A Failed Idol’s Rise to Bottom

Chapter 33

In the evening, a total of six chickens were ordered, including chicken breast and chicken leg, for Han-Sol, who likes chicken and Su-Gyeom, who likes moist chicken.

In terms of figures, it was 1.2 chickens per person, but in reality, Tae-Won ate up to the amount that Su-Gyeom could not eat.

Su-Gyeom, who prefers seasoned chicken to fried chicken, lit up when he saw a piece of chicken seasoned with Cheongyang red pepper and mayonnaise.

His mouth was drooling from the appetizing appearance. As he was about to open his mouth to take a bite of steaming chicken.

So, what do you want to say?

Oh.

Su-Gyeom was in a situation where he said he had something to tell the members before eating the chicken. Well, he forgot what to say because he was fascinated by chicken.

Su-Gyeom, who was conscious of Lee-Gyeoms question, looked at the chicken with a regretful eye and tried to put it down on the plate.

Then, Tae-Won said, Eat it.

Its okay, you can eat and talk at the same time he said to soothe Su-Gyeom.Su-gyeom, who was encouraged by his actions, took a big bite of the boneless leg this time.

Ugh!

Speak Korean.

Its delicious!

Su-Gyeom shouted resentfully at Lee Gyeom. He felt sad for a while, and then quickly became happy with the taste of chicken in his mouth.

Lee-Gyeom, who saw his happy expression, shook his head and murmured.

Anyway, its simple.

What? They say they dont touch dogs when eating, but what kind of human being would argue when a Korean is eating chicken?

Lee-Gyeom closed his mouth when he realized who Su-gyeoms target is. Anyway, he was a guy who couldnt please him even if he wanted to.

Anyway, what I was going to say is! I was wondering what it would be like to make our comeback song Wish flower.

Youre saying to do it as the main song, not the b-track, right?

Yoo-Chan seemed surprised, but Su-gyeom seemed to like his idea. His expression was quite bright. Of course, not only that, but Han-Sol also nodded satisfactorily.

I agree! I totally agree.

Han-Sol actively agreed with Su-Gyeoms opinion. Su-gyeom, who was encouraged by the reaction, decidedly took the momentum.

I thought it would be nice to release a digital album and perform several times when we make a comeback. I think its going to be early spring, so I think itll fit well

Well, it doesnt matter to me, but I dont know what other people would think.

I got an ok from the director.

Huh? When?

Su-Gyeom said that he got permission from the director to ease Tae-Wons worries, but Tae-Wons expression darkened for a moment.Though he quickly returned to his usual self.

Su-gyeom answered his question while tilting his head at his unexpected response.

I sneaked out earlier.

Alone?

Sure. I persuaded the director well myself.

Why are you going there alone?

Oh Just Its not like I cant go alone, right??

Su-Gyeom was quite embarrassed by his question. He expected him to praise him for persuading the director alone, but his response was far from praise. On the contrary, it was like he made a mistake.

No.

Eh? No?

Oh, no.

Su-Gyeom asked back, surprised by Tae-Wons firm answer. Nevertheless, the same answer came back.Surprised, Su-gGeom carefully opened his mouth, wondering if Tae-Won was trying to tease him or if it was real.

Why?

The director doesnt like it.

Oh, really? He didnt tell that to me! Did he really say that?

Yes.

It was a rather slow answer by half a beat, but he definitely said Uh-huh.

Tae-Won then gulped down Sprite.Su-Gyeom still couldnt tell if it was real or not, so he narrowed his eyes and looked at Tae-won.

Its real.

Really? I had no idea because he didnt tell me that. Thanks for letting me know.

This time, even Yoo-chan helped out. Only then could Su-Gyeom fully believe Tae-Wons words. He wondered when the director talked about it without him, but it seemed that Tae-Wons words were since Yoo-Chan, not just anyone else, agreed with him.

What? Su-Gyeom. Why cant you trust me when I say it, but when Yoo-Chan say it, you believe it right away?

Uh I think youre going to mess around, but not Yoo-Chan.

Wow, thats too much.

But its true.

When asked by Tae-Won, Su-Gyeom replied with a harmless expression. He didnt mean to accuse Tae-Won of being good at lying. However, Tae-Won was so playful and Yoo-Chan was serious compared to him trying to make fun of Su-Gyeom. Therefore, of course, among the two, he had no choice but to trust Yoo Chans words more.

What have I done?

You deserve it. Anyway, thats how I feel.

To Tae-Won, who seemed to think it is unfair, Su-Gyeom just shrugged off his shoulders and picked up a new piece of chicken with chopsticks.

Lee-Gyeom, what do you think about releasing a digital single with wish flower?

It doesnt matter much. I like that song.

Right! I think so, too.

Su-Gyeom responded excitedly to Lee-Gyeoms answer.Although Lee-Gyeom may not have a memory of making a wish in the snowflake together, Su-Gyeom became nostalgic enough just by his own memory.

Su-Gyeom would have been disappointed if the person who made such a vague memory together had a different opinion than him.

Then Ill tell the director.

No, Ill just do it.

Wouldnt it be better for me to do it because Im the one who suggested it?

Su-Gyeom carefully expressed his opinion at Lee-Gyeoms words. Of course, its much more comfortable for Lee-Gyeom to tell him. He is a good person who can relieve the hassle.

I had to go to the director anyway.

Oh, really? Then Are you going alone? Then do you want me to come with you?

Oh?

Su-Gyeoms eyes narrowed because of his reaction as if he were embarrassed. It was because he could hardly understand his reaction.

I heard the director told us not to come alone. If you dont have anyone to go with, Ill go with you.

Im going to go with Tae-Won.

Right, Tae-won?

Oh, yeah. I did.

When asked by Lee-Gyeom, Tae-Won shook his head. At that moment, their eyes exchanged signals with each other, but Su-Gyeom did not notice the silent conversation between the two because half of his mind was focused on chicken.

Okay, then youll be fine.

Only then did Su-Gyeom look satisfied. Of course, there was still a thought in the corner of his mind, Shouldnt I still go and tell him? but there was no reason to insist on Lee-Gyeoms offer to do something annoying for him.

Su-gyeom picked up a piece of chicken and took a full bite. The delicious chicken was already more delicious because he thought he had saved the hassle.

***

Thanks to Su-Gyeoms claim, the song for the first digital single was eventually chosen as the wish flower. Naturally, there was opposition from the working-level staff, but thanks to Seo-Wooks quick arrangement, the opposition from the working-level staff did not even reach U-PITEs ears.

Thanks to this, Su-Gyeom was very satisfied that things went smoothly according to his opinion without knowing Seo-Wooks efforts.Su-Gyeom, who received the part distribution, has been listening to his part for an hour.

Since he have memories of his past life, he didnt have to listen to his part hard because he could already sing it in his sleep.

However, Su-Gyeom was just happy because the song itself was good, and that he could sing this song to more people.No matter how good the songs on the regular album were, they were not the title songs, and it was difficult to get a response from the general public unless they were on stage.

Su-Gyeom knew about this, so he insisted on Wish Flower as a digital single song.In the end, it turned out as he wanted, so he was naturally satisfied.It was time to focus on the earphones in his ear and play his part again, when he heard someone knocking on the door.

I was confused at first but according to this chapter, the part where Lee-Gyeom and Su-Gyeom made a wish happened in their past life so Lee-Gyeom is not aware of it. It is not specify where the flashback started in Ch32 so even I am not aware. Thanks for Allie and SadieWoods for the Ko-Fi
