Chapter 243
While Kang Si Yoon was planning to visit his own birthday billboard, the members were also talking about how they should celebrate his birthday.
[Si Yoon's team without Si Yoon (6 people)]
Hyung Bin hyung
So is this how it's going to end up?? If you have anything else you want to add, quickly tell me now
Eun Gyu hyung
@Yoon Chul Yoon Chul, I'm just saying this just in case, but you shouldn't make the carrot cake too delicious?? You know that, right?

Min Ha
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ let's try to make it as tasteless as possible
Min Ha
But what if Siyoon hyung suddenly gets really lucky and gets hit with chocolate cake?
Me
Then I will try my best to interfere.
Yubin
Isn't this hit or miss? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Hyungbin hyung
That's the plan ^_^
We discussed what kind of event we should prepare together and came up with a format that is truly Kang Si-yoon-like.
In Song Hyung-bin's words, it's a so-called 'dopamine addict's hit or miss'.
Before February 10th, we each have to choose a type of cake and make it ourselves or buy it from outside.
It's up to you which cake you bring. You can use really tasteless ingredients, or you can buy a delicious cake sold at a regular cake shop.
On the day of Kang Si-yoon's birthday, he randomly picks a number and eats the birthday cake.
It was only one chance. If he gets a weird cake, it can't be turned down. You just have to hold back tears and endure it.
I thought we needed one normal menu among the weird menus, so I decided on chocolate cake.
I made a detailed request to the cake shop because I thought it would be boring if I went too safe.
I asked for half of the chocolate cake to be dark cacao as bitter as possible.
The other half would be a regular sweet milk chocolate flavor, but the other half was intended to have the deep, very bitter flavor of dark cacao.
We didn't stop at the cake but planned in detail the outfits to change into during the live broadcast that day, the drinks to drink, the seats, etc., all of which were randomly selected.
It's like a tailored strategy just for Kang Si-yoon, who always likes to rely on luck.
This is why the title came up with strange names like [Caution!! This broadcast should only be viewed by those 15 years or older!! ※Risk of gambling addiction※].
"Ha, I can feel that today's main character is me."
6 PM on February 10th.
Kang Si-yoon, who entered the spacious filming space inside Sigma Entertainment, stretched out both arms to the side after seeing the numerous balloons and large banners that filled the place.
"All eyes on me~ This air is getting hotter~."
"Hey, if you're going to sing, you should sing our song!"
"That's right, what are you doing!"
"Ah, loading error. Loading error."
We were originally planning to hide between the balloons and come out, but Kang Si-yoon hummed another idol group's song, so the plan fell through.
Kang Si-yoon immediately put both hands together politely and sang a key verse from
"You're under my rule!"
"Wow, did you boil the train funnel and eat it?"
[It is used to describe a person who has a loud voice because the train that used coal as a fuel was very loud]
"Okay, okay, Seleve! Hello! It's been a while!"
"No, you told me to sing our song, so you shouldn't ignore me as a group! It's my birthday today!"
When Song Hyung-bin naturally passed Kang Si-yoon and greeted the Seleves who came into Star Live, today's main character let out a groan as if he was hurt.
However, after a while, he looked at the tablet on the desk and expressed his gratitude to the fans who were wishing him a happy birthday in a completely different voice.
"Seleves, thank you so much! I'm so happy to be able to spend my 21st birthday with you all!"
"Why aren't you mentioning us?"
"That's right, hyung. Is it okay if we're not here?"
"Oh, you're getting attacked hard from the start today?"
Song Hyung-bin and Heo Yu-bin, who seemed determined to tease Kang Si-yoon today, smiled meaningfully.
"You can look forward to today!"
"But wasn't it the rule to be nice to the person on their birthday? Why am I the exception?"
"Well, it's Si-yoon's birthday."
"Even Eun-gyu hyung is like this? Okay, I don't know what you've prepared today, but okay!"
I wondered if Kang Si-yoon would be able to maintain his confident expression until the end of the surprise event we prepared today.
"Since today is Si-yoon's birthday, we prepared only things you like. First, you have to pick a number. What do you like?"
"No, are we just going to do this without any prior explanation? I'm a little confused right now."
"It's fun if you're confused!"
"Is that right?"
Kang Si-yoon tilted his head as if something was strange as he sat down in the center seat, but for now, he had to randomly choose a number.
Before choosing, he asked the tens of thousands of Seleves who had come to watch StarUs Live.
"Seleves, which number do you think would be best?"
"Oh, we didn't tell you how many there are? Just choose from 1 to 6."
After hearing Kang Si-yoon's question, the Seleves all sent the numbers they wanted into the chat window.
└ Definitely 1!!
└ 1111
└ Let's do 6, Siyoon!!
└ go 3 please
└ SIYOON HAPPY BIRTHDAY❤❤ LOVE FROM INDONESIA
Kang Si-yoon, who was briefly reading the feast of texts that came rushing in like waves, tapped his fingers as if he had read a message that he liked.
"Si-yoon debuted as the fifth person in IPS, so how about number 5?! Oh, this is meaningful. I'll take number 5!"
We, who had set all the numbers in advance, immediately knew what kind of cake Kang Si-yoon had chosen.
The live broadcast was already showing who the owner of number 5 was from their expressions.
Song Hyung-bin, who was leading the event, also shook his head after seeing Yoo Min-ha's face.
