Episode 473
Medical staff judged Cha Yoo-jin’s condition to be ‘stressful delirium’.
Being a celebrity is a job group in the industry that sees all the stars, so there have been several similar cases in the past.
“I couldn’t sleep, so when I suddenly woke up, I thought that he was throwing things at me….”
It was an ambiguous decision that since he had woken up and was in a healthy state on examination, there was a high probability that he would be fine if he rested his mind and body.
“All right. thank you…!”
However, Kim Rae-bin’s expression improved a little, as if he were relieved just by the expert’s comment on ‘previous cases’.
“I’m sorry, but for a moment….”
And Sejin started another conversation with the medical team separately.
It seemed like he was asking ‘what action to take in a situation where Cha Yu-jin would not get better by itself within a few hours’.
Employees are running around beside him, making phone calls, working frantically. Half of them are holding a meeting, and the other half are urgently adjusting their schedules.
‘It’s a mess.’
And by that point, Cha “Steer” Yoo-jin seemed to have realized the strangeness of the situation.
At least you would have noticed that this is not the United States the moment the medical staff and staff rushed in speaking Korean.
“Moondae, do you want to stay here with Yujin? I think it would be better to share it that way.”
“…okay.”
And from my point of view, strangers are acting like they know me well.
However, this guy didn’t stir up a fuss during the inspection.
-You want to explain about Testa? well.
-Oh… no. i was sleeping
I just gave an appropriate answer to the question in a non-cooperative manner.
‘Am I examining the situation?’
It was then.
bang!
“Guys!”
“…!”
The one who hurriedly opened the door and appeared was another member who was on schedule.
However, it was not Ryu Cheong-woo, who was predicted by Se-jin to come soon.
“Sejin hyung!”
Bae Se-jin was panting.
The guy who ran with all his might, grabbing his breath by holding the doorknob, had a flushed face.
“Char…The filming ended early, so I came back once… Cha Yoo-jin woke up?!”
“yes!”
It seemed that he came right away after being in a state of panic and contact at the moment it ended. The guy greeted Kim Rae-bin and strode towards Cha Yu-jin.
‘I thought Ryu Cheng-wu would come first.’
It seems that Sejin Bae arrived first because the filming location was close… .
wait for a sec.
‘…Sejin Bae?’
I suddenly realized something.
I < Relist! The life before that, which did not enter the body of Park Moon-dae, who did not participate in Idol Co., Ltd. At that time... Sejin Bae also debuted as Steer and was active. briefly. - Lee Se-jin from 'Idol Co., Ltd.' was arrested for drug distribution. “....” Until I was on the 9 o'clock news as a drug supply... I mean. Of course, it is also true that Steer's activities did not go smoothly from the beginning due to issues with his agency and fandom. However, it was clear to anyone that the drug news was the starting point of a fatal twist in Steer's career. “....” And sitting in the hospital room right now... .... “Oh.” ...If it's Cha Yoo-jin from 'Steer'. 'X feet.' I immediately moved closer to the bed. I heard Sejin Bae anxiously ask a question from a distance away from me. “Are you okay?” Cha Yoo-jin did not answer. He just stared at Bae Se-jin as if he had seen something out of the ordinary in an unexpected place. And he opened his mouth. “Lee Se-jin?” “...!? Hey, hey, why me... ....” [I think you guys picked the wrong person, but really, I'm a drug addict... ....] “...!” Damn this. [Shut up.] I hurriedly lowered my voice to 'Cha Yoo-jin' and whispered, then approached Bae Se-jin. “I just woke up, so my condition is a bit strange. He said he was in America.” “That’s right!” Rabin Kim vehemently agreed. "ah! We even talked about brownies and chocolate chip cookies! Did refraining from snacking during the active period be the cause of the stress?” That's not it. Unfortunately, Bae Se-jin's eyes became serious. “Is that so? ...ah! There's a bakery right in front of you! I’ll buy it, so wait!” “...! indeed! I will come too!” And the two of them started to leave the hospital room. It was poised to sweep away the brownies and cookies. thud! “....” rather fortunate 'after.' I stared at the closed door, held back a sigh, and sat in the caretaker's chair. The situation is unmanageable. 