Chapter 220
Debut or Die
If I canât debut, Iâll get sick to death Episode 220
To be honest, I didnât have any great intentions about taking the GED.
It just seemed like there would be no harm in living at least in case of a high school diploma.
âThereâs no way that those who say theyâre middle school graduates will be quiet just because they passed the GED, even though they wore their hair like that in variety shows.â
So, I just solved the past workbook once and finished without being conscious of it as if I was updating the TOEIC when the time came.
I even prepared for the official exam after graduating from college, but I wondered if I wouldnât be able to pass the GED.
And as I thought, looking at the score of the previous exam, it was a pass.
âI just need to go quietly.â
It was the conclusion reached by covering the graded problem book.
Our activities ended yesterday, and we werenât at the level of taking a vacation yet, but we were relaxed enough that our official schedule came out every other day or two.
Even so, I will have to prepare for the next album again after taking a break for about two weeks, but it means that there will be no problem taking the GED the day after tomorrow.
I crossed my arms.
âLetâs not talk about it.â
There was nothing good about the news of my GED getting out of public opinion.
From useless sympathy public opinion to the worst case where a stalker becomes a nuisance to the exam hall, only unexpected situations increase.
Wouldnât it be just annoying in the yard where monitoring was already restricted?
âI donât have to tell the others.â
Itâs a long-awaited day off, so letâs all play on our own.
[Looks like these fucking KPOP bands!]
âWahhahaha!â
Immediately outside the door, the sound of Cha Yoo-jinâs laughter was loud.
I think Iâve been watching ãK-NOWã from the 4th episode, but thanks to that, I effectively trained for a mock test in the middle of the noise.
However, I donât know why Cha Yu-jin is laughing.
âThe atmosphere seems to have changed a bit since episode 4.â
Unlike the beginning of the episode, which felt like âno-response officials are playing tricks with KPOP hell campâ, from the 4th episode, the stories of the participants were illuminated and a consensus was formed.
[Since my parents passed away, Iâve never had the feeling that other people âcareâ about me.] [
I really need the prize money. For the sake of the family.]
And naturally, the editing of the participantsâ attitudes changed a bit to match the atmosphere.
Unlike before, when he was in pain at the camp and fell out like an extra villain in the KPOP bombing, he showed that he felt real worth while completing the stages one by one.
[I donât think Iâve ever pushed myself 100% like this.]
[Theyâre real. Factory training? Eat all the Xâs! This effort is real and they train like athletes train!]
And even forming a consensus with KPOP mentors.
For example, the family history of âPark Moon-daeâ was intertwined with the participantâs story and used a little.
Oh, I hear a sound outside the door, as if the scene mentioning me is passing by.
[After my parents passed away, I lived as a trash doing shit or drugs, but my mentor went to the audition and won.] [
This really means a lot to me.] It
was just a scene where I was just giving tips on how to find a camera during the performance, but it was well organized with an interview. got it right
Maybe itâs because he doesnât feel that heâs tired of it abroad yet, but he seems to be able to communicate well with the Shinpa code.
âIâll share some of the cast⦠Should I skip it?â
Come to think of it, I already heard the news that season 2 production was confirmed.
âI hope there will be a lot of influx into the next album.â
I hurriedly opened the door and walked out. Cha Yoo-jin turns her head at once and shouts with her eyes flashing.
âbrother! My brother is amazing, he is a wonderful person!â
âOh thank you.â
They are on the verge of shouting âlove yourselfâ at any moment. heâs really american
I went to the kitchen and poured water.
âHas everyone gone out?â
âI donât know! Iâm awake now!â
Itâs 2pm now, and Iâm really proud to say it.
Actually, during my promotional period, I lived sleeping three to four hours, so even if I slept for twelve hours for a few days, they would treat me like a lazy person.
âHyung, letâs play!â
âLater.â
âDo it now!â
âYou saw something. You should see all of that.â
âaha.â
Itâs over a term. Thereâs a half chance that youâll forget that you said youâd like to play a game while watching a variety show.
I sat down at the table and drank slowly. After a while, Saejin Bae came out of the next room.
