It’s something that I still don’t know.

The main course of a human’s life can easily change with even small alterations.

Pushing aside Yoon Jiyu’s interference and all sorts of provocations,

Jung Siwoo, who overcame his inferiority complex towards Song Seonghyuk, could break through his own boundaries and move forward.

But that is only up to my expectations.

Hoping and praying are for the very end.

Even if you put in all your efforts, revealing despair when you realize you can’t achieve it with your own strength is just another way.

“Tsk. If fate’s joke goes this far, it’s ridiculous.”

This isn’t even teasing.

The author who resurrected me as Chaewon must be making fun by saying, “Actually, the answer was Chaewon! Wink★.”

Or maybe it’s a balance patch?

Did they add conditions because it would be too easy for me to find the answer and advance to the realm of domination if I joined forces with Chaewon?

“Is me becoming a pianist like Song Seonghyuk a significant change in history?”

I’ll bring you back from death for free.

But I can’t provide the Super Pass that breaks limits and moves you forward.

If I want to change even the life I perceive as a loser,

That’s what I need to do.

With Jung Siwoo, two heads are better than one.

If I make an effort, could I find the answer?

… The fairy’s voice muttering nonsense echoes in my mind.

Ah. My head hurts.

“No. This is an opportunity.”

When I first resolved to fix my future,

I also decided to faithfully live Chaewon’s life.

So that when we return to our respective places, I was confident her life wouldn’t fall apart.

But what’s this? Chaewon is quite a well-known music YouTuber in the subculture scene, called Acler.

Since I’ve taken on her role, I must also run a YouTube channel just like Chaewon did.

I have to do cosplay and piano arrangements.

Surely, in this process, I can learn something new.

Unlike me, who couldn’t easily leave campus due to being a music major.

The current Chaewon can have many more experiences.

“Hmm….”

However, the more I skim through the videos uploaded on YouTube,

Fear creeps in.

Arrangements.

Me, who only knows how to copy others… Can I do it?

I might manage cosplay somehow.

But arranging is an area I dare not touch.

“If there’s any silver lining….”

In the next 2 years,

I perfectly remember the choreography of the videos uploaded until Acler’s YouTube activities end.

As I said, I have a genius talent for copying.

Recalling and reproducing without Chaewon’s arranged scores should be possible.

“But after that… there’s no need, right?”

For some reason, Acler will cease activities around April of the year after next.

I remember many fans, including myself, endlessly pleading on the YouTube community for her not to go.

I realized at that moment that fangirls can do things properly.

There was even a crazy person who said they would install homemade C4 explosives in a house full of Acler goods and die under the collapsing debris if she quit.

But like an idol graduating,

Acler eventually ended her activities.

Most fans bid farewell, hoping for Chaewon’s happy future.

“I don’t need to forcibly extend my activity period.”

Alright. I can do it.

Let’s give it our all.

Let’s show everyone the side of A that moved me.

“… And come to think of it.”

I casually turned on the album and flipped through the photos.

Among thousands of pictures, Chaewon’s selfies were scarce, mostly filled with Strelka photos.

“Czechoslovakian Wolfhound, was it?”

Seeing the size of Strelka in the photo taken with Chaewon, an exclamation escapes involuntarily.

“So huge!”

In a photo lying together on the wooden floor, Strelka appeared larger than Chaewon.

Is this the Wolfhound?

After reading through the breed description on Tree Wiki, there were even mentions of its stamina being so exceptional that owners couldn’t handle it.

— Me: Where is Strelka right now?

— HK: Strelka?

— HK: She’s at a pet hotel managed by Hanla Hotel.

— HK: It was something I was concerned about too. Shall we go see her now?

— Me: Just a little later.

— Me: When I go up

— HK: Sure, I’ll get ready.

Was there a reason for saving the maid as HK?

Whether it was in Chinese characters or had another meaning, I couldn’t possibly know since I’m not Chaewon.

“To film, I need to get friendly with Strelka beforehand.”

Alongside pianist A, Strelka, who always stayed by her side, also played a significant role in popularity with her tail wagging.

Like dancing to a rhythm, the tail swayed with the piano’s melody, inspiring numerous fan arts.

Some contained the vile desires of humans.

Kind-hearted Chaewon understood and found it amusing.

Yes, but I won’t forgive.

Dare insult Chaewon?

No matter how good the drawing is, I won’t ever forgive.

I’ll send a cursed doll anonymously to the doorstep of the one who drew and offered it.

“Then next…”

It’s time for a nerve-wracking check of the bank balance.

