Chapter 277: Side Story. Bubble Pop One-Day Free Trial
≫ Je-ho
Im up
≫ Je-ho
I woke up
≫ Je-ho
Ah this isnt workign
≫ Je-ho
Gotta put on my glasses
≫ Je-ho
Put them on
≫ Je-ho
I was trying to write that I woke up
≫ Je-ho
But I didn't have my glasses on
≫ Je-ho
You're telling me to get LASIK?
≫ Je-ho
Is it convenient?
≫ Je-ho
There might be side effects?
≫ Je-ho
I'll ask Kim I-wol later
≫ Je-ho
He'd probably know
≫ Je-ho
Not that he got LASIK
≫ Je-ho
Just that he has a lot of random knowledge
≫ Je-ho
Sometimes I overhear him talking with Lee Cheong-hyeon and I have no idea what they're saying
≫ Je-ho
Do I feel left out?
≫ Je-ho
As long as they're having fun, it's fine
≫ Je-ho
Am I tired because I slept late?
≫ Je-ho
I didn't sleep that late. I ate cake, worked out, and went straight to bed
≫ Je-ho
Lee Cheong-hyeon hasn't woken up yet, so he must be tired
≫ Je-ho
Kim I-wol isn't in his bed
≫ Je-ho
So he probably went to cook breakfast
≫ Je-ho
None of us set alarms today
≫ Je-ho
Since no one has to go to school
≫ Je-ho
The Music Grand Festival ran late, so we agreed to sleep in a bit before heading to practice
≫ Je-ho
Lately, we've only been getting like three hours of sleep a day?
≫ Je-ho
Why did Kim I-wol wake up so early?
≫ Je-ho
He just wakes up when it's time, even without an alarm
≫ Je-ho
Maybe it's a habit
≫ Je-ho
I think I'm kind of the same, but anyway
≫ Je-ho
Oh right
≫ Je-ho
I have something to ask
≫ Je-ho
Who were the ones telling Choi Je-ho to "button up"?
≫ Je-ho
I bet they're in here
≫ Je-ho
"Choi Je-ho, button up"
≫ Je-ho
Were you satisfied seeing me all covered up?
≫ Je-ho
Is it better to stay covered?
≫ Je-ho
No?
≫ Je-ho
Then why did you tell me to button up yesterday?
≫ Je-ho
Ah
≫ Je-ho
Because it was cold?
≫ Je-ho
Because it was too revealing?
≫ Je-ho
Because you don't want other people seeing?
≫ Je-ho
What is it? Who's right?
≫ Je-ho
You're telling me to do whatever I want?
≫ Je-ho
Then I'll just do what the Sparklers want
≫ Je-ho
The people I see the most are Sparklers
≫ Je-ho
Shouldn't I do what makes the Sparklers happy?
≫ Je-ho
Kim I-wol is telling me to come set the table
≫ Je-ho
I'll come back after I eat
≫ Je-ho
Make sure you eat breakfast too
≫ I-wol
I just finished breakfast! Have you all eaten? We ate with some side dishes Seong-bin’s mother made for us.
≫ I-wol
Thank you for cheering for us so we could win the Rookie Award and for the congratulations.
I said it yesterday, but I wanted to say it again. I’ll work even harder next year!
≫ I-wol
"Enjoy yourself and take it easy..." Thank you. The members and I are all enjoying ourselves, so don't worry!
≫ I-wol
There are a lot of posts asking what Cheong-hyeon and I usually talk about. Je-ho mentioned it on Bubble Pop, haha.
≫ I-wol
Cheong-hyeon and I talk about songs the most. Or, if Cheong-hyeon reads a book and finds an impressive part, he tells me about it. Sometimes I understand it right away, and sometimes I don't. Occasionally he reads books that look like they’d be in a non-fiction exam...
≫ I-wol
He said that back in the day, when he and Gi-yeon went to comic book cafes, Gi-yeon would read manga and Cheong-hyeon would read novels.
≫ I-wol
The book I read most recently...
≫ I-wol
Kingdom Cafeteria Another.
≫ I-wol
It’s not that I took a long time to reply because I was embarrassed; I went to search the title to make sure I got it right!
