu Cheng-wu looks at the screen and speaks with a wry smile.
“You keep in touch with Sejin too. You must have suffered.”
“…yes. What is that?”
It was the moment I was about to answer that there was no such thing as suffering.
“Moondae hyung! My name is also a cool brother! I’m a cool tiger, Cha Yujin… .”
“Be quiet, fool…omg?”
…No, this was just for bait… …what happened
“Oh!! Raebin Kim, did you call me an idiot?”
“A mistake!”
Thanks to Kim Rae-bin, who is the center of the topic on his own, I avoided the phone book becoming more messy.
And a few days later, a single room at a restaurant in Seoul.
“So you mean Lee Se-jin is coming soon? No memory?”
“yes.”
Bae Se-jin appeared wearing sunglasses, a hat, and even gloves, and then sat down and was drinking water with a slightly nervous expression.
I don’t know what they’re doing since we shared a dorm together until recently.
‘Well, it wasn’t quite right in the beginning.’
I don’t know if it’s because of the stressful memories at that time.
Anyway, I’ll have to wait another 30 minutes for him to come, so my tension will be relieved.
It’s because I met this guy a little earlier on purpose.
“By the way, how is your company job?”
…I was going to ask what the hell did you do to get the president’s crime of plastering?
And Bae Se-jin’s face came alive as soon as he heard the question.
“what…not bad.”
“is that so.”
“Just what…The contract was renewed according to the industry standard, the manager was changed, and the script was not skipped.”
“…?”
“And since I received a recording and a memorandum not to do this to anyone else…Not bad. Great.”
“….”
Rather boast openly.
Bae Se-jin, no matter who sees it, ‘I burst cider like this!’ It is a face that cries out
OK. I quietly opened my mouth.
“That’s great. Articles didn’t even appear, but it’s not easy to do things quietly like that.”
“Hmmmm, it wasn’t difficult. just…It was handled according to common sense and reason.”
“oh.”
Now is the time to tell you how to do it.
“Because the president stole company money and gambled away.”
“…!!”
“And I have proof. video!”
He said he didn’t know it was evidence before, but only found out when it was exposed to the media a few years later.
‘I must have run the simulation that he exploded several times with this guy’s personality… .’
Even so, it seems that he did not meet the lawyer in vain to receive the crime of plaster.
“Of course, it’s socially good to report it to the police and deal with it properly…Then I won’t be able to work for a while.”
“ah.”
Bae Se-jin fiddled with the water glass.
“that…I have to help you get on the target.”
“…!”
“For that to happen, it is advantageous for me to continue to be active. still! I think the president made it so that I can’t do that again in the future.”
“….”
me really
It’s like a guy who came up with a realistic compromise after thinking that this wasn’t the reality and then there was nothing to hold back.
“Thank you.”
“Hmm what? We want to go back together!”
After that, Bae Se-jin was completely speechless, and even talked about how he sent the manager and the vicious employee away.
It’s not without its clumsy corners, but it has good momentum and seems to have tried to handle it meticulously, so I don’t think I need to touch it.
‘It’s fine.’
And originally, I was going to change my name to ‘Bae Se-jin’, but there was even a story that I put up with it for the sake of popularity.
Oh, I see… .
“Is your older brother’s real father okay?”
That drug villain.
“….”
Bae Se-jin opened his mouth with a slightly embarrassed face.
“…Are you missing?”
“…??”
No, how the hell is this world made up?
“Anyway, I divorced my mom and it’s all over! are you okay.”
“Um yes.”
If so.
The topic goes back to the current situation and future plans.
“…okay! The movie will be released soon. Hmm, match your survival debut… ….”
smart.
“ah.”
A knock is heard from the room.
‘I’m not an employee.’
When I look at my watch, I know who it is.
“Come on in.”
4 minutes before the appointed time.
Lee Se-jin opened the door and came in.
“Hyung, I’m here. Bye~ Hello!”
The guy who hid his dyed hair in a hood took off his mask and said hello.
“Welcome.”
“Oh, it’s close to my house, so I came just right! Everyone has come early.”
It’s near the house. He must have waited nearby and arrived just in time.
I sat down and gestured across from him.
“This is Sejin Lee. Learn.”
“Ah~ I really enjoyed watching the movie!”
“Ah yes.”
Bae Se-jin nodded. This reminds me of < Azusa >.
“I was also impressed by the ‘Seahorse’ filmed this time.”
Lee Se-jin seems to have done a thorough preliminary investigation like a bastard.
“I got goosebumps because he looked like a really scary medical student. I’m surprised every time you capture that sensibility really well!”
Bae Se-jin, who only had 4 consecutive psychopaths, answered this while nervous.
“Because we always do the same thing…Um yes.”
“….”
For a moment, even Lee Se-jin of the world almost shut up, but soon smiles and replies.
