episode_0058

Of course, it is very unfortunate that Lee Hye-jeong collapsed due to malnutrition.

Still, I thought that since something had already happened, it would be good to raise Lee Hye-jung’s awareness by making it an issue.

‘But if you cut that part out of the broadcast, there’s no way for viewers to know… .’

Now that I think about it, it was strange from the beginning.

There was no way the production crew knew that Lee Hye-jeong had lost a lot of weight compared to before. Because viewers also noticed her change right away.

-But who is he on the mackerel sandwich team?

-Who is next to Ha Ye-rin now?

-It’s him. The kid who got to 7th place in K Star.

-She’s Lee Hye-jeong?

-Wow, you’ve lost weight?

However, contrary to viewers’ interest, Lee Hye-jung was not assigned a separate episode in today’s episode.

Since it was not shown on broadcast, viewers who were initially curious about Lee Hye-jung’s changed appearance could not help but fade.

‘why… ?’

It’s not like the production team has any feelings towards Lee Hye-jung, so why aren’t they giving her this much screen time?

Even though it was because the production crew didn’t like my body shape in the first week, I have now lost weight and become a good-looking person, so why on earth… .

At that time, I couldn’t understand the reason, so I bit my nails out of worry for Lee Hye-jeong.

And later… , I found out the reason quite by chance.

This is the story of the third episode, in which Lee Hye-jung did not have any screen time.

There was too much content to go into the third episode.

The production team, who had to fit everything from the opening, team selection, song selection, practice, mid-term inspection, contest, and voting results into three episodes, was unable to fit that much content into the time, so they scheduled an additional hour.

So, to the production team, who already had a lot of content to include, Lee Hye-jeong’s story felt like it was not worth paying much attention to.

There was no time to waste by giving a useless narrative to a contestant who would eventually fail anyway.

From their perspective, Lee Hye-jung’s narrative was not very attractive.

However, as I did not know the production team’s position at the time of the broadcast, I could not help but be anxious about Lee Hye-jung’s small amount of screen time.

And as if against my feelings… .

[Ha Ye-rin (Brother Planning): I came up with an idea for an arrangement that would preserve the original song concept.]

[Ha Ye-rin (Brother Planning): We’re going to make nerd the main character.]

[You nerd… ?]

[Ha Ye-rin (Brother Planning): Okay, everyone come and look at this.]

[Participant Ha Ye-rin explaining her thoughts to her team members!]

[Park Yoo-jeong (Levi): Do you think it will be okay?]

[Seo Yu-jin (SAV): I think it’s worth doing.]

[Team members agreeing.]

-Nerd?

-Do Tailrose songs suit nerds?

-Hey

-Yerin probably has her own thoughts!

-Last time I saw the community, I heard that their team was tired of their performance, so I’m looking forward to it.

-Is that the kid who only practiced for a month? The real Yerin is a genius.

The team competition began with everyone’s expectations, with only my appearance focused on me as if I were a genius.

**

After the team competition, you could immediately tell what the stage was like from Lee Ji-woo’s reaction.

“Yerin ahhh-!!”

“Teacher Jiwoo? Ugh-!”

As soon as my performance was over, she lunged at me with a touched face.

“How-!! Crazy, crazy! Not to mention the dance, the concept is amazing! This performance was really performed by my student?! Isn’t he a total genius?”

“Just… , I was lucky. I told you. It was an accidental idea.”

Going with the nerd concept of was an idea that came to me by chance while watching the music video.

But Lee Ji-woo, who had already used the bean pod properly, buried her face in my chest and shook her head.

“Uuuuu~ No! I can say with certainty that it is not luck, but skill. And other than that, is there still something left to praise the most?”

“What should you praise the most? ah… .”

I tilted my head, but then realized what she was going to say and had to stop.

“The expression! expression! What the teacher always pointed out was facial expressions! But why is it that even the facial expressions on this stage are perfect! Ugh~ my baby! It’s bad, it’s bad! When did you work so hard on facial expressions?”

“… … .”

Right now, Lee Ji-woo is acting with an expression that compliments me so much that my saliva runs dry.

It was not a result of my hard practice, but a result obtained without any trouble through the 1st skill of Heavenly Demon Divine Technique, Heavenly Demon Illusion.

What is this fact… , I feel like my conscience has been pricked a bit.

“… That too just happened by chance.”

“Coincidence? Haha, our Yerin is humble~ But I’m sure you’re the only one who thinks that’s a coincidence, right? Now, look.”

