“…Got it. I’ll teach you one thing at a time. Haha… Anyway, given the situation, it won’t be much. Don’t worry about it and just wait.”
Baek Hanje sank into his chair helplessly. Then he lazily flicked his fingertips toward Go Won, who was still standing.
“Let’s make this easy. Sit down.”
“……”
“I said this before, but get help from the company. You don’t need to tell them in as much detail as you told me…, …never mind. Let’s just go together when you talk to Kwon Taeyoung. You trust Kwon Taeyoung as an adult at least, right?”
“…Yes, the general manager is…”
“What, so I’m not?”
“……”
Go Won silently drank the remaining alcohol.
He knew Baek Hanje was a good enough person. Though right now he absolutely didn’t want to say it out loud…
In fact, even before meeting him today, he’d watched and rewatched past performance videos.
All of yACE, who are talked about as legends, are amazing people, but Baek Hanje in particular seemed like someone favored by the god of music. Not only his composing skills creating everything from title tracks to b-sides, but his ability to handle instruments, his ear-catching tone and vocals.
Of course, he couldn’t say a single word without being sarcastic, had a talent for making people angry, and made his insides burst every time, but…
Go Won gulped down the wine Baek Hanje had freshly poured. Carbonation popped in his mouth with a bitter taste. His passionately boiling insides cooled down a bit.
“So this is why everyone drinks when life gets hard…”
“Kup, khm. H-hey now. You’re all grown up…”
Baek Hanje, who had been drinking different wine, suddenly burst into coughs. The smell of alcohol spreading from him was slightly thicker than Go Won’s.
“Hey, but I still don’t get it. In that situation, why the hell didn’t you want to go to your family home?”
“When I go to my family home, my grandmother and grandfather keep trying to give up the master bedroom for me.”
“Oh, you little bastard. What a filial son.”
“……”
As the tension released from his tightly constricted head, his whole body sank down achingly.
Too many things had happened today. The tangled emotions poured out all at once, like Baek Hanje had pulled the bathtub drain. His head spun dizzily like that whirlpool. Go Won realized this was drunkenness.
“I’ll be going now.”
“Where are you going?”
“…I learned enough reasons not to go back to the dorm. I’ll go somewhere else.”
The way of speaking that had always been formal before the great senior had somehow loosened limply, and it wasn’t just because of the alcohol.
Separate from the fact that he was a good… senior, today Go Won had shown aspects of himself to another person that he could never show in his lifetime.
Trying to buy cup ramen but ending up getting treated to expensive meat.
Crying in fear in front of the dorm and stubbornly insisting on something ridiculous.
Coming to his house and raising his voice, getting completely exposed inside and out, and even getting drunk.
As he recalled each disgraceful act one by one, his face heated up again.
Go Won gave an awkward greeting and stood up from his seat. He walked unsteadily, but also because the house was so large, it took a while to reach the front door. When he came in earlier, he’d been distracted by the interior and hadn’t looked properly, but nice apartments even had cool-looking doors.
Go Won pressed the lock-shaped button. The lock turned and the door opened.
Beep.
Whirr—
“…?”
The door locked again.
Beep.
Whirr—
“You said you were leaving?”
When he turned around, every time the door locked, Baek Hanje was touching his phone.
“…Why are you doing this?”
“That’s what I’d like to know. Why am I doing this?”
“……”
“Why would I do this, Won-ah… This isn’t even a quest.”
“What?”
Go Won had almost never understood Baek Hanje’s words and actions, and now was no different.
“Hey, Go Won.”
“…Yes.”
“You’re staying here for the time being.”
“What?”
“Don’t say anything. I’m not letting you go no matter what you say. I have plenty of spare rooms in my house, so live there.”
Baek Hanje, who had strode to the entrance, stood crookedly with his arms crossed right in front of him.
“This is a threat, an order from your senior who’s like the heavens, and abuse of power from the general manager’s direct line. So throw away your opinions and just obey.”
It was so unreasonable that he wondered if the person who was really drunk might be him.
However, Go Won was completely pressed down by Baek Hanje’s force.
“U-until when…”
“What do you mean until when? Until settlement starts. I don’t know what nonsense might come out of that tiny head of yours, so stop talking and live here.”