“Ay, you do well every time, so you feel the same way!”
“It’s not…Thank you anyway.”
“Ahaha yes!”
And Lee Se-jin seems to have discarded all career-related small talk topics right away.
However, even after that, all of Lee Se-jin’s personal questions bounced back.
“Oh, that coat suits you! Do you often wear a coat?”
“hmm…It was given to me by the manager.”
“Your manager has a good eye.”
Then Bae Se-jin, who heard the praise of the manager who cut him this morning, answers like this.
“…well.”
“….”
I’m a guy who can’t crush public facts and respond with lies, so I keep keeping my mouth shut… ….
‘It’s ruined.’
I plainly admitted.
These chicks are just… they’re the ones that don’t fit
‘In the end, I’m going to carry my arms here too.’
“Let’s talk more over dinner. You must be hungry.”
“…! oh~ good What did you do?”
The Korean food course came out and I started creating topics for small talk that I hadn’t even heard of before.
* * *
‘Oh, it’s open.’
While eating, Sejin Lee evaluated the seat in his heart.
It was wrong to form a bond with that actor sitting across from him.
‘You didn’t want to come out? Why are you like that?’
In fact, I think we can become friends somehow by persistently talking to each other… Somehow I didn’t even want to.
‘It’s not necessary to have an actor network.’
I needed at least a few more years to pursue personal activities through acting. Lee Se-jin did not need to be impatient. …maybe.
‘…No, I should be more alert.’
Looking at the team, it seemed like it would be difficult to renew the contract. The thought of having to find a way to live within a few years was somehow bitter.
‘Only with something like this.’
It was funny to do this. Still, the team is doing well right now… .
“The ribs here are delicious.”
“…! Oh yes, I didn’t know about a restaurant like this!”
“I heard that fans post a lot of hashtags like that.”
“That’s right~ Please upload a lot.”
When the conversation between Lee Se-jin and Lee Se-jin did not go well, Ryu Gun-woo led the conversation gently.
He seemed active without replying.
‘…Isn’t that the answer?’
I don’t know how many times I’ve seen it on just the second meeting, but I don’t know if I feel like this.
Well, just looking at it, it doesn’t look like an extroverted style. Lee Se-jin just moved his thoughts to the next context.
Anyway, rather than bring someone like that, I’d rather just see the two of them, so what’s the point… .
‘…Or maybe I didn’t come out then?’
right. He took the time to say that he would introduce him to new people… looks like
I don’t know. Strangely, the flow of thoughts itself felt like a mess.
Lee Se-jin didn’t express himself, but he was a little taken aback.
‘It’s strange.’
Still, the conversation continued. It’s also strangely funny… because it was comfortable.
“How was the tour?”
And when we moved on to the topic of idols and active survival programs, a more in-depth conversation started to emerge automatically.
“The tour is fun~ hyung will do it soon too. You are so good at it! The < Wise > program is also popular.”
“But when you debut, the song and the situation are important. I can’t say it’s going to be good, but… …In fact, the listing of Chochi is similar to that actor, but Ryu Gun-woo ends his speech with a smile
.
“I hope it goes well, though. I think it will be very rewarding.”
“…hmm. yes. The stage is difficult, but it is really fun work.”
“okay.”
He asked questions like a survival contestant with an uncertain future, but he didn’t feel particularly desperate or persistent.
What should I say? people are pale
“…Hyung’s agency is famous for being good at tours. It will be fine.”
Maybe that’s why Lee Se-jin unknowingly began to give a slightly more honest answer below that, instead of a well-coordinated relationship answer.
Naturally, the topic becomes more serious.
And then comes this question.
“Come to think of it…I wanted to ask you how it feels to debut. How is it?”
When did you debut?
“It’s amazing, but it goes back so crazy? I was busy, so I didn’t have time to reflect on my inspiration, that’s it~”
It’s true.
But there are facts below that that need not be said.
“…It might not be what you thought it would be.”
I would advise you to throw it away if you were expecting overwhelming enthusiasm, a sense of challenge, and a sense of security when you are in the right position.
Ryu Gun-woo asked quietly.
“Do you have any regrets?”
regret?
“Still, I don’t think I have any particular regrets. Of course some… There are also unexpected difficulties.”
It’s like a member who can’t do anything since they’ve already debuted together.
“which?”
“Oh what….”
Sejin Lee inadvertently opened his mouth and only then realized.
That you are being very unnecessarily honest.
‘Why are you saying this… ….’
And barely spoke naturally.
“…There’s no easy way to make money. It’s like that!”
“…okay. I think that’s what I think.”
“….”
Ryu Gun-woo did not ask further. It seemed like he felt a strange sign, but it seems like a kind of consideration.
‘ah.’
Lee Se-jin was a little disappointed but relieved.
