“Now, this concludes the audience’s on-site voting! and… , Let’s meet the main characters who have just completed great performances! Team 1 and Team 2! Please come out!”

“Waaa-!!”

After the audience’s on-site voting, we went out to the stage to judge the results and conduct interviews.

During the first team competition, we watched the results in the waiting room, so this was our first time stepping out in front of the audience after the performance.

Is that why?

“Kyaaa-!”

“Waaa-!”

Witnessing the heartbreaking cries of fans crying out for us right in front of us… , I couldn’t help but stiffen up a little because I was nervous.

“Please say hello to the fans from Team 1, who performed on stage earlier!”

So, I hesitated at Han Si-woo’s progress and bowed my head towards the fans.

“… Hello, this is Team 1 leader Yerin Ha.”

It was a greeting that was too rigid and unappealing to be an idol.

but… .

“Waaa-!!”

“So pretty-!!!!”

“I love you, Hayerin-!!!!”

The cheers of fans calling for me right away were at a level that literally made me leave the filming set.

Have I ever had so many people call my name at once?

… Absolutely not.

Is that why?

I had a blank expression on my face until the other team members greeted the fans.

And while I was making a blank expression, all the team members finished saying hello and moved on to individual interviews.

“Miss Yerin.”

“Ah… , yes.”

“Today’s performance of Strawberry Filter’s reinterpreted with a dark image was quite impressive. It must not have been easy to produce such a high-quality stage in such a short period of time, but wasn’t it difficult?”

“Ah… .”

When Han Si-woo asked if it was difficult, I paused for a moment and then grabbed the microphone.

“… Honestly, it was very difficult. Even if given just one hour, it would be difficult to tell all the hardships we have gone through.”

“… … Yes?”

“I don’t have time to eat or sleep… , I thought I was going to die.”

Han Si-woo looked momentarily dumbfounded at my answer.

I am now… , I was revealing my feelings very honestly.

“Ah… , haha. Miss Yerin. It must have been very difficult.”

“Yes, it was difficult. Just a moment ago, I was on the verge of collapsing. however… .”

While speaking up to this point, I had a blank expression along with my characteristic expressionless expression.

But the next moment… .

“… Seeing the fans in person like this.”

“… … .”

“… I’m not tired at all. Thanks to you all. Thank you so much.”

I was smiling so widely that I could feel the corners of my mouth rising.

And as I put down the mic with a smile… .

“Aaaa-!!”

“Ha Ye-rin-!!”

“Wow, I’m more thankful-!!!”

“I love you, Hayerin-!”

“Waaaagh-!!”

“Hehehe… !!”

Thunderous cheers erupted as if it was just a joke.

“Ha Ye-rin-!! Haye-rin-!!”

“Ha Ye-rin!!!!”

It was impossible for Han Si-woo to proceed because of the Yeonho directed at me.

I took advantage of that opportunity to give a small wave to the fans who were calling out to me at the top of their lungs.

That became a catalyst and the cheers got louder.

At that time, Nahanna slowly approached me and whispered in my ear so that only I could hear.

“… Sister, you are good at handling your fans.”

“Training? What do you mean, that?”

“Ah… , you did it without knowing. It’s a heavenly fox, very.”

Nahanna just said something meaningless, then shook her head and returned to her seat.

About 30 seconds after Na Hanna returned to her seat, the situation calmed down to the point where Han Si-woo’s voice could barely be heard.

Han Si-woo smiled as if the current situation was not that unfamiliar and proceeded skillfully.

“Haha, this was the part where you could feel Yerin’s love for her fans. ruler! Then, shall we continue with the interview with the next participant?”

Perhaps because we completed the stage successfully, the rest of the team members finished the interview in a warm mood, just like me.

“So far we’ve been in team 1! Thank you for your hard work!”

“Thank you!”

and… .

“Okay, now let’s start the interview with Team 2!”

The long-awaited interview with the second team has begun.

“First, let’s say hello to the fans of Team 2!”

Team 2… Is it because they ruined the overall stage?

Every time each individual greeted the fans, there were fewer cheers than our first team.

but… .

“Hello, fans. This is Team 2’s rumor!”

“Waaa-!!!”

“Kaaa-!!”

“Yu theory-!!!”

When Yoo Seol said hello, the cheers were almost as loud as mine.

And the expression on Seo Yu-jin’s face when she sees such a rumor… .

Jerrit.

… It wasn’t good either.

‘… ‘Eugene.’

Every time I saw Seo Yu-jin’s expression, I couldn’t help but feel frustrated.

This place is on a different level from when we filmed by ourselves.

