If You Raise Three Idols Well, They Will Confess Their Love

217 – Playing Friends

Episode 217

It keeps filling up my mind.

To the extent that daily life is difficult, to the point where it is clearly visible that the existing values of Oh Yuri are collapsing.

A man named Sun Taeyang.

I felt a sense of crisis that this should not be like this.

So, squandering my spare time, I found a quack who had previously sold me and her mother a treatment program. Since he was already retired, it was not easy to meet him, but when he heard that I was looking for him, he contacted me personally.

The quack doctor we met again said with a friendly smile.

“Long time no see. Oh Chun-ja. … Should I call you Mr. Oh Yuri now?”

“The title doesn’t really matter.”

That wasn’t what was important now.

“What have you done to me?”

“… “What are you doing? Is Oh Chun-ja going through a change right now?”

“I’m going through it. So terribly.”

“What changes are you going through?”

Although I felt some reluctance to tell such a story, I told him about the strange experience I had since meeting a man named Seon Taeyang.

“People keep coming into my head. “I try not to think about it, but it keeps coming into my head even though I don’t feel the need to do it and it’s not worth it.”

It’s a very strange thing.

It is natural that thoughts flow only according to my intention, but even when I do not intend it, that man keeps disturbing my thoughts.

This was not a normal situation.

“Is that everyone? Or is it just one person?”

“It’s just one person.”

“…”

The doctor was silent after hearing what I said, thought for a moment, and then said.

“Can you guess what that person might be thinking?”

No, I couldn’t guess what the man was thinking.

It was impossible for me to understand that person.

“I don’t know. How would I know that?”

“Then, do you have any idea what that person might be thinking?”

“… Yes, I do.”

“You also think about what that person will feel in what situation.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

The doctor smiled strangely at my words and said.

“Oh Chun-ja is sympathizing now.”

“… Yes?”

It was a very awkward word.

Because it was a word that had nothing to do with me.

“You say I’m a psychopath? How do I do that? “Am I one of those crazy b*tches and crazy people who are rational and value-sensitive and can only see numbers and phenomena without considering emotions?”

“To be more accurate, it should be called congenital antisocial personality disorder.”

“The meaning won’t be much different, right?”

“There is a difference in scope. “It depends on whether it encompasses more meaning or deals with more limited cases.”

“You said he was a psychopath back then.”

“That’s for ease of explanation… , No, it would be better to say it like this rather than saying such lame things.”

The quack doctor smiled bitterly and said as he looked at me.

“It is a common misconception, but a psychopath does not mean a person without emotions. This applies to cases such as affective hyperplasia or alexithymia. “The two are completely different.”

“…”

“So, Oh Chun-ja is not without emotions. … And if she can know how she feels, she can empathize.”

I snorted slightly and said.

“Then aren’t you just an ordinary person? Probably not. “I know better than anyone else that I’m a crazy b*tch.”

“Of course there are differences. It is true that in general, there are few emotions felt. However, you should also consider that the criteria for psychopaths are ultimately applied as long as they differ from the standards of ordinary people. The statement that we cannot empathize with people in the same way as ordinary people varies greatly depending on the case. There are people who can empathize only a little, and there are people who cannot empathize at all. … And there are people who can only empathize with animals, plants, characters, or specific people.”

“…”

There was one person that came to mind when I heard those words.

“I organized the program thinking that Ms. Oh Chun-ja was a case that I could empathize with only a little, but it seems I was wrong. I think Oh Chun-ja was the last case.”

“…”

“You said someone keeps coming into your head, right? You don’t stop there, you keep worrying about what that person will feel or think, right? Even though Oh Chun-ja didn’t mean it. … That is empathy. “Empathy tends to see in naturally even if you don’t intend it.”

This is natural? I feel dizzy, numb, and throbbing like this, but everyone feels this?

And then you live a normal life?

… Is that possible?

“… Do other people feel this every moment?”

“That’s how they live. Even though it’s tiring.”

“…”

The quack doctor quickly dismissed my question and spoke seriously.

“Mr. Oh Chun-ja.”

The wrinkled doctor spoke with a faint regret in his eyes.

“Don’t ignore that impulse, that empathy, cherish it. That could be Oh Chun-ja’s last chance.”

“… What if you’re going to ignore it?”

The quack doctor looked slightly surprised at my assertion, but then smiled mischievously and said.

“That won’t be easy, will it?”

***

Girls 100 has concluded.

In many ways, it ended with an explosion.

And as I stood at the center of the explosion, I naturally could not continue working with Flower.

Since the company collapsed in the first place, we wouldn’t have been together even if we weren’t at the center…

But surprisingly, there were many agencies that made offers to me, who had a dangerous job as a whistleblower. It seems like it was worth the effort to make it look good to the people involved.

Considering my average visual appearance and ability, I was also a good listing that could be counted among the fingers.

Although most of them were negative, it was a cheap intention to use me as a celebrity for noise marketing, but there were quite a few proper agencies. Even at agencies that are good enough to make you wonder, ‘Where is this?’

