Chapter 272

When Woojoo told his brothers about the opening shoot location, they had similar reactions.

“Hyung, are you going overseas to film? Wow…”

“Airport?”

“Am I the only one who’s suspicious? Why the airport all of a sudden?”

Unlike the youngest who was envious, the other two looked doubtful.

Bijoo asked, “Did they tell you to bring your passport?”

“Yeah.”

“Did they tell you where you’re going?”

“Not at all. The preparation list just said ‘Don’t forget your passport’.”

“Huh, what’s going on…?”

Rihyuk took off his glasses after searching diligently on his tablet PC.

“Is it an overseas deployment? Last year, ‘Men Go’ went to Indonesia to help with the flood recovery.”

“Oh, right. There was that special episode.”

“What special episode?”

Rihyuk showed the screen to Junghyun who was curious.

The overseas deployment special of ‘Men Go’.

It was an episode where they built houses with the locals on an island in Indonesia that was ruined by a tsunami.

Bijoo looked worried.

“What if you end up going somewhere dangerous?”

“Me too. I don’t like it when you guys go to dangerous places.”

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

As they turned their heads, Rihyuk spoke confidently.

“I’m looking at the list of countries where they’ve deployed troops, and most of the dangerous places require preventive vaccinations. It usually takes a month for the antibodies to form, but they didn’t mention anything like that, right?”

“No. Nothing.”

“Then it won’t be a dangerous place.”

At his words, the other brothers cheered and praised their pirarucu.

Soon after, they started to guess what kind of military-related things they would do overseas, when something popped into Woojoo’s head.

“Ah…!”

They all turned their eyes.

“What’s wrong, Hyung?”

“I forgot about that.”

“…?”

“We’re not going to the army this time. The PD said we’re going to try a new challenge instead of the army.”

Woojoo was so absorbed in the passport thing that he completely forgot what he heard at the pre-meeting.

Rihyuk narrowed his eyes.

“When did you know that?”

“Since the pre-meeting…”

“The pre-meeting before the dart throwing?”

“Yeah. Of course before that.”

Suddenly, there was silence.

As he was trying to figure out what it was if not the army, the surroundings became quiet.

When he looked up, their expressions were not good.

“What’s wrong with you guys?”

“No…” Rihyuk trembled. “So you knew all along that we weren’t going to the army and you were teasing us?”

“Uh…”

Woojoo didn’t think about that. He was in a mental breakdown thinking about getting on the plane.

Jiho rolled his eyes.

“Wow. That’s really something. Do you guys want to go to the army? You were bullying us like that. And hiding the fact that you’re not going to the army…”

“I’m disappointed, Hyung.”

The brothers who found out the truth attacked him.

They called him a scoundrel, how could he do that, did he laugh when they were nervous, and so on. He got scolded for a long time.

Come on. Was this something to be scolded for?

“Hey, guys.”

“What?”

“Why?”

They looked at Woojoo with displeased eyes. He gave them an apologetic smile.

“I’m sorry.”

“Do you think that’s enough?”

“I’ll buy you meat today. How about the beef place over there?”

After a moment of silence.

The guys who were looking at each other gave him a gentle smile.

“Yes. That’s the right attitude.”

“…Well, I’m still a bit upset, but I’ll accept it.”

“I feel like your words healed my heart.”

Woojoo was able to appease them with a quick apology and a promise of meat.

Only Junghyun looked slightly gloomy, saying ‘Aren’t we going to the army…?’, but fortunately, the others brightened up quickly.

“But it’s really good news!”

Bijoo opened his eyes wide and was happy.

“I haven’t been sleeping well lately. I was worried and troubled because you said you were going to the army again, but I’m really glad.”

“Me too. I don’t want to hear you talk about the army again when you come back.”

“Same here. No matter how annoying you are, I don’t like the idea of you crawling around in the army.”

They didn’t say it, but they seemed to be worried about ‘Men Go’ (a reality show about the army).

The Soufflés would be happy to know this.

They weren’t going to the army this time.

The most upset people after the confirmation of my appearance on ‘Men Go’ were the Soufflés.

Woojoo didn’t notice it before he left, when they were laughing at the flower wreath messages, but the atmosphere changed 180 degrees when the appearance was confirmed.

There were comments asking how he would do if he got hurt, and asking about the well-being of the ‘Men Go’ PD and the representative at night.

There were also many comments wondering what they would do if he got injured like the Dolympics (a sports variety show).

They had to come back safely.

Woojoo nodded his head and turned his eyes back to his siblings.

“By the way, where are we going if it’s not the army?”

They all thought about Woojoo’s question.

“Doctors Without Borders? They do a lot of good things there.”

“Maybe a foreign volunteer organization? Or environmental protection? I saw a documentary at school a while ago, and they tied themselves to a ship’s mast.”

