“I love him enough to throw away everything I’ve built under the name Jung Haesung, my entire world. I realized it too late. To the point of foolishness… I intend to fill back the time I’ve eaten away, no matter how long it takes, no matter how difficult it is. I know all too well that since I sowed the seeds, I must be the one to reap them.”
In an instant, silence spread throughout the recording studio.
Even the flustered host straightened their posture and listened attentively to Haesung’s words.
“I acknowledge that long ago, I clipped Kim Dohyeong-ssi’s wings with words I spoke thoughtlessly. I was too arrogant. What’s so special about the three characters Jung Haesung?”
“Well, those three characters are pretty impressive though.”
At the host’s witty remark thrown in for no reason, Haesung burst out laughing again.
But the story wasn’t over. There were still things he hadn’t confessed.
“I deeply regret that. I’ve had many regrets too. So… yes. I didn’t want to have any more regrets. Of course, it’s not one-sided feelings. It’s Dohyeong’s heart that I obtained after waiting a long time and knocking persistently. Even so, we’ll need a bit more time. The wounds that friend received will probably remain even after washing them away, and the scars will stay without being erased… I intend to bear that as well.”
As Haesung continued his story calmly, the host made exaggerated expressions. Covering their mouth with both hands, not knowing what to do, they moved closer to Haesung again.
“Then let’s ask this. Why did you like Kim Dohyeong-ssi? What attracted you to him?”
“…Here?”
“Yes.”
“Everything?”
“Everything.”
“Will that be okay?”
“Of course it will.”
Since the viewership ratings were already in the bag, they must be determined to dig out more.
This was what he’d aimed for. This too had enough value to utilize.
Haesung smiled leisurely and opened his mouth.
“First of all, isn’t his infinite potential itself the attraction? He has talent for acting. If he polishes it more than now, perhaps he could surpass me.”
“Ah, in acting.”
“Yes. And well, he’s… kind. His heart is tender and pure. Why did I act so meanly back then? Enough to regret it while chewing over the past when I hurt him every time.”
“So you’re acknowledging that you were a mean person?”
“Of course. Otherwise I can’t face Kim Dohyeong-ssi with confidence.”
“Wow… isn’t this a story that makes even those who don’t accept it easily cringe?”
The host muttered while shaking their head, and Haesung burst out laughing at the sight.
After that, the lavish praise toward Dohyeong continued.
There might be parts that get edited out, but it was still fine.
He would tell the same story in the interviews that would follow anyway.
Just a little, Haesung’s heart became lighter.

ㅋㅋ So then what about that actor, were they used?
Did Endpatch put on a show or did that actor put on a show?
Nothing’s actually coming from the actor’s side thoughㅋ The delusions are amazing
They said reenactment actor, wasn’t it a reenactment of brain delusions?ㅋㅋ
Endpatch is the weird one hereㅋ Endpatch being Endpatch
After Haesung dropped a bombshell on the talk show, media outlets reported different articles.
Articles re-examining the relationship between Haesung and Dohyeong appeared, articles about public opinion turning around as Director Na’s documentary teaser was released, and articles about the schedule controversy followed by the hardships according to manifestation types rose up.
The flow and direction of the comments also changed completely.
It was weird no matter how you looked at it. Who doesn’t know how hard it is to be a hit or treat?
They must’ve been paid offㅋ
Probably did noise marketingㅋ That actorㅋ
In the comments, shapeless blades ran rampant, and the blade tips were pointed toward Endpatch and Hakyung.
Hakyung, holding his phone with trembling hands, let out a sigh.
Then he placed the phone face down on his knees and squeezed his eyes shut before opening them.
“What are you going to do about this?”
He heard the voice of Reporter Ong, who had chuckled, from beside him.
Since meeting outside would draw public attention and they couldn’t meet just anywhere, the only place the two could meet was Hakyung’s own car.
“What do you mean, what am I going to do?”