âHave you been sleeping? I did too!â
âOh no, just⦠I read a book.â
âno way.â
Sejin Bae had a comfortable face for the first time in a while.
After being in the same room as the big guy, I sneaked out into the living room and saw him sitting in the corner, but he probably isnât in the room right now.
âCome to think of it, Seon Ah-hyun wasnât in the room either.â
Sejin Kim and Chungwoo Ryu are said to be so, but even Kim Raebin and Seon Ahyeon, who donât go out often, are inactive.
â⦠excuse me.â
âyes. Would you like some water?â
âuh? uhh⦠.â
I gave water to Bae Se-jin, who walked into the kitchen.
Bae Se-jin stood with a bewildered face holding a glass of water in his hand, then asked without even drinking.
â⦠What do you have to say?â
â⦠? Not really.â
I bet he wasnât expecting an offer to change rooms.
Iâm sorry, but the favor ends with water.
âUm, yes.â
Bae Se-jin seemed to be wriggling his eyebrows, but without saying anything, he quietly drank the water and went back to his room.
âWhat.â
There was a nuance that he had something to say, but given the atmosphere, it didnât seem serious, so I passed it on.
âIf Iâm scared, Iâll tell you on my own.â
Itâs the beginning of the inactive period, so letâs take a break too.
I shrugged and put the water cup in order. There was nothing to do, so I thought about solving the problem one more time.
âbrother! I saw them all!â
⦠And after a while, I played a few games with Cha Yoo-jin, who had not forgotten the game even after watching all the variety shows.
To be honest, I was bored because there was nothing to do, so it was worth doing even if it was a bit annoying.
[How about hovering? My friend said it was fun last time!]
âDo whatever you want.â
Looking back, I shouldnât have skipped it like this.
Two days later, in the morning, I received something I could never have imagined.
* * *
The morning of the GED exam.
I set the alarm to vibrate only to wake me up.
âIâm sure everyone is sleeping.â
I quietly got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash my face.
But when I came out of the bathroom, the bed opposite was empty.
â⦠⦠?â
Seon Ah-hyun, where did you go?
âDid I use the bathroom here and go down to the living room?â
It was when I put on my street clothes and cautiously opened the door, making the most probable guess.
The first thing I felt was⦠it smells A very savory smell of food.
And a booming voice was heard.
âPark Moon University came out!â
â⦠?!â
When I looked up, my roommates filled the bright living room and kitchen.
âwhatâs this.â
Just as I was about to think about what day it was today, Big Sejin approached me, clapping his palms.
âOh my gosh Mundaemundae~ They said they had an exam today!â
â⦠⦠!!â
Big Sejin was smiling. And looking around, the other guys are no different.
Knowing everything is an established fact.
âHow did you know?â
Big Sejin shook his head with exaggerated pity.
âMoondae, letâs not forget that we live as a group⦠The smartphone screen you see⦠The person next to you can see clearly.â
â⦠!!â
âNo, how? Donât you have a word to say to the members~ Arenât you too heartless?â
âItâs not a college entrance exam, so I donât have to say it⦠.â
âHeukheuk, such a pitiful word!â
âthatâs right! Iâm sorry!â
â⦠⦠.â
These guys are deliberately pretending to be sad. did you have fun
At least, the rational explanation came from Ryu Chung-woo.
âItâs a day when everyone has time and is at the dorm⦠I thought it would be nice to give a surprise send-off. haha.â
â⦠yes.â
This⦠A bit unexpected. I donât have to.
âConsidering my older brotherâs desire to take the exam quietly, we have decided to refrain from seeing him off to the exam site.â
Thatâs an accurate judgment.
But it didnât end here.
âSo⦠We made this all together.â
Seon Ah-hyun, who was standing at the back, quickly moved the ladle and set the bowl on the table.
Whatâs in it⦠It was chicken porridge.
â⦠⦠.â
âI want to make chicken soup! But everyone was against it!â
âSince itâs before the poetry exam, I thought it would be good to be familiar with it.â
âChicken soup is delicious⦠.â
The burnt-out chicken soup, which looks like it came from hell, automatically comes to mind.
