“I wish I could go to the sea too.”
“You’re mistaken, you know. We’re going there to work, not to play.”
“But we might have so free ti to relax, right?”
It was up to the celebrities whether they wanted to bring their managers or not for a program like ‘Welco to the Guest House’, which involved going abroad.
Yoo Yeon Seo decided to go alone.
There was no need to drag his manager along when there were plenty of staff, dical personnel, and local guides.
“Why are you following when everyone else is leaving their managers behind?”
“Is that so?”
Itaegyeom felt disappointed. He had never been to a resort before… He must have spoiled him too much. Yoo Yeon Seo resolved to make him work harder when he ca back.
“Sir, do I really have to stay behind?”
“Just take a vacation while I’m gone.”
Im Seunghyun also got a leave. He wouldn’t have much to do there anyway.
“Sir, you’re not planning to do everything the production team tells you to, are you?”
“?”
Yoo Yeon Seo chuckled.
He could understand if it was acting, but why should he bother for a variety show? The production team was the one who needed his more. He heard that the production budget had increased by more than twice since he joined.
Im Seunghyun probably guessed what he was thinking and asked him.
“Don’t you think it would be more fun if I did sothing unexpected?”
“I suppose so.”
Im Seunghyun smiled aningfully.
“I’ll think of a way to help you even if I’m not there.”
Yoo Yeon Seo didn’t stop him. It was honestly convenient to have soone do things for him behind the scenes.
And this was the result.
While the exhausted cast mbers were sleeping in, a truck parked in front of the guest house.
“Did you hear that noise outside?”
Two locals got out of the truck and started to pile up so goods in front of the guest house. The production team, who were staying nearby, gathered around them. The cast mbers, who had woken up from the noise, did the sa.
“What are all these?”
“Oh, they’re here.”
While everyone was staring blankly at the goods, Yoo Yeon Seo pushed Kim Ijun’s shoulder and walked towards them.
“*These are the goods you requested.”
“*Thank you for bringing them. I appreciate it.”
“*Don’t ntion it. Could you please put in a good word for us upstairs?”
“*Sure.”
Yoo Yeon Seo nodded with satisfaction as he inspected the goods. They had brought more than he had asked for.
Park Seunghwan, who was behind him, asked.
“Hey, Yeon Seo. What are these?”
“These are the things we couldn’t get yesterday.”
“How did you…?”
“Anything is possible.”
A smile spread across the lips of the cast mbers, who were still groggy. So that’s what ‘Sir’ Yoo Yeon Seo was up to!
The person who received a text ssage from Yoo Yeon Seo yesterday was none other than Im Seunghyun.
() Can you do it?
(Im Seunghyun) I’ll have them delivered by 9 a.m. tomorrow
Im Seunghyun had already done his research on the island they were going to. There was a construction company that was developing the area and had ties with Jusung. He had obtained the goods through them.
‘I guess I have more influence than I thought.’
He even asked to put in a good word for them… Yoo Yeon Seo felt the weight of his background.
“Let’s bring these in before they take them away.”
“Yes.”
At Park Seunghwan’s command, the cast mbers naturally picked up the goods and took them inside the guest house. The PD smirked.
“Yeon Seo, you can’t use your own money, you know.”
“This is a gift, you know?”
“What?”
“It’s not my money, it’s a gift.”
Yoo Yeon Seo smiled at the locals who brought the goods. They waved their hands and said ‘Gift! Gift!’ in English.
The PD smirked. He glanced at the goods and saw that so of them were not from the island, but from the mainland.
They had enough to open the guest house without the things they shopped for yesterday.
“Where did you get all these…?”
“It’s easy. Just one phone call.”
The PD almost grabbed his neck as he saw Yoo Yeon Seo shaking his phone and speaking shalessly. No wonder Han Juno warned him to ‘be careful of that guy’… He shouldn’t have taken that lightly.
The PD made a helpless expression and looked at Yoo Yeon Seo. He looked so much like Han that Yoo Yeon Seo burst out laughing.
“Yeon Seo…”
“Didn’t you say you would let off once?”
He thought he would ask for sothing trivial, like a day off or an exemption from labor. He didn’t seem to have any vitality in the pre-interview.
But he didn’t expect him to use it for this. He sighed as he saw his shaking the whole program plan.
“So, are you going to take these away?”
“That would be unfair. PD, I’m disappointed.”
Jin Suho ca over and said. He was the epito of a good life, who never said anything bad to others. When he said that, the other cast mbers also ca over and protested.