“No, you said you could make a big splash.”
Reporter Ong’s voice was cold.
It was completely different from the voice of the man who had been picking up article material while receiving photos from him until now.
“Who was the one who boasted confidently that it was certain?”
“No, I—”
“Whether it’s Kim Dohyeong or Jung Haesung, you’d entangle one of them and let me blow it up properly. You spoke so confidently like that, didn’t you? Is this it? Look at this blowing up somewhere else now, what, did you play me?”
As Reporter Ong’s voice grew louder, Hakyung’s head also became more complicated.
Everything had turned to bubbles.
In the end, the dating rumor with Dohyeong had become useless. The stories they’d recorded while sitting face to face with Reporter Ong would obviously be consumed as a laughingstock if released now.
No, like someone in the comments said, since he was a reenactment actor, they might say he reenacted brain delusions.
Would he be able to act in the future?
With the thoughts that followed, Dohyeong’s voice overlapped.
‘Think more preciously of your own life. While trying to scheme, you could lose everything you’ve built up with difficulty.’
Was that what he meant back then?
His fingertips felt coldly chilled. He clenched them inward, trying hard to find composure, but.
‘From the beginning, those two were a bit cold… but their gazes gradually changed, you know? Ah, and when we went on location shooting. I heard they saw them coming out of a room together. Who saw it? Ah, it was a lighting staff member….’
‘It was a bit strange. Anyone could see that Actor Kim Dohyeong seemed to be avoiding him, and Actor Jung Haesung seemed to be trying to stick to him. Actor Choi Yuchan seemed to be deliberately provoking? It felt like something like that. How on earth could it be interpreted that way?’
‘Dohyeong-ssi and Yuchan-ssi were stuck together. Since they’re friends, I guess that’s why. They joked around a lot, our makeup team laughed so much. But you know, whenever that happened, Jung Haesung-ssi’s jealousy was no joke, really. You could clearly see the direction. Why on earth did such a rumor spread?’
And what was probably most decisive was:
I went to deliver to N Residence and saw Jung Haesung and Kim Dohyeong there. I saw them going in together months before the article dropped, how will you explain this? ㅋㅋ
I was jogging near Kim Dohyeong’s house and I saw Jung Haesung waiting in front of his house on that day it was reported. Someone familiar rolled down the window and was just staring at Kim Dohyeong’s house. I thought it was a stalker but it turned out to be Jung Haesung ㅋ
It was the eyewitness accounts of people who had seen Dohyeong and Haesung together and their unusual atmosphere.
Since not a single eyewitness account or anecdote with Hakyung came out, all arrows pointed to the conclusion that it was all Hakyung’s brain delusions.
Moreover, as the fact that Director Na had sued Hakyung for spreading false information became known, people all turned their backs on Hakyung and Endpatch.
A few days later, Endpatch also posted a statement as if announcing they had discarded the Im Hakyung card.
We reveal that from the first scandal of Actors Kim Dohyeong, Jung Haesung, and Choi Yuchan to the <Glass Holding Stars> waiting room incident and the photos from overseas location shooting were all obtained through tips from Actor A.
Endpatch only believed the tips from Actor A, a drama insider, and reported them as is without fact-checking, causing harm to many people.
Accordingly, all of us at Endpatch bow our heads in apology and promise to continue striving for transparent media ethics.
Watching all that process, Hakyung let out a hollow laugh.
Left alone in the room, no one reached out a hand to him.
In an instant, Dohyeong’s words flashed through his head. The words that nothing would remain.
It was exactly as he said. Nothing remained, and he gained nothing.
The production company of <Glass Holding Stars> notified him that they wouldn’t edit out Hakyung’s parts. However, all of this was only to prove that Hakyung’s claims were wrong.
Should he be happy? Should he be ashamed? He couldn’t get a grip.
Why did everyone move with one heart, for what reason were they all saying the same thing?
Hakyung still didn’t know.