“How about the Antarctic King Sejong Science Station? There are also people who contribute to the country with scientific research there.”

Where did they want to send them?

They all mentioned places that were either dangerous or famous for extreme situations, so Woojoo blinked his eyes for a moment.

He ate with his siblings for a while, wondering where they were going, but he couldn’t find the answer.

He really didn’t know.

What were they trying to do this time?

“But hey, at least it’s not the army.”

Woojoo thought, what did it matter, and they all laughed.

First floor of the dorm apartment.

They said goodbye in front of the car that stopped at the flower bed.

“I’m going…”

“I’ll be back, guys.”

As Junghyun and Woojoo, dressed in military uniforms, waved their hands, they all waved back with sad faces.

“Guys…”

“Hyung…”

They got in the car, but then they turned back and hugged each other, crying. The manager Hyungs laughed.

“We’ll miss you so much.”

“So will we.”

“Then I’ll go…”

“Come back safely…”

As Rihyuk bowed his head under the gaze of the apartment residents, Bijoo handed Woojoo an old mp3 player.

“What’s this?”

“I put some soothing songs for you to listen to on your way to the airport.”

“Thank you.”

They seemed to be worried about him taking the plane. The other two also looked a bit anxious.

“Anyone would think you’re really going to the army, man.”

“…”

“I’ll have fun filming and come back.”

Woojoo smiled at his siblings who looked like meerkats.

They got in the car, opened the window, and stuck out his head with Junghyun, waving their hands hard.

As the car started and they quickly moved away from each other.

“Guys!”

“Guys, I’ll be back… oh?”

Whoosh.

The beret that Junghyun was wearing flew off and fell to the ground.

“…”

Their eyes met, and Jiho started laughing.

“Dowon Hyung.”

“Yeah?”

“Can you stop the car for a moment…?”

Dowon Hyung parked the car.

Rihyuk, who had been sighing deeply, picked up his beret and ran to the car to hand it over.

Then they waved at each other until they became dots in the distance.

After saying goodbye, Woojoo leaned back on the car seat for a moment and checked his preparations one by one.

“What’s that, Hyung?”

“It’s a talisman.”

Junghyun looked curious as he saw the talisman in his hand.

Their Mrs. Deoksoon said it was a powerful talisman written by a monk. Woojoo doubted its effectiveness, but…

Well, it was the thought that counted.

He also plugged in the earphones of the mp3 player that Bijoo gave him.

The old mp3 screen flashed and automatically switched to the folder named ‘Woojoo Hyung’s army’.

As Woojoo closed his eyes to enjoy the song.

♪ Leave your home and take the train~

He turned it off right away.

“Ahhhh…!”

He was startled by the song that triggered his trauma and took off his earphones.

He explained the situation to the managers who turned their heads and the two veterans burst into laughter.

Woojoo didn’t know the exact details, but it was obvious that Bijoo had fallen for the fake information on the blog, such as ‘songs that veterans like’.

Minki Hyung, who had been laughing for a while, turned on the morning radio.

Woojoo carefully put away Bijoo’s mp3 player and picked up his smartphone to start searching.

-TBC Men Go, “This week’s guest is an idol”

-PD Sagan “A new special that you’ve never experienced before, you’ll be surprised”

-The crisis of ‘Men Go’, can they stop the ‘ratings decline’?

There was a lot of talk about whether ‘Men Go’, which was in a downward trend in ratings, could bounce back with this special.

Woojoo could feel that vibe from the production team.

They seemed to want to turn the situation around with this special.

He could feel how much effort they put into this special when they had pre-meetings or mid-shootings.

That was why he prepared thoroughly.

He was matching the faces of the cast with the precautions in his head and imagining various situations.

“I always feel this way,” Junghyun said as he rummaged through the snacks. “Hyung, you seem to work hard on everything you do.”

“Yeah?”

“Yes, you study when you eat, and you study when you don’t eat.”

Woojoo laughed at the line that sounded like a rhyme.

“I have to do well. It’s not someone else’s job, it’s ours.”

“That’s right.” He said with a determined look, “This time, I have to work really hard too. I’m ready to have my bones slip.”

“What’s going on? Our Kim Junghyun.”

“It’s just you and me today, Hyung. I’m not very funny.”

What are you talking about? You’re the funniest.

“If you want to do as well as the other kids.”

“Share, Junghyun. Share.”

“Yes, so I think I have to do better than usual. I made up my mind when I had breakfast.”

“Don’t worry too much. You’ll be fine as long as you do what you normally do.”

He was said to be an S-class trainee when he received basic training, but Woojoo didn’t know the details. He seemed to do well.

Woojoo said to him, who kept saying ‘I have to do well’, “Then let’s look at this together. It’s the precautions for the cast members who are coming today.”

