The RayOFF production team, who had been uncharacteristically generous saying there were no budget limits for grocery shopping, changed completely as soon as it was lunchtime.
“Correct! Senior Yang Deokchun’s A Thousand Years of Storm!”
“Wrong!”
At Baek Sian’s cheerful sound of elimination, Kang Ihyun, who had confidently shouted the answer, let out a disappointed sigh. Now the opportunity had passed to the other team. Do Yeonjae raised his hand and spoke in a calm voice.
“Correct. Senior Cheonguk’s Thorns of Crazy Love.”
“Wow, how do you know this song? Correct!”
The game with regional specialty dishes at stake only allowed the winning team of each round to taste the food. The teams were divided using a ladder game, with Kang Ihyun and Hayun (eldest-hyungs), Yeo Minsung and Do Yeonjae (refund-z), and Baek Sian as the referee.
The theme for this ‘guess the song from the lyrics game,’ which would be played in a best 2 out of 3 format, was ‘nostalgic ballads.’ The difficulty was quite high since they were basically old songs and the questions came from less well-known sections rather than famous parts.
The lyrics given as a hint were [Even the sky shook its head at this crazy love, which will remain a sin even after a thousand years].
“Ah! I know this one, but I got confused for a moment because the word ‘thousand years’ came up….”
“How old were you at this time, Yeonjae?”
“I was five. My mom liked this song.”
“Still, that’s impressive.”
With this, it was 1:1. In the previous round of ‘nostalgic dance songs,’ the eldest-hyungs had scored. If they won the next round, they could eat the octopus sashimi on the table.
“Now, next is ‘nostalgic OST.'”
“Why does the theme keep being nostalgic? Isn’t this game too disadvantageous for us refund-z?”
“Huh? Yeonjae aside, Minsung-hyung is only one year younger than the eldest-hyungs.”
Yeo Minsung’s protest was quickly dismissed, but looking back, it had quite a point. Because the final victory went to the eldest-hyungs.
“This looks delicious!”
“Hah……”
While the eldest-hyungs ate the octopus sashimi, referee Baek Sian excitedly got a few bites, and refund-z just smacked their lips from the side.
The next dish was pork bossam from a restaurant with 30 years of tradition. Seeing the meat texture that looked like it would melt in his mouth, Do Yeonjae clenched his fist. I’m definitely eating this…. The game given to him with venomous eyes was ‘palm pushing.’
The rules were simple. Two people stand facing each other and push palms, and whoever loses balance first loses.
The match between Hayun and Yeo Minsung that soon began ended anticlimactically. Yeo Minsung pushed Hayun hard as if ambushing him right from the start.
“Whoa…!”
Do Yeonjae quickly caught Hayun, who was about to fall backward. There was a mat on the floor, but it was still dangerous.
“Are you okay?”
“Ah… thanks, Yeonjae.”
Quite startled, Hayun’s cheeks turned reddish. It was a scene that would drive DdoHaet fans crazy. Baek Sian, who’d been watching, wrinkled his nose playfully.
“Tsk. Minsung-hyung, you’re pushing way too seriously?”
“It’s a competition, so I should do it properly. Go easy? That’s boring.”
Yeo Minsung frowned and complained. The remark was thrown out as a joke but he responded too seriously, making the atmosphere awkward for a moment.
Yeo Minsung’s personality—highly competitive and calculating in everything—was quite divisive even within the fandom.
He looked like a thug with sharp features, so it seemed like he’d be positioned as a seme in BL, but that wasn’t necessarily the case. Yeo Minsung, due to his personality of being realistic at best and selfish at worst, was often subjected to ‘punitive uke-fication.’
What is punitive uke-fication? The act of imposing punishment by giving the ‘uke’ position to someone who is vile and despicable due to poor character. Those who cause scandals like dating rumors, extremely hate BL, or have a shitty personality often become targets… unfortunately, Yeo Minsung applied to all three.
Especially after the fact that he was recently in a hot relationship with a civilian girlfriend quietly spread among fans, Seonguke (Minsung-uke) was rising rapidly and hotly.

Crazy that’s a grueling multi-seme story, they’re feeding hardcore from the start lololol
…This was sufficient punishment.
Let’s assume there’s an idol group with members ABCDE. In the past, idol group fans had a strong all-fan base, so when consuming BL, they had to pair up all members harmoniously. Making two official couples like A ♡ B, C ♡ D, they couldn’t stand E being left out, so they’d employ him as a bartender.
But nowadays it was different. With individual fan bases strengthening and my bias becoming more important than the whole group, if member A’s charm stood out, they could be paired with both B and C regardless of seme/uke position, and both could reach major status.
Like Do Yeonjae, who made it to 1st and 2nd place in the Onfes Pota rankings in both positions.
Though DdoUke was bigger than DdoSeme in scale, the reason Ihyun x Yeonjae rose to 2nd place was clear. While DdoLeft shippers leisurely picked from HaetUke, JjitUke, ShanUke, and SeongUke like a buffet, Yeonjae-uke shippers who desperately wanted to put their bias on the right went all-in on JjitJae alone.
The very sad fact was that aside from Kang Ihyun who was 180cm tall, there were no other members suitable to go on the left of Do Yeonjae who was 184cm. Even if large-bodied ukes were the trend, there should be a reasonable difference.
Amidst this extreme alphabet CP concentration phenomenon where only certain popular members were being consumed, alphabet CP novice Do Yeonjae’s attention was focused solely on JjitHaet.
“Yuna, look at this. I’m in so much pain.”
The palm pushing match between Do Yeonjae and Kang Ihyun ended with Do Yeonjae winning after a close contest. As soon as Kang Ihyun lost the game, he ran to Hayun’s side and held out his reddened palm whining, but the response that came back was cold.
“…So what.”
“What do you mean ‘so what’? You should say ‘good job.'”
Do Yeonjae’s eyes narrowed as he watched that scene. When playing the game, he didn’t show any sign of pain, but when he went to Hayun-hyung, he hunched his large body and grimaced.
‘Is that what they mean by husband vibes doing carpentry?’
What the. Do Yeonjae shook his head in surprise. Why am I being like this? I decided to think the heart was pressed by mistake. Why does my thinking keep flowing in this direction….
Just seeing it briefly made him this easily swayed—if even he was like this, it seemed like it would have a much worse influence on budding seedlings. He became seriously concerned whether the country should officially designate age ratings for alphabet CPs.
However, the concerns in his head soon evaporated cleanly. Because tender boiled meat came right before his eyes.
“To refund-z, who won the palm pushing match 2:0, we present pork bossam!”
“Wow…! Thank you.”
The bossam was incredibly delicious. So much so that it melted in his mouth.
After that, they played several more games and filled their stomachs.
After lunch, they had some personal time while resting briefly at the pension. Playing games or taking naps. Each unwound their fatigue in various ways.
Do Yeonjae sat on the living room sofa and took out his phone. There wasn’t really anything to do and he wasn’t sleepy either…. Thinking he’d check overdue messages, he pressed the app and was shocked.
There was a message from someone not registered as a friend. From about two hours ago.
Do Yeonjae
Stop pissing me off and unblock me
“…Kwon Isoo?”
Do Yeonjae’s eyes widened seeing the name that appeared above the [Add Friend] button. What is this out-of-the-blue contact? What does he mean by unblock…… Ah.
Could that number he blocked before filming earlier have been Kwon Isoo? Frowning, he was staring intently at the screen when another message came in the meantime.
Look, ignoring me again
