Chapter 172:

My heart was pounding as if I was watching the highlight of a thriller movie.

‘Please don’t tell me it’s Lee Hwijin.’

Maybe because I had filmed with him today and sent him back, the worst-case scenario came to my mind first.

If either Hwijin or Naru was the target of the accusation, I would have to throw away all the footage I had filmed with them today.

Well, maybe Naru would be better. His role was not that big, so I could cover it with some editing. But if it was Hwijin, the problem would be much bigger.

‘That guy… He doesn’t seem like that kind of person… But you never know what’s inside someone’s mind, even if you know what’s under the water…’

I hoped that it was not someone I knew, and thought of the guy who had sent me a peaceful picture from Busan.

Among the three of us who knew each other, he was the most likely one. The hints implied by the accusation posts were three.

He had been in a dance club since elementary school.

He made me do errands like preparing costumes and music for the dance talent show, and mocked and bullied me if I didn’t like it.

He became famous for his middle school festival video clip when he appeared on My Idol Stage, and he was popular for his ‘school days memory manipulation’ image.

He was playful and cheerful, and enjoyed popularity, but in reality, he was a jerk who had no basic decency.

At the words ‘manipulation’ and ‘playful’, I felt my heart sink. Was it really Kang Yu-geon? Luckily, I saw the best comment below the attached evidence video.

[- This is ACH. Anyone who listened to his Y Live would know. That’s his voice for sure. Good riddance, he won’t go far??]

[? Who is ACH???]

[? An Yeong]

[? Wow… He didn’t look like that on the show… That’s crazy…]

[? I sent a PDF to his email. Good job]

[? Who cares if you did???? It doesn’t matter if it’s a factual or a false accusation, he’s doomed anyway???]

There was a video attached to the accusation post, which seemed to have been recorded secretly. Neither I nor the other two guys said a word as the video played.

[Crack… Are you trying to screw us over with this kind of thing? Huh… You XX bastard, do you think we look like XX when you snivel? Squeak…]

Someone kicked a chair in anger, and a sobbing cry followed.

The video was 45 minutes long, and the angle was skewed as if the filming phone was hidden somewhere. The face of the perpetrator was not visible. I could only identify that several male students with good physique were surrounding and harassing one person.

Still, most of the comments were sure that the person who kicked the chair was Chanhyung.

‘This is… It’s probably Chanhyung himself.’

I didn’t have a strong impression of him, since he was not someone I interacted with often. But his voice was very thin and high-pitched among the boys, so it stood out. f𝚛𝚎𝚎𝚠𝚎𝔟𝔫𝔬𝔳𝚎l.𝔠o𝔪

If I, who was not a fan, could recognize it, the fans who had heard his voice thousands or tens of thousands of times would have no choice but to admit it.

‘Is it… OK to be relieved that it’s not someone close to me?’

Preparing for the filming meant that this kind of thing happened more than once or twice. I didn’t want to be glad that someone else’s pain was none of my business.

“Tomorrow… I wonder if the rehearsal will be OK.”

The third mission was originally Chanhyung’s comeback stage. Hwijin told me briefly that they had arranged the stage around the members who had been absent for a while.

Yu-geon was still unreachable, so I ruled him out. And surely, Chanhyung was supposed to take that role.

I wondered how they were going to fill the vacant spot of the center and main dancer at Floss’s place. It must have been like a bomb had dropped there by now.

“There’s… another problem…”

Kyunghwa opened the next link with a grim expression and showed it to me.

[BBY First Mission Filming Day Video (+999)]

What the hell was this? Why were there so many comments?

I scrolled down the mouse with a feeling of almost horror.

There was a post with only a video, without any explanation.

“What is this…?”

“You’ll see.”

The video that started with Kyunghwa’s short answer was filmed with a camera that seemed to be hidden in a bag or a sleeve.

[…I can’t.]

[What?]

[I can’t, do, it…]

[What the hell are you talking about? Stop making a fuss over your sprained ankle and go!]

[Crackle…]

[Stop talking nonsense and get up!]

[Damn it! Do you think I don’t want to rest? My feet are killing me from this damn hike… Zzzz… Squeak…]

[What the hell are you doing!]

[How can you hit his face like that!]

[So what!]

[Crackle…]

The sound quality was so bad that there were parts that kept cutting in and out, but the scene where Chanhyung grabbed the collar of Yu-geon, who was crouching down, and punched him was clearly captured.

[- Wow…. Chan-fans have been saying that Yu-geon was holding them back and being a nuisance all this time??? But it was X-chan who did the punching?

[? I don’t know what’s going on, but how did he debut with such a brain that he grabs the collar of a member who is in pain and slumps down and beats him up? My head is ringing right now]

[? Seriously, he should have kept quiet about Yu-geon ruining their activities, but he blew it up like this]

[- This is not about internal leakage or anything, but covering up and moving on from assault, but why are they talking about leakage here? What the hell is this?]

[? (Link) School violence also came out with this. He’s not a one-time hitter. He’s a Floss nuclear puncher class????]

[- Chanhyung, I met you during My Idol and I felt like my life became more lively and sparkling, and I’m so grateful and always thankful for your existence, but this is so shocking. You’re so different from the way I knew you, and I don’t know what to believe. Please give me your position soon.]

