Chapter 387 - 387

Chapter 387

"Hey, you, come here. Where on earth did you learn such a savage dismantling show? Huh?"

"Ah, ah! Wait a minute! Stop pulling my ear, Si-yoon!"

"I didn't tell you over the phone to do that!"

I thought I'd hear something.

While everyone was gathered in the living room watching the first episode of , Kang Si-yoon saw my hot mackerel cleaning scene and immediately started retaliating.

If it were normal, I would be in charge of this kind of physical intimidation, but unfortunately, this time, I had no way to protest, so I ended up getting hit in return.

Kang Si-yoon kept tugging at my earlobes and nagging me like a storm.

"What's the point of telling you over the phone? You're going to do it anyway."

"No, listen to me. Of course, at first I tried to do as you told me. But the bone in the head was stronger than I thought, so the knife couldn't go in properly. That's why—"

"So the method that came to mind was to just tear it off with your hands?"

"...That's right."

The other members who were listening to our conversation burst out laughing at my tired answer.

Yoo Min-ha, who had been laughing happily for a while, thankfully took my side while wiping his eyes with his fingers.

"But he didn't use his hands from the beginning, Si-yoon hyung. Honestly, if it was the old Karis hyung, he wouldn't have even thought of calling you and would've just ripped it off right away?"

"That's true. Or maybe he would've just come with an axe because it wouldn't cut the bone."

"That's right. How much have you improved since then?"

"...What kind of image do you have of me in your heads?"

I appreciate the cover, but.

I wonder if this is really a cover.

Isn't this like hitting me with a shield?

Song Hyung-bin also laughed heartily at Yoo Min-ha's words and took my side.

"But this is a entertainment show Karis. If you cook too perfectly, it's not Karis. You have to show this kind of charm for everyone to enjoy. Who else but Karis would do something like that?"

"Haha......."

I let out a relieved laugh as I watched Owen and me on the TV screen.

I'm grateful that you said that was my charm after seeing that scene, hyung.

The problem is that an even more embarrassing scene will come out soon.

"Huh? What are you putting on?"

When a scene appeared where we seemed to be putting something on our faces, Heo Yu-bin immediately stretched his neck forward and looked closely at the screen.

The camera also zoomed in on our faces lying side by side, and when the pink and white character mask packs were finally revealed to the world, everyone burst into laughter again.

"Can't someone capture that with their phone? I want to use that as my profile picture right now."

"...I'll save it when I see it again later, hyung."

"Yoon-chul, send it to me later!"

"I'll just upload it to our group chat."

"Everyone. Stop it! Why are you trying to upload someone else's face as your profile picture!"

"Hey, since it's come to this, change your StarUs profile picture to that too. What do you think?"

"No!"

I strongly rejected Kang Si-yoon's words.

Kang Si-yoon sighed as if he was disappointed.

"I thought it would be nice if all seven of us changed our profile pictures to the same one for an event. Seleves would probably find it hilarious. It's such a pity."

"You're right, it's a pity!"

"But wouldn't it be funny if we all had the same profile pictures except for Karis hyung?"

"Well, that's fine too. Hey, anyway, that's how it is!"

"...Is my portrait right useless?"

At my empty words, Ji Yoon-chul nodded calmly.

"...Hyung's face belongs to all of us."

"You're so confident that I can't even refute you."

"Thank goodness."

From the fact that I, who is usually far from cute, wore a character mask pack, a very precious scene was created, and Owen and I even had an in-depth web novel discussion in that state.

[Owen: Oh, hyung-nim. I remembered something I had forgotten.]

[Karis: Something you had forgotten?]

[Owen: Yes. You mentioned the web novels when you appeared on before. I have been diligently reading the works you recommended. In particular, was the most fun. The suspense that kept you confused about whether Gestalt would kill Hestia or not was top-notch. Hestia, who was suspicious of his identity, joined hands with people from high society....... (omitted)]

[▷▶▷▶]

[(Web novel discussion that never gets cold even when played at 2x speed)]

[You guys, don't you sleep...... ?]

Kang Si-yoon looked at me with a dumbfounded expression.

"Even Owen reads web novels? How on earth did you do sales?"

"I've never done any sales. He just found it interesting on his own."

"How come idols from overseas like web novels more than Korean idols? I think there's something wrong with this."

Chae Eun-gyu asked me with a serious face after hearing Kang Si-yoon's words.

"But is it easier to learn the language of this country if you actually read books?"

"Well, it definitely helps. There are idioms and various expressions that you can't learn from regular vocabulary books. In my case, I learned a lot of new words by looking them up one by one."

"So you're saying that if we want to learn English, reading books in English would be effective? I really want to study English properly this year."

"I think it would be effective if you study grammar books or reading comprehension-related workbooks and read books in between."

