Today’s drinking party was at a pork belly restaurant.
A cheap, unlimited refill restaurant with plenty of food.
Personally, when I decide to go to an all-you-can-eat restaurant, I feel at ease.
Since I was young, I grew up eating delicious food without worrying about money.
That’s the past, and now I’m a college student looking for a part-time job.
Even though I still have the lump sum I earned while working at Gold One, I can’t live on that alone for a year.
Before entering the unlimited refill meat restaurant.
I was waiting at the playground where I had decided to meet Chanwoo.
Chanwoo said he would like to introduce his girlfriend separately.
‘How many times will I be introduced to this?’
If you add up to now, it’s three times as far as I can remember.
Besides, you’re dating a girl majoring in English.
Now it seems that everything from construction and public goods to external exports is being done.
“Anyway, I’m not worried about good-looking guys.”
I’m waiting, grumbling and riding on the swing at the playground.
“What are you doing?”
A familiar voice came from behind.
Maybe it was because of the sunset, but Oh Yun-ji’s hair looked much redder than usual.
“Uh, uhh. Hi.”
I hesitated a bit, but I thought I said hello in a good way.
Oh Yun-ji taps her shoulder and sits on the swing next to her.
“Don’t be awkward. We’re just friends now.”
“Are you able to do that?”
“If that’s what you want.”
Phew.
I felt a complex mixture of many emotions, but it was difficult to express them in words.
So I just kept my mouth shut, and Oh Yun-ji asked me a question.
“Why are you waiting here? Lee Seo and the kids went into the store first?”
“Chanwoo asked me to take a quick look in front of him. But why are you here?”
“I ended up here while looking for a smoking area.”
what?
“Smoking? You didn’t open it.”
“Is it because life is hard? It’s blooming.”
At the same time, he snatches Yunji’s wrist as she rummages through her pockets.
“Stop smoking and give me all your cigarettes. Why would you want to put something in your child’s mouth that is bad for his health?”
“Are you worried about me?”
I make eye contact with Yunji, who is sitting on the swing and looking up.
“I was nagging you.”
I couldn’t say I was worried, so I answered in a roundabout way, and he pulled out to take the cigarette out of my pocket.
“Ta-da.”
What came out of there was a lollipop.
Chupa Chups.
“I was just joking.”
“Ha.”
I felt cold for no reason.
As I sat down on the swing again and moved it to get some air, a question suddenly occurred to me.
“Then why are you here?”
When I asked Yunji while looking at her with candy in her mouth, she looked at me clearly and answered.
“I came to look for you because you weren’t there. Or wait for something to come from outside.”
Stop the swing you were riding on.
Looking at me like that, Yunji lets out a helpless laugh.
“Can’t I do this too?”
“No, it’s not like that-.”
“Kim Woo-jin!”
The moment I was about to reply, Chanwoo Jeong walked towards me from far away.
I was obviously going to introduce him to my girlfriend, but I don’t know why he didn’t show up and came alone.
“What about your girlfriend? He said he would introduce me.”
“Ah, haha.”
Chanwoo Jeong scratches the back of his head because it feels awkward. He looks at Yunji next to him and whispers softly.
“I went home after a fight.”
“You said you had a fight? Are you?”
On the outside, he looks like a cold man from the city, but on the inside, Chanwoo has good manners, so why would he fight?
“Uhm, my ex-girlfriends often contact me and I caught it.”
“This is really-!”
The moment I was about to call you crazy.
Next to me, Oh Yun-ji is staring at me with her eyes twitching.
“… … That could be – ha. I don’t know. I can’t do that. It seems like it could be possible.”
“He got angry even though I told him that we should just be friends and that’s how we would stay.”
“So. Are you going in to eat?”
“No, it’s an English department dinner, so there’s no need for me to attend. I came here to tell you that.”
“Hey, Chanwoo. Shouldn’t you get some dating coaching somewhere?”
“They say those things are all scams.”
After talking briefly with Chanwoo, I look at Yunji again.
“A male friend… … ?”
It bothered me that he looked touched, but I decided to just ignore it for now.
Chanwoo eventually left, saying he would comfort his girlfriend, and only Yoon and I remained.
