Save a Failed Idol's Life-Chapter 81:

It was not something I could share with anyone else

The phone went silent after a long sigh. Just from the few keywords I heard, I felt a bad premonition creeping up on me.

I had always thought that Kyunghwas family situation was a bit complicated, since he showed an excessive sense of responsibility that did not match his age.

But what I expected was that he had a lot of younger siblings and his parents were both working, so they did not get much care.

I did not expect that he would spend the money I sent him for his hospital bills on gambling, and that the hospital would call me about it.

I rushed up the stairs.

As soon as I opened the door lock and entered, I saw Kyunghwas stiff face in the living room.

He must have opened the door and came out.

I handed him the bag with the ice cream without showing any emotion.

Here. I got this for you.

Ah, thanks.

He took the ice cream and went to the kitchen to find a spoon.

Anyone want some ice cream?

Oh. Ill have some.

Yi-jun came out of the bathroom after washing his hands and casually took a seat on the sofa.

Lets eat and clean up quickly before Seon-woo comes out.

Thanks to my secret plan, a third of the ice cream disappeared in no time and was sealed in the freezer, away from Seon-woos eyes.

The holiday did not feel as refreshing as it should have, but I decided to act as if I did not hear anything.

It was not a problem that I could intervene in anyway, and he probably had his own reasons He might not want to reveal his scars.

Lets pretend I didnt hear that. I nodded silently to myself.

The aftermath of the Star Discovery broadcast was still going on when the shooting day for Boys in Crisis came.

They said that once the official activities started, the staff would take care of the country house, and they would deal with the ups and downs that would happen along the way.

Whats the point I have to do well to keep going. If I make a comeback and no one cares and no one calls me

Ugh. I shuddered and shook my head.

[Time left until the test ends (contract expires): 27 days]

The system showed me the remaining time again, as if to warn me.

The end of September meant that there was less than a month left until the comeback. I had to get my act together. I slapped my cheeks and got out of the van.

Alright, today were going to help out the nearby farms with their harvest and play games with the vegetables, meat, and fruits we get.

The staff explained the recreation of the day from behind the camera. The game was not that complicated and it was more of a physical activity than a mental one.

I was glad to get some fresh air after being stuck in the practice room all week, practicing the choreography.

Lets think positively. The power of positivity!

I joined the members who were strangely more excited than usual and we split into groups of two or three to help out.

When evening came, Kyunghwa and Yi-juns team brought back apples and shine muscats. Seon-woo, Seong-won and I got hanwoo and marinated ribs.

Whats a shine muscat?

I dont know, they said they planted a lot and there was a lot left.

Sure enough. It was a fruit that even went on the ancestral rites table these days. It was so sweet that it would taste good even with yogurt, without adding any sugar

It seemed like I had to eat it as a dessert.

Lets go pick some lettuce from the field.

Kyunghwa checked the meat and headed to the field with sokuri on his side. He was awkward at first, wondering how to pick it. Now he was a pro farmer.

While Kyunghwa went to get the lettuce, the staff brought a board with the rules written on it and pushed it in.

There was nothing easy to eat here. I clicked my tongue lightly and focused on the game.

Ah! Youre so mean, hyung.

I was the first place. I ate the best parts I got as a prize elegantly, as if I was doing a mukbang. Yi-jun lost his appetite.

Next time, you will be the first place.

I put down my chopsticks cheekily. As soon as the meal time was over, the staff handed us a survey sheet the size of A4 before they left.

What is this?

The staff explained quickly as five pairs of eyes looked down at them.

This is a survey sheet that will be revealed as a comeback spoiler. It will also be posted on SNS, so please fill it out carefully.

There was nothing big in the content. What animal do you think represents you, what emoji do you use the most, what part of the single are you most confident in? It was questions like that and filling out the profile.

Oh, I can fill out the profile quickly I thought and then I realized.

I dont know my blood type in 2023.

I couldnt call the vice president and ask him, mom, whats my blood type? Then I saw Yi-jun searching for something on his phone.

Its updated again.

It was a wiki page that summarized Oh Yi-juns profile. He was a cunning guy who used his brain like a ghost.

I quietly searched for Climax on the wiki page.

There was something hanging on the page that had only the group debut date and the member names five months ago.

It was the same for my personal page.

When I clicked it five months ago, there was no recorded content and it said Write it now!.

It was a huge progress. Come to think of it, other YouTube channels would make us read the wiki pages or reactions from various sites as Reading Comments.

We had enough text now, so it seemed okay to try it.

Anyway, that was later and I copied the information on the wiki diligently.

It takes more time than I thought.