"Then, will Min-ha bring it?"
"Hehe, yes!"
"What, what are you bringing?"
If it were the usual Kang Si-yoon, he would have been able to use his quick wits to figure out what was going on, but because the members were pushing him so hard, his judgment seemed to have slowed down a bit.
He only realized what was going on when Yoo Min-ha brought a silver-covered tray from the corner.
"Ah, ah! So that's why you said you only prepared things I like? Is everything going to be a hit or miss today?"
"You're only realizing it now, Si-yoon. You're so slow to catch on."
"Hey, even if you were in my situation, it would be hard to keep up. As soon as I came in, you suddenly told me to sing our song, didn't respond at all, and sat down out of nowhere to pick a number, and then you suddenly started laughing like that. How can I figure this out?"
"You're a kid who can do it no matter what."
"Uh... I'll gladly accept the compliment."
Yoo Min-ha hummed and placed his tray in front of Kang Si-yoon.
"Hyung, before you open this, guess what's inside. I'll give you a hint. It's some kind of cake!"
"Haven't you already given me all the hints? There will be different cakes depending on the number I chose, and of course there will be weird cakes mixed in if it's a lucky draw."
"Oh, as expected, Si-yoon hyung, you're quick-witted. Then what do you think my cake will be?"
"Huh."
Kang Si-yoon crossed his arms and thought for a moment.
Judging by the way his eyebrows slightly furrowed inward, he must have been thinking about it in his own way.
"It's definitely a lucky draw and it's my birthday, so everyone must have tried to put in weird things. But since it's a show in front of Seleves, if you just put in weird things, the picture will look weird, so there must have been opinions that you should put in some good things here and there. But it could be a trick that you intentionally intended to make me think this way, right? But I'm thinking of it twice! You're leading me to think that you might have put in some good things-"
"Uh....... Siyoon, I'm sorry, but can you just tell us the conclusion? I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Oh, yes. Anyway, I think it'll be a weird cake."
Will Kang Shiyoon's prediction be correct?
We watched in silence as he slowly opened the tray lid himself.
"Okay, open it! 3, 2, 1! Please! At least something edible!"
Kang Si-yoon opened his birthday cake with a strong spirit.
The cake that appeared in front of him was.......
It boasted a green visual that somehow reminded him of fresh vegetables.
"What kind of cake is this?"
Kang Si-yoon said with a tone that seemed genuinely embarrassed.
Then Yoo Min-ha smiled brightly and revealed the identity of the cake.
"It's a green tea cake I made myself! I learned it from Yoon-chul and tried making it, but I can't guarantee the taste!"
"No one will say the words 'I can't guarantee the taste' as happily as you do."
"It's more about sincerity than taste!"
Yoo Min-ha wiggled his index finger and said that this wasn't the end.
"Actually, I thought it would be lacking in character if it was just a green tea cake, so I put a bomb in the middle."
"A bomb?"
"You didn't tell us that!"
"Hehe, we learned that fooling your team is the real surprise!"
We gulped.
Yoo Minha, who is always unpredictable, planted a bomb in the cake. I can't imagine what he secretly prepared.
"I was looking for something similar in color to green tea, and I thought, what if I put wasabi in the middle of the cake?"
"Wasabi!"
"Wow......."
"And in the middle too? It's not just on one side?"
"Yes!"
Honestly, I didn't think he would prepare something ordinary, but wasabi.
We all frowned at the appearance of the wasabi that boasted a terrible taste.
In particular, Chae Eun-gyu, who doesn't like spicy food that much, grabbed Yoo Min-ha's shoulder and shook him.
"Hey, you should've told us this in advance! It really feels like we're being punished!"
"Isn't that better? It applies to all of us!"
"No, you definitely didn't prepare this event just to pick on Si-yoon?"
"How did this happen......."
I definitely expected that things would go wrong during the live broadcast.
I really didn't know that the wasabi bomb would fall on us too.
Song Hyung-bin sighed and went ahead with the process.
"Okay, then let's check out the cakes that unfortunately weren't chosen."
We revealed the other cake candidates one by one.
Among the candidates, the one with the most overwhelming visuals was none other than Ji Yoon-chul's carrot cake.
Of course, carrot cakes are sold in stores, but Ji Yoon-chul put a whole raw carrot on top of his cake.
"Wow, if I had this, I would have had to eat only carrots all day?"
"...... I'm experiencing the life of a rabbit."
"You guys, did you really come out here with a plan?"
"This is a once-a-year opportunity."
Ji Yoon-chul blinked innocently.
"There is a time when he can make fun of Si-yoon hyung legally."
"I think he's always teased me, is it because of my mood?"
"It's because of your mood."
"Wow, Ji Yoon-chul has grown so much! Who did you see to be so sly?"
"Hyung."
"...I raised two tiger cubs."
Maybe the other one is me.
First, let's calm down the noise, we lit the candles and turned off the lights in the filming set.
Then, we sang the birthday song loudly with a cheerful cheer.
"Happy birthday! Happy birthday!"
"Our dear~ Siyoon hyung! Happy birthday!"
"Yeeeaaah!"
"Thank you so much, everyone! Thank you!"
Kang Siyoon stood up, gave a cool greeting, and blew out the candles with all his might.
The moment the candles went out, I could see everyone swallowing their saliva.
The first lucky draw. Who will get the wasabi bomb?