“Okay, sure.”

“First of all, this person had a controversy over betting on golf, so don’t talk about golf in front of him…”

As Woojoo explained and he nodded, the scenery of Yeongjongdo began to appear faintly from afar.

Incheon Airport, 3rd floor, departure hall.

As they got off at the elevator, the promised place, the production crew who had been waiting for them followed them.

“It’s chilly in the morning, thank you for your hard work. Director.”

Woojoo asked the cameraman who smiled at him, “I’m nervous because we’re going abroad. There’s a lot to prepare. By the way, did they collect your passports, staff?”

“…?”

The cameraman paused for a moment and then nodded his head belatedly.

Woojoo smiled slyly at his reaction.

As the crosswalk signal changed, they also said goodbye to the managers. The two managers waved their hands as if to wish them a safe trip.

Inside the 10th gate, the promised place, there were seven men in military uniforms.

“Wow! You’re here! You made it!”

“New Black is here!”

Joon and Junghyun bowed with a smile.

“Hello, seniors! We are New Black, Woojoo!”

“And Junghyun!”

They also greeted Hanjo, who had arrived first, with their eyes. He expressed his joy with his whole body.

He must have had a hard time being the guest alone.

“Here, here, stand with us.”

“Okay.”

They laughed at his intense look of relief.

The cast of Men on a Mission divided into three groups on each side and surrounded them in the middle.

They looked around for a while.

It was early in the morning, but the airport was full of noisy crowds.

Travelers, business people, students, athletes, foreigners, etc. All kinds of people were busy passing by.

Some people stopped in the middle.

“Hey, what’s that? Filming?”

“They’re filming a show! Oh! That’s Men on a Mission.”

“Men Go?”

Some of them recognized Woojoo and Junghyun.

“Hey, hey! They’re New Black, New Black.”

“Wow, they’re all handsome…”

“Is that guy standing there a member too? He looks so calm.”

Hanjo, who had lost his group, smiled sadly.

The regular cast members also waved to the people.

“Hello, everyone!”

“Is this your first time seeing celebrities?”

They chatted with the people around them with a friendly tone, but someone soon tackled them.

“Ugh, how embarrassing. Stop it. We’re not here to see you, we’re here to see the idols.”

Park Hobeom made a face of shame.

He had a sharp look and lean muscle, and he was playing the role of an A-class soldier character among the Sagan members.

Maybe he was like Rihyuk, who was good at sports.

The Sagan members pretended not to hear him, and they felt a sense of rivalry.

“Should we wave our hands too?”

“Yes, sure!”

“Don’t be so picky like Hobeom. We should ride on their popularity too!”

It was a natural flow like a gag.

As they had been working together for a long time, they each had their own positions.

Here was the attack, here was the defense, here was the gag.

They quickly grasped the atmosphere of the scene and we also joined in creating the situation.

“Thank you. Our members are big fans of Men on a Mission. The last episode with the dolphins and the navy was very popular.”

Hanjo reacted to the cast members.

“We actually prepared a few things to show to the viewers.”

Woojoo did the promotion of New Black and Street Boys’ albums.

“Give me a beat.”

Junghyun took care of the personal skills and the unusual things.

They didn’t divide the roles beforehand, but they roughly gave and took cues and finished introducing themselves in front of the spectators.

The man with a round face and glasses, Lee Pilseung, threw the closing remark with a smile.

“These guys, they have so much charm.”

“Thank you.”

“Can we expect you to show your charm as guests today?”

“Yes! We’ll do our best!”

Lee Pilseung, who had a gentle older brother image, turned his eyes to the production team with a smile.

“Our PD Do.”

“Yes.”

“Where are we going this time? You said it’s not the army. But you told us to bring our passports, so we came prepared.”

PD Do Joongi, who was standing between the cameras, smiled.

“You’ll find out when you get there.”

The cast members got up together.

“Where are we going that you won’t tell us? It’s not some weird overseas deployment, is it?”

“Exactly. Where are we going?”

“Are we going overseas?”

The cast members gave him a look of distrust, and PD Do smiled silently.

It was an expression that seemed to challenge them to guess.

While they were all wondering whether they were going overseas or not, Lee Pilseung took care of Woojoo.

“Where do you think we’re going today, Woojoo?”

“I don’t know where we’re going, but… somewhere abroad that could be a good experience! I want to go overseas at least once!”

As Woojoo said that with a fist pump, Hanjo and Junghyun joined in.

“We want to go overseas too! Director!”

“We want to go yo.”

They cheered up the atmosphere, and the cast members agreed with them.

“Look at them. They all want to go overseas too! PD Do, let’s go somewhere nice for our guests.”

“Around the World With Dice is going to Hawaii this time. Are we going to lose to them?”