So far, the production team has been friendly to Seo Yu-jin, so she has been able to overcome many crises… , aren’t there more than a few hundred members of the general public now?

‘… If you make a mistake here, you could get caught right away.’

Therefore, I hoped that Seo Yu-jin would manage her facial expressions.

Fortunately, Seo Yu-jin seemed to be aware that there were a lot of people here right now, and closed her eyes and put on a calm face, as if she was suppressing her anger.

‘… Yeah, that’s better.’

Anyone can see that he is dissatisfied with something, but isn’t it better than showing an angry expression in public?

With the same feeling as watching a tightrope walk, the personal interviews of Team 2 began.

The personal interview started not with Seo Yu-jin, who was the leader and center of Team 2, but with Yoo Seol.

“Yuseol participant. I know you weren’t feeling well during the second team competition. How are you feeling now?”

“Aaaah… .”

When Han Si-woo asked about Yoo Seol’s physical condition, sighs came from the audience who did not know this.

Yu Seol smiled weakly at the fans who were worried about her and then answered.

“… It was a mild body aches. I’m sorry for causing you unnecessary worry. More than anything… .”

Sze-.

Yu Seol’s gaze turned towards the other members of Team 2.

“I feel so sorry to my team members who felt like they were harmed because of me… .”

“No-!!”

“It’s okay-!!!”

When Yoo Seol apologized to his teammates in a sad voice, a voice from the audience said that it was okay again.

Well, from a third party’s perspective, it didn’t seem like Yu Seol was at fault.

Rather, Yoo Seol, who showed excellent quality performance on his own despite being sick, looks amazing, and the members of the other two teams seem to have less skills than the sick person on stage.

Yu Seol looked at Seo Yu-jin, who was the leader and center among them, and said.

“In particular, Yujin, who was in charge of both leader and center, had a hard time. I would like to say that I am most sorry to Eugene. and… .”

After a short apology to Seo Yu-jin, Yoo Seol’s gaze turned towards the fans.

And Yu Seol immediately lowered her head, crying with a face full of emotion.

“Thank you to the fans who sent a lot of support even though the stage was lacking.”

“Aaaa-!!”

The singer bows his head to the fans and the fans yell that it’s okay.

It was truly a touching sight.

‘As expected, he is a professional.’

How can you create such a warm atmosphere through that ruined stage?

From a third party’s perspective, it was an interview that left only admiration.

But it seems there was someone who didn’t like this interview.

“Okay, then let’s move on to the interview with the next person. Participant Seo Yu-jin.”

“… Yes.”

“As a leader and center, how do you feel after completing this second team competition?”

“… Phew.”

As soon as Seo Yu-jin grabbed the microphone, she let out a long, long sigh.

Murmur.

The participants as well as the audience began to murmur at the sigh that suddenly poured out as if cold water had been poured on the warm atmosphere.

I guess it’s because we’ve seen each other quite a bit now.

I could tell that Seo Yu-jin was very upset right now.

‘no way… .’

It’s a really ridiculous story… , Just because I’m angry right here and now doesn’t mean I’m going to do something ridiculous… .

And Seo Yu-jin was a girl who would do anything.

“… Honestly, it was a very disappointing performance for me personally.”

“… … .”

The atmosphere became cold from the moment I said that, but it was okay up to that point.

Anyone can say that the stage was disappointing… , because it was something that could be easily resolved.

But the problem was next.

“And I think that responsibility lies with Seol!”

“… Participant Seo Yu-jin.”

“I wish I could do this well… , Seol did not participate in practice with the excuse of being sick… ! It’s clear they did it on purpose to stand out in the competition!”

“… … .”

I begged her not to do that a hundred times, but in the end, Seo Yu-jin said everything that was on her mind.

Of course, it would have been unfair for Seo Yu-jin.

He would have wanted to find out the truth.

Accordingly, Seo Yu-jin, who has always lived in her own kingdom, probably said what she wanted to say at the most unfair time.

As usual… , He must have been confident that the people around him would pay attention to what he said this time too.

But this was a place where there were many people who sided with others more than Seo Yu-jin… .

“… … .”

“… … .”

As soon as Seo Yu-jin finished speaking… , a silence that was unbelievable even though it was a set with hundreds of people gathered.

“… … Huh?”

When people reacted coldly, Seo Yu-jin looked embarrassed as if she hadn’t thought about it at all.

‘… ah.’

Seo Yu-jin’s expression is like that of an idiot… , it couldn’t be more unfortunate.

She lived her entire life without ever being noticed by anyone, and it was clear that she would regret this moment for the rest of her life.
