“Kyaaa! Bae Sinhyo! Bae Sinhyo!”
[Chanmi had a lot built up too]
[She was laughing saying “oh dear~ what to do~” every time Pax got hit]
[Everyone feels the same lol]
[Jealous they got to see Pax’s downfall in person]
[More jealous they saw Bae Sinhyo;; this summer league ticketing will get worse]
That day’s match stayed on people’s lips for quite a long time. It was natural for it to become a hot topic since everything was revealed at once—from the identity of hater Pax whose tail hadn’t been caught for years, to Pax and Bae Sinhyo’s relationship, and even Bae Sinhyo’s skills that seemed like he’d become a different person.
People waited for Pyeonghwa to turn on his broadcast, wanting to hear post-match reactions. But even after several days passed, no news came up on Pyeonghwa’s channel. All kinds of speculation continued—that he’d retired out of embarrassment, or gone quiet after receiving a lawsuit.
Though Pyeonghwa had blocked broadcast replays, someone uploaded footage of the broadcast screen filmed with a phone camera. Even people who couldn’t watch the live broadcast could enjoy the match in clear quality. As expectations for Bae Sinhyo grew, the stock price of Geumwon Group, Golden Ball’s parent company, drew an upward curve day after day.
The video spread across the ocean. Even foreigners who learned the identity of ‘hot chili guy’ began taking interest in the Korean league.

Sniffle, sniffle…….
Since last night, Pyeonghwa’s pillow hadn’t had a chance to dry. The blackout curtains that had been wide open a few months ago were now closed darkly again.
His phone had run out of battery and turned off. Today was Saturday when he was supposed to meet Dohae, but he couldn’t plug in the charger in case there had been no contact from him.
If he’d seen his face beaten disgracefully and made ugly, his affection surely would have dropped completely. He might have thought it was embarrassing to be seen together.
‘The genius wasn’t me but Bae Sinhyo. I’m…… I’m just person 1……’
The shock and frustration Pyeonghwa felt exceeded imagination. From the moment he felt that Bae Sinhyo had overcome his weakness and surpassed his limits, he thought he might lose, but he didn’t know he’d be crushed this miserably.
It wasn’t a matter of sensitivity. He ran simulations assuming sensitivity was raised to 100%, but the result was the same. He absolutely couldn’t think of a way to win.