“Thank goodness, Woojin.”
“I won’t listen to what’s good.”
“Having a male friend.”
“… … .”
I said I wasn’t listening.
Anyway, I ended up going to a pork belly restaurant with Yunji.
Everyone was already gathered around, eating, drinking, and having fun while grilling meat.
“Wow, that meat is all cooked, so look at it coming.”
Yoo Ah-rin, who was grilling with tongs for some reason, gestured in this direction and grumbled.
Then, when she saw Yunji next to me, her expression hardened slightly and her actions stopped.
“The atmosphere itself doesn’t have the same feel as English.”
Rather than an English department, it’s just an atmosphere where you invite all the familiar faces and have fun together.
Maybe that’s why it wasn’t a very strange picture even with Yoonji in it.
I’m trying to find a seat, but it’s already unclear.
Seo Ye-rin and Yoo Ah-rin have Han Bom from the design department and Lee Seo-ah from the theater and film department.
Choi Yi-seo’s side is crowded with kids from other English departments.
It would be natural since Choi Iseo is a huge fan and also very popular.
“Oops. My place was also taken away.”
Yunji is sad that her position has disappeared.
I thought there was no other place, but then an empty seat caught my eye.
It was Ahn Hyun-ho’s seat in front of a table for four.
“Why are you sitting here?”
This is the guy who is complaining to me.
Ahn Hyeon-ho had also just arrived and was just now grilling meat. I felt awkward so I smiled back.
“Let’s just sit together for a while. There is nowhere to sit.”
“Table You can just get a new one. I’m going to talk seriously.”
“That’s because it doesn’t work.”
If we get a new table, won’t we be able to sit together with Yunji?
I won’t repeat the mistake Chanwoo made just now.
Yunji naturally sat down next to me and said hello to Ahn Hyun-ho. He looked a little surprised because he knew we dated in the first semester.
More than that.
“Serious talk? What serious talk?”
For no reason, I hit the player first before Ahn Hyun-ho speaks about Yun-ji.
Looking at the spoon and chopsticks on the seat next to me, it looks like someone was eating together.
“Kyu-ah said she wanted to talk. Now I went to get some drinks.”
“Senior, I’m here-.”
At that moment, Gyu-ah came out and looked at Yun-ji, and her expression hardened.
I smile and pretend like nothing is wrong and introduce Yunji.
“Hello, this is Oh Yun-ji. I dropped out last year. I’m going back to school this second semester. Be friendly.”
“Ah, hello.”
“This is Kim Kyu-ah. Other than that, I don’t really know much.”
“This is Gyu-ah Lee.”
Well, I didn’t even know that.
“They said they were talking about something serious. Don’t worry about us, just do your work.”
“That’s right, we played on our own when I was there anyway.”
“Why are you talking about that time again…? … .”
“I am the best at that… … .”
I was speechless, but decided to eat meat first.
I tried to bring a separate pair of tongs, but Ahn Hyun-ho was already grilling the meat to prevent it from burning.
“Well, I already know everything about Kim Woojin.”
What is there that I don’t know about the relationship between Gyu-ah and Ahn Hyun-ho?
In fact, I was Cupid.
Maybe that’s why we both decided to start talking.
I think there was some thought that it would be difficult to talk if it wasn’t now.
“So it’s Gyu. I’m sorry, but I have no intention of doing well with a cheating girl.”
“Here, please give me some soybean paste stew. Do you still only eat pork belly when you eat meat?”
“Hyeonho oppa. That’s right I did that. But it really isn’t anymore. I changed my mind.”
“Yes, I only eat bean stew. The meat’s richness and savory taste are perfect.”
“You want me to believe that? You were the one who was shot in the bamboo forest last time, right? Being criticized for being a reptile.”
Oh, the bamboo forest is still frozen.
We can solve it later.
“The meat is very good for an all-you-can-eat restaurant.”
At Yunji’s words, I nod, quickly snatching up the cooked meat.
“Okay, I should remember it here.”
“That is all cooked.”
“Oh, thank you.”
At that time, Gyu-ah, who found out that she was the one who was accused of being a reptile, was embarrassed and quickly made an excuse.