[? What do you mean you don’t know?????????? If you cover up school violence and assault, are you human or a brainless Chan-fan worm?]

[? Only Chan-fans didn’t know?? People who were sane already knew since My Idol???? He threw a water bottle at a fan after the first concert, that shows his character]

It was getting worse and worse.

I could figure out what happened by looking at the clues from the top comments and the reactions I had been monitoring.

As Yu-geon’s hiatus dragged on, the Floss fandom and online communities like Celebrity Talk were filled with criticism about his absence.

‘There’s not much time left in the contract, and every group activity is important. What is he doing at this time and what kind of trouble is he causing?’ was the gist of the complaints.

‘Of course, it’s a reasonable… critique.’

And in contrast, Chanhyung, who showed proof of his injury and participated in activities that didn’t require physical movement, received the spotlight.

It should have ended with being proud of the member who was fighting through the pain.

But the online opinion didn’t stop at the first or second verse. To highlight Chanhyung’s active performance despite his injury, they rained insults on Yu-geon.

[Title: WePlanet really takes good care of their members]

[Body]

If he got hurt before or after the first mission shoot, then maybe the accident happened around then… Seeing how Yu-geon hasn’t been seen for weeks, it seems like the company is giving him rest and taking care of him?? I’m so glad he’s with WePlanet

[Comments]

[- While the master of fabrication is lying around somewhere, Chanhyung is still doing his schedule]

[? It must be hard to move around with a cast, I feel so sorry for him ????????]

[? It seems like someone is hiding and making Chanhyung do more schedules than he can handle]

Even if it wasn’t a blatant attack on Yu-geon, if you read a little bit, you could sense the nuance that ‘Yu-geon’ was causing trouble for ‘Chanhyung’ who was pushed into a harsh schedule.

‘Do I have to do this… to this extent…’

He frowned reflexively at the unexpected malice.

The incident was complicated in many ways, but the cause and effect were simple.

Yu-geon’s disappearance caused various complaints within the Floss fandom, and the misunderstanding grew day by day, and the public opinion was very unfavorable.

Then someone who witnessed the assault scene released a video to clear up the misunderstanding.

At the same time, the victim of school violence who saw the video posted the materials he had kept secret for a long time.

That was the process.

‘Yu-geon didn’t really… get hit by Chanhyung and stop his activities.’

He wasn’t at the scene of the assault, but as someone who knew the whole story, it was a rather absurd development.

What… that guy was in a panic state and he probably couldn’t even remember if he got hit.

But anyway… if it gave the victim the courage to expose the past, it was a good thing.

If he looked at this series of events in a positive way, he could see it that way, but there were more than one or two problems.

“Can I post the Floss rehearsal during the day?”

Shouldn’t he do something or explain something right now? If this continued, the whole Floss would be accused of knowing Chanhyung’s assault and forcing Yu-geon to switch, and Yu-geon would run away in protest…, that was the speculation.

He had to bring Yu-geon back from his house and sort out the situation. The rehearsal was not the problem.

“Will this be resolved by the time of the main shoot?”

Yi-jun looked at the screen with a serious expression, just like Kyunghwa.

The main shoot was the day after the rehearsal. It wouldn’t be hard to change the route with one member missing, but it would be a different story if the rest of the members were branded as accomplices.

Sending Floss to the broadcast could be a risk factor.

“Wow… I’ve never seen a Celebrity Talk post with over 5,000 comments.”

Chanhyung’s post was now breaking the record for the most reactions to a Celebrity Talk post and writing a new history.

The company must be trying their best to take down the post, but it is dawn now.

It wasn’t a major portal, and a small site like Celebrity Talk that only had users who were teenagers or interested in idols wouldn’t have contact at this time.

Before the manager came to work in the morning, the issue was spreading like crazy, and the whole marketing team must have been biting their nails watching it.

‘I’m glad we separated the label early, so we won’t be affected.’

Even if Floss dropped out of the rehearsal tomorrow, it wouldn’t hurt us.

Today’s filming of Bravo Solo Life might be risky, but it was certain that Hwijin and Naru were not the central members of the incident, so there would be no problem with the broadcast if the collusion controversy was resolved before the broadcast.

“Let’s just sleep. There’s nothing we can do by watching more, and we’re likely to proceed with the rehearsal as usual, so we have to prepare without any trouble during the day.”

I was worried too, but that didn’t mean we could neglect our duties.

“My heart… is not at ease.”

Kyunghwa sighed deeply, holding a stuffed animal and a cushion in his arms. He wondered why Seumkyeong was here, after finding out his location through the preview broadcast, but I pretended not to know anything.

“The evidence is too clear… It’s right to apologize and withdraw.”

There was only half a year left until the disbandment, and they were having a lot of trouble over there. After Yi-jun’s answer, there was a brief silence, and I went back to my bedroom to sleep.

Of course… I couldn’t sleep. This time, it was a member who had nothing to do with me who was in trouble, but what if… there was someone among our members who had a similar past…?

Of course, the guys I’ve been through so far were not the ones who would go around and bully and play politics.

My head was cluttered with useless thoughts.

‘I should just sleep.’

As I tossed and turned for a long time, the sun rose, and I got up to the sound of a text message on my phone.

I checked the message and lay down on the bed again, feeling empty.
