Debut or Die - Chapter 293
If you can’t debut, you’ll get sick to death Episode 293
A group whose group name hasn’t been decided yet –< Azusa > Season 5 The debut group’s recent schedule has been quite tight.
This is because while preparing for his debut, he was digesting the schedule of the winner of the audition program, such as advertising and interviewing.
Although the topicality was not comparable to Testa’s status in the previous male season, it was still enough to excite the hearts of the parties involved.
And there were members who felt a sense of victory for other reasons.
‘Can’t you even contact me? X is funny.’
Chae Seo-dam checked the contact information on his smartphone as long as there was no response.
[Mundae senior]
It was a number I found out by coaxing the manager who was in charge of Testa before. It was an easy thing to say ‘brother brother’ and bring a nerdy guy up.
‘Even if I catch Gao at that level, my nature is like that.’
Chae Seo-dam assumed that Park Moon-dae would be of a similar category.
It was to the point of shame to see a maladjusted seed who couldn’t even speak when he was in school and come out so hard that he became a popular idol.
‘What about the lucky bastard?’
Hearing that, he seemed to be taking care of him very much, but in the end, there was nothing more than pretending to be there.
Even now, Chae Seo-dam secretly mentions Park Moon-dae in every interview or filming, but doesn’t he have any reaction?
It was obviously terrifying.
‘I thought I was going to do it because I was mad, but look at how I couldn’t do it because I was scared.’
Then, in my head, it was obvious that I was beautifying myself as a cartoon character. Aren’t there one or two lesser guys in every class?
‘The really lucky thing is where I’m introducing myself.’
It’s just funny how a guy who succeeds after being good at jealousy and neck can attack a senior ranker like himself who has lived so fiercely.
Chae Seo-dam sent a direct respect to himself, who had cleverly handled the situation by all means while practicing breaking his feet.
I slipped for a while, but that’s it.
‘I don’t leave it like that anymore.’
As it is, after benefiting from its recognition and image to the limit using Park Moon-dae, more thrilling plans remained.
The moment he encounters Park Moon-dae again, he can’t stand it and induces him to explode himself. It was his specialty to elicit reactions from others.
‘It would be better if I told the company about it.’
If the company tried to cover it, that was a good situation. Then, he gathers them well and uses them again as his weakness.
‘In any case, I can use it as proof that I was bullied and get out of here.’
In this way, even the reversal of the image killed two birds with one stone.
‘An idol who continues to harass juniors under the pretext of an already deleted recording!’
“ah.”
Chae Seo-dam was satisfied because the thought of the situation being overturned was plausible.
And he thought for a while about another party involved in the recording, which he hadn’t thought of because he was excited at the time.
Of course, now he was rationalizing that it was all within his calculations.
There was no way that person would show any gesture.
‘Is that all?’
Chae Seo-dam was sure that since there was no damage to himself, Moon-dae Park would be happy to be in trouble. Haha, hoho, isn’t it a competitor?
As soon as I recognized him, he was a successful idol as soon as he debuted, so I fully expected how childish his personality would be.
‘Rather, I might contact me to make a deal.’
He himself had been polite enough in a low-key manner in that situation, so there was nothing to be offended about.
Perhaps Park Moon-dae’s weakness was waiting for it to explode.
“Um~”
Chae Seo-dam cleared away the nervousness of the past few days, thinking about the logic that naturally follows like rolling a snowball.
‘It’s bold and well-made.’
The arrogance that had constantly crippled him in life grew again.
And this optimism was shattered a few days later when I met someone in the office hallway.
His classmate Sun Ah-hyun, who has now become a senior.
“Hello, senior!”
“hello… !”
Unlike when she was in school, Seon Ah-hyun, who was walking from the other side, was looking at her with her head stiffly raised. To think that a guy like that should be treated as a senior because of his seniority.
The moment I got it, I felt bad.
‘If < Azusa > didn’t work out luckily, I wouldn’t have had a social life.’
It always made me feel the bitter taste of absurdity when such a person made a claim as if he was more successful than himself.
But what are you going to do?”
Isn’t there nothing I can do other than campaigning as a senior? If you care about the social position you barely made.
And the extent of Seon Ah-hyun’s campaign for Chae Seo-dam… To be honest, it wasn’t even ticklish.
“I have something to say to Mr. Seodam, would it be okay for a moment?”
“Oh yes! Seodam hyung!”
It was a bit embarrassing to see him not stuttering so much, but he internally snorted at Seon Ah-hyun’s behavior of calling out to him.
The tape recorder is still running.
‘There will be one more weakness.’
However, as soon as Chae Seo-dam enters the conference room in the corner, she is hit by a fastball from Seon Ah-hyun.
“I’m thinking a lot… . Should I tell the truth that you bullied me?”
“… … !”
what do you say?
At the moment of Chae Seo-dam, I looked back to see if this was real.
However, Sun Ah-hyun’s words did not end.
“Seodam-ah, I have a recording.”
“… … !”
“Because you’re so scared… In case I was weird, I recorded it to listen to it again and understand it… for a while.”
“… … .”
“And it’s still there.”
Chae Seo-dam felt a cold sensation run down her spine.
It was a survival instinct felt in the face of a crisis.
‘Oh no.’
Chae Seo-dam barely denied the reality. And it was rationalized and mistaken for being rational.
Similar to what has been going on so far, but a little stronger.
‘You’re saying that even if I say that, I won’t be able to explode?’
Wouldn’t it hurt you if you exploded it? He’s an idol who’s doing well right now.
When I was barely in school, I was in a bad mood and it’s hard to blame myself for school violence because I messed up my practical skills. At least he thought so.