“Fine… Just this once.”
“Okay.”
The PD was feeling guilty for setting the budget too tight, and Yoo Yeon Seo wouldn’t ss with the production team’s plan too much. Probably.
“Instead, since we have everything we need to open, let’s do it tomorrow. Do you all agree?”
“Yes.”
The cast mbers cheered and the production team moved busily to prepare for the early opening of the guest house. The cast mbers whispered to Yoo Yeon Seo that he did well.
Yoo Yeon Seo didn’t unfold his arms. Was it just his imagination, or did he look a bit arrogant? The PD sighed deeply.
“So we don’t have to go shopping anymore?”
“That’s right.”
“Then we can play today?”
Park Seunghwan pointed at the sea in front of them. He looked like he didn’t like being active, but he seed to enjoy it.
‘Well… We didn’t get to play much yesterday.’
Yoo Yeon Seo also looked at the sea with a dazed expression. He was filming, but it was a proper vacation for his body.
‘But why don’t I feel anything?’
Kang Jinho in 2207 had never seen white sand and clear sea under the warm sun, but he had seen it through mory synchronization, so it didn’t feel that new to him.
“Wait a minute, before you go… Please na the guest house.”
“Na? Do you have any ideas?”
“I have no sense of naming…”
“How about Yeon Seo nas it?”
‘Our Yeon Seo’… Yoo Yeon Seo laughed at the sudden change of address. It was better than being treated like a pushover in the pre-eting…
He spoke without thinking as he saw the people full of anticipation.
“Let’s just call it ‘Today’. In Korean pronunciation, not English.”
“Today? That’s not bad.”
“I like it too.”
Choi Junyoung, who called himself Han Seokbong, wrote the na of the guest house on a wooden sign. And he hung it on the front door.
“It feels like our own place now.”
“Let’s do our best from tomorrow. Today, let’s have fun.”
“But don’t you think the PD has a trick up his sleeve?”
Everyone looked at the PD’s back at Kim Ijun’s words.
“No way…”
Yoo Yeon Seo was the only one who casually crossed his arms. Well, he gave his money to buy ingredients for breakfast, but he probably gave his less than enough.
The PD felt a chill on his arm and turned around quickly. And he t Yoo Yeon Seo’s eyes.
Yoo Yeon Seo smiled and waved his right hand as if to greet him. The PD sighed as he turned back. Most of his sighs in 2019 were probably because of Yoo Yeon Seo.
“Writer Seo… I think I brought a fox into the house.”
“What’s wrong with that, as long as it’s fun. Why don’t you make a special episode of Yeon Seo making you suffer?”
“You too?”
“Still, it’s better than him suddenly going berserk like the rumors say.”
“That’s… true.”
He had really improved his personality. He was relieved by that, but he was making him nervous in another way.
They all seed determined to enjoy their vacation, so they put on swimsuits and went into the sea. Lee Yoonjung even brought a tube and floated it on the water.
They didn’t wear pin mics since they were going into the sea. Yoo Yeon Seo took this opportunity to stick to Kim Ijun’s side.
“Hey, Kim Ijun.”
Kim Ijun shrugged his shoulders as Yoo Yeon Seo splashed water on him.
“What. If you’re upset, splash back.”
“No, that’s not it… I have sothing to ask you.”
“What is it?”
Yoo Yeon Seo scratched the back of his head as he faced Kim Ijun. How should he say this?
“When I was staying with you guys at the dorm… Was there anything weird?”
“Weird?”
After he learned that his body was seeing Lee Heeseo’s illusion, Yoo Yeon Seo felt his own image in the mory synchronization was alien.
[Hey, clean that up.]
[Clean it up!]
He suddenly snapped and threw things. He thought he was just a crazy jerk back then, but what if there was another reason?
“Why are you asking that?”
“Just answer if I ask.”
“Well… Thanks to you, we got all this…”
Kim Ijun muttered and frowned as he recalled his mory.
“Well… There was nothing particularly weird.”
“Are you a goldfish? You can’t rember sothing from 7, 8 years ago? Think hard.”
“I’m not a genius like you, okay?”
He wondered why he was asking this, but he knew that Yoo Yeon Seo wouldn’t tell him the details. He would keep bothering him until he found the answer, so it was better to just tell him and lose interest.
“Do you sleep well alone these days?”
“What are you talking about?”
“We stayed at the company because we couldn’t finish our vocal practice, but you hated