episode_0050

First of all, as I said before, I had no intention of attracting the attention of the soccer team. As someone who had previously been asked to shake hands countless times by other sports teams, all I could think was that I would never experience that again.

As I deliberately made my way to the center line, something strange began to happen again. The soccer team’s sharply tense momentum calmed down again, and they began to move slowly, just like they had against Class B before.

It was a change of attitude so quickly that it seemed like it was because of the feeling of living rather than living that I had felt a few seconds ago.

‘Why on earth are you doing that?’

There was no way to know yet what their intentions were. However, I didn’t come here to play a serious game, so why would I bother to find out and use it for something? All I had to do was kick the ball around a few times and then go home when the time came.

Wow-

He pretended to dribble roughly and passed the ball to an unmarked boy in his class, then hit the stake right where he was standing. Everyone was scrambling to score a goal, but as I was standing far away, I felt like a spectator.

“Everyone is working really hard. Well, it’s when I’m at the peak of my energy.”

In fact, the club experience is just an experience, but from the club’s perspective, it was like a testing ground to select new members. They say you can just join an unpopular club if you want, but in the case of a popular soccer club, wouldn’t you have to perform to a certain extent to show off your business card?

So everyone was working hard to get noticed by the members. Of course, Yoon Dong-gun was also included, and his more serious eyes than ever were quite impressive. If you always do that, at least you won’t feel angry.

“Nice!”

Looking at Dong-gun Yoon like that, I saw that he was a guy who received a pass at a good angle and then hit it and started running. Just by looking at his movements and form, he was someone who lived several levels higher than other students. At that level, compared to other members of the club, it seems to be no different.

But.

“….what?”

The moment Yoon Dong-gun caught the ball, the lost momentum of the soccer team began to sharpen again. The members who were moving slowly surrounded Dong-gun Yoon in an instant, and in a one-to-many marking situation, Dong-gun Yoon had no choice but to lose the ball.

A situation that cannot be understood. The member who stole the ball made a ridiculous pass miss and then deliberately returned the ball to our class. And the ball was naturally passed to the student in front of the goal.

“Hooo!!!”

The goal was reached without much difficulty. It was a difficult goal to call that great, but I was happy about it, and it ended with a ceremony by someone, one of my older brothers.

I was more impressed by the goalkeeper’s acting ability, which moved slowly like a high-speed camera motion, rather than the trajectory of the ball. It’s not some kind of miracle of Moses, but does it make sense to throw a ball that even Park Ha-eun could catch? Even if you look at this, aren’t you looking at it too much?

“…….”

Dong-gun Yoon was wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, looking quite embarrassed. Everyone on the soccer team acted as if nothing had happened, but this was clearly an action to mark Dong-gun Yoon. I wonder if he was overly lax towards the other guys, but was particularly strict with Yoon Dong-gun.

Even when I look back on my past memories, this kind of development clearly never happened. The memory of being checked by the soccer club while playing as Yoon Dong-gun did not exist, at least before joining.

In fact, everyone was actively encouraging Dong-gun Yoon to join the team after seeing his soccer skills, but they had no idea how this happened.

“Hey, can you see that kid’s expression? You must be really surprised.”

“You came up thinking you had everything going for you, but now that we mark you, you can’t do anything. I heard there was no point in trying to fly in middle school?”

“They say the child is not picky. There is a reason why Hyunseong said his brother was George.”

“I tried to harass Hyunseong even if he didn’t say anything. I heard that a bastard who looks like a gisaeng brother is so fucking flirtatious. I’m putting a lot of pressure on my shoulders because I’m popular with girls, but I need to give Gao some credit here. Kikikick.”

Thanks to the members passing by and chatting with me, the mystery began to be solved in no time.

So to sum it up, it seems that the captain, Park Hyun-seong, played politics with the members first. He must have felt dissatisfied with Yoon Dong-gun, who received a lot of attention from students even though he was a freshman, and due to his dark-hearted nature, he would have preferred to take advantage of the members of the club rather than step forward himself.

So, it was obvious that they had their members mark Yoon Dong-gun excessively during the experience session, and that they were trying to use that as an excuse to get him eliminated from the entrance examination with the excuse that he ‘didn’t perform well’. If Yoon Dong-gun joins, he will attract the attention of everyone in the soccer club, and the same will apply to the female supporters.

From the perspective of Park Hyun-seong, who knowingly or unknowingly was looking at several female students, including Oh Yoon-ah, Yoon Dong-gun’s joining must have felt like a disaster. He must have been the king of the soccer team, but he must have had complicated feelings because the stone that rolled around was like a rock and had to be thrown away.

‘Then why didn’t this happen when I played?’

However, the answer to that question was also simple. Isn’t it safe to say that when I played Yoon Dong-gun and the person he is now is almost a different person?

If the previous setting was that of a student with a heavy feel and an aura that was difficult to overcome, the current Yoon Dong-gun was closer to the so-called outgoing style. In a word, from the male students’ point of view, he has become a type that is somewhat unsightly.

However, no matter what, shortcuts should not be used in the admission screening process. What kind of unreasonable and ridiculous thing is being done in a place where everyone is given the same opportunity?

Of course, I didn’t come up with this idea because I was just. From my point of view, it was absolutely necessary for Yoon Dong-gun to succeed in joining the military, but if this continued, my plan would go awry. And then they do NTR again!! Please make NTR stop!!!

“…It will come out like this, right?”

