Chapter Index

    “Hey, do you know why our country’s dramas and movies are loved abroad?”

    Seo Ye-rin, sitting across from Oh Yoon-ji, who is very drunk, closes her eyes for a moment and then answers with a sly smile.

    “Molu?!”

    “Hey, don’t you know that’s what an actor is?”

    “Molu?”

    Because I’m an actor, not a director or a writer.

    I thought in my head that I shouldn’t worry about what other people are doing and just excel in my role as an actor.

    Maybe because I was drunk, my words came out a bit concise.

    “Alphano.”

    “Oh my.”

    Oh Yoon-ji explains again while drinking beer.

    “It’s because I have a grudge. I have this grudge in my heart.”

    “Han?”

    “Yeah, I’m talking about the regret of separation. Our country is a divided nation, so men have to fulfill their military service, right?”

    Surprisingly, you talk a lot when you’re drunk.

    Seo Ye-rin thinks so, but continues listening.

    “That’s why college lovers often break up against their will or don’t meet for a long time. Since they go through such bitter experiences when they’re young, their unique emotions are well captured in movies and dramas.”

    It sounds like bullshit, but it also sounds strangely convincing, which lets me know that I’m drunk.

    “But why are you suddenly saying that?”

    “You’re part of that group, so I’m saying that experiencing a breakup like this isn’t such a bad thing.”

    “I’ll wait until the end.”

    “Huh.”

    Oh Yoon-ji lets out a sly laugh.

    “I knew it.”

    A single word that is quite meaningful and comes from experience stimulates and moves Seo Ye-rin.

    Seo Ye-rin immediately raised her hand and shouted at him more harshly than usual, telling him to stop talking nonsense.

    So while the two were drunk, they got into a kind of fight.

    Yoo Ah-rin was talking to Min Joo-hee.

    “That’s right. You shouldn’t cross the line like that. You know that, right?”

    “I know, I know.”

    “Honestly, we feel really bad too, but we accept it because you are our senior.”

    “Then, then.”

    The two of them are talking with their arms around each other’s shoulders as if they were sisters, but it’s hard to tell what they’re talking about since they’re so drunk.

    Choi Jin-ah, who was relatively normal, drank less alcohol not because she was strong against alcohol, but because she ate too much side dishes.

    “Ouch, I’m full.”

    She leans back against the chair, holding her chubby belly, and smiles contentedly.

    The drinking party of these people who gathered together unintentionally lasted longer than expected.

    * * *

    Bubble bubble.

    I think that soybean paste stew made in the morning has a kind of symbolism.

    Usually, isn’t this something that your family or spouse who lives with you makes for you?

    In that sense, Lee Seo, who was making soybean paste stew while feeling the chilly morning breeze, looked just like my wife.

    “… … .”

    If only you weren’t staring at me.

    “Hey, shall I warm up some rice?”

    When I asked cautiously, Lee Seo nodded with a sharp reaction.

    Like a husband going to throw away the trash while his wife is eating rice, I quickly went to the common area with a bowl of rice and warmed it up.

    Besides me, there are other people waiting in line to use the microwave.

    I tried to ignore the strange gazes of the people around me as I warmed up the rice.

    Without saying much, Lee Seo prepared a lavish meal with soybean paste stew, fried eggs, and even grilled spam.

    “Wow, this looks really delicious!”

    “… … .”

    Yiseo still didn’t say anything.

    Despite Lee Seo’s silent reaction, I just kept bragging to myself that it was delicious.

    Eventually, we couldn’t even have a proper conversation until the meal was over, and it was time to check out, so we returned the key.

    “Please don’t do that again?”

    I bowed my head and apologized to the boss who just laughed.

    I returned the key to the counter and went outside, but did I overhear the conversation going on inside?

    Yishu was already on the bike and pedaling.

    “This, this is Seoya?! This is Seoyaaa!”

    If you leave me here, there’s really no way for me to go back!

    * * *

    “Ah, the smell of alcohol.”

    After I came back, Seo Ye-rin and Yoo Ah-rin were waiting for me in my dorm room.

    I could see hangover remedies lying around and the strange smell of haejangguk wafting from the room.

    “Did you drink yesterday? Did you order hangover soup?”

    “Oh, my head hurts so bad.”

    Yoo Ah-rin is lying on the bed with her hand on her forehead.

    Even though it’s a boys’ dormitory, he seems to have figured out a way to do it since he comes and goes without a care in the world.

    “Where did Lee Seo go?”

    “Come back and return the bike.”

    “Did you go alone?”

    “I said I would go alone.”

    Just by that, Seo Ye-rin’s eyes widened as if she had noticed something, and Yoo Ah-rin lifted her upper body and looked at me.

    “Did you two fight?”

    “What is it? What happened?”

    Two people speaking at the same time.

    Just the fact that Lee Seo went alone would tell you that the atmosphere is not good.

    “No, nothing happened.”