'still...I'll start with the conversation.' It was quiet at the time, so I thought it would be good now. however...The problem is that I wasn't the only one who was looking at the timing like that. Outside the hospital room where everyone is busy with their own work. And inside the hospital room, which became quiet as people left. The guy looked at the situation... At the moment when attention is distracted, it is to act. "hey. Umm 'Mundae hyung'?” “....” I turned my head. 'Steer Cha Yoo-jin', who remembered my title that Kim Rae-bin sang and put it to good use, opened her mouth as she was sitting in the hospital bed. [You know what crazy things are going on here?] “....” [I don't know if I'm eating a special brownie and watching some kind of funny KPOP hallucination.] He pointed his finger at his hair. blond hair. [I don't dye my hair anymore.] It was that moment. The guy stretched out his hand. Then he grabbed me by the shoulder and suddenly thrust his head quite forcefully into it. “...!” [And you recognized me. Whenever I say 'steer' or 'drug boy', you recognize me.] “....” Cha Yoo-jin did not release his hand from my shoulder. Then, with the same eye contact, the other hand slowly tapped the forearm next to the shoulder. [I don't know what the goddamn "Testa" is, but if this is some kind of Prank show, you'd better be prepared to get sued. Because I don't remember signing.] “....” after. I took a deep breath. It was complicated. 'This... I can't start grinding once.' Given the circumstances, I am not angry. 'It's just like X... ....' I endured the headache and opened my mouth. "first." [Hmm?] “As a member of a disbanded KPOP group, is there anyone who would do that in America?” “...!!” “And you didn’t take the medicine. I didn't even eat Kim Rae-bin.” I don't know why in the United States they put medicine in normal brownies. 'Cha Yoo-jin's eyes widened slightly. The moment the grip on my shoulder loosened slightly, I roughly removed his hand. “But one of your statements is true.” “What?” “Something crazy happened.” “...huh?” I threw the fool's hand back onto the bed. It was the greatest kindness I could give. * * * New member. new activity. new development. I briefly summarized the activities of 'Testa', not Steer, to Yujin Cha before returning to the two guys who went to the bakery. Of course, his reaction was as expected. [I think there are three possibilities. Would you like to hear it?] “What.” [You took the medicine or I took the medicine.] “Two things.” [Or both.] Damn it. 'Why did this bastard become a medicinal warrior?' I barely resisted the urge to grab my head. “Why is it all medicine? is it an illusion? Is that a symptom of the drug?” [I heard that it is.] “....” I mean, I've never done it myself. Fortunately, it didn't seem to have gone that far. [Then am I crazy? Hey, did you recklessly bring a crazy person to the hospital knowing how much the emergency room costs in the US?] “No.” I pressed my temples and said silently. “Look out the window for now.” “What?” “You can just roll your eyes. Look.” I slightly opened the blinds. And Cha Yoo-jin literally just turned her gaze slightly to check the outside... . “...!” “That’s Korea.” The Korean signboard and the familiar city view outside the window. It was Seoul. He said he was in America now, but he must have been based in Seoul for several years, so you won't be able to recognize him. “Holy....” drooling. Cha Yu-jin changed her attitude a little after opening the window and confirming the space. [Are you serious?] “Uh.” I guess that means I'm starting to seriously consider the possibility that this might be true. “So we don’t have to worry about hospital bills. Because it's a KPOP boy group. The company will take care of the cost.” “....” “You are now in a group called ‘Testa’. We are your members.” [No nonsense.] [No nonsense.] I muttered calmly as I heard footsteps running into the hospital room to see if I had succeeded in purchasing the brownies. “If you only have half a day, you will have no choice but to admit it.” * * * “We are leaving.” "yes!" Cha Yoo-jin, who is in good health and has no symptoms of sudden violent behavior or seizures, left the room. Of course, all schedules for three days had been canceled. “Eugene, is there any uncomfortable place?” "yes. I'm fine.” Cha Yoo-jin responded very calmly to Ryu