‘And what did you record?’
In his opinion, no matter how he judged himself, he had never been verbally abusive or beaten to the point of being caught.
That’s just to scare you.
‘but… .’
But just in case… yes, just in case
After finishing the rationalization, Chae Seo-dam opened his mouth with a regretful tone.
“Ah Hyun-ah… Do you hate me that much?”
“… … .”
“There was some friction when we were in school, but… It’s not like this, by any chance, saying that I was pushed behind by me… going to be? It’s so embarrassing.”
It would be a mistake if you said it while expecting an embarrassing painting with excuses.
“Because I have a bad image, I wonder if it’s because I think it’s fun, so I feel embarrassed… .”
He is conscious of his tape recorder and passionate about making evidence… .
“Seo Dam.”
However, Seon Ah-hyun did not even flinch.
“It doesn’t work like that anymore.”
“… !!”
“I really want to make a public announcement. beforehand… I thought it would be my last theorem, so I came to inform you.”
“… … .”
“Then I’ll go in.”
Seon Ah-hyun lowered her head slightly and left the meeting room first with a firm expression.
And Chae Seo-dam’s head went blank.
* * *
‘There’s no way it will explode.’
Chae Seo-dam lay on the bed in the dorm and repeated.
It must have been a word that he said to try to intimidate him just because it sounded funny in his position.
‘I’ve seen that stupid bastard fucking somewhere.’
… However, on the other hand, I keep imagining what kind of impact it would have if Seon Ah-hyun released the recording.
Eventually, as time goes by, you start to think like this.
‘… Should I apologize now?’
No, an apology is an acknowledgment! He could never apologize… . Haven’t you done anything wrong enough to apologize in the first place?
I was fed up with being treated as if I had become a huge victim for encouraging the weaker mentality to collapse alone.
“X feet… .”
Everything was uncertain as to what would happen. However, the moment you make a gesture, it becomes numb.
‘Are you ignoring me?’
But it was embarrassing. Thoughts endlessly return to the origin… .
When those anxious, insanely long days have passed.
Finally, a change has occurred.
“Seo Dam-ah… The head of management at the company wants to see you.”
“… … yes.”
X feet! X feet!
Chae Seo-dam felt it. Looking at the manager’s expression, it doesn’t seem like a good thing, but then
this bastard, Seon Ah-hyun, was doing something.
“… !”
yes!
At that moment, an amazing idea passed through Chae Seo-dam’s head.
If Seon Ah-hyeon first catches the evidence that Moon-dae Park was harassing him, wouldn’t he be able to make a deal with the company even if Seon Ah-hyeon exposes it?
As the manager guided him to the management office at the end of the hallway, he kept calculating in his head.
‘If you text me now and scratch it… .’
Click.
However, when the door to the meeting room for consultation in the management room was opened after checking whether or not the tape recorder was in possession.
“Here.”
Sitting there… It was a person who was completely unexpected.
Moondae Park.
“… !”
What kind of situation is this?
Park Moon-dae, who was sitting in the seat where the head of the department should be, thoughtlessly glanced at Chae Seo-dam and then chinned.
“Sit.”
“… … .”
“Ah, I am the assistant manager.”
Took.
Moondae Park muttered nonsense calmly and glanced at the door being closed by the manager.
And peek laughed.
“Let’s talk.”
… Only then did Chae Seo-dam look down on Park Moon-dae and recall the doubts he had forgotten.
Why did he try to spy on Park Moon-dae?
revenge.
– Lucky cub.
After Park Moon-dae’s remarks, he wondered if all the incidents and revelations that had happened to him were probably Park Moon-dae’s actions… doubt.
* * *
I looked up and checked the guy who had come through the door.
Chae Seo-dam has a face as if he has seen some kind of ghost.
‘That’s good.’
The more confused the mind, the easier it was to eat. The already easy guy will be easier.
I said to the guy who was still standing.
“Are you not going to sit down?”
“… … .”
“It doesn’t matter… Then we just talk.”
I spoke monotonously.
“There was a report about school violence… .”
“Is it all yours?”
“What.”
“… … .”
But instead of answering, this bastard changed his expression as if he had realized something.
And then he pulls out a chair and sits there.
‘oh.’
The guy said, rolling his eyes.
“I think you’re mistaken… I don’t care if something explodes and I stop doing this, senior. I’ve already cursed enough… It’s not like there’s only one road, right?”
“… … .”
“okay. I’m just going to quit being an idol, so I’m going to talk about everything and leave. uh? The senior group all worked together and even the company pressured people to create rumors.”
Well, that’s a typical reaction.
‘We’re cornered, so let’s all die together. I will kill myself’.
‘In case of emergency, I can go back to my major industry. This is it.’
You might have guessed this bastard also has a head, but from Testa’s point of view, it’s okay to lose either side of the case, whether it’s Seonahyeon.
‘That’s why I was always careful to avoid that.’
So, he must have thought that the threats would go away and he would enter the negotiating phase.
“I see.”
I’m sorry but it’s useless.
No negotiations with you.
“But if you quit being an idol, are you thinking of going abroad?”
“What are you saying… … .”
“I think it will be difficult to live in Korea right away.”
I leaned my chin and spoke without even looking at Seodam.
“I’m going to somehow expose the facts and make gossip to the point that you can’t have a social life in Korea anymore.”
“… … !”
“I don’t care either. Whether it explodes or not. That doesn’t mean Testa is ruined.”
I shrugged.
“Since you started talking bullshit like a recording, the conversation between the officials has ended, you idiot.”
How to put such a bastard into a state of panic where there is no corner to trust.
It’s true bluffing.