    Although he tried to cover it up, the two people obviously didn’t believe him.

    But I just pretended I didn’t see it, packed my clothes, and went into the bathroom.

    I think I need to take a shower first.

    “Didn’t you just keep doing it without stopping? That’s why you lost interest in Lee Seo!”

    “Hey, is that the first or second time? That girl was well prepared from the beginning.”

    “Positive?”

    “I should try a different approach. Did you misspeak? For example, when you were doing it, you suddenly called out, “Yoonji!” ”

    “Wow… … This is creepy.”

    “Right? It seems like it’ll be cheap.”

    “Yeah, if you do it with me and Woojini calls another woman’s name, I’ll kill you on the spot.”

    “I won’t kill you. But I’ll make you unable to walk for a few days.”

    This is fucking brutal.

    I’ve never made a mistake with a name before, but I promise I never will.

    “But that can’t be right.”

    “Right? If that were the case, Kim Woojin wouldn’t be here right now.”

    “Hehehe, that’s right.”

    Anyway, it’s dirty and murderous.

    I wanted to ask where he was, but I decided to just wash quietly.

    Even though I could hear the kids talking occasionally, it was interrupted by the sound of the shower, so I was able to shower quietly.

    When we came outside, the topic had already changed and we were both looking at our phones.

    ‘That’s fortunate.’

    I was worried about how I would answer if asked further questions.

    “Hey, you wrote something in the bamboo forest?”

    “Huh? Oh… … That?”

    The story is about finding the next manager for the bamboo forest.

    Yoo Ah-rin asks calmly.

    “Just give it to me. I’m the number one manager.”

    “I can give it to you if you want. But I don’t think you’d really want to.”

    “… … .”

    Yoo Ah-rin, who was about to answer what I said, closed her mouth again.

    It seems like he hit the nail on the head.

    “I was the one who half-forced you to do it from the beginning.”

    “That’s right.”

    Yoo Ah-rin nodded her head sheepishly. Thinking back then, we only fought each other.

    “Anyway, the bamboo forest manager will let anyone who wants to do it.”

    “Do you want to have a face-to-face interview?”

    “Are you crazy? If there’s someone who just wants to do it, you should do an autopsy of all the posts and comments they’ve written so far, and if you think it’s okay, you should let them sit down.”

    “Oh.”

    “Surprisingly, there was a lot of support.”

    “I applied too!”

    Seo Ye-rin raises her hand and smiles.

    “That’s right, he applied too.”

    Anonymous69 also came separately saying that he wanted to be an administrator.

    “I’m telling you in advance because you haven’t replied yet, you’re out.”

    “Why?!”

    “Why? Can you elect a person who spams sex all day long as an administrator?”

    “What if I become an administrator?”

    “Hehehe.” Seo Ye-rin’s expression as she laughed playfully was quite charming.

    Since it was obvious that the rest of what was being said was going to be something obscene, I decided to just pretend I didn’t hear it.

    “Will you continue to do bamboo forest without him?”

    “Huh? I was originally named Daesup before I met Woojini.”

    “Why are you so proud of that?”

    When Yoo Ah-rin tilts her head, saying she doesn’t understand, Seo Ye-rin smiles and shows her the bamboo forest on her phone.

    “There’s a lot of fun stuff! Look at this, someone copied it from another community today.”

    “What is it about?”

    “I went out to play and heard the couple next door having sex and moaning!”

    “Ugh. You only like things that are exactly like that.”

    But Seo Ye-rin reads it and says it’s really funny.

    “They said they heard noises around 10 o’clock after dinner. At first, they thought they had started early and tried to ignore it?”

    “Ah, I’m not curious.”

    I wonder.

    As I entered the bamboo forest, I immediately saw the post with the most comments.

    – I think the window was open. The woman was sobbing really hard, and the man seemed a bit rough (laughs).

    – When I heard that, I immediately told myself that I couldn’t lose. Then, I got fired up and said that I would do my best.

    – But this doesn’t end in one go, right? At first, I laughed, thinking, “The second round is about to start. I bet we can do that too.”

    – This definitely started at 10, but I could hear it until 4 or 5 in the morning. My wife was screaming that it was just a pornographic video playing.

    – The noise finally stopped after the owner himself went there.

    – Was it really a porn? My wife and I still have different opinions! Unfortunately, I haven’t seen their faces, but I’m taking this opportunity to tell you.

    – Thank you~ Thanks to you, my love and I had a really hot night~(embarrassed)

    “… … .”

    After reading the text, I took a deep breath and said to the two people, ““후.””

    “Don’t tell this to Seohan.”

    “Huh? Why? It’s funny.”

    “Choi Yi-seo has become somewhat tolerant of this kind of thing now, so it’s okay-.”

    The two people tried to say something, but eventually reached the truth that should not be reached, and their expressions gradually changed to one of shock.

    “No way this is it.”

    “You guys?!”

    These two people finally found out why Choi Yi-seo was angry.