2X0329 Cha Yeonsu selca, beauty updated again today
(Photo) (Photo)
Why doesn’t this person age… Every music video when he plays the role of shedding a single tear, his face is exactly the same;
↳There’s a reason Cha Yeon’su’ was the muse of fanfics back in those days
Young ladies, let’s gather at Agora with our broken plate pieces after a long time
Beginning the ancient and long-standing vote
Older lover seme VS Younger lover seme
Ho ho, it’s the long-standing vote that’s been going for 12 years. I’m consistently voting for younger lover seme.
↳By the time youngACE has a dinner show, we’ll have to make Cha Yeonsu choose between Kwon Taeyoung VS Baek Hanje for it to end…^^
Where else can you see an insane face combo like Kwon Tae X Yeonsu X Henzel
Ascetic and controlled beauty
Pure and graceful beauty
Fresh rascal beauty
In the beginning there were many fanfics, but the crazy love triangle started here
I thought K-dum’s Snow White beauty lineage started and ended with Cha Yeonsu
But they brilliantly brought in Go Won
(Photo)
Fucking pretty

From the side, the eyelashes and jawline are even more artistic

How did he receive such talent
??? K-dum newbie??? Drooling
Young ladies, the newbie’s stage name is <Go Won>
He was recruited by Leader Kwon, and he’s the real direct hoobae whose title song was written, composed + produced by the maknae.
Young ladies, we all know you’re at a level where you don’t get side-eyes for working with earphones in, so stream while you work.
Ah, he was a younger brother?~^^ I’m legally running dual fandom and coming back
Go Won came from my room Iㅅㅇ) Spades everyone, excuse me for a moment!
Our <Go Won> is currently recruiting fan club names. Please give us lots of good opinions for our younger brother’s fan club name. Thank you!
yACE fans have been called young ladies for years now…… So that’s what Spades is
↳So cute, I’m going to someone else’s room for a bit to pretend to be neutral
His eyes opened at a time he couldn’t identify.
“Ah.”
And closed again.
Since he hadn’t drunk for a while, his head felt like it would split.
So, after bringing Go Won in, drinking three or four bottles, stopping him from leaving, and then again…
He’d intended to get him to drink just enough to talk freely, but Go Won’s alcohol tolerance was a tougher opponent than expected. He ended up overdoing it along with him.
“Ha…”
After a deep sigh, he groggily lifted his body. As if the weather today was going to be exceptionally clear, when he left his room, sunlight was coming in through the large windows.
Go Won was sitting on the living room sofa. He didn’t seem to be sleeping, but his deeply bowed head wouldn’t lift.
Leaving the kid alone, he went to the kitchen to find water. After gulping down his insides with cold water, his dizzy head cleared up a bit.
“…Is it always like this?”
“Huh?”
“When you drink, is your body always weird like this the next day?”
Now this was a question so fresh it could be delivered to a department store.
“What’s wrong with your body?”
“My head is throbbing, my stomach is churning…”
“Wow, youth.”
Wasn’t that pretty mild? He was even young, so his detox ability must be good—there wasn’t a single bit of swelling on his face.
Go Won let out a deep sigh without even trying to hide it anymore.
“Hey, want to eat ramen for hangover relief?”
“Yesterday you said I shouldn’t eat sinful things even during rest periods.”
“That’s right. Your excellent senior said the right thing again yesterday.”
“……”
“But that’s the only cooking I know how to do. As for ingredients, the person who works here probably stocked them roughly.”
“What do you have?”
The voice came from close by, so when he turned around, Go Won had already approached and was examining the inside of the refrigerator with quite a serious look. His jet-black eyes scanned the ingredients one by one from the top, then turned and met his eyes.
“…!”
Then the kid scurried backward in retreat. Anyone watching would think I was trying to eat him for breakfast. No, why would he stick so close and then—?
“Want to order soup and rice?”
Go Won answered a beat late.
“…It looks like there’s everything to make soup. Do you have rice?”
“Is there?”
“……”
“Do you know where rice is usually kept in a house?”
“Isn’t this hyung’s house?”
“Oh, you’re not backing down on calling me hyung. Yesterday you came at me so fiercely and tried to put up walls, I thought you’d go back to calling me sunbae-nim.”
“……”
Go Won turned his body as if he hadn’t heard and pointlessly opened and closed the storage cabinets around the sink.
“I don’t know where anything is either. I’ve never even turned on this induction stove with my own hands.”
“You said let’s eat ramen earlier.”
“Cup ramen.”
“……”
“I’m just ordering soup and rice.”
When you can feel the touch of a skilled professional at home, why go through the trouble yourself?
“Ah, what were you planning to do today originally?”
“I’m not telling you.”