≫ I-wol
I haven't been able to read the next volume because I've been busy preparing for the comeback and the year-end stages. Gi-yeon said it gets really interesting starting from Volume 5—is that true? I think it's plenty of fun already.
≫ I-wol
You were surprised because the conversation suddenly cut off, right? I'm sorry.
≫ I-wol
I heard the sound of dishes breaking, so I ran to the kitchen, but nothing happened. It was just the sound of Je-ho doing the dishes. I honestly don't know how he washes them to make that kind of noise...
≫ I-wol
I'm not just being harsh on Je-ho! How should I explain this?
≫ I-wol
Voice Message 01:00
≫ I-wol
I ask for your objective judgment.
≫ I-wol
Thank you. As I thought, I wasn't the one in the wrong.
≫ I-wol
You're curious about what the kids said in the background?
Cheong-hyeon: "With that much noise, shouldn't the plates normally be broken?"
Gi-yeon: "They're not broken? Look closely. There might be cracks."
Cheong-hyeon: "No, they're fine."
Seong-bin: "Guys, if it sounds like a plate broke, you should ask if Hyung's hands are okay first."
It was a conversation like that!
≫ I-wol
Is it too much that I even type out the commas...?
≫ I-wol
I'm glad if it's not!
≫ I-wol
I think I have to go now for practice. I'll contact you again this evening. Thank you for talking with me since early this morning.
≫ I-wol
I hope you have a great day. They say it's very cold, so please dress warmly!
≫ Jue
Hi~
≫ Jue
I'm a bit late today, right?
≫ Jue
I'm sorry
≫ Jue
It's because I had to leave early for practice
≫ Jue
Why did I leave early?
≫ Jue
It's a secret :)
≫ Jue
It's break time now, so I'm sending messages
≫ Jue
Today is just vocal practice, so we aren't dancing
≫ Jue
That's why I'm still in good shape, haha
≫ Jue
It's strange... I never skip a workout and I work hard, but I'm always the first one to get tired
≫ Jue
Is it because I don't exercise enough?
≫ Jue
The Spark average is just high?
≫ Jue
True, the members really have great stamina
≫ Jue
One night, Je-ho Hyung and I-wol Hyung said they felt stiff and went to play basketball for two hours
≫ Jue
I could never do that
≫ Jue
I'd probably faint
≫ Jue
Who has the most muscle?
≫ Jue
Je-ho Hyung has the highest skeletal muscle mass, and Gi-yeon has the lowest body fat percentage
≫ Jue
Cheong-hyeon...
≫ Jue
He said he got caught by I-wol Hyung while eating a late-night snack recently
≫ Jue
But he said Hyung let him off the hook
≫ Jue
He said it was okay because he's repaying him with results
≫ Jue
What results?
≫ Jue
His height, haha
≫ Jue
I wish I could grow a little more too
≫ Jue
Since all the Hyungs are so tall
≫ Jue
The younger ones look so tiny
≫ Jue
Well, we actually are tiny...
≫ Jue
How tall do I want to be?
≫ Jue
185!
≫ Jue
Then I'd be right in the middle of Je-ho Hyung and I-wol Hyung, right?
≫ Jue
But I don't think it'll happen...
≫ Jue
For now, I'll try working out harder
≫ Jue
And getting lots of sleep!
≫ Jue
Break's over~ See you again later~
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
What are you having for lunch?
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
I'm having a cube steak bowl!
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
The reason I was dieting until yesterday was for the Music Grand Festival... heh
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
I managed myself hard to look cool, and I felt so proud because you all loved it so much
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
As a self-celebration, we all ate whatever we wanted today!
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Yesterday, the minor line only stayed until Part 1 of the Music Grand Festival, right?
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
When I got back to the dorm and watched the broadcast, the Hyungs' heads were seriously towering over everyone
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
I cracked up lolololol
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
We don't need telephone poles around the UA building. We can just stand the Hyungs up there
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Right, I told you there was something I wanted to say recently but forgot
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
I remembered it
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
I thought my saved name, "Cute Pretty Visually," was just a set nickname
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
But originally, it was a set: Visual + Jewelry + Lee Cheong-hyeon = "Cute Pretty Visually Cheong-hyeon"
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
It's so uselessly detailed
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
What on earth was Hyung thinking when he gave us those nicknames?
