[What’s going on????????]
[???????????]
The chat window filled with question marks seeing that scene.
Onseol now properly embraced the whining Ka Jerim like hugging a baby and patted him, and around the time Ka Jerim’s breathing became even, he realized that Ma Doun was looking at something with an anxious expression.
“What is it, Ma Doun?”
“Huh? Huh? It’s nothing.”
Only then did Seon Hobeom’s face also turn pale at the same time as if remembering the crime he had committed.
Ma Doun hurriedly tried to cover the broadcasting phone with his body, but Onseol’s instincts had already kicked in frighteningly fast, and Onseol raised his eyebrows and said.
“Ma Doun. Move three steps to the right.”
“……No, that’s.”
When the hesitating Ma Doun showed no signs of moving aside, Onseol sighed and stood up in one swift motion while still holding Ka Jerim.
Since Ka Jerim was so light, Onseol who grabbed and stood up in one go walked past Ma Doun and frowned looking at the V-app screen that was still broadcasting.
“What’s this?”
And the moment Onseol’s eyes widened in shock, the broadcast ended.

After that day, fans called Onseol by the nicknames ‘On-appa’ and ‘On-papa’, Ka Jerim as ‘Baby (+Jerim)’, and bundled Ma Doun and Seon Hobeom together as ‘Dumb and Dumber’. And fans who learned of Park Eden’s love for ginseng all competed in a nickname battle, each trying to claim the nickname ‘Simmani’.
However, even until then, neither the fans nor even the agency could have imagined that this would be the birth of a grandpa-dol unprecedented in the variety show industry, and that Park Eden would be the one to cause a grandpa-dol craze by performing brilliantly on all sorts of nature broadcasts, rivaling experts. Also, that the reality show featuring all of them later would stir up tremendous buzz.
As fans said, it was truly the legendary V-app broadcast that was the starting point of Abyss’s variety show golden age.

Chapter 18
I had woken up early in the morning and was preparing to go to my schedule, and today was finally the day of the first filming of <We Got Married> with Lee Yeonun.
[……then, we’ll depart right away. Let’s talk a bit first…….]
Even while receiving Director Gye’s phone call, I was staring at the external hard drive. Even though I brought it last week, every time I thought I should check it, I only thought about it but couldn’t put it into action.
[Jerim-ah, come out quickly!]
“Yes.”
I hung up on Director Gye’s urging phone call, diligently took out my school uniform and put it in my school bag, then gathered this and that.
However, the end of my gaze kept staying on the external hard drive. In the end, last night was the same. A week had already passed while I only resolved that I should watch it today.
I wondered what I was so afraid of that I couldn’t even properly open that external hard drive, but it seemed I couldn’t easily look at it because whenever I saw the external hard drive, I thought of Ka Jerim sobbing.
“Jerim, you’re going out?”
“Ah, hyung. I was loud, wasn’t I. I’m sorry.”
“Mmm. No.”
Seon Hobeom spoke awkwardly in a hoarse voice. I had come in and slept during practice after hearing I had a schedule scheduled from early this morning so I needed to wake up early, but the members probably came just after practicing until just now.
“Our breadwinner…… Where is Jerim going.”
“<We Got Married> filming. Hyung, but why am I a breadwinner.”
“Since you’re the only one among us with a schedule…… you’re our breadwinner…… I’m a practice room…… ghost.”
I ended up bursting into laughter at Seon Hobeom calling me a breadwinner. He probably won’t even know what he said once he properly wakes up.
“I’ll be back.”
“……Mmm.”
I understood Seon Hobeom’s heart wanting to wave his hand hard, but as if his body wouldn’t move as he wished, his hand dropped down as soon as it quickly floated in the air.
It’s not like I was used to waking up at dawn either. Should I say my body didn’t follow? When it was Cha Hohyeon’s body before, I had good stamina, but in Ka Jerim’s case, my stamina wasn’t good so I got tired even from a little exercise, and every morning my body naturally drooped.
“Or it could be because of sleepwalking.”
I smiled bitterly and left the room. After the recent V-app broadcast accident, the members honestly confessed to me.
‘Sorry for hiding it until now. Jerim-ah, actually you…… have sleepwalking.’
As if explaining their reasons for hiding it in detail would just be making excuses, the members only apologized. When I first heard the fact that I had sleepwalking from before and it was gradually improving a lot, I was honestly angry.
I had the twisted thought that they might not have told me about the sleepwalking because they didn’t trust me, but I was ashamed of myself for having such thoughts after seeing the members’ attitude toward me in the V-app accident video.
‘Give it here.’
Those weren’t movements from coordinating once or twice. When I came out of the room after seeing the members calmly patting me while not knowing what to do worried I might get hurt, everyone was only watching my mood, and I couldn’t help but cover my face with my hands.
‘Are you okay?’
‘Hit me, Ka Jerim. Just hit me!’
‘Was the shock too big? What should we do.’
‘Don’t cry, Jerim-ah―’
Seeing them worrying that I was hurt when I should be the one apologizing made me feel even more sorry.
“Ah, I’m going to be late.”
At Director Gye’s phone call ringing again, I quickly finished what I was doing, left a message in the group KakaoTalk, then went out the door.

I put honey water in the fridge.
Don’t drink it cold because it’s bothersome, drink it warm
4 < I’ll be back (3:58 AM)
* * *
“Hello.”
“Jerim-ssi. You were surprised to be suddenly called, right? It just happened that the day Yeonun-ssi has time is today, so we’ll have to go in without even properly having a meeting in a hurry.”
“No. It’s okay.”
A staff member whose face seemed to have become half of what it was, though how long had it been since we last met, greeted me looking haggard. Next to them, Lee Yeonun was also consulting with the PD along with various staff members with a sleepy face.
“So what are we doing today……”
Lee Yeonun was drooping tiredly and sleepily, not knowing what to do. I heard Retro recently made a comeback, and it seems like they’re dying trying to handle that comeback schedule and <We Got Married> filming.
“Please quickly receive this and read it now. It’s a script, we should have given it beforehand.”
“A script?”
“To be honest, there’s not much content. However, since script involvement isn’t very high, I think it’ll be okay if you just be careful with your actions on the broadcast. We’ll also edit hard on our end.”
It seemed to mean most of the broadcast would continue with ad-lib, and looking at the script, it was indeed the case. The script really had nothing special.
“Honestly, at first we wondered how to frame the picture with two guys.”
“……”
“Later, there were actually so many things we could do compared to other teams that it was hard to decide. So after worrying, we decided on going to school. But the only weekday when we could go to school happened to be just today on Lee Yeonun-ssi’s side……”
“So we’re going to school now?”
No wonder they told me to bring my school uniform and to change into the uniform right away before getting makeup at the shop. Only then did those puzzling instructions make sense.
