I only play villains chapter 1

3 years is only 3 minutes.

“The car is too clogged. I don’t want to move.”

“Hey, be quiet. You are listening to the radio.”

-Fellow citizens, Comet 3I/Madrian will pass close to Earth soon!

-Do you see that little sun-like object across the universe? When the third interstellar Comet Magdrian gets closer to Earth, you will witness a very beautiful glow!

-Never, never miss this amazing astronomical phenomenon like never before in human history!

“Why did you sneak out and get into an accident? You use the car, so why am I driving?”

“Mrs. Lee Jung-sook’s son, should you speak kindly to your sister?”

– Breaking news! The comet’s orbit has changed! It is said that it will fly to the earth without passing by! But rest assured! By the time it hits the surface, it’s supposedly shrunk enough to not do too much damage!

“Yaya! Jeong Seo-hoon! that! that! Isn’t it a comet?”

“Damn it! The car won’t go because everyone is watching!”

-Experts from many countries, including the United States, Germany, Britain, and Russia, reported that they were fully prepared in advance to move directly to the comet’s crash site…

“uh? what? grow? grow! grow!”

“What gets bigger?”

“The comet is coming here! Aww! Everyone dies, everyone dies!”

“What’s the point of coming here? Are you putting on a show because you don’t want me to drive you?”

It was clearly visible in Jeong Seo-hoon’s eyes.

A gigantic flash of light, like a nuclear explosion, was rushing toward him without hesitation, consuming all his vision in all directions.

He fell alone, alone, into the flash of the comet’s kinetic energy.

***

everything has changed

At the request of her mother, she went out to pick up her older sister to the audition hall, but was stranded on a congested road, and now a different world was unfolding in front of her eyes.

The sound of shouting, crying, and the clumsy sound of military boots trying to match the heat.

A large officer mercilessly kicking a crying young soldier.

Soldiers lined up endlessly in front of and behind him.

Warships anchored are swallowing soldiers one after another.

A propaganda officer in uniform shouts loudly.

“The battle in these waters is very important! If you don’t recapture the Cordot Sea, your homeland, family, friends, everyone will be trampled on! Everyone must fight without sparing their lives!”

The cold feel of the rifle and the hard weight of the military uniform weighed heavily on Jeong Seo-hun’s consciousness.

“What is this… where the hell is this?”

Bread! Bread! Bread!

“······ Ha··········································

“What… are you talking about…”

“What are you doing! What are you doing! What are you doing!”

Amidst the blaring horns, the cackles of the mother’s first daughter gradually become distinct.

At that moment, Jeong Seo-hoon raised his upper body as if he was about to bounce and tried to run towards the first daughter of his mother in the passenger seat.

“Hey? Crazy? I’m not going, what are you doing! Get off quickly!”

Brakes caught like a miracle.

If he had been a little late, he would have brutally snapped her neck.

Jeong Seo-hoon blinked several times as he glared at his mother’s first daughter in front of him.

Then he quickly scanned and searched in all directions.

It resembles a soldier who has landed in an unfamiliar place nervously on alert.

‘Trained composure’ soon raised an important question.

“How long has it been since the comet fell?”

“Three minutes? No, start from the start! I’m going to be late!”

Jeong Seo-hoon calmly grabbed the steering wheel and stepped on the accelerator.

As the car started to move, the roar of the horns subsided.

‘Three minutes? Not three years?’

He fought on the battlefield for three years.

There, I thought that my entire life as Jeong Seo-hoon was a dream.

Could it be because the ‘Memories of Jeong Seo-hoon’ have been blurred for too long?

The two arms holding the steering wheel trembled invisibly and thinly, and the heart was beating wildly.

He bit his lip, forcing the excitement of his nerves to go wild.

I tried to search for old memories and threw a question.

“What happened to the comet?”

“Awesome. I heard the news, but I suddenly changed my route and fell into Gwanaksan Mountain. There must be a complete traffic jam right now?”

“Mt. Gwanak…”

“The school facilities must have suffered some damage. I’m glad you’re on vacation.”

school, vacation.

All of that was unfamiliar to Jeong Seo-hun.

It’s as if you’re wearing clothes that don’t fit your body.

The screams of the battlefield keep ringing loudly in my ears.

‘I thought Jeong Seo-hoon’s life was just a dream.’

Confusion does not leave the head.

The arms are still shaking.

I feel like I’m wearing clothes that don’t fit and I’ve been dragged to a stage I don’t want.

Jeong Seo-hoon’s memory came back to life, but it seemed as if he wasn’t Jeong Seo-hun.

The hallucinations of the guns sticking to my eardrums never leave.

In order to overcome the terrible sense of alienation, Jeong Seo-hoon tried to find something to say.

To look like Jeong Seo-hoon.

“By the way, do you still go to the audition?”

“what?”

“I think it’s great.”

Jeong Seo-hoon’s flesh and blood furrowed his eyebrows at the words he had barely extracted from Jeong Seo-hoon’s memory.

That name is probably…

‘Is Jeong Su-ryun right?’

Jung Soo-ryun raised her eyes again and stared at her.

His gaze was tinged with an eerie annoyance.

“Why? Do you want to make fun of the b*tch who doesn’t take cameras so badly that she’s still out of her mind and going to audition for actors? Are you afraid that you’re going to rob all of your family’s assets just because you’re an actor? Are you afraid you won’t have to pay your kid’s tuition?”

“…”

“Stop the f*cking. Please update your head bit by bit. Do you think I’m going to audition for a role right now?”

“Are you going to audition?”

“I’m going as an employee, Lee Jung-sook’s first son. When will the celebrity disease get better? Do you still think I am seriously ill?”

“…”

The memory came flooding back.

Celebrity disease, seriously ill.

These were all things Jeong Seo-hoon, no, himself said.

Jeong Su-ryun, who poured out sarcastic remarks without changing her expression, put her head on the paper again.

***

Jeong Su-ryun was the directing staff.

Originally, it was my dream to become an actor, but I gave up after repeating frustration because of the mask that didn’t catch the cameras.

However, I couldn’t bear to stop broadcasting, and I continued to work as a directing staff.

The reason why I dragged the car was because I had to pick up my colleagues and I had luggage to carry.

Her mother gave her a ride every time, hoping that her only daughter would suffer less.

Also, in order to prevent the unfortunate incident of changing the bumper, the key is not given.

“Hey, what are you doing? Listen quickly!”

“I?”

“Did you just drive and try to get paid, Ms. Lee Jung-sook’s first son? You know that Mrs. Lee Jung-sook is very picky about things like that, right? If you don’t work properly, you won’t be paid today.”

Jeong Seo-hoon first called his mother to confirm the facts.

-yes? I’ll give you 15 pocket money, so I have to help my sister. Where do you do it once or twice?

It was only then that I remembered that Jeong Seo-hoon had sometimes worked part-time jobs like this.

On the outside, while frowning and swearing at Shivasiva, on the inside, I liked it as a part-time job.

I got 150,000 won in pocket money after carrying my luggage a few times, driving for a while, and waiting for the rest.

The reason my mother didn’t bother to talk about money was because an agreement had already been formed.

Jeong Seo-hoon took out his luggage and moved into the broadcasting station.

In the scene where so many entertainers, reporters, staff, and directors came and went that the corridor was so cramped, I suddenly felt dizzy and my hands were shaking.

It felt like there might be enemy soldiers digging holes and hiding in the scenery pretending to be a busy daily life.

‘Damn it.’

Suppressing the trembling aftereffects of the war, he picked up his luggage and followed Jeong Su-ryun.
