Save a Failed Idol’s Life

Chapter 15

#015. 100 wins in 100 battles

Shake it!  Shake it!  Like popping bottle-

My body moved reflexively, following the avatars movements on the large TV panel.

Just how loud did you turn the TV volume up?

Fortunately, Kyunghwa was away due to personal schedules, and there was no way Seongwon would come out to a place like this.

Only Sunwoo sat on the sofa and watched the sacred dance battle while chewing carrots instead of popcorn. 

Surelyis it because the grade went up? Its not as urgent as before to follow the movements. 

I even have time to see how Yejun is doing in the meantime.

Boom your face-! Blow your mind-!

Its me the last one who steal your heart-!

The fast beat of the pop song was said to have topped the Billboard charts. 

If it had been Lim Hyunsung, I would have hated even listening to the song.

Even though Ive never heard the song or done the choreography, I found it amazing that the word Miss didnt come up even once.

Oh YejunLets see how much he scores.

When I peeked at the real-time score, it was neck and neck. 

Its enoughstill, didnt I improve a lot compared to last time?

I now stretched out my arms and legs, diligently copying the movements that reached the highlight. 

Then, something unexpected happened.

Why are you so noisy in the morning? I cant sleep because of the noise.

Seongwon walked out of his room alone. Then, he pulled out the TV cord plugged into the power strip.

Hey! What are you doing,iIts almost over!

Yejun jumped at Seongwon, pushed him to the other side, and plugged in the cord again. But it was after the last part had already passed. 

[Fail-! You need to practice some more! Do your best!]

After that, the movement was judged to be a miss for both of us, and the clear failure screen came up.

Arent you crazy? Is it hard to just say to lower the volume?

Is it polite to turn it up loud enough to make the floor rumble in the morning at the dorm?

Guess who isnt the kind of guy who doesnt fall for both tempers?

Na Sunwoo, who was chewing carrots leisurely just a while ago, was flustered.

Both of you, dont fight. I should have turned the volume down beforehand. I, its my fault 

Then Yejun firmly responded.

Dont say nonsense that you keep looking at that kid. No matter who sees it, the one who pulled out the cord first is overreacting. He can ask to lower volume first! 

What did you do well in waking up someone in the morning? 

It would have been nice if there was Kyunghwa at a time like this. 

I headed to the kitchen, missing Kyunghwa, who had left in the morning because of some schedule. 

Then, holding two silver pots that seemed to have been bought for boiling ramen in both hands, I came out into the living room. 

What would you have done if this was broken?

I can tell it if it breaks down. Since you watch TV the most, arent you actually the cause when it breaks down? 

In any case, the conversation slowly turned into small complaints about who wasnt the kid between them. 

Both of them were distracted by each other and didnt notice what I was doing. 

Only Sunwoo covered his startled eyes as if he couldnt see the terrible scene.

Clank! 

Ack!

Argh! 

The bottom of the pot collided with the two light heads that had nothing on them, making a clear and cheerful sound.

Four eyes full of resentment glared at me at the same time.

Both of you, stop making noise and eat.

When they woke up in the morning, they heard an announcement that the cooking was done.

It was the beginning of a temporary ceasefire.

* * *

Maybe its because theyre boys in their prime. Putting a spoon in their mouths certainly did make them quiet.

Where did they just expose their teeth and growl at each other? Both were busy chewing and swallowing the rice in their mouths now.

Its been a while since I ate Gang Doenjang, so its really delicious. (t/n: Gang Doenjang () is a reduced and thickened fermented soybean paste stew, usually served as a dipping sauce for Korean lettuce wraps (ssam:).) 

Yejun drools as he pours a spoonful of soybean paste over barley rice, which has more barley than white rice.

It was a delicious bibimbap wrapped in fragrant pumpkin leaves that had been steamed beforehand.

After marinating it beforehand and then defrosting it, adding the grilled Bulbaek with only the smell of fire made it impossible not to taste it. (t/n: Bulbaek is an abbreciation for . Its the food which is set meal with (bulgogi), rice, lettuce, and so on.) 

Yise Hyung, I always say its delicious, so you might think Im just saying it out of politeness. 

I already knew that I was good at cooking even if he didnt say it. 

Enough, just empty your rice bowl. The lunch is a salad with no carbs.

It was a little ironic to talk about salad while eating rice with a perfect balance of soybean paste and snails.

Ung! Ill eat it clean!

Sunwoo, who placed the pumpkin leaves on the palm of his hand, took a handful of meat and bibimbap and put them in a bite.

It looked like the face of an angel who was happy in the world.

Dinner tooIll have to eat it with a salad with fewer carbs.

It was my role to maintain that angelic face and figure.

Seongwon, who emptied the bowl first, glanced at Yejun and brought the finished bowl to the sink.

Whats wrong with him?

It was a big improvement, considering that he had been eating and suffocating himself in the room.

Anyway, hes a really ignorant punk. 

Yum. Yejun, who still had something to eat, muttered into the back of Seongwons head. 

Will they fight like this again? I quickly pushed the Bulbaek plate in front of Oh Yejun. 

Oh, thank you~.

Yejun was really simple.

As the meat came closer in front of him, he ate with a happy expression, as if he had never been in a bad mood.

This guy might be good in many ways because he is easier to handle than Son Seongwon.

I relieved myself and quietly asked Yejun.

It was better than last time, right? 

Then, Yejun replied with a smirk with eyes that went up in a bad way.