‘…?? What do you miss?’
Then, instead, the actor who had been eating hard throws out a sharp word.
“that’s right. There is no easy way to make money.”
“…?”
“People have to pay for their food.”
suddenly?
I don’t know when he stopped talking, but I’m sure he’s older than himself, so Lee Se-jin just answered softly.
“that…That’s right. yes yes.”
The actor held the chopsticks with veins.
“I just kept my seat and acted indolently, and ended up doing something I shouldn’t have done…People like that don’t deserve money.”
“Oh, you can’t do that. really.”
Lee Se-jin was genuinely serious at the moment that he was arguing.
It was because I was furious because of the melee examples that came to mind at the moment.
Lee Se-jin said calmly, recalling the face of a child who failed to manage his condition while drinking the day before the tour.
“There is such a thing as work ethic. And in group life, if there is such a person, the team will lose money.”
“okay! No matter how good you are, a good person who works hard is better than that kind of person!”
However, despite shouting energetically, the actor suddenly flinched and added his words.
“you…Although you may prefer a person who is a bit bad or lazy to a person who is not good at it.”
And it will be hurriedly rectified.
“Usually so!”
“….”
Lee Se-jin roughly thought of the answer, ‘There are many people like that~’, but discarded it.
I was kind of pissed off.
No, I responded like this… Do you know that I’m like that when you say you’re choking?
“No, even if I’m not good at it, I think someone who works hard is better.”
“…okay?”
“I see~ If we continue to work together, thinking about the future, won’t the former do well in the end?”
“…!”
Lee Se-jin came to a conclusion without knowing it.
“If you’re going with someone, that’s better.”
It was cool.
“….”
The moment I learned, I almost dropped my chopsticks.
why are you like that
However, he soon corrects it and mumbles in a much brighter tone.
“…Not really. You’re right.”
“Yes~?”
For the first time today, the conversation between the two ended appropriately.
And Lee Se-jin slightly changed his mind.
what…He seems to have a bit of an eccentric personality, but when he works in his own way, he seems to be the type with a vision.
‘that…Not bad.
And Ryu Gun-woo, who had been eating without intervening in their conversation, started talking again only then.
“Speaking of work, then how much practice should be appropriate? Actors and idols have slightly different fields.”
“Umm~ isn’t persistence important?”
“…okay. After all, there is such a thing as habit.”
And naturally, the conversation proceeds with all three participating… .
“…!”
for a moment.
‘…Is that why you deliberately dragged the conversation this way?’
Does that actor open his mouth in a serious conversation? And even though he gave up small talk because he was annoyed, he’ll have a serious conversation… .
So that the atmosphere between himself and the actor does not become more strange.
“….”
Lee Se-jin was somehow embarrassed and looked down at the bowl.
Even though he is young, he is a senior, so it was a bit like being considered in a position like this.
But at the same time… I felt a bit at ease. I have to say it’s a solid feeling.
‘Wow~ They say a lot.’
he eventually gave up.
Apparently, he wanted to make his new network a friend.
‘…Idol friends are good.’
Lee Se-jin held back a sigh and popped the soybean paste noodles into his mouth.
It was delicious.
* * *
The meal with the same name ended well in the end.
Although Bae Se-jin made this evaluation as soon as Lee Se-jin left.
– Even though he’s young, he’s completely human!
Of course, it doesn’t end here.
-…It wasn’t bad though.
Seeing them in different situations and positions, it seems that they have ruminated on the things that made them cringe during their debut.
He seemed to think that if the circumstances were different, he would have fought and solved it faster.
[I think you two will get along better from now on….]
It could be.
Anyway, I saw off Bae Se-jin, who was going to grab the president again.
And I joined three other guys who said they had gone out to pick out Kim Rae-bin’s piercing.
“Have you met Sejin hyungs? Call me next time!”
Cha Yoo-jin left these words and ran to buy pizza with Kim Rae-bin.
Liu Cheng-wu evaluated it like this.
“Se-jin, so meeting Lee Se-jin… Are you trying to make it a little less sad when your memories come back later?”
“….”
I put down my smartphone.
“It is not. It’s convenient to have connections with senior idols who have a name.”
I know all the information, but there is nothing I do not use. …He’s also a good fit.
Liu Qingyu was dazed for a moment, then burst into laughter.
“okay! The door is still there. Like Lavigne.”
“…!”
“Oh, the kids are coming. I’ll bring you some pizza.”
“no….”
This bastard won’t listen again
Anyway, I ended up spending that day at an officetel with these three guys while eating pizza for dinner.
‘What kind of meeting day is it?’
And I said, ‘Is it more convenient for me to call you Moondae hyung?’ When he was making up a suitable excuse for Kim Rae-bin, who asked,
On the Internet, new rumors and opinions about LeTi survival were emerging.