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Come to think of it, Hyung is the only one without a nickname
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Let's give him one
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Are they all bad?
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
This is bad. I've found the first thing in Lee Cheong-hyeon's life that he's not good at
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Since it's come to this, we have to think of a nickname with our combined brains—50 from me, 50 from you, for a total of 100
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Actually, I'll think of it on my own
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
I'm a little jealous of you passionately coming up with a nickname for Hyung
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Whenever you talk to me, you always say you lost to I-wol Hyung's fan-girling and just say the same things he does
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Give me a new one too
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
See, you're saying "Cute Pretty Visually" fits perfectly again
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
"Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange"?
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Got it, I'll go change it to that!
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
I changed it
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
It looks pretty impressive, doesn't it?
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Today's market price is... free!
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
[[IMG_1]]
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Come get your physical assets~
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Who was it
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Who snitched to I-wol Hyung that I changed my Bubble Pop nickname
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Hyung is asking if his nickname was really that bad
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
What am I supposed to say? lolololololol
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Change it back quickly?
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Then when do I get to use this nickname? T_T
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Fine. In exchange, when you post my photos, you have to use the tag #Sparkler_Exclusive_Gold_Exchange
≫ Sparkler Exclusive Gold Exchange
Promise!
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
The exchange is closed, customer
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Please use us again next time
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
I'll bring a special offer soon
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
lololol
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
I'm done eating too... look at the timing
≫ Cute Pretty Visually
Watch out for icy roads! I think I'll be working late today, so go to sleep first! Thanks for eating with me ♥
≫ Gi-yeon
[[IMG_2]]
≫ Gi-yeon
This is my practice outfit for today.
≫ Gi-yeon
The pants are nice, right?
≫ Gi-yeon
Since it's a day without dance practice, I wore something with a nice fit for once.
≫ Gi-yeon
Today's practice teacher was Seong-bin Hyung.
≫ Gi-yeon
How was Teacher Seong-bin's class?
≫ Gi-yeon
The teacher is kind and the lecture is easy. Five stars.
≫ Gi-yeon
Ju-woo Hyung's class...
≫ Gi-yeon
The teacher is kind, but I can't understand about half of the lecture.
≫ Gi-yeon
Three stars.
≫ Gi-yeon
Please keep it a secret from Ju-woo Hyung...!
≫ Gi-yeon
Ju-woo Hyung's way of speaking is a bit similar to Je-ho Hyung's.
≫ Gi-yeon
There's a part of him that relies on "feeling" when explaining something.
≫ Gi-yeon
But it's not the fault of the person explaining.
≫ Gi-yeon
I'm the sinner for not understanding...
≫ Gi-yeon
You know I'm joking, right?
≫ Gi-yeon
I-wol Hyung and Lee Cheong-hyeon have a different vibe.
≫ Gi-yeon
They explain things well, but they're Spartan.
≫ Gi-yeon
They're like, "You can't do this? How is that possible?" or "You can't do this? It's over. Everything is wrong."
≫ Gi-yeon
They're extreme.
≫ Gi-yeon
Back when we were early trainees, I thought we were all normal, but I don't think so anymore.
≫ Gi-yeon
Everyone is such a character.
≫ Gi-yeon
Doesn't Seong-bin Hyung seem unique when you see him up close too?
≫ Gi-yeon
I should stop here.
≫ Gi-yeon
Earlier, Lee Cheong-hyeon got caught as soon as he changed his Bubble Pop nickname.
≫ Gi-yeon
I don't know when I'll get caught either, so I'll stop.
≫ Gi-yeon
You'll keep it a secret?
≫ Gi-yeon
Really?
≫ Gi-yeon
No betraying me.
≫ Gi-yeon
Still, I think our member composition is really good.
≫ Gi-yeon
The part distribution is clear.