Thanks to Chae Eun-gyu, our conversation topic suddenly changed from my web novel addiction to how I study foreign languages.

I could barely catch my breath, but I couldn't help but be surprised by the editing skills of the production team of .

Of course, Owen and I created many very funny scenes on our own.

However, I didn't know that they would capture and edit all of this.

They were broadcasting every single scene without missing a single one.

The members' enthusiasm, which had died down a little, was rekindled when the trailer for the second episode, which will air next week, came out.

[(Cheerful mothers)]

[???: The sweet potato field will soon become a runway!]

[☆Sexy☆Audacious☆ Returns in One Day]

[(And the next day.......)

[Karis: Today, I will definitely succeed.]

[(Two young men holding fishing rods walking out with magnificent BGM)]

[Who will be the winner of the final fishing competition?]

"Hyung, did you do a weird runway pose when you went to dig sweet potatoes...?"

Yoo Min-ha said to me with a look that said, "No way."

When I didn't answer and just kept silent, Yoo Min-ha laughed and patted my shoulder hard.

"Hyung, what I said was right? People tend to imitate things they see in everyday life! Just like I imitate things I see in anime, you imitate things you see in novels."

"...That wasn't my intention, but I got my inspiration from there."

That's true.

Even when I was proudly walking with my fishing rod, or when I was strutting around the sweet potato field in my overalls and toshi, I always thought that I was in the Grand Quest Saga and about to depart for an important battle.

It's true that I was influenced by things that were familiar to me.

But I just wanted to make it as funny as possible because it was entertainment.

"No way. Yoon Chul-ah, when you upload the Karis Mask Pack, can you also record the video of him walking with all his might?"

"...Both the one that came out today and the one that comes out next week?"

"Yeah. I'll cross-edit it and keep it for myself."

"Please send it to me too."

"Of course."

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about!"

It wasn't enough to stop Kang Si-yoon, who had already entered a state of subtle madness.

He didn't stop at changing all of StarUs' profile pictures to my mask pack pictures, and now he's cross-editing my walking scenes.

Please don't waste your extraordinary and creative brain on something like this.

I raised my hands, half-giving up.

'...Well, is this proof that it went my way?'

Contrary to my usual image, I intentionally created scenes that were extremely disappointing.

To make people laugh more properly since I'm going on a variety show alone without the support of the members.

To make the fans who watch the show enjoy it.

If Kang Si-yoon reacts like this, I think I can tell what the fans are writing right now without having to check my phone.

***

Just looking at the first episode of , they saw various sides of Karis that they hadn't seen before.

And it didn't stop there. In the second episode trailer, Owen and Karis showed off even more amazing chemistry, raising fans' expectations.

The episode that aired next week showed the growth of the two idols and their victory in the final showdown in Yokjido.

-(Video) Usually, foreigners are given hanbok, but they are given body pants, a farmer's hat, and a hoe.

└In fact, this is the true Korean traditional look.

└It's hard to believe that a prince who has lived in a palace his whole life is digging sweet potatoes in a faraway foreign country.

└Leave him alone, he said he'll do it.

└He's even good at his job. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-(Video) Today's killing point: "The rest will be taken care of by the machine, so take a break~"

└ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The era of automation

└FR It's legendary that they use the machine right away because it seems like they're already done all the parts they need to.

└There's definitely a vibe that comes from experience.

The fans couldn't even imagine how they would film a variety show while digging sweet potatoes, but everyone was amazed at the fact that they could show off such a big presence with simple fashion.

Then, on the first day, the two young men who had been completely defeated by being toyed with in the sea of Yokjido headed to the sea dreaming of revenge.

Karis showed off his desperate appearance by even bringing out a trap as his secret weapon.

And the result was.

- (Video) There's an idol who's good at catching shrimp

└Isn't that rock bream really expensive?

└My dad was fishing, and when I showed him this, he screamed that it was ridiculous, but now

└It looks cute, like a tropical fish

└That crab must taste good. You guys should taste the taste of soy sauce marinated crab too

The two succeeded in achieving incredible results, to the point where the memory of catching seaweed instead of fish on the first day was in vain.

The sight of them hugging each other and being happy as if they had won the grand prize at an end-of-year awards ceremony naturally brought smiles to the faces of Seleste and Jerene's fans.

They knew that the two idols were close, but they didn't know that they were this special.

However, through , they learned that the relationship between the two was really extraordinary, and that they were the best relationship in which they came all the way to a foreign land to support and comfort each other as they pursued their dreams.

Not only the fans of the two groups, but also the general public who had been watching from the beginning enjoyed the broadcast because of the humane and funny appearances that Karis and Owen showed.

They thought that the good energy would continue within Seleste just like the happy atmosphere of the fans.

In reality, things were going a little differently.
