128 – Public Enemies (14)
1.
Jumping.
“I’ve been back…”
I opened the door to the practice room and an exhausted Yoo Ji-woo entered.
Naturally, everyone in the practice room focused on Yoo Ji-woo, and they all raised their eyebrows at the absence of the person who should have had the most leisurely breakup.
“Yes, it was hard… Huh? Brother is?”
“Ah… My manager oppa went to the ward office for a while. He said he had to go through some kind of procedure to get the bounty money, so he sent it to me first.”
“Gu Office? Bounty? I filmed it for a while, but what the hell happened to say that?”
Kang Jin-hyuk must have just gone out to film a self-introduction video, but he went to the ward office and went through the process of receiving a bounty.
In this situation where it is not clear what kind of incident they were involved in, there was only one person who could answer the questions of Byeol and the other members.
That Yujiu faced the six pairs of gazes pouring down on him, and opened his mouth with a very tired face that did not fit the nickname of human vitamin.
“That’s why… It’s not that long, so to speak, but it’s not that short either…”
Like that, Yoo Ji-woo went to film a self-introduction video and started talking about how the manager accurately hit the middle of the forehead of a furiously charging wild boar with his bare hands and sent it to the ward office to collect a bounty in the name of saving a harmful assistant.

“Yes, wait!”
A lengthy and grand story that lasts for about 30 minutes, but the narrator is Yoo Ji-woo, so let’s just end the cute story.
“The wild boar. That also sent a wild boar that was charging at it with a single punch from the front? No matter how good my brother is at fighting, that’s beyond the human realm. I know your sister thinks her brother is a great person, but this kind of sucking can cause a backlash.”
“That’s right, unnie Jiwoo. I honestly can’t believe it. I know Jinhyeok oppa is an extraordinary person, but…”
Hari and Nauri, who can make relatively rational judgments about Kang Jin-hyeok, tackled him.
“It’s real! Did I see it with my own two eyes? Really, the manager oppa punched the wild boar with his fist! Hit the boar thump! I fell down!”
“To think he fell down after being beaten. It’s a cute expression that doesn’t fit the serious situation, but I believe it. Even that would not be too difficult for my brother.”
“Right. In front of the manager, I feel like a wild boar or something.”
“That’s right!”
Fortunately, Yoo Ji-woo’s resentment stemming from the tackle of the youngest line was resolved by the two people who believed in Kang Jin-hyeok excessively to the point that they were stepping into madness.
“·······It was hard. So did you finish filming well?”
After a brief unfortunate incident, the separation, the only one who knew exactly what Kang Jin-hyeok had actually done and what he could do, reminded him of his original purpose.
“Oh yes! Camera here!”
Yoo Ji-wu raised an exclamation mark above his head at the words of farewell and handed the camera he was carrying to Byeol.
“Okay. Then, shall we check where and what kind of video was taken?”
“Oh! Then let’s go to the computer office! See you all there!”
“I like it. Is it okay if I erase it?”
“Eh, huh? Uh, Haru-ya, I don’t know if it’s okay… I feel a bit ashamed to say that all of a sudden people flock to my video and watch it together…”
“Think of it as prior learning, unnie Ji-woo. When you debut, tens, hundreds of thousands, no, tens of thousands of people will see your face, so why not show it to only six people?”
“Okay, let’s go. The manager took the picture, so it must be cool.”
“Oh, cool? I? Let’s go then! If the manager, oppa, took a picture of me as a cool unnie, then I’m good!”
I didn’t say that Kang Jin-hyeok took a picture of Yoo Ji-woo like a cool older sister, and in reality, let alone a cool older sister, the composition was shot to emphasize an infinitely cute and harmless image, but no one here knew that fact.
Therefore, Yu Ji-woo, the members, and Byeol, filled with self-confidence with the delusion that Kang Jin-hyuk would have taken pictures of her like a cool older sister, headed to the office to check the video taken by Kang Jin-hyuk.
※※※
[Huh, the spring breeze feels good.]
In the monitor, Yoo Ji-woo received the spring breeze and smiled briskly as his hair rustled.
Her sunlight shining exquisitely through her leaves, her intentional composition taken from slightly above her looking down at her, and her psychic powers that make even her butterflies unaware can be compared. Up to a degree of harmlessness.