Ji-Woo Lee said this and showed me the comment window, which is still growing at an incredible rate.

-I fell in love.

-Wow, really, the only sound that comes out is wah.

-It’s not a joke, Yerin votes every day.

-Just Dae Ye Rin

-Do you need to see more? Haye-rin wins anyway

-You’re really fucking pretty… .

-Did you say Yerin has her own thoughts?

-This is how I express it… .

-Really, the series is updated every episode.

-Where are those bastards who said they would go to hell if Ha Ye-rin’s team competed?

-How can she be pretty even with glasses on?

-For a moment, I thought he was confessing to me and was answering Yerin while looking into space. I’m really getting overly absorbed.

-This guy is just a genius, a genius.

At first glance, the comments are praising me so excessively that it seems unreasonable.

-Yoojeong was tired of this contest.

-Wow, Seo Yujin is so fucked up.

-Lee Hye-jeong I think her song is really Naaah’s top song.

Among them, there were people who cheered not only me but also other team members… .

-I love you, Yerin. really

-I’ve already debuted, so what are you broadcasting?

-Honestly, this performance was better than Tailrose, just God Yerin.

-What if you tear it up like this from the first stage… .

-Hey guys, while you have time to write comments, go vote today.

-I think Yerin will take first place at this ranking announcement ceremony.

… My name took up an overwhelming share of the Naaa streaming comments section, just like the comments section of my fan cafe post.

This atmosphere continued until the middle of the broadcast, when another team’s performance appeared.

-What about these guys… Here and there… .

-Ah, maybe it’s because I tore up the first stage so much, but the rest aren’t all that good.

-Haaaam… .

-Just let Yerin play it continuously on stage.

Viewers kept comparing my performance, which was first, to the performances of other teams that came next.

Thanks to this, I almost monopolized the comment section during the team competition that lasted over an hour.

And this atmosphere… .

[Han Si-woo: The next team to perform is the Veggie Sandwich team, who covered Bumblack’s !]

… The moment Yu Seol’s team was called, a rift appeared.

-Oooh

-at las!!

-Wow! The dog is cute

-Please be good.

-go for it

As if a wave was washing away the comment window, which had been covered only with my name until now, my name disappeared and began to be filled with Yu Seol’s name.

This became even more intense when Yu Seol successfully finished the stage.

-and

-Hey

-This guy is really at the level of a post-trainee.

-Yoo Seol really could debut right away.

-I’m just crazy.

-What did I see? Is this the Song Festival?

This time, the comments were so excessive that they seemed like a fuss, but in fact, Yoo Seol pulled off a performance of that quality.

“… He’s the real deal.”

Even Lee Ji-woo, who had already scolded me, said that.

In that way, their chant for Yu Seol continued for a long time.

And the moment the team competition ended with Na Hanna’s performance… .

-Ah haha, but isn’t it Ha Ye-rin rather than Yoo Seol?

As if they had been waiting, someone threw a rock into the comment window.

-Ah, but it’s more of a theory than Ha Ye-rin. I have time for a theory.

-The person who looked better was Ha Ye-rin.

-Honestly, just looking at the level of completion, it seems like the theory is approved.

At first, they just expressed their opinions freely and meekly, like a scene from a discussion.

However, this escalated in earnest after the team rankings were announced.

[Han Si-woo: The difference in votes between the 1st and 2nd place teams is only 4 votes.]

[Han Si-woo: The honorable first-place team is… , Congratulations! This is the mackerel sandwich team!]

-What

-what?

-and!

-of course

-What are you talking about? Of course Yerin’s team is in first place.

The Yu Seol fandom was not convinced that our team beat the Yu Seol team and took first place and expressed their dissatisfaction.

-Oh, what are you doing?

-No, anyone can tell that Yoo Seol did better.

-Are they really manipulating the number of votes?

-It’s so damn crazy haha. What kind of kid came from a shitty company?

Then, the fans cheering for me got angry at the words of the Yu Seol fandom and started pounding on their keyboards… .

-Yeah haha the fans of this 21-year-old old man are amazing~

-They’re manipulating the number of votes.

-If Yoo Seol was that good, he would have debuted in JJ.

-Why can’t you admit it?

Before we knew it, the two sides were tangled up in the comment section, slandering each other and fighting.

-ㅅㅂ Looking at Yeocho’s community, I saw that there were a lot of Ha Yerin’s fans, but they were voting for me by saying things like Girl Crushing, Girls Can Do Anything, etc.