“Well, that’s not me!”
Yunji looking at me.
He asked me if I knew anything because I was the manager of the bamboo forest.
In fact, at that time, Yunji contacted me separately to ask if I had been assassinated.
“He’s right.”
When I put the ssam in my mouth and mutter it, Gyu-ah and Ahn Hyeon-ho’s eyes shoot at the same time.
“… … We talked about it among ourselves. You guys talk to each other.”
I swallow my food hastily and then make up an excuse to get it over with.
“Look. You’re lying again. If you really wanted to date me, you should have been honest right now!”
“Well, I did that because I was afraid of being hated by my senior. I’m really sorry.”
“I ate all the meat.”
“I have to go and get it.”
I left the two of them fighting and Yunji and I went together and brought the meat.
I am very satisfied because here, not only pork belly but also meats such as pork neck, pork belly, and pork belly are also available.
I brought it in with a lot of humming, but it looks like they’re still talking about it.
“I organized everything. It’s real!”
“What does that matter? I mean you can do that again!”
He gently pushes the plate containing the meat towards Ahn Hyun-ho.
And as the two were staring at each other, Ahn Hyun-ho clenched his teeth and roughly placed the meat on the grill.
Sizzle, sizzle.
“Seeing this reminds me of when I went camping a long time ago.”
“Why do you bother bringing up old stories?”
“That’s all there is. Then, should I ask you how far you and Lee Seo have gone?”
“… … The ramen was really delicious back then.”
“Right?”
Smiling brightly, Yunji checks the meat again.
“So why on earth am I-!”
“Hyeonho, turn over.”
“Ah, yes.”
I think he was trying to say something cool, but Oh Yoon-ji interrupted the flow.
It looks like the meat is roughly cooked.
As soon as Ahn Hyeon-ho cut the meat into chunks with scissors while talking, our chopsticks quickly went towards the meat.
“But there is no Myeongnamul here. Didn’t you like that?”
Yunji answers my question while wrapping ssam.
“That’s right, but it’s a bit wrong to expect everything from unlimited refills to Myeongnamul.”
“I see.”
Well, then that would be it.
I also wrap some ssam and take a big bite.
Oh Yun-ji and I are eating ssam while munching together.
Hyun-ho Ahn puts meat back on the empty grill.
“In the end, you brought this situation upon yourself- no, wait a minute.”
As I was watching Gyu-ah and I talking while chewing, Ahn Hyun-ho’s eyes turned in this direction.
“Is there someone who grills the meat and someone who eats it? Why are you the only ones eating it?”
“Wow wow wow!”
“Chew it all and then speak.”
Chew it all quickly and then answer again.
“Wow wow wow!”
Actually, it wasn’t much of a story.
I just responded as if I was making an excuse.
“이 개새끼가.”
The moment when Ahn Hyun-ho was very angry and was about to yell something at me.
“Right?”
Yoo Ah-rin, holding a glass of alcohol, appeared with her arm draped over the back of my chair.
“ It is very old? ”
The way he was staring at me and forcing the corners of his mouth to raise was already creepy.
Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!
Cell phones ringing at the same time.
– Seo Ye-rin: I want to have sex.
– Seo Ye-rin: I want to have sex.
– Seo Ye-rin: I want to have sex.
– Seo Ye-rin: I want to have sex.
– Seo Ye-rin: I want to have sex.
When I glance at Seo Ye-rin, she looks at me with a blank expression and continues to tap on her cell phone.
At least I thought Choi Yi-seo was okay.
“Haha.”
The moment I saw him smiling brightly and looking this way, I felt something was very wrong.
“Uhm, Woojin. This is the style of soybean paste stew you like.”
In the meantime, Oh Yun-ji appealed that she knew my tastes well without any notice.
“… … .”
When I saw him smiling, it wasn’t that he didn’t notice, it was intentional.
“Ah, this.”
I thought of a word that was much more fitting than the word fucked.
“Jung Chan-woo is done.”
I never thought I would follow in the same footsteps that bastard did.
… … But when I heard that it was Jung Chan-woo, I secretly shrugged my shoulders and didn’t feel too bad.
