109 – Showers (1)
Meanwhile.
In JYB’s representative office.
“From JYB’s point of view, I will state that it has nothing to do with the facts.”
With those words ending the phone call, Baek Joon-young let out a deep sigh.
Then, with a limp body, I leaned my back completely against the chair.
“After…… It hurts.”
Junyoung Baek has been in trouble lately.
It is about Lee Da-hye, the youngest child of Hong-ryeon.
What kind of idol is Lee Da-hye in JYB?
Junyoung Baek immediately thought of vitamins.
She works hard in everything, is kind, pretty, and seems to gain strength just by looking at something.
That’s why Lee Da-hye’s popularity is considerable even within JYB, and Baek Joon-young also cares for her very much.
But lately, Lee Da-hye has been causing a lot of trouble as an idol.
It was a dating rumor.
Recently, Lee Da-hye often showed herself on camera as a student rather than a red-hot idol.
A program called Go Quiz and the Korea Youth Theater Festival.
The controversial thing here is that there is always a male student next to her.
That’s also a very friendly look, and it’s sweet enough to say that if anyone sees her, they’ll know that she’s dating.
…… There was no way that Baek Joon-yeong did not know who the male student was.
The world is full of hope that the genealogy of the 927 writer may be passed on to the male student.
From Baek Joon-young’s point of view, it’s a really funny story.
927 The writer retired and people were desperate. And a few months later, when she saw the boy who reappeared like fate, she saw her hope again. However, how will people react when they realize that the two are the same person?
‘I’m afraid I’m going to fall into a lot of confusion…’ ….’
Baek Joon-yeong smiled bitterly as she recalled a certain family.
Anyway, this is not the only time that the male student at the center of the topic, Seo Eun-woo, appeared with Lee Da-hye.
Although it was an accident, a photo of Lee Da-hye holding her arms with Seo Eun-woo on a bus briefly became a hot topic in the community a few months ago.
Of course, her face was mosaic-processed at that time, so her identity was not revealed properly. However, the fact that her upper body was not completely mosaic was a problem.
Thanks…….

[The reason why the bus man and Seo Eun-woo are the same person]
First of all, Da-hye Lee is 168 cm tall, right? But Seo Eun-woo is roughly in his mid-to-late 180s.
When I roughly compared the heights in the photo, they are almost identical.
Aside from that, there are many similarities in overall physique (clothing fit, shoulders, forearm muscles).

This was a hot topic in the community right now.
Most of the public opinion was already moving toward agreeing with this reasoning, so Baek Joon-young just got a sudden phone call.
From Espatch, Korea’s most famous entertainment media that moves the news of celebrities’ love the most sensitively.
And the official there asked Baek Joon-young directly.
Seo Eun-woo and Lee Da-hye are going to publish an article about the suspicion of dating rumors. What is JYB’s position by any chance?
First of all, as the representative of JYB, I replied that it had nothing to do with the facts. In about three days, the Espatch article will probably contain what I just said.
Idol dating rumors give a significant blow in terms of image.
That’s also the dating rumor of Lee Da-hye, the most popular member in Hongryeon who is in the midst of her heyday. Even she is about to make a comeback, so she will get even more gossip.
Junyoung Baek sighed again. This time, unlike before, it was just filled with sadness.
He could roughly imagine what kind of expression Lee Da-hye would be making after the incident happened.
Dating rumors are like an unavoidable fate in a short life in the entertainment industry. What will happen in the future will surely be remembered as a bad thing for Dahye.
She is a child who especially hates causing harm to others, so she will probably blame herself a lot and get hurt.
Of course, there’s just one trick to get out of this situation in an instant.
However, it is a method that completely requires the consent of the person, and at the same time, it is also a method that the person is extremely reluctant to do.
If you look at the person’s progress so far, it must be the direction of not expecting it.
Um… But that’s it.
The direction of not expecting it is correct, but for some reason, I am expecting it.
Also, when it comes to women, isn’t it the man’s creature that suddenly changes his attitude?
Especially since that person looked at Dahye from her first meeting, it was unusual.
“hehehe.”
So Baek Joon-young turned on his phone again with a hearty smile and tried to make a call somewhere.
Knock- Knock-
It was then.
Someone knocked on the door to Baek Jun-young’s office, and as if he had visited frequently, he opened the door and a man entered.
Kyu-Min Oh.