“Well, we have some conscience as a ratings hit, so let’s compromise with Bali. Bali or Cebu at least.”

They reacted enthusiastically in the midst of that.

But Woojoo knew they weren’t going overseas.

Usually, when they went for overseas filming, the staff collected their passports. But when Woojoo asked the camera director earlier, he hesitated for three seconds.

That was the evidence that they didn’t collect them.

The regular cast members were also people who lived by their instincts, so they probably sensed something from the production team’s vibe.

When they were hyping up the mood for the variety show, PD Do opened his lips.

“Unfortunately, we’re not going overseas.”

“Ahhh…!”

He said to the screaming people, “Let me give you a hint. It’s a place related to security work at the airport.”

“Security work?”

“We told you to bring your passports in case something comes up in the middle.”

What kind of security work was there at the airport?

Everyone had a ‘?’ expression on their faces and thought of various words in their heads. Then, the PD clapped his hands.

“Well, then, shall we move first?”

“Move…?”

“Yes, the place we’re going to is nearby. You just need to get on the bus that’s waiting outside.”

When everyone turned their heads, they saw a bus waiting at the outside platform.

Someone muttered, “Where the hell are they taking us?”

There was tension in the bus.

The vehicle that left the airport was gradually moving into the island.

They passed the golf course, the coastal road where the sea was visible, and went deeper into Yeongjong Island.

Hanjo swallowed his saliva and asked, “Where are we going?”

“I wonder.”

“We have no idea either…”

They had no way to find information since they turned in their phones before boarding the car.

“What’s on Yeongjong Island?”

“What else is there besides the airport? Sohyung, aren’t you from Incheon?”

“Just because I’m from Incheon doesn’t mean I know the geography of Yeongjong Island.”

“Are we going to take a boat? Maybe we have to go overseas and that’s why they told us to bring our passports.”

“You heard it earlier. It’s related to the airport. And if we take a boat from here to go overseas, we won’t have enough time to film.”

There was laughter at someone’s joke that they would have to take a plane back as soon as they arrived overseas.

Junghyun asked, “But maybe it’s not a hard job, right?”

Everyone said ‘no’ with a scoff at that.

Yoon Jongwoo, a timid-looking man who was in charge of anxiety and worry in the show, grumbled, “That’s because you don’t know our production team…”

“We’ve never had an easy time. PD Do always avoids the shortcuts and sees them later.”

“But what kind of security work is related to the airport? Are we going to handle drug-sniffing dogs or something?”

“I remember the military dog training unit. That was tough.”

“Let’s just relax. We.” Min Taewon, a bald man with a Buddha-like face, smiled gently. “It doesn’t matter where we go, as long as we do our best. Everything depends on how we feel.”

“There he goes again. That guy.”

“You’re the problem. You are.”

“Heh, we’ll see about that.”

He was a laid-back character who was always treated as a burden in the show.

As they were talking like that.

Park Hobeom’s sharp gaze turned to Woojoo.

“Where do you think we’re going today, Woojoo?”

Woojoo hesitated and said, “Don’t you think there’s a reason why they filmed the opening scene at the airport? Maybe we have to come back here later and do something.”

“That’s possible.”

“Going somewhere else means we’ll get some special training there and then come back to the airport for practice…”

Woojoo crossed out the choices one by one.

“First of all, excluding the military, most of the jobs related to airport security are inside, right? Like customs. Or the police.”

“Yeah. I once went to the police station inside the airport to find a lost item.”

“By the way, we’re almost there, aren’t we?”

The bus that had been speeding along slowed down as it approached the destination.

Woojoo continued to talk in front of the camera, while the others listened to my story.

“It seems like it’s not a job that requires us to directly approach the citizens, but rather something that might be needed in some special situation nearby… Oh.”

And then something flashed through his mind.

It seemed like everyone else had the same thought.

“Ah, I think I know what it is.”

“No way?”

“It can’t be…”

They all denied the reality with warm smiles.

“There’s no way.”

“That’s right. It can’t be there.”

“Hahaha. What if it’s there?”

As they thought about it, they saw a sign that said ‘Marine Police’ along with a helicopter hangar in front of them.

“…….”

“…….”

And as they passed by, the buildings started to appear.

“Ah…”

“Oh, please.”

“Where’s the PD? That car in front? We have to ram into it now…!”

They heard the sound of everyone’s mental breakdown in real time. Finally, the vehicle stopped in front of some entrance.

A spacious playground.

The buildings surrounding it.

Various models and temporary buildings that looked like training grounds came into view.

“…….”

“…….”

Everyone was speechless and looked at the biggest building among them.

A plain brick building.

On top of it, the words ‘Incheon Police Special Forces’ glittered in the morning sun as if to say ‘welcome’.
