Idol Game Olympics. (5)

While the participants were busy moving around, a door opened at the back of the audience seats. Idol groups that joined in the afternoon according to the schedule quietly sat down in their seats. There were also idols from large agencies such as MOM, Luna Girls, Sky High, etc.

“Okay, please take your seats!”

“You know the rules, right? You all understood them, right?”

Ian, who sat down in his seat, put on his headset and checked his microphone. He relaxed his hand as it was a light game that didn’t count the win or loss.

‘I hope I get mafia.’

There was a brief introduction of the players before the game started. There were idol members of various nationalities such as Canada, Hong Kong, Taiwan, etc. The most common ones were Japanese members, who were as many as four.

‘Have Japanese members increased lately?’

[They make money if they get Japanese fans. If they have a Japanese member, they get attention in Japan. Anyway, they’re funny. They claim that K-pop’s global success is because of a national project, but they like it when a Japanese person debuts as a Korean idol group.]

When the caster introduced Ian, Ian waved his hand lightly at the camera installed next to his computer.

“Okay, let’s start. Who’s the mafia?”

“Me!”

Aiwon’s Kazuma raised his hand sharply. The caster asked him a sudden question.

“Do you have anyone in mind who you want to kill?”

“I want to kill Ian first.”

“Why?”

“Because he’s too handsome… Annoying? He annoys me.”

There was laughter from the audience.

‘He speaks Korean very well.’

Aiwon’s Kazuma had hardly any foreign accent. He smiled provocatively and winked at the camera.

“How do you feel, Ian?”

“I’ll try to run away hard.”

“Good! Let’s start the game!”

As soon as it started, Kazuma’s character moved around looking for Ian. Ian pressed the arrow keys hard and avoided Kazuma to perform his mission.

“Where are you going?”

“Waaah!”

-Crazyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-So scary

-This version is fun tooㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Carter of Miracle, a Korean-Canadian nationality, screamed. He suggested an extra game to see this reaction. The cast members who watched the participants jump in real time couldn’t stop smiling.

“Oh wow! There’s no one here?”

And the most interesting reaction among them was Kim Joo-young. Kim Joo-young closed the window and looked around while checking the situation.

“Joo-young, your mission isn’t progressing well?”

His character movement was strange because he was afraid of meeting the mafia. Kim Joo-young zigzagged around and screamed when he found someone. The other participants also laughed when they heard his scream.

“Waaah!”

“Hey, Joo-young it’s me.”

“You scared me! Why did you come out from there!”

-Ahㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Reaction honey jamㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

He screamed so loudly that he even lost his voice with a short tongue sound. Ian smiled slyly.

‘I’ll follow Kim Joo-young when I become mafia next time.’

He decided to make entertainment content without any ambition as it was a game with a big purpose of enjoying rather than winning or losing.

“Here’s the restaurant! There’s a restaurant!”

“Run away.”

The other participants also talked a lot as they had the same idea.

“Please! Save me!”

Wang Mimi of Shy Girls, a Hong Konger, screamed at the end of the first round.

“Ah, Kazuma killed all the citizens and the mafia won this round!”

“Let’s start the next game right away!”

Ian tapped his mouse with his finger.

‘I hope I get it…’

<Mafia>

‘Good.’

Ian smiled slyly.

“I’m the mafia. Everyone run away. Especially Kazuma, and Joo-young you I’ll chase you to the end.”

“Ah why are you so scary!”

Kim Joo-young squeaked. It was lucky that the staff adjusted the microphone volume low in advance in case something like this happened. If not, the other participants would have frowned when they heard his scream.

“Oh hello.”

“Yes! Hello?! Ah! Mafia!”

Nanami of Eos let out a short scream and became a soul.

“Please tell me where Juyeong is. I’m taking your tips.”

“Here… He’s here! The lab?”

“No!”

Wang Mimi of Shy Girls shouted Juyeong’s location. Ian headed to the lab through a hole. Juyeong opened the lab door and escaped.

“I finished the mission!”

“Me too! Ah!”

Meanwhile, the other participants completed their missions and ran away from the mafia. Ian stabbed Araya, a Thai member of the girl group Like That, while looking for Juyeong and went through a hole.

“There’s not much time left for the mission… Is there anyone who hasn’t done it?”

“I have two missions left… I’ll try!”

-Yeah! I made up my mind!

-Death flag ON

-Reallyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

He couldn’t be a nuisance to others by not doing his mission while everyone else did. Juyeong stopped running away and bravely performed his mission.

Ian stood behind Juyeong, who was doing his mission, and smirked.

“Ah! Juyeong was finally caught! Look at that smile!”

“He has a devilish smile! He’s not killing him right away, he’s waiting!”

-He’s mocking him so muchㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Juyeong… Run…

Juyeong, who hadn’t noticed Ian yet because he was doing his mission, saw Ian’s face as soon as he lowered the window and bounced his upper body.

“Aaaah!”

“Hi.”

“Go away!”

Juyeong’s character ran away from Ian frantically, but he was stabbed in the end. He struggled so much that his chair rolled back. Juyeong, who was lying down with no strength, screamed so much that he whispered in a hoarse voice.

“I… I’m so tired.”

The Awi members who were watching from the audience clapped and cheered.