The eokka that had disappeared seemed to raise its head and surround me. I put up with it once or twice because I thought I couldn’t help it, but I can’t stand it anymore. No matter what happens this time, I will definitely overcome it and restore Woohyo’s honor.

Beep-

The game started again at the center line with our class scoring 1 point. I slowly walked around the center line and started paying attention to the guy with the ball. I knew what he was saying, but in fact, it was almost like an unspoken pressure that he would kill me if I didn’t pass.

“Hee, hee hee…!”

Perhaps because he felt those gazes, it was my classmate who quickly handed me the ball with a look of horror on his face. If I hadn’t handed him the ball, we probably wouldn’t have been friends, but he was a quick-witted guy, so I upgraded his status to friend.

Tadadat-!

“Wow! Jiwoon is running!! It’s so fast!!”

Park Ha-eun, who was in the audience, jumped up at my sudden start of jumping. She used to get pouty because I didn’t do anything, but it seems like a lot of that pouting has disappeared now.

The soccer team continued to play loosely, as expected. Several people came to mark me, but instead of actively blocking them, they repeatedly let me go. People who don’t know anything about soccer would think I was the Messi and Ronaldo, but it was a play that was possible thanks to the team members just watching.

It wasn’t that difficult to get to the goal, and as expected, the path to the goal was clear. It felt like anyone other than Yoon Dong-gun was allowed to score a goal, but the focus was probably on toying with him as if to show off.

How evil could this be? Let’s play soccer and work hard, but what if young people are already learning about politics? From today, I will make sure that I will never be able to do that politics.

“….What!?”

Near the goal, my choice was to pass, not shoot. Everyone on the soccer team seemed surprised by the unexpected choice, but the reason why was because the end of my pass was aimed at none other than Dong-gun Yoon.

Not wanting to miss this opportunity, our hero quickly caught up with the ball and had a 1:1 chance against the goalkeeper. The other members rushed over, but the timing had already been missed.

Shoot.

and.

“Nice!!!”

Dong-gun Yoon’s shot hit the net with a fantastic trajectory. Unlike previous forced goals, it was a high-quality ball that the goalkeeper could not stop despite trying his best.

As expected, one thing was clear about his soccer skills. It would have been impossible for even a decent number of members here to shoot a shot like that in a real game. This is a superstar. Even though this is happening, aren’t you recruiting for the soccer team? You grit your teeth and say no??

Sigh-

Yoon Dong-gun, who came to me after the ceremony, was extending his hand to me like a famous scene from a boy’s cartoon. I was hoping to clap my hands as if to pay homage to a scene from Slack Dunk, but I just passed by him as if to look.

“Haha, you’re still very shy. Anyway, it was nice!”

“Stay only around the goalpost. If I catch it, I will give it to you unconditionally.”

“Ji, Jiwoonkun…!”

“Don’t look at me with those bright eyes. I’ll have to use this trick a few more times in the future.”

It was literally like that. Even I couldn’t keep the ball when the teammates started marking, so the opportunity was only valid until I was checked. Until then, no matter what I did, I had to succeed in providing more assists to Dong-gun Yoon.

Three goals. Yes, if there are three goals, even the guys on the soccer team will have nothing to say. After setting the target number on my own, I started running towards the center line again.

* * *

As the heated game grew more and more intense, the supporters stopped practicing and looked at the hopefuls for Class C. The one at the center of the gaze was by far Yoon Dong-gun, who had just scored a goal, so in a way, this was only natural.

“That oppa is very handsome. Do you have a girlfriend?”

“Even if you don’t have a girlfriend, it’s not yours.”

“Then whose is it?”

“Mine.”

“Wow. It tastes like rice.”

At a time when only praise and nonsense stories were being spread about Dong-gun Yoon, the girl with purple hair had her eyes fixed on someone else. Raon Middle School’s self-proclaimed idol, Oh Yoon-ah, was engrossed in a boy walking around the field with half suspicion and half wonder.

“Yoonya, who are you looking at? Are you by any chance our Donggeon brother?”

“Huh? It’s not him, why?”

“No, just in case. It would be difficult if we became competitors for love~”

A female student playfully touches her shoulder. Naturally, all the supporters were focused on Yoon Dong-gun, so of course it was a joking remark from a friend who thought Oh Yoon-ah would do the same.

“Specifically? I’m more attracted to the other side than that one.”

In “?? Why???”

“That’s right.. what should I say. Should I say that I found someone interesting?”

It was Oh Yoon-ah, with her legs crossed and her feet still fixed on someone. My friend followed the line of sight, but because of the ambiguous angle, he couldn’t figure out who the person was.

“Who, where!? Who is our idol Oh Yoon-ah’s favorite!!”

“I really like it. Who do you know as Geumsapa?”

“Anything!! Who are you!!!”

“Secret.”

A girl smiles and puts her index finger to her mouth. The eyes look like they were made of sapphires, and there are dark arcs around the eyes. Even friends of the same sex swallowed dry saliva at the sight of Mi-hyeong’s face, which did not at all deserve the title of idol, but rather was considered humble.

“This girl is making people’s hearts flutter with her face again. It’s going to attack you??”

“Aaagh~ No! no, I do not want! Don’t do it!”

“Illuwaight!!!”

Even while receiving a warm hug from her friend, Oh Yoon-ah was still looking at someone on the ground.

At the end of his gaze, for some reason, he seemed to see a man with bad-looking blonde hair, but only Oh Yoon-ah knew the truth.