≫ Gi-yeon
Seong-bin Hyung and Ju-woo Hyung handle the vocals,
≫ Gi-yeon
And since Je-ho Hyung and I are in charge of choreography,
≫ Gi-yeon
I-wol Hyung and Lee Cheong-hyeon lead during recording.
≫ Gi-yeon
Just based on how they usually talk, you'd think I-wol Hyung would be intuitive and Lee Cheong-hyeon would pursue precision.
≫ Gi-yeon
But in reality, it's the opposite.
≫ Gi-yeon
Lee Cheong-hyeon is the type to say, "Kang Gyeon, try to transition into the high notes more smoothly~"
≫ Gi-yeon
While I-wol Hyung is like, "Gi-yeon, your pitch is dropping. Let's raise the end by a semitone."
≫ Gi-yeon
Both I-wol Hyung and Lee Cheong-hyeon have perfect pitch, so they're incredibly sensitive to intonation.
≫ Gi-yeon
That's why we set the standard so high that we barely need any pitch correction when recording.
≫ Gi-yeon
But I-wol Hyung even records his own parts multiple times.
≫ Gi-yeon
So when I see Ju-woo Hyung, it's amazing.
≫ Gi-yeon
Next time I take Teacher Ju-woo's class, I'll try to learn diligently.
≫ Gi-yeon
It's already gotten quite dark outside. Get home safely!
≫ Seong-bin
What were you doing? It's getting quite late.
≫ Seong-bin
I'm not disturbing you, am I?
≫ Seong-bin
That's a relief, haha. I just got back to the dorm.
≫ Seong-bin
I'm not tired! I'm wide awake.
≫ Seong-bin
Right now, I'm waiting for my turn to wash up.
≫ Seong-bin
Today's shower order is Ju-woo > Me > I-wol Hyung > Cheong-hyeon > Gi-yeon > Je-ho Hyung!
≫ Seong-bin
Ju-woo and I have to go to the office early tomorrow, so the members were considerate.
≫ Seong-bin
I-wol Hyung and Cheong-hyeon also said they have work to do tonight,
≫ Seong-bin
So Je-ho Hyung and Gi-yeon yielded their turns.
≫ Seong-bin
Rather than having a fixed order, we usually adjust based on the situation.
≫ Seong-bin
The order for getting makeup done changes every time too, haha.
≫ Seong-bin
Yesterday, Ju-woo washed first, then Cheong-hyeon, Gi-yeon, and then me!
≫ Seong-bin
Cheong-hyeon's makeup was really heavy lol, so it took forever to take it off T_T
≫ Seong-bin
Thinking that only Cheong-hyeon and Gi-yeon will be coming home early during next year's Music Grand Festival makes my heart feel a bit complicated.
≫ Seong-bin
Though it's nice that I'll be able to stay until the ending with the Hyungs.
≫ Seong-bin
What do I want to do first when I become an adult?
≫ Seong-bin
Hmm...
≫ Seong-bin
I can't think of the very first thing right now, but we all went to see the sunrise together at the beginning of this year.
≫ Seong-bin
When I become an adult, I want to go see the sunrise again and make a wish.
≫ Seong-bin
The wish I made back then has already come true, so I want to make a new one to celebrate becoming an adult.
≫ Seong-bin
What that wish was is a secret, haha.
≫ Seong-bin
You're sad that there's a secret between us?
≫ Seong-bin
I guess that's true.
≫ Seong-bin
I wished that all our members could get along and have a good year.
≫ Seong-bin
We really spent the year cherishing one another.
≫ Seong-bin
Next time we go, I want to wish that we can continue to live happily ever after.
≫ Seong-bin
Though we won't be able to go on January 1st like this year...!
≫ Seong-bin
When you go to see the sunrise, you have to dress warmly.
≫ Seong-bin
If it weren't for I-wol Hyung, we would have frozen.
≫ Seong-bin
Oh, Ju-woo is out.
≫ Seong-bin
I'm going to go wash up now!
≫ Seong-bin
If I take too long, the other members will have to wait...!
≫ Seong-bin
It'll be bedtime by the time I'm done.
≫ Seong-bin
I'll contact you again tomorrow morning.
≫ Seong-bin
Goodnight. Sweet dreams!