The chaotic extra game ended and it was lunchtime. Since it was held without an audience, they didn’t have to prepare lunch boxes for the fans.

“Here you go.”

“Thank you.”

Instead, the agency prepared snacks for the staff. The PD of Agempic was also the PD of music shows and Park Seodam was also selected as the MC of music shows, so it was like a courtesy of saying ‘Please take good care of our kid.’

“You guys don’t have to help us, just eat.”

“It won’t take long.”

The Awi members who helped distribute snacks to the managers sat down. There was no waiting room to accommodate this many people in the stadium. Everyone sat in the audience and had lunch.

The Awi members who had a simple sandwich for lunch either looked at their phones or took a nap.

“By the way, Junseo asked me to introduce you to him earlier and I said I would. Is that okay?”

“Yeah? I don’t mind. He’s the same age as you, right?”

“Yeah.”

Ian drank the rest of his coffee. If it was Junseo of Aiwons… He was famous for his bad acting.

[You and Junseo were linked together a lot. As good and bad examples of idol acting.]

‘That’s right. They compare everything. Do they not write articles if they don’t compare?’

[Why? Comparing is so fun. The click rate is different. The higher the click rate, the more money you make.]

Jin answered shamelessly to Ian’s sniping. Ian frowned.

He didn’t mean it, but it must have been unpleasant for the other party. He had heard before that the parties had a nerve war because of these comparison articles, so he was nervous inside.

Just then, Junseo came up next to Lee Juhyuk.

“Hello. I’m Junseo of Aiwons.”

“Hello. Please speak comfortably. Can I call you hyung?”

“Huh? Uh… Can I?”

“Yes.”

Ian nodded with a smile.

‘Geez, he’s really handsome.’

Junseo swallowed his surprise as he saw Ian’s face up close. He looked bad enough from afar, but he looked amazing up close.

‘What kind of face is glowing?’

He was confident that his face wouldn’t fall behind, but he felt useless in front of Ian.

‘I saw him acting before and he was really good… Even as a man, I admit he’s a great guy.’

Junseo quickly felt his competitive spirit cool down with Ian’s low voice and polite behavior.

“You know I’m rumored to be a bad actor, right? People keep comparing me to you.”

Ian shuddered at Junseo’s blunt remark.

[Wow, what is this, a challenge?]

Jin held the popcorn with an excited face.

“So… Can I ask you something about acting? You’re good at it.”

“Of course.”

[Oh, how boring.]

Jin put down the popcorn with a deflated voice. He looked for another interesting topic and flew to the other idols.

Yeonjun changed his attitude and decided to get along well with Ian. Ian gladly accepted his humble gesture, without being arrogant.

“Wait a minute, Taewoong is good at acting too. Hey, Jo-taewoong!”

“Did you call me? Oh, hello!”

Jo Taewoong joined them with a good-natured smile. They chatted about acting together.

Since the live broadcast was off during lunchtime, the other idols moved around freely and exchanged numbers with each other.

Because their managers were watching, they mostly talked to the same sex.

“Can I join you? Actually, I’m not very good at acting…”

Yeonjun smiled awkwardly at Jo Taewoong and Ian’s deep discussion. He thought he did well not to be prideful. He learned a lot from their short conversation.

Jo Taewoong also looked surprised at Yeonjun’s honesty. He had heard a lot of rumors like ‘He got the lead role with his face, even though he has no talent.’ But he realized that rumors were not trustworthy, and people had to meet in person to know them.

“Hey, it’s okay. No one is good from the start.”

“Right, do you have any drama coming up? It would be good to practice with a script.”

“Not yet… I have a few scripts that came in.”

The three of them became friends by talking about not only acting but also trivial things until lunchtime was over. In the end, they exchanged numbers and the others who were watching them also gathered around them.

‘It looks fun.’

Kim Juyeon of Luna Girls was one of them who watched the scene from afar. She stared at Ian’s face and turned away with a regretful expression.

‘I wanted to get his number too.’

She had been warned by her manager not to get close to any male idol group after her dating scandal with Ian.

Luna Girls were at the peak of their popularity. It was better to quickly end it than to lose their popularity because of another dating scandal.

‘I guess I should just give up.’

She finally gave up on him.

***

“Everyone! Did you enjoy your meal?”

“Let’s start the third game. It’s ‘Rush Rider’!”

The screen showed the ‘Rush Rider’ player list. Kim Hyun and Jo Taewoong were playing above.

In MyKit, Park Seon also played, but it was not random but the PD’s choice.

‘MyKit Seon-ssi? Come here.’

‘You did well in the game earlier, can you do as I say?’

The PD was impressed by Park Seon’s temper tantrum in ‘Fall Humans’ and wanted more entertaining content.

Park Seon also agreed to the PD’s offer with his ambition for more screen time, and followed the PD’s instructions to throw tantrums without hesitation.

“Ah! Park Seon is throwing a tantrum again! He’s interfering with their career!”

“This game is not a blocker!”

-Wow tantrum ㄹㅈㄷ

-Isn’t that crossing the line?

-Isn’t that breaking the rules?

-I think it’s funnyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Ah no fun ㅡㅡ How about some fair play?

-It’s more fun when there are people like thisㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

And contrary to Park Seon’s expectation, negative opinions started to come out.