The rest of the members filled out the sheet on their own without relying on the wiki or anything.

About 20 minutes later. Yi-jun, who finished first, put down his pen and stretched. His writing was flying like a wild goose.

Write it neatly. This is going to be public.

Kyunghwa clicked his tongue at Yi-juns messy sheet.

Why does it matter, as long as its readable?

He seemed confident that he could read it.

That?

It was still enough to be a code breaking level. As I filled out the last survey carefully and put down my pen, Yi-jun looked at my sheet and admired it.

Wow, hyung, you write really well. Werent you really messy before?

I felt embarrassed but I lifted my head and answered. It was rare for someone who wrote well to write carelessly.

But on the contrary. There were some cases where people who couldnt write well became good at writing with effort and correction.

I fixed it. I changed my signature too.

Wow, I would believe it if you said it was someone elses handwriting.

It was actually someone elses, so I had no choice. Maybe later, if I got some handwriting analysis done, I would be spotlighted as an exceptional case.

But for now, I didnt have to worry about that, so I could go out shamelessly.

You should try to fix it too. You can do it.

Nah, no way. Only you can pull it off by gritting your teeth.

Seon-woo peeked his head up and checked my sheet, then exclaimed.

Wow, it looks like you printed it with a printer!

Dont exaggerate, its not that good.

I stroked Seon-woos cute head and looked down at the sheet I had finished writing.

[Q3. What am I most confident about in this single?]

The dance moves with moderation

Kyunghwa, who read the survey below, burst into laughter.

Why are you laughing?

When I asked him with a sincere look of confusion, Kyunghwa answered with a shrug.

You said dog, not puppy?

Im too big to be a puppy.

I wasnt just big, I had a decent physique. The height order was different in the group, but if I compared myself to the others Yi-jun had an insurmountable gap, and then it was me, Seong-won, Seon-woo, and Kyunghwa.

No matter how cute they thought I was, I wasnt a puppy. Something this big had to be called a dog, not a puppy.

Well, I get what image youre going for. But if you want to be something like a German shepherd or a husky, wouldnt a wolf be better?

No, I dont like that.

I had never seen a sane man who called himself a wolf. Then Kyunghwa picked up a pen and drew a picture of a large dog with pointed ears next to the word dog that I wrote.

What are you doing?

I thought you needed an explanation.

I quickly added a note under the picture that looked like either a Jindo or a German shepherd.

[Drawn by Kyunghwa]

Thats it for real.

As I tried to hide the sheet, Yi-jun confidently placed his sheet in the middle of the members.

Look at mine too.

I glanced at Oh Yi-juns sheet and read it.

You crazy bastard. What did you write for your specialty?

Whats your specialty?

Its true.

Never mind if its true or not. Isnt that too suggestive?

Kyaa, youre a pervert for thinking that way, hyung.

What are you talking about? Rewrite it.

I dont wanna.

Of course, Yi-juns fans seemed to like this side of him too. I cant live like this.

Wait a minute. His birthday was at the end of August. Why didnt he say anything? I asked in surprise at the date I hadnt thought of.

You had your birthday last month. Why didnt you tell me?

Yi-jun answered as if it was obvious.

Think about the mood back then. Could we have celebrated and had a blast?

Oh. I nodded as I recalled the gloomy atmosphere. Still, I could have made him some seaweed soup.

I sighed and read the items below.

[Q1. What animal represents me?]

Squirrel^^

[Q2. What emoji do I use the most?]

(Fire)

[Q3. What part of my new single am I most confident about?]

Self-producing

Everyone looked back and forth between Yi-juns face and the sheet, dumbfounded by his confident answer of squirrel.

Its the nickname the fans gave me. I have to use it.

Put USA in parentheses in front of it. USA.

This time, the sheet flew out of his hands and we couldnt catch it.

The cats that were sleeping under the eaves startled and lifted their heads at Yi-juns commotion.

I cant live like this. How did you guys write it?

I wasnt worried about Kyunghwa, but I was a bit concerned about Seong-won and Seon-woo. I took Seon-woos first and read it.

What is Pupa?

A food fighter.

Oh.

That was not my favorite field. I always believed that food should be enjoyed for its taste, not used for eating a lot.

That was my principle.

[Q1. What animal represents me?]

Dog pig dog

[Q2. What emoji do I use the most?]

(Blush+laugh)

[Q3. What part of my single am I most confident about?]

Visual!!

When I saw the scribbled line on the first question, I laughed and cried at the same time. I understood what he meant, but.

The word pig was so clear that everyone would think that the dog was a disguise and the pig was the main.

I barely kept a poker face and asked.

Why did you write and erase pig?