As all of those things came together, a video was born that is more than enough to make people fall in love with Yu Ji-woo, and has a certain power.
“Ji, Jiwoo unnie is so cute!”
“Wow… Jiu-chan, Dottemo Kawaii… (Jiu is so cute…)”
“I-I want to own this video! Let me download it please!”
“Really cute…”
“I just laughed out loud, but this level of cuteness… This child, when it comes to cuteness, he’s far surpassing me… What the hell did you create? Kang Jin-hyuk~~~!!!”
As evidence of that, already five fans fell in love with Yoo Ji-woo.
“Jiwoo unnie is so cute! Oh, can I hug you? Can I hug you and rub your cheeks? Can I suck on your cheeks?!?!”
“Uh, uh uh? Ah, it’s not bad… Am I that cute?”
“Tell me what are you doing! Jiwoo unnie is the cutest in the world! It’s beyond words! It’s shameful because Ji-woo and I eat and sleep in the same house every day. If it was someone else, we would have collapsed from sudden cardiac arrest after watching this video!”
“Eh, ehehehe, that’s right… I’m about that much…”
In the video, she wasn’t the cool older sister that she had hoped for, but she was, contrary to expectations, she was the cutest girl in the world, but she was Yuji-woo, who was happy to receive compliments.
“Jiu-chan! I want to pet Jiwoo-chan too! Naderu Youoni sh*tekudasai! (Let me pet you!)”
“Uh, huh? What do you mean by day? Nadaeru… What is Nadaeru?”
“Well, it must mean that I will show myself as usual. Okay, Ji-woo, do you want to come over here for a second and give your sister a hug? I’m not a person who normally does things like this, but today I’m going to do it.”
“Eh? Ha-an unnie, what about me? Go, suddenly come and say this.”

“Wait, Hani! I’m first! I really can’t stand it!”
“Up to the lira?!”
“No! Everyone come behind me! I said I would be the first to hug, rub the fire, and suck on the cheeks, so I’m first in first-come, first-served order!”
“Me too?! Is this a mess…?!”
The members, who were blinded by Jiwoo’s fantastic cuteness in the video, rushed at Yoo Jiwoo.
“Uh, uh uh uh, wait a minute, I’m stupid…!”
It was quite a happy thing for Yoo Ji-woo, who likes skinship, to have four gemstones with the talent to become the best idols want him, but apart from that, he couldn’t help but feel fear under the pressure of the force.
“Hug me…!”
“Hiii’s profit ······
The moment Yu Ji-woo was about to be hugged by the members who were so cute.
[Chwiiyiik!]
[Chuiiik! Goo goo goo!]
[Hee-ik…!]
A wild sound resonated in the video on the monitor that had been playing continuously, which did not quite match the harmless video so far.
“Oh, a wild boar? Did you keep filming?”
The owner of the careless sound that breaks the harmless atmosphere is none other than a wild boar who passed away at the hands of Kang Jin-hyeok.
“What? Oh, manager Oppa saw a wild boar and gave me a camera. I guess I didn’t press the button at that time and kept filming.”
“That means that my brother kills a wild boar with one shot… No, no. You mean there was a great scene filmed protecting the idol in charge from the vicious assistant?”
“Uh… I don’t know if it was a good shot because I just received the camera in a frozen state, but yes. First of all, the lens must have been pointed toward the boar.”
[How much was the reward for killing the boar? March is a time when wild boar births are high, so it must be a reward period. Jiwoo, I’m sorry, but hold the camera for a second.]
[Eh?]
“Ohhh… That’s real.”
As Yu Ji-woo said, even after Kang Jin-hyeok moved the camera, a wild boar was sitting in the center of the video screen.
Turb. Turbuck. Turbuck.
Soon, with the sound of trustworthy footsteps, Kang Jin-hyeok’s back settled down firmly between the camera and the wild boar that came in from outside the screen.
[Kwajik! Thud!]
As Yoo Ji-woo said, Kang Jin-hyeok in the video sank the wild boar with one punch.
“It was filmed properly… I never thought things would turn out like this…!”
Seeing Kang Jin-hyeok in the video, Byeol clenched his fists in the belief that his wish could come true.