“Seob Phone’s account seems to be the one receiving NewTube earnings….”

Chaewon must have a separate account she manages herself.

Surely, funds to rescue Siwoo would be arranged there.

With a few fingerprint touches, the security was quickly bypassed.

An advantage of the modern age but also a disadvantage.

If someone takes control of me, everything will be exposed, won’t it?

Ah, but that won’t happen, will it?

[ Cocoa Bank ] 198295-002-****18

Balance: 818,000,000 won

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

I was so surprised I almost dropped my phone.

Who’s the one acting like they have 818 million won?

Me? Well done.

“Really, 818 million.”

Rich people are definitely different.

I expected Chaewon, my age, to have a substantial fortune, but seeing it was more shocking.

Well, I did vaguely notice when several maids roamed the hotel suite….

“But I shouldn’t spend recklessly….”

Still, it’s only fair to return the favor from yesterday, Chaewon, right?

If you agree, nod your head.

Nod, nod.

As expected of Chaewon. I knew you’d think that way.

And since if I send a lot, it’s obvious that this guy Jeong Siwoo won’t accept such money.

So, only transfer an amount he can accept.

Exactly 20,000 won. That should do it.

[ Bank transfer completed ]

[ Withdrawal: Min Chaewon / 20,000 won ]

Money sent. Next is securing the filming location, right?

“And come to think of it, does the maid know?”

She probably doesn’t, right?

She likely didn’t even realize Chaewon had Seob Phone in the first place.

“That means the original filming location was in Austria….”

Since Chaewon plans to stay in Korea for the next two years.

A studio needs to be set up separately in Korea.

Moreover, at this point, if you look at community posts, you can see that Chaewon posted a notice allowing for a month-long hiatus in uploads.

She seemed to understand the need to settle back in Korea.

“I didn’t receive any help from the maid….”

But it’s certain that she received support from someone.

At the bottom of the videos uploaded after moving the studio to Korea, there was always a subtitle that read ‘Special thanks.’

‘Special thanks to SSunH.’

SSunH.

Presumably a nickname of someone.

Without any clues, I rummaged through the regular donor list.

However, the answer was elsewhere.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

[ SSunH ] 23.04.02

Heard you’re coming back to Korea

Planning to continue uploading videos?

[ SSunH ] 23.04.03

I see

Need a location?

I’ll bring Relka along

I’ll look for a place where pets are allowed

[ SSunH ] 23.04.04

Found a nice place

Let’s go here if you like it

It’s a bit far, but I’ll drive you there

[ SSunH ] 23.04.05

No need to worry

You film every two weeks anyway

I can move around while taking a drive

If you want to skip weekend lessons, it’s fine

[ SSunH ] 23.04.06

No need to thank me

Rather, thank your parents who have guided you in many ways

I still vividly remember those three days and nights rolling around in the bed

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

The communication between the two took place in 2022, 2021.

It continued for several years.

During the time unknown to me, this guy called SSunH was all over the place.

Who is this guy?

Why is he so close to Chaewon? It annoys me.

Judging by the tone, he’s definitely a guy.

It’s almost a fact that he’s an alpha male, whether it’s my misconception or not, he seemed quite fond of Chaewon.

Jung Siwoo’s jealousy sensor reacts wildly.

This guy is dangerous, so he needs to be restrained.

‘I don’t know who it is, but it’s a pity.’

You probably won’t be able to get involved with Chaewon forever.

Because now I will interfere!

‘…Wait a minute.’

Isn’t this me messing with Chaewon’s life as I please?

We agreed not to do that.

‘Ugh….’

Could it be that I’m going back to Austria in a year because of this guy?

If the reason I quit YouTube activities in two years is personal, could it possibly be marriage?

‘Is this guy the one she’s marrying…?’

For whatever reason, this marriage cannot be interfered with.

Because I am nothing to Chaewon.

It’s about not twisting her chosen life as I please.

‘…Right. I shouldn’t forget.’

I borrowed Chaewon briefly to avoid death in three years and untangle my messed up life.

So it’s only natural to put her back where she belongs without a scratch.

I made the right decision.

‘I have no business interfering anyway. Let’s not worry about it.’

Reading the private message is, in a way, an invasion of privacy.

I had to see it out of necessity, but let’s forget everything except what I need to know.

It’s best to turn off all interest.

I’m too busy worrying about Jung Siwoo.

I was about to check other apps,

Ding dong.

A notification from the bank app rang.

As I pulled down the screen to check the content, I instinctively clenched my throat.

This guy is seriously clueless even when things are serious.