Yeah. Still, Hyung, you werent as good as you used to be. Thats because Ive never seen someone who can dance as well as Hyung? Are you still receiving rehabilitation treatment? 

While I attended dance classes secretly from the members, on the surface, I pretended that I was undergoing rehabilitation treatment.

I dont think theyll believe it because Cheon Yises dance and performance skills were A or better at the time. 

Then, it would be better to make an excuse for my physical condition in advance. It was my judgment. 

Yeah. Ill probably have to get it for a while. But dont worry, it wont interfere with your activities. 

According to Manager Hyung, the company planning teams concept meeting will be held next week.

When I said that I really wanted to participate in the planning this time, he was happy to make the position. 

Then now it was time for me to accumulate minimal background knowledge about the idol industry. 

It was also necessary to closely analyze what kind of work Climax had released so far.

Objectively look at what was lacking compared to other performance projects.

Ill make your lunch, so you just have to mix the salad dressing and eat it. Serve it yourself. Yejun, watch Sunwoo to see if he eats anything weird or if he gets a proper PT.

Then Yejun murmured. 

Yeah, Im going out after lunch too. I can watch him going to PT. Okay.

What is this kid doing, running around all the time?

Be careful of people. It bothered me because he was the one with the highest risk of escape among all the members.

Its all the more because hes already receiving love calls from all over the place.

Why are you going out again?

Just, I need to meet a friend. Haha

What kind of friends do celebrities meet so often? Even though its called a failed idol. 

I nodded my head in doubt.

Okay, Ill get ready and go out. Ill be back in the evening.

Yes, Im going to eat outside, so with this guy All I need to do is watch him.

Yeah.

With that last word, I cleaned up the breakfast table and prepared the lunch salad.

It was already 11 oclock when I put each salad for three people in a lunch box. 

I quietly got out of the dorm and headed to the officetel.

When I took out my own car parked in the private parking lot next to the dorm and arrived at the officetel, it was the time for lunch. 

Come to think of it, it feels like Im back home after almost 3 weeks.

It should be called a house. Although Cheon Yise is familiar with it, I am not, and the dorm felt more like a home to me.

Most likely, its not because no one lives here, and its a total mess, right?

Contrary to what I was worried about, the house was clean because a person regularly came to clean and organize the refrigerator.

Lets eat lunch first!

Eating comes first at Mt. Geumgang. (T/n : used to suggest delaying something until after eating.)

I wouldnt have an idea if I starved myself to eat, no matter how important the task was.

I took out the bread that had been replaced with a new one and lightly toasted it in a buttered frying pan. 

HmmThe smell of butter is amazing.

Crisply grilled bacon is placed between toasts coated with a butter flavor that rises savory and salty. Herelets melt the cheese and put it in here. 

The heat from the frying pan made the cheese melt, giving off a delicious smell.

Theres no sugar powder, but its better to eat it like this because theres raspberry jam.

After soaking in the beaten egg and cooking the top like frying, the Monte Cristo was done. It was a bomb in calories and a bomb in taste.

Its a taste that makes life worth living.

Its good to eat a healthy meal, like eating for breakfast.

As expected, people must live by eating unhealthy tastes that explode in calories. 

Because of Sunwoo, Ive had a healthy diet for a while, and my tongue felt greasy, and I was craving something sweet and salty. 

After eating four slices of bread in an instant, my head began to spin.

Now lets analyze Climaxs works. Ive learned the song and choreography so I can focus on the concept and mass media reactions.

I cleaned up the table, brought my laptop, and sat down in front of the table. 

[Climax Debut Single: One Week with Your Man]

The concept of the first album was wild beauty. Was this a trend back then? 

Everyone was wearing makeup like charcoal black that didnt even fit. 

When I went to the most famous music site and checked the comments, the few responses were also spectacular. 

[ The makeup doesnt look good. I know youre trying to follow the hit in the black zone, but its a bit;;] 

[ Did CEO Hong lose his touch? Is this a rookie? You brought black zone]

[ I cant see a single WePla Award?]

What is the WePla Award? I opened a new portal site window and searched.

It sounded like a word meaning a contemplative appearance preferred by Climaxs agency, We Planet. 

Even Lim Hyunsung knew who Black Zone was. It was a male idol group that swept the music industry 7 years ago with the concept of wild and dangerous men.

Even if the two unknown faces are second.

First of all, Seongwon and Sunwoo were beauties, however, theyre not tough-looking or masculine beauties.

Rather, isnt it rare to see such pretty-looking kids? Why did they dress young kids in clothes that dont suit them? 

After summarizing the shortcomings, I moved on to the second single.

[Climax Second Single: Beach BooM]

As if to prove that the release date is in August. On the album cover, all seven members were just taking off their tops.

A few members grabbed my eye wearing see-through or net jackets as if it were impossible not to wear one. 

[ The net is a bit ]

[ I accidentally pressed the cover and my eyes met 14 How do YouDo. Everyone, do you think its right?]

Of course, that thing ate the best comments, so all the comments were embarrassing. 

Should I think its a relief that theres no harsh curse?

The song itself was the best song to my ears.

But that guys comment.

It was a moment when I felt that there were many things to pay attention to when selecting album covers.

Then the third single and the first full-length album. The comments were also not good.

The debut single had the most likes, and the controversial second single received the most comments. 

At the time of the fourth single, the number of members was reduced to five.

Im wondering if there have been many protest comments in response to the members departure? 

It was finally time to look at the last single. I opened the comment section without letting go of the tension.
