    [This week’s Music Bung Bung #1 is none other than Rookies’ ! Congratulations!]

    “Waaa …

    This time, the Rookies’ activities were album activities, not digital singles like last time.

    Thanks to that, we were able to quickly achieve #1 on music shows without any problems, along with overwhelming music show sales.

    Since there was no group that could stop Rookies from winning first place on music shows, their activities went very smoothly.

    And the reason there is no group to compete with the Rookies is…

    [YW Planning Drug Scandal? It is known that the affiliated entertainer is under investigation for drug-related issues…]

    [Reason for Black Bomb’s Comeback Withdrawal: Is It Related to the Drug Case?]

    [YW Planning “… Nothing to say yet”]

    It was also because of the drug scandal.

    Due to the drug scandal that recently hit YW, YW’s Black Bomb, which was considered the most difficult opponent for the rookies this time, cancelled its comeback.

    “… … .”

    On my way back to my dorm after finishing my music show schedule, I looked up YW Planning’s drug-related articles on my phone.

    I was reading an internet article with a serious expression… .

    “Oh…, Unnie is watching this too. YW blew up big time this time, right?”

    Seo Yu-jin opened her mouth while looking at my phone screen.

    As Seo Yu-jin threw the first pitch, the other members sitting in front of her also responded.

    “There’s a story that the drug bust this time is Black Bomb among YWs… .”

    Yoo Seol nodded in response to Na Hanna’s words.

    “My friend is a YW backup dancer, and the one who got busted on drugs was Black Bomb’s Shin Siwoo?”

    “… Yes?!”

    When Yoo Seol mentioned the name Shin Si Woo, the members flinched.

    That would be true… .

    This was because Shin Si-woo had recently been openly showing interest in me and was ranked first in the Rookies’ enemy rankings.

    “That crazy bastard! I knew it!”

    Among the members who were dumbfounded, Park Yoo-jung was the first to come to her senses and shouted in relief.

    “Somehow, that person’s eyes were weird! The way he kept flirting with Yerin unnie also seemed like a pervert!”

    The other members nodded and shouted at Park Yu-jeong’s words.

    “That’s right! I had a weird feeling about that guy from the beginning!”

    “I’m embarrassed to have the same job as that person.”

    “Eight, we’re a negative person, so don’t even call him by his name. Don’t even talk about him!”

    So, at Seo Yu-jin’s suggestion, we decided not to talk about Shin Si-woo anymore.

    I was like that too.

    ‘That crazy bastard will pay for his crimes.’

    Shin Siwoo.

    The one who tormented Seo Yu-jin so much in her previous life… and the one who led Rookies to disband early.

    That crazy guy’s attention was turned towards me in this life, but I was able to shake it off with the help of the Brother Planning family.

    The reason Shin Si-woo is in trouble right now because of the drug case is probably because of the Hyungje Planning people.

    ‘Brother Planning… .’

    This is a place that is like a benefactor to me, who saved me from living a life that was like a swamp.

    After working in Rookies for a year, my memories of Brother Planning had faded a little… .

    ‘President Kang, Sang-gu oppa, Teacher Ji-woo, and the other older brothers and sisters… I miss them all.’

    Still, a strong longing for them remained firmly in the center of my heart.

    As good as the Rookies members are, the Brothers Planning family members are good.

    In fact, Naa Awa and Rookies were just a stepping stone to becoming idols for Brother Planning… and now the time to be with them was approaching.

    Of course, before that… .

    [Rookies Concert 30,000 seats sold out]

    [Site computer error causing a lot of inconvenience…]

    As a member of Rookies, I wanted to do my best for my last memories.

    Meanwhile, in an apartment in Gangnam.

    [7 missed calls from the CEO]

    “Fuck… , fuck… !”

    A man was tossing and turning on his bed in his studio apartment, suffering from a persistent headache.

    It was Shin Si-woo.

    “Fuck… !”

    A few days after Shin Si-woo fainted at the broadcasting station while meeting Ha Ye-rin.

    The positive drug test results for Shin Si-woo arrived at YW Planning.

    After that, drug rumors started to circulate in the entertainment industry… and the police started targeting YW, perhaps because they received information from the gangster.

    It was natural that Shin Si-woo’s position within YW would narrow.

    Shin Si-woo, who poured cold water on the rising success of YW Planning… was not viewed favorably by his colleagues.

    Even the connections he boasted about couldn’t help him.

    YW’s board of directors reprimanded him and… discussed, in the worst case scenario, terminating his contract and firing him.

    What bothered him the most was his anxiety.