Cheng-wu, who asked a gentle question from the front seat. But soon, with an uncomfortable expression, he turned his head and mumbled. [A strange world like this X... .] “Horse.” Cha Yoo-jin looked back at me with an expression that looked like 'what right do you have?', but soon answered meekly. “Sorry. It's been a few months since I became free.” “....” I remember. The three of them continued their unit activities under the name of Steer until the end. Ryu Cheong-woo, Kim Rae-bin and Cha Yoo-jin. I remembered that even those who worked hard in the group life had no news after the disbandment. And among them, this 'Steer Cha Yoo-jin' seemed to have returned to his home country, the United States, as soon as his activities were over. but...'Freedom'. 'I didn't really like the idol life.' After all, 'I did my job properly until the end' and 'I liked my job' can't mean the same thing. 'Well, the situation was pretty X-like.' Even though I knew it, the aftertaste was somehow bitter. “This is the house we moved into. If you haven’t been around for a long time and it doesn’t help you stabilize, please tell me!” “OK.” Cha Yoo-jin, who had been silently looking out the window the whole time in the car, did not talk much even after arriving at the dorm. It seemed like he was just checking the appearance of the dorm, even in a rough way. The case was next. “It’s our music video playlist, so I brought it because I thought it might help Cha Yoo-jin come to his senses faster while watching it!” “It’s okay!” “We will see each other after a long time.” That's why I started watching Testa's debut music video 'Magic Boy' continuously. “....” Actually, I was a bit worried about whether it was the right way to show this, but... . 'If I don't show it, I don't think this guy will agree.' Cha Yoo-jin doesn't seem like that, but surprisingly, he was an extremely realistic guy. In this situation where you don't have a close relationship, you have to come up with evidence that you can understand, but they will even pretend to cooperate. And sure enough, “...this." “Cha Yoo-jin! Is there anything you want to say about this song?” “How did you do it?” “...?” -Ah, I'm dizzy~ What he took was... A music video full of the screen with Testa dancing and smiling while wearing a baseball uniform in the school grounds with impressive blue skies. It's a 'high five'. It was originally prepared by the company as the first title song for the < Azusa > debut group.
It was a song that was supposed to come out in an ambiguous disco style that didn’t fit the concept more.
but.
“Originally, the company suggested that we go in a disco style, but we persuaded them by even using a PPT. Let’s go coolly to rock.”
“….”
“And Rabin arranged it.”
Cha Yujin silently watched the High Five music video.
And the music video after that.
The moment I finally arrived at ‘Better me’.
“OK, I’ll admit it.”
“…?”
“Testa.”
Steer Cha Yoo-jin raised his head.
There was something heavy on the face of the guy who pronounced ‘Testa’ in the Korean pronunciation, neither realization nor embarrassment.
shadowy.
“…”
…Somehow I didn’t feel very refreshed.
‘Still, I stood at the starting line.’
From now on, take control so that this guy doesn’t act unexpectedly… .
“…??”
“What is Cha Yu-jin saying right now?”
…Of course, after a little explanation on this side.
* * *
After a few minutes.
“therefore…You mean this Yoo-jin was Yu-jin when he was Geon-wu hyung before he became a Mun-dae? hmm? Is this expression correct?”
“I guess that’s right…oh right.”
Ryu Cheong-woo and Bae Se-jin chatted in confusion.
No matter how much they’ve been through all sorts of things, since this is the first time they’ve been through this, everyone seems to be taken aback.
But at the same time, he seemed relieved.
“…Anyway, Cha Yujin is not sick… Are you happy?”
“That’s how we figured out the cause.”
Kim Rae-bin muttered blankly.
“Still, to hear that you debuted in < Azusa > where Moondae hyung didn’t participate…I don’t have much imagination.”
“That’s right~ I don’t think I could have debuted. Oh, is it okay if I ask who debuted?”
Big Sejin asked.
It seemed that there were pure doubts and attempts to understand Cha Yoo-jin a little.
Cha Yoo-jin smiled and rested her chin on the table.
“It’s not okay.”
“…!”
“Even if you hear it, it doesn’t mean much. So I’m not talking. got it?”
The atmosphere instantly froze.
