Nah, for real, they’re just annoying non-contributors lol
-Crap…
-You’re right, but it’s still annoying how you’re saying it…
[But why does Miro feel so unfamiliar…?]
I used to picture her as a girl just playing Romance of the Three Kingdoms in her room… but now she’s completely gone off the rails, damn
-This was always the case, you idiot lol
-Right? lol
-Fact: Miro looked like this before she even started broadcasting
-Maybe I mistook her playful side for something more lol

[At this point, getting a bit scary…]
Directly dating rumors <—– I used to think he wouldn't date and just focus on performing... But these days, who knows... he’s on Instagram and caring for his body… Is he already dating someone?? -This EX was in rumors before, so it's likely lol -Shut up, damn it -He appeared with his boyfriend this time lol -Ah -Yup, he's in the army~ -Ah, lol [Officially] Good looking couple (Moon Chang-sik photoshoot) (Miro concert photos) Just looking at them makes me feel warm -Feel good vibes -Block this idiot -Damn, they do match up -Look at Moon Chang-sik’s body, damn… [Hey you freaking idiots] (Miro stage photo) I hear she's a virgin -Lol;; -That was the case back then~ -Lol -For real...

Seriously, she’s talented in every way -She's just multi-talented -Seeing this makes it clear she’s cut out for showbiz -But the Virtual YouTuber side of Miro is overshadowing it lol -For real lol -What’s terrifying? They all succeeded -For real -It's tough to succeed in even one of those roles lol -That fourth one isn't Miro, you know? These idiots are gonna get sued -It's liable to defamation lol [With such an epic Miro, once the legendary industry...] (Black silhouette photo) Is it you again… -Now I just have to look at the title and her face pops into my mind, it's hilarious lol -What is it -I have to worship her again today... -Miro's market value goes up, and she’s getting reevaluated -If she had jumped in her youth, it’d be totally different -Lol -For real... -May these idiots get their karma -Lol ** “Thanks for the hard work, everyone!” After the festival stage ended. With my body soaking wet, I returned to the waiting room. “Here’s a towel, Soo-hyun!” “Oh, thank you.” “Did you get too wet?” “No, I just got carried away…” It was fine while jumping on stage. But coming into this air-conditioned backstage, it was a bit chilly. “Now you’re a real stage performer.” “Really?” “Yup, you could easily fill in for Hyeon-su next time.” “Oh, anytime you want me!” Instead of Hyeon-su… Well, teasingly bantering with Ah-young, but honestly, I don’t think that’ll happen. I mean, I just saw how phenomenal he performed earlier. “Honestly, I think every time I see you, you’re getting better.” “Me?” “Yeah, every time you spit out a lyric, the crowd goes wild.” I honestly thought it’d only be the girls cheering. But maybe it’s just his pure talent? He’s got waves of excitement from both genders, and I saw it with my own eyes. “Only you, huh?” "Heh." I think I won this time. But from the moment I went shirtless, the crowd was just... No matter what I did, they screamed so loud. It was a fulfilling reaction for my hard work at the gym. Of course... “It’s a bit cold.” Right now, I’m wrapped in a towel after being completely soaked. What is this, I didn’t just come back from the pool. “Isn’t Soo-hyun going to catch a cold?” “Eh, I’ve been working out, so I’m fine.” If it were the old me, I'd worry. But now, I can't imagine catching a cold. Even now, if I dried off completely, I’m still in good shape to hit the stage again. “So what’s next? More performances?” “Hmm, uhmm...” I pondered Ah-young’s question for a moment. Since I’m here, should I catch some more shows? I think there are still a bunch of performances running until the night... “That sounds good, but should we get an early wrap-up?” Since I just got off the stage and am still buzzing... The vibe of the festival is nice, but at this point, I just want to relax with the band members. Plus, the crowds will likely be chaotic after the festival ends. “Really? Then let’s go early?” “Yeah, let’s go eat something delicious.” “O... Will you be covering the bill, Soo-hyun?” “Of course.” Despite being formally contracted, since they helped me out, I’m planning to be generous today... “Whoa~ Sounds like we’re really in for a feast today.” “Prepare your wallet to be emptied.” “Shall we go to a place that sells expensive whiskey?” ...I mean, we did win, but I guess such gatherings should keep it low-key, right? “Manager, let’s hit an all-you-can-eat place.” “There's a great Korean beef place on the way to Seoul.” “Huh?” “Ah, I knew Kang-seok. He knows what’s good.” “Now that I think back, in a country where hierarchy matters, opening your wallet for your elders is…” “Does that mean you’re treating?” “....” I hastily tried to pull the age shield, but Hyeon-su blocked me. I’m not the youngest in this group. It makes me realize I’m in my mid-twenties now. “...Let’s go.” “Alright, let’s move!” “Beef, beef!” Well, anyway... Words do have power. Reluctantly, the after-party spot was decided to be the barbecue restaurant. ** Upon arriving at the barbecue restaurant, the building itself looked very upscale. “Wow, it already looks delicious before we even enter!” “It looks like it's going to be Soo-hyun’s wallet emptying day.” “...You all eat well.” Kang-seok, you rascal...! How could you betray me like this? Of course, it’s not that I’m worried about the money... but the anxiety is a bit unavoidable. No matter how much I earn, I've never been one to spend lavishly. I still have those spending habits ingrained in me. But this time, I decided to indulge and treat generously, heading inside... “We’re with the reservation.” “Oh, right this way, please.” “Manager?” Kang-seok just smoothly headed to the counter to speak and led us to a pre-set reserved table. “...When did you make the reservation?” Did he make it while we were on our way? I don’t think I saw that. “Oh, actually, the agency representative did it for us.” “...Oh.” When did they arrange this? No, more importantly, why didn’t they inform me about it? “Why didn’t you tell me?” “The representative asked to keep it a secret until they arrived.” “...What does that even mean?” Am I the only one who looks ridiculous for hesitating here? Well, still... “Everyone heard that, right? Since Sangshik Entertainment’s representative is treating, order only the expensive stuff.” So, I’m not covering it? So that means free beef, huh? This is seriously making my mouth water. “Really?” “Can we order anything?” “Yes, yes, order anything from expensive beef to drinks. Kang-seok, you drink plenty today too.” Driving isn’t an issue – just grab a substitute driver. Since it’s free, I was planning on eating and drinking lavishly. But then... “Is that real? Soo-hyun, did you say that?” “Then shall we order all the drinks?” “Yeah, let's drink to the point of no return, shall we?” Things seem to be getting out of hand. “Uh, um... how much do you plan to drink?” “Starting with three bottles per person." “Should we get tipsy this time?” ...Wait, they are band members, right? I shouldn't impose the norms of a regular person on their party. I feel like I've been riding this tempo for a while... “Alright, Hyeon-su, you better not hold back today.” “I wasn’t planning to.” “Nice! Does that mean we’ll each order a bottle first?” I seem to have loosened my grip a bit. ...Looks like I'm going to get pretty tipsy this time. But hey, the festival’s over and I have no schedules for tomorrow. “Okay, let's just order everything!” Tonight, I’m planning to drink until I drop!