Itâs almost unbelievable that it evolved into such a perfect chicken porridge through two processes.
âAhyeonie worked hard⦠Sejin, so Bae Sejin did a lot. Among us, the only ones who can cook are Rabin and Sejin.â
âIt seemed that Bae Se-jin was more knowledgeable than me!â
âNot quite like that.â
Bae Se-jin coughed. okay. Both Kim Rae-bin and you are stubborn.
âI managed to make it.â
I was at a loss for words while looking at the chicken porridge, which looked like it had been made with great care.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
a little⦠Iâm embarrassed, but Iâm sorry.
âHow is it, Moondae? Iâm so grateful⦠Are you speechless? I know everything, eat deliciously~â
Excellent. sorry disappears
âWhat did you do?â
âAyy, we all went to the grocery store together~ If you deliver it, youâll get caught. Where did the material fall out of thin air?â
So yesterday, all of a sudden, everyone was absent. I donât think I managed to find out and put it in the refrigerator.
âHow do you understand?â
I sighed, but finally smiled bitterly.
âYes, thank you.â
â⦠⦠!â
âThank you everyone.â
âThank you.â
âEat quickly!â
Anyway, I ended up eating chicken porridge while sitting among those smirking.
â⦠Do you have any taste?â
âyes. Itâs delicious.â
I thought I was pretending.
But I didnât know what else I would hear if I left it, so I emptied it clean.
⦠It was also something to be thankful for.
âWould you like another bowl?â
âitâs okay. Seriously, donât take pictures of you.â
âHuh? You donât want to share this important moment with Moondae fans? The members worked so hard on cooking~â
â⦠⦠.â
yes, do as you like
Itâs not like youâre hitting a notice right away just because youâve taken the GED, but itâs okay to post that Moondae Park ate breakfast later.
âDo you want me to pack the leftovers into a lunchbox?â
âUm, yes. thank you.â
Actually, I did pack something to eat for lunch yesterday⦠You can come back and eat it.
I left the inn at the right time, carrying a thermal container of chicken porridge and being seen off by the others.
âGet a perfect score~â
âEat something delicious for dinner!â
I felt odd.
âI brought a cheap lunchbox with me during the college entrance exam.â
I didnât expect to eat something like this while taking the GED with someone elseâs body.
â⦠Letâs have a good test.â
If I donât pass, I think itâll be really funny, so it wonât happen, but Iâll have to pay more attention.
After putting on a mask, I put on a ball cap and hit the road.
The test site was not far, and it was easy and quiet to arrive by taxi.
And, of course, no one was interested in me. If I had asked the company for security personnel, I would have been criticized for interfering with the exam.
âNot one or two dressed like me.â
There are so many different age groups, so the usual outfit like me is not buried.
Thinking that I had done well not to leak the news unnecessarily, I sat down at my desk and took out a pen.
It was a long test.
* * *
Ahn at a GED test site in Seoul.
As Park Moon-dae said, different people of various ages were sitting at their desks.
However, there was something that Park Moon-dae did not expect.
All in all, there were people who had a huge fan heart that could identify any idol just by looking at its skeleton.
âBar Park Moondae??â
Yes.
A student who was putting his bag on the seat behind the desk at Park Moon-dae froze when he saw a familiar back in front of him.
That bone, that hairline at the back of that neck.
All kinds of backseats of Park Moon-daeâs direct cams that he looked for countless times reflexively overlapped.
And an instinct-level realization hit my head!
âWait, itâs inactive now⦠And because Mundae dropped out of high school! Couldnât you come for the test??â
Thoughts rushed in like bombs. Of course, the ego of the test taker was also shouting that it was an absurd delusion.
â⦠⦠.â
However, after a while, the examinee, who got out of the vortex of all kinds of thoughts, thought hard.
âI have to be careful!â
The possibility of that is extremely slim, but it is rude even if Park Moon-dae is hit, and it is rude even if he is not.
Firmly resolved, the examinee cautiously sat down at her desk.
Thatâs how the thrilling GED test began.