    As of yet, other than YW, the police and the media do not know exactly who took the drugs.

    The moment his name spreads, everything he has accomplished will turn to dust and disappear.

    The fear that everything about you could disappear in an instant. And the hope that this incident might just pass since your name hasn’t been spread yet.

    It drove Shin Si-woo crazy.

    Likewise, drug brokers who smelled the scent stopped supplying cigarettes because their information was spread… .

    “Fuck… .”

    His life became increasingly miserable as he suffered from withdrawal symptoms.

    Those were truly hellish days.

    Why did it turn out like this?

    Shin Si-woo looked back on his past actions in a dizzying vision.

    and….

    “… I did nothing wrong.”

    Soon he came to a conclusion.

    Conclude that it was not your fault.

    Shin Si-woo, why did he become like this?

    …it was because of my love for Hayerin.

    Isn’t love a sin?

    Isn’t it wrong to fall in love at first sight?

    … isn’t it a crime to try your best to win love?

    Yes, that’s right.

    He just did his best for his love.

    He just didn’t care about the means and methods to convey his feelings to the girl he liked.

    The one who trampled on him… his love… his purity… was Ha Ye-rin.

    “Bad year… .”

    If you think about it, Ha Ye-rin has been like that from the beginning.

    In the fateful meeting, he seemed happy to meet a new person, but then he immediately looked at him with eyes worse than an insect.

    From then on, I didn’t just hate him, I ignored him and didn’t even treat him like a human being…

    “I did my best, why did you… .”

    Shin Si-woo glared at the photocard in his arms as if he was going to kill it.

    Black-haired Ha Ye-rin and blonde-haired Ha Ye-rin.

    From Hayerin in her younger days to Hayerin wearing different clothes for each season.

    All the faces were lovely, but… they were just as hateful.

    He hated her for ruining his life.

    As much as I loved her, the murderous intent that was hard to handle surged up.

    Yeah… , if I can’t have it, then I’d rather… .

    “… I just want to kill him.”

    A life that is already ruined.

    If I kill Ha Ye-rin and then die myself, wouldn’t we be together forever?

    “… Okay, let’s kill him.”

    From then on, Shin Si-woo started to plot a way to kill Ha Ye-rin like a crazy person or someone possessed by something.

    Before, my head was so confused… but once I set a goal, my mind started to work quickly as if it was clearing up.

    “… First of all, it’s dangerous for me to go there myself.”

    He’s such a famous person, and didn’t we see last time that even the Rookies members and NAS staff were wary of him?

    It was dangerous for him to go in person.

    In that case, we need to find a proxy to go to her instead… .

    Finding someone to replace him wouldn’t be easy.

    Shin Si-woo searched the Internet while pondering this.

    and….

    [Yerin Suho]

    “… … ”

    On various internet sites and communities, we were able to find a name that was obsessed with Hayerin.

    **

    Time passed and it was the day of the Rookies’ concert.

    Meanwhile, Rookies have raised their stock by dominating music shows and music charts, and even appearing on popular terrestrial and cable TV entertainment shows.

    It got to the point where even NAS Entertainment was seriously considering extending Rookies’ contract… .

    [ROOKIES will disband after this concert, NAS Entertainment side “No choice… ”]

    NAS, which was unable to easily narrow the differences in positions between each member’s original agency, announced that Rookies would disband after this concert as planned.

    Now really…, Rookies’ activities are almost over.

    As I was staring at the ceiling in deep thought in the waiting room, Seo Yu-jin came in with the aforementioned voice.

    “Unnies! There are so many of our fans outside!”

    “What?”

    The first to react to Seo Yu-jin’s words was Yoo Seol.

    “Eugene, you… The director told you not to show yourself to the fans.”

    “Don’t worry. I went secretly so no one saw me! But there are fans outside like clouds!”

    There are still 7 hours left until the concert starts… .

    We haven’t even rehearsed yet.

    But you’re saying there are already a lot of people gathered?

    ‘I’m curious….’

    The other members’ eyes sparkled as if they were all thinking the same thing as me.

    And Seo Yu-jin, who saw that… .

    “Are you curious too, Unnies? Let’s go check it out together!”

    He led us secretly with a playful smile.

    We pretended to go to the bathroom and followed Seo Yu-jin outside the dome.

    Then what you see is….

    “Wow… .”

    Just as Seo Yu-jin said, the fans gathered like clouds.

    People are gathered like this for Rookies’ first and last concert.

    ‘For us… .’

    It was only after seeing the huge crowds that I could truly understand what it meant to hold a concert.

    I had to sit in a daze for a while because something was pounding in my chest.