It was too luxurious an option to be given to a whistleblower. However, among those luxurious options, the one I chose was to be cute in front of Sun Taeyang and ask him to accept it from Two Bear.

It was a choice that would result in losses right now, but it was a choice from a long-term perspective.

The man and company I saw next to me were just a startup right now, but they seemed to have plenty of potential.

Under that judgment, Seon Taeyang spoke to me who was giving desperate lip service and showing cuteness.

“Do you think it’s necessary to recruit you like that?”

“…”

“Meanwhile, since you brought up the topic of recruitment in such a light manner, I feel more negative about it. … Choosing four people now is a choice that will decide the fate of the entire Two Bear family. When I choose someone like that, I don’t want to pick someone who is so light. “I want someone with a desperate attitude.”

That man probably knows too. This means that the fact that high-quality products are rolling in to Two Bear on their own is, from their perspective, no different from receiving gold for free. Even if there were some defects, it was rare to find a property like mine that did not require additional investment, that is, with a sense of power.

So, Sun Taeyang’s remarks would be similar to a form of discipline.

It is a rationally understandable judgment. That’s right, I’m a product with a track record.

Here I will have to slowly increase my appeal.

Because that’s how persuasion is structured.

“Hmm… “You have to be willing to kneel down and lick your feet, so I, a dull person, won’t understand, right?”

However, in the face of such remarks, it seemed like bouncing at least once would be helpful in achieving balance in leadership.

That man probably wanted that too, and it has that much value to me.

However…

“If you just pick me out, I will lick your feet every day. No, I’ll just give you a full body shower with my tongue! Please trust me just once!”

For some reason, the body moved first.

“Hey, stop for a moment… , Stop! Evil! I really licked it!”

I stared blankly at his face, whose cheeks were stained red from embarrassment, and then I realized the reality.

… What did I do?

***

After officially signing a contract with Two Bear, Cheon A-ram, the president of Two Bear, told me.

“There is one thing to keep in mind while Oh Yuri is a member of a girl group in Two Bear.”

“What is it?”

Her expression, which had been leading the situation with her signature overbearing smile throughout the contract, suddenly frowned and she spoke with a sigh.

“That… , Because it is not common to have members to work with. In terms of human relationships.”

I answered quickly.

“Does not matter. Because I’m used to living in groups. Even if we have to clash with each other, we will coordinate so that there are no problems.”

“No, that’s not the problem with Mr. Oh Yuri… Ha.”

Cheon A-ram shook her head and said with a strange smile.

“I think it would be better to see this in person.”

“… What is that?”

“You will find out right away.”

And it was the very next day that I found out the crazy fact that all three trainees with whom I had to spend 7 years liked their manager, Seon Taeyang, at the same time.

***

I think I put in some effort.

This is to postpone the catastrophe of the precarious relationship between the three older sisters and a strange man named Seon Tae-yang, who have hearts too big to be called simple crushes.

Because it was obvious that I would also be caught up in the bomb they had in their arms.

In the meantime, my sister gave up her job in the fall.

By threatening her with her own life, she made him promise to be her lover.

It was a crazy thing that no one could have expected.

No, actually, I thought one out of three would explode someday, but I didn’t know it would be this fast.

… I thought it would be around the end of the contract.

As soon as I found out that fact, I immediately ran to Sun Taeyang’s office.

It was a reflex action that occurred before the thought was formed.

And I saw it.

Sun Tae-yang’s face is so filled with guilt that he cries silently, unable to shed tears.

“…”

At that moment, uncontrollably, his heart, his thoughts, and all of his responsibilities came into me.

I swam. I dug in.

It fills his chest so that the pain and sadness he feels is intense.

It made me ‘sympathize’.

I tried to ignore it. Because this is not like me.

Oh Yuri, you’re a selfish and crazy b*tch who only cares about herself.

‘That won’t be easy, will it?’

But in the end, the quack was right.

“… “Is it Yuri?”

There was no way I could leave that alone.

I handed over the beer I had stolen and thought desperately, just in case.

For the first time, instead of hiding from the waves of the sun that invaded my brain and swept away, I drowned myself. I actively participated in that ’empathy’.

In the end, I felt like I had a vague idea of what Sun Taeyang needed right now.

“It’s just that it’s okay to think of me as a friend.”

The reason I called myself by a name I had never called myself before was because I thought that was the answer.

“It’s non-alcoholic, but it’s a casual friend you can chat with over a glass of beer. “A friend who doesn’t even look at me as the opposite s*x.”

Sun Taeyang accepted it as bluntly as usual.

However, what was contained in the faint smile flowing from the corner of the mouth and the corner of the eye had changed.

She was able to understand that feeling even without calculating it as a phenomenon or average distribution.

His feelings changed. From worrying about myself, to ‘security.’

Looks like I found the answer.

He felt comfortable with my remarks.

It seemed like my wounded heart had been healed just a little.

“…”

… But instead, my heart felt dizzy and painful.
