Chapter 217 Winter Sea

“Wow, it’s warmer than I thought.”

As we got off the airport and moved to get a rental car, everyone was bewildered by the weather that didn’t feel like midwinter and took off their outerwear.

Only Hwijin seemed to have known this from the start and wore a thin long-sleeved cardigan.

“Ah, the coat is too hot, right?”

Yu-geon, who had worn a coat for early winter to prepare for the warm weather, eventually took off his coat and wrapped it around one arm as he walked.

“Wow, I’m glad I packed the padding.”

Thanks to the warning that we should bring a padding to avoid freezing to death in Hokkaido, everyone had a lot of trouble deciding whether to take out a coat or a jumper or a padding before departure.

I roughly guessed the winter weather in Okinawa and brought a thin denim jacket, and the rest of the members agreed to pack a padding after debating between a padding or a coat.

‘This takes up too much space.’

When Yi-jun tried to take it out in the middle, Kyunghwa quickly stopped him. It was a wise choice.

“I survived because hyung told me to pack a padding.”

When Yi-jun playfully poked Kyunghwa, Kyunghwa collapsed on the sidewalk like a scene from a children’s animation and screamed.

“Aaah-!”

“Eek!”

Yi-jun, who had touched Kyunghwa, also startled and made a surprised sound.

“Ah, are you okay, Kyunghwa hyung?”

Seon-woo turned around in surprise and looked at Kyunghwa, and not only Yu-geon but also Naru’s eyes were drawn to Kyunghwa.

“Ah, um. I’m fine. I was just thinking about something else for a moment.”

Kyunghwa got up and dusted off his knees, but he didn’t look like a fine person at all.

“Wow, Kyunghwa hyung, that was really like a slapstick just now.”

Yu-geon and Yi-jun teased Kyunghwa like Dumb and Dumber and reenacted the dynamic pose from before, and fortunately the atmosphere was lightened with a gag.

‘That’s definitely not sane.’

I didn’t expect to worry about Kyunghwa even in a foreign country. I approached Kyunghwa closely and whispered.

“Are you really hurt somewhere?”

Then Kyunghwa looked at me in surprise and shook his head.

“No? I’m totally fine.”

It meant ‘I have a problem right now. I won’t tell you, but be prepared.’

I’m going crazy. I sincerely hoped that he wouldn’t cause a big accident and moved to the hotel first.

“Hello, I’m Naru, the representative guide for today! Please give me some response, or I’ll be embarrassed~. Wow~.”

As soon as we got off the hotel, the tour started and the representative guide, who had been decided in advance, stood in front with a guide flag and a guide microphone.

He looked worried because his expression wasn’t as bright as before on the plane. But he seemed to know clearly what he had to do in front of the camera and smiled brightly.

‘When this is released... Anyway, I’ll get criticized. He was at the center of a big controversy and then disappeared and resumed his activities.’

As I told Naru. The company would sue for artist protection against the excessive criticism. And the rest of the biased views were something that Naru himself had to overcome.

“Wow~. Your voice is too small~. Show me some love for the youngest!”

Naru tried to proceed desperately, and I felt sorry for him, so I clapped quietly.

“Wow~.”

Yu-geon and Yi-jun led the response, and Naru pulled out something like a magic wand that I didn’t know where he had prepared.

At the sound of Y app, Yi-jun, who was lying on the bed like a caterpillar, got up.

“Do you do Y app?”

The rumor is so twisted. I shook my head and answered.

“No, I don’t know if I can do it.”

“No, you’re the CEO, aren’t you?”

“No, I mean, I’m not doing this alone, and if I spoil it, the content team will have trouble.”

“Can’t you talk without saying ‘no’ twice?”

“I’m not that bad.”

Yu-geon’s expression was very mean as he quickly backed away from the argument.

“Well, you don’t have to say where you went for filming, just show what you ordered and eat and turn it off.”

This guy is getting more and more rebellious. I didn’t want to be a nagging older brother, even though we were only a year apart.

“Then let’s do it. There’s no harm in doing it.”

I gladly turned on the live app on my phone.

“No, you have to give me some time to prepare!”

Yu-geon raised his voice as if he didn’t expect me to turn it on so suddenly. Seong-won, who had been lying down like a snail and using his phone with noise-canceling earphones on, was startled by the sudden Y app broadcast alert and got up.

[Y Live broadcast has started.]

“What, you turned on Y app?”

The screen showed the hotel room with Seong-won’s languid voice.

Meanwhile, Yu-geon’s personal fans, who had been dying of thirst wondering if this guy was still alive after his disappearance, were turned upside down by the news of Yu-geon’s transfer.

They knew from before that he had a good relationship with the leader of another group, not just business. But now he’s going into a label that’s only been around for three months?

Yu-geon was one of the few debut members who escaped the contract incident, and the fans also didn’t doubt that fact, so they expected that he would have many places to go with better conditions.

‘Would he have been cursed like that on the broadcast if he wrote the contract?’

Yu-geon’s personal fandom was a different group from the general affection for idols, as they called their favorite not a god but ‘that guy’.

They basically didn’t like the Floss members. They looked like an exception to the online etiquette of all-fan cosplay that they should show.

‘I’m not a malicious personal fan, but they neglected their duties as idols because they didn’t catch my interest.’

And there were many people who still couldn’t get out of the grudge from the My Idol days.

Why do I have to embrace the bastards who made my kid a villain and shot him up with nicknames like Yutoto (Yu-geon X again), and the master of manipulation in real-time popular posts?

They had to do a lot of purification work on Entertainment Talk Talk to overturn the master of manipulation in the best possible direction, and it was enough to grind their teeth.

It was possible to purify him because he debuted. If they calculated the hate comments that Yu-geon had swept up during the My Idol broadcast, Yu-geon would have been immortal and still left.

Thanks to me, I made this guy debut and made the 9th place with the cohesion of these bad fans, so I guess it was a good thing in the end.

The fandom was enjoying their happy personal fangirling within the limits of not hating too much, since things had worked out well anyway. But another thorny path unfolded before them.

[Enter Today] Former Floss members Shim Naru, Lee Hwijin, and Kang Yu-geon join forces with Climax.

Get out of WePlanet! Moving labels is not a demotion, it’s changing agencies!

I was already pissed off that the contract was written upside down by some other guys and the group activities were over, but why with Shim Naru again?

Shim Naru was so annoying, always trying to stick with me like a cicada on a pine tree.

Lee Hwijin was better. Why with Shim Naru? Don’t you have any learning ability after getting beaten by Oh Chanhyung?

As the worries that were too harsh for my bias poured out, a breaking news came up on the protected account.

[- Hey, crazy, Yu-geon is doing Y-app.]