-Yeo-deok is so crazy haha I’m a man ㅂㅅㅅ Shall I verify the picture of the pepper on the community?

-Yoo Seol came up with the girl crush concept, but even if you make an excuse haha.

-Do you want Haye-rin to sing or dance better than Yu Seol? A child with no luck gets such high evaluations

-This is a unique character that cannot be expressed in words.

-Honestly, Yerin is prettier than Yu Seol.

-Ha Ye-rin looks like a fucking queen bee, but the guys who suck at her just look like Centipede’s dad, so it’s like he’s a man to the core.

-Shouldn’t those bastards who are 160cm or taller and sucker for a girl of that size need to get a mental evaluation? dirty pedo bastards

-I think Ha Ye-rin will come in first place at the ranking announcement ceremony anyway. Ha Ye-rin will win anyway.

-Yeah, no, Yu Seol will take first place.

“Oh… .”

I enjoyed watching this more than I expected.

It was truly worth seeing the two sides being so divided that they brought out all they could to criticize each other.

but… .

widely.

“Huh? Teacher. I was still watching.”

“No, no. Children who don’t even have ID yet should not see things like this.”

While I was reading the comments pouring in, Lee Ji-woo covered the laptop monitor.

“Yerin, you have better filming tomorrow. They even said it was a ranking announcement ceremony right from the opening. I won’t be able to sleep well if I go filming, but I need to take care of my mental health and physical condition right now.”

“Ah… .”

Although I was dissatisfied with something, what Ji-Woo Lee was saying was actually the truth.

If I keep looking at the comment window and see excessive swear words directed at me, I’m sure I’ll have trouble sleeping at night.

So I nodded at her words.

“… I understand.”

“Yerin, can’t you leave it like this and secretly browse the internet at night? I have a promise with teacher.”

“Yes.”

Ji-Woo Lee felt relieved and smiled only after I even gave him a finger promise.

“Something might happen, so the teacher will watch the internet reactions all night long and if there is a problem, we will discuss it.”

“Yes, thank you, teacher.”

No matter what, Jiwoo Lee was giving only for me.

So, I trusted her and went back to the hotel and went straight to sleep without looking at my phone like I promised.

Starting tomorrow, there will be a ranking announcement ceremony and a second team competition, so it will be a tough schedule.

With the intention of sleeping while I could, I slept soundly until morning.

And the next morning.

Gathering time to the set is 8 o’clock.

Since it would take about 40 minutes by car, I decided to meet Hyungman Kang in the hotel lobby at 7 o’clock.

however… .

Ugh-.

“… Hmm? … Huh?”

Ugh-.

“… Is it late?”

Even though it was still dark, the phone was ringing anxiously looking for me, so I was startled and checked the phone.

[6:28 AM]

“… What is it?”

I set the alarm for 6:40, but I woke up 12 minutes earlier.

[Teacher Jiwoo]

“… What’s going on so early in the morning?”

I answered the phone in a slightly bad mood.

and… .

“Hello… .”

[Yes, Yerin! We’re in big trouble!]

“… … Yes?”

I could hear her voice calling me urgently.

“… What’s going on?”

[that is… , I think you should take a look first! It’s in front of your door, so open it quickly… !]

“Go ahead… ?”

From then on, I had to feel that something was unusual.

How big of a deal would it be for someone to come to your hotel room this morning?

And when I opened the hotel door… .

“… Yerin.”

“Teacher… , the face… .”

When I saw Lee Ji-woo’s face waiting in front of my door, I was certain that something was wrong.

It was as if she hadn’t slept a wink all night, and the dark circles around her eyes had stretched all the way down to her mouth.

“… What on earth happened?”

At that moment, all kinds of negative thoughts were running through my head.

school violence… .

Not this.

cigarette… .

I’ve never even held it with Haye-rin’s body.

‘No way, what happened yesterday continues… .’

Could it be that the Yoo Seol fandom, unable to accept the result, did something… .

“Well, that’s it… . Teacher, I’ve been checking the internet reaction since last night… . Well, yesterday at midnight, a video was uploaded to YouTube and it was… .”

“What on earth is posted on YouTube? .”

Lee Ji-woo was still speaking in gibberish, perhaps because he was embarrassed.

And soon… .

“Oh, that won’t work… . I can’t explain it in words… ! Yerin… ! Look at this… !”

As I nervously accepted the phone screen she handed me with trembling hands… .

“… … Huh?”

Inside YouTube on my phone screen, a situation unfolded that I had never expected.
