Koo Tae-hwan knew that he was very perceptive.
He quickly recognized secrets and weaknesses that others wanted to hide, and quickly figured out what the other person wanted.
When I was young, I was so quick-witted that I used to get into trouble.
When I was in elementary school, I noticed that when my homeroom teacher scolded my friends, it was not because they did something wrong, but because she was in a bad mood.
So, I asked my homeroom teacher why he took out something that made him angry on his friend.
'Hey, hey, you stupid brat!'
There were times when I heard him swear until his face turned red.
Is that it?
I was ostracized for asking a group of friends, 'You and them both hate each other, so why do you pretend to like each other?'
When this happened repeatedly, his father disciplined him to talk less and think three times before speaking.
Thanks to that, I've been living comfortably since then.
I also learned that noticing something and saying it out loud are two different things.
So Koo Tae-hwan was confident in understanding people.
but… … .
'I really don't know.'
I don't know about Han Si-on.
This is the first time I've seen someone so clueless.
That's the case even now.
Han Si-on, who was sitting in a cafe after colliding with Fade, did not show any significant change in expression.
'… … 'Is it my imagination that I seem to be in a good mood?'
It was definitely not a good situation.
Jiying-
At that time, the vibrating bell that said the drink was ready rang and I got up from my seat, and Choi Jae-seong hurriedly followed suit.
"Brother, I will go."
"Come with me."
Currently, the members of Sedalbaekil were at a cafe not far from the filming location.
A visit on their own, without cameras or staff.
Originally, there was more filming after the karaoke mission, but it was stopped due to a fight between Han Sion and Fade.
'But is it a fight?'
Han Si-on responded like someone who had been waiting for Fade to start an argument.
Then he looked down on Fade and mocked him.
'It looked so familiar.'
Koo Tae-hwan was embarrassed to see that Han Si-on seemed accustomed to putting others down.
He definitely didn't seem like that type of person... … .
Fade, who fought first, also cursed to hide his surprise.
As a result, Han Sion unilaterally mocked him and the fight ended.
The problem was that this logically did not make sense.
There is no doubt that Han Si-on is a really good contestant.
But what if Coming Up Next had to choose between a member of Take Scene and Han Si-On?
Of course, Han Si-on gets kicked out.
So what on earth did you believe in and came out like that?
'Is there anyone at the broadcasting station?'
But if that were the case, shouldn't the situation have ended and someone have been called or messaged?
Han Si-on just sat quietly and observed Fade fuming.
As if he were commenting on how angry he was.
It was really strange.
And Koo Tae-hwan felt this strangeness from the beginning.
During the filming of Team B's selection match.
The other participants didn't seem to know, but Han Si-on was upset the whole time.
I felt bored and trivialized by everything.
However, the moment I went on stage for the pre-mission, the feeling I got from people changed completely.
I was singing
But once the stage is over, the person changes again.
It felt arrogant as if he was evaluating the judges' comments, but he showed polite gratitude.
I've never seen anyone change their feelings so quickly.
So Gu Tae-hwan continued to observe Han Si-on.
Han Si-on was clearly a successful candidate, so he thought that if he passed, he could make the team.
But even after continuing to observe, I still don't know.
It was like that when I helped with the first mission.
Han Si-on certainly did his best to help, but he wasn't really interested in the results of the performance.
He suddenly became depressed and angry at his teammates, but then prepared for the second mission with enthusiasm again.
Then, when Koo Tae-hwan was competing for the last spot on Team B, he secretly helped him pass.
I have no idea.
I guess it's because he's a genius, but it also seems like it's separate from musical talent... … .
'ah!'
There was only one consistent attitude.
I don't know why, but I really liked it when I said, 'I will try.'
I even did it on purpose a few times.
It's still hard to call him a friend, but he was a really strange friend.
"Taehwan hyung? Shall I come in?"
"Uh, no. I'll take this with me. "Would you please listen to that?"
"yes."
When I returned to my seat with coffee, Lee Ion held out his smartphone.
"Taehwan and Jaeseong also give me their numbers. "I'll dig up the group chat room and post it as a notice."
"yes."
"yes!"
Lee Ion, who saved all the members' numbers, sold the group chat room and started off with a light story.
"What did everyone do after the team selection match? "You had a few free days."
"I practiced because I was anxious."
"me too."
In Koo Tae-hwan's opinion, Lee Ion is not the type to take the initiative and sort out the situation.
However, I think he brought the members to the cafe because of his sense of responsibility as the eldest brother.
By the time the light talk had gone round, Ion Lee got to the point.
"Actually, you all know why we gathered here today. "I'm not used to this, so I turned around too much, didn't I?"
"Is it because of what happened with Fade earlier? But I'm really fine."
Everyone's attention was focused on Han Sion.
"What's okay?"
"I heard Fade is coming tomorrow to apologize. "I won't be leaving."
"Are you sure? "You told the producer earlier that you would be leaving the show."
"To be exact, I said that if Fade didn't apologize, I would leave the show. "Apologizing is easy, right?"
In response to Si-ion Han's answer, Ion Lee expressed the thought that everyone had in common.