This year, he is 31 years old, and he has been in charge of Hongryeon’s manager for two years.
At his appearance, Baek Joon-young tilted his head with a puzzled expression.
“Gyumin-ah, why are you here all of a sudden? Isn’t it time to pick up Dahye at this time?”
The current time is 4:38.
It was already past 4:30 at Hanbit Art High School.
In other words, originally, it means that it is already time to arrive at the front gate of Hanbit Notice and bring Da-hye Da-hye to her car.
“That… ….”
Kyu-Min Oh explained the circumstances.
To pick up Lee Da-hye, I started the car and stepped on the accelerator, but I felt something strange.
So I looked at the car to see if there was a problem, and the tire pressure warning light was on red, and for some reason the tire had a flat tire.
“…… Since when?”
“I don’t know the details either. I’m sure he was fine even on the way home from taking Dahye this morning.”
“Write…… That’s kind of weird.”
“Once I told Dahye that I wouldn’t be able to pick her up right away because of her tire problem, she said she would come on her own. Once she said to take a taxi…… “
“Yes. It’s obvious that she won’t be riding anyway.”
Dahye Lee used public transportation to go to and from school often.
Sometimes when Oh Kyu-min can’t operate the car due to unavoidable circumstances like now, or when he wants to have some time alone. You’re probably more used to this than an expensive taxi.
For reference, it is not too far as you can get to JYB’s head office building from Hanbit Art High School in 5 minutes by subway or 15 minutes on foot.
Originally, I would have headed to a dormitory closer to school, but recently I tend to come straight to the headquarters to prepare for a comeback.
In the first place, Lee Da-hye, who recently entered, had to go to and from school only through her manager, Oh Gyu-min’s car.
She is currently struggling with various entertainment companies due to idol stalking or sasaeng fan issues, so in a way, it was a natural decision for Baek Joon-young.
And for some reason, Lee Da-hye also followed Baek Joon-young’s words without saying anything. Of course, Seo Eun-woo’s worried nagging played a part in this, and there was no way Baek Joon-young knew about it.
Anyway.
“For now, Gyu-min-ah, go as far as you can to the station and meet Da-hye. If we go now, we will meet roughly at the halfway point.”
“Yes. I will.”
“Oh, and I’ll ask for additional help just in case.”
“…… To whom?”
“Yes. The devil-like person I ate for free the other day.”
***
Something unusual happened.
A tea ignorant guy has dinner plans with her family.
From noble mtl dot com
So she ended up leaving school alone in the gloomy weather.
…… I just knew it would be so.
“Seo Eun-woo! Are you going alone?”
“Lee Da-hye?”
Before she left the school gate, Lee Da-hye hurriedly approached me with her gorgeous blonde hair flying.
Soon, Lee Da-hye stood in front of me. Her unusual blue eyes stared at me.
First of all, I was the one who answered the question.
“Yes. It happened because Musik said he had an appointment with her family.”
“Really?”
…… ?
Then, for some reason, Lee Da-hye hesitated on something while fidgeting with her fingers.
It looked as if he had something to say to me.
And if you look closely, you can see that he has a faint smile.
“What’s up?”
“No! Just… I was wondering if you could take me to the station.”
“To the station? Are you going to take the subway?”
“Yes. But is that such a surprise?”
“The manager has been picking me up every day lately.”
Usually, Mu-Sik Cha and I take the bus together to go home, and in the case of So-Young Seol, her personal driver named Min-Seok Cha picks us up by car.
As for Seol So-young, Lee Da-hye’s manager picks her up by car.
Of course, there are times when I use transportation such as the subway, but on the day of the closing ceremony of the Korea Youth Theater Festival, I nagged me not to go alone, so from then on, I only went to and from school through the manager.
So naturally, I couldn’t help but wonder.
“The manager suddenly had a problem.”
“So you can’t pick me up right away?”
“Yes. And Hongryeon’s comeback soon. I have to go as fast as possible and practice more, but that’s why I keep waiting here.”
“Can’t we just take a taxi to get to JYB headquarters quickly from here?”
“…… Fool.”
Lee Da-hye uttered her sudden, meaningless words.
She hadn’t realized what the situation was yet……
“I just wanted to be alone with you, even for a little while.”
“Ah.”
The moment she saw Lee Da-hye say that with a slight blush on her face, she immediately understood what was going on.
Thanks to that, she couldn’t help but sigh.