"I don't have to answer because it's a sensitive question… … . Do you have any connections at the broadcasting station?"
"no? "It can't be."
"Then how can you be sure? Because of the sound source under the streetlight?"
"I have some stake in that. But more than that, I think it's just like that."
Han Si-on seemed to have some thoughts, but he didn't seem to have any intention of sharing them with the members.
It may be a difficult and complicated reason to explain.
There was a moment of silence, and surprisingly, it was Onsaemiro who broke the silence.
"Do you think it would be okay if I got off?"
"Isn't that true? why?"
"You don't know what's going on in the world. "It's not like the probability is 100%, but I don't think they really care."
"I believe it 100%."
"then… … I'm glad."
The atmosphere warmed up a little with Onsaemiro's last words.
This was because On Saemi-ro seemed to be worried about Han Si-on.
However, in Koo Tae-hwan's view, it was an ambiguous emotion rather than worry, and the conversation was strangely close.
If I had chosen just a few words differently, it would have felt completely different.
'Does On Saemi want to compete with Han Si On?'
I think that might be the case.
I don't know because I've never sung as well as those two, but they are talented.
"okay. Shion may have thoughts too, and there may be something that is difficult to explain to us. "Should we end this story here?"
Choi Jae-seong interjected in Lee Ion's words to change the atmosphere.
"But Ion hyung. "I've always been curious about something."
"huh? What?"
"Have you ever met someone more handsome than your brother, even once in your life?"
"Of course there is."
"when? "Where?"
"At the movie premiere."
"… … "Are you sure the actors are doing stage greetings?"
"huh."
"… … ."
"why?"
"no. no."
Koo Tae-hwan, who was listening, also added his words.
"You're really handsome."
"Uh, thank you. Taehwan, you too."
The ending was Han Si-on's inaudible whisper.
"But. everyone."
"huh?"
"You know that another table is listening to us, right?"
It was natural.
Even if only Lee Ion came in, everyone would be staring, but now that 4 handsome men have been added to the mix.
The members, who looked a little embarrassed, changed the topic.
After that, the Sedalbaekil members chatted for longer than expected.
No matter what anyone says, the number one contributor was Choi Jae-seong.
Choi Jae-seong was not the type to act cute and belittle his older brothers like other youngest members.
Instead, he had a knack for casually bringing up topics that were difficult for his brothers to bring up first.
I think it's intentional, but I don't think that's the area of calculation.
It's instinctive.
The intelligence to understand the social atmosphere is high.
"Oh, right. Brothers. "I saw this while I was on my phone in the bathroom earlier."
"What?"
"I'll just post the link in the group chat room."
The link posted by Choi Jae-seong was a review of a photo shoot that one of today's audience members appeared to have posted on an idol community.
There were a lot of comments, but surprisingly, it was Han Zion who responded with the most interest to the fans' reactions.
"Lion's Den… … ? Oh, does this refer to Ryan Enter?"
"yes. "That's what people call me."
"Why is M Show called Saeng Show?"
"Ah, in the beginning, Mbang was famous as Balka. "I don't do that now."
"Valka… … ?"
"… … brother. "Do you usually not monitor the community at all?"
"huh. "I've never done it before."
However, it felt a bit like talking to an elderly person.
Anyway, what was important was the content, not the title.
In particular, the author evaluated Take Scene and Three Months, and the evaluation items themselves were simple.
If you skip the take scene and just look at three months and one hundred days... … .

[Koo Tae-hwan]
Appearance: I think I'll go back and forth between 6 and 9 points because it's a style that depends on one's taste.
Skills: Did you feel a little anxious when the pitch went up? It feels good so 7.5?
Atmosphere: Unlike the appearance, the atmosphere seemed a bit calm. It might appeal to people who like unbalance, but for me, it's a 6.
[Onsaemiro]
Appearance: It looks like I rode it sloppily because I didn't pay attention to it, but if I get a camera massage and take care of it, it will go up. Now it's 7.5
Skill: I'm with Juyeon who gave 10 points, but I think 9 is okay.
Atmosphere: I didn't feel particularly welcome. 7.
[Lee Ion]
Appearance: 100 points out of 10. This is the highest dignity I have ever seen in real life while cutting a stone tablet.
Skill: 7~8? I called it okay.
Atmosphere: I couldn't read the atmosphere. It's just so damn dazzling. I can't give it a score.
[Han Sion]
Appearance: Just looking at the looks, it seems like people's tastes may be a bit different. 8.5?
Skills: I couldn't tell if I was good enough to sing an old, easy song, but it was great to listen to. Ah, it's difficult to give a score. 8~8.5?
Atmosphere: I really liked the feeling the people gave me. Dealing with the audience is also a pleasure. 10.
[Choi Jae-seong]
Appearance: You look a bit young. About 7.5?
Skills: I felt like I was out of breath listening to it, but he sang it with ease. 8?
Atmosphere: I didn't feel anything special. 7.
I was going to write in more detail, but I wrote it on my phone on the subway so I kept it short.
Anyway, this looks pretty fun, but if you watch it live... … .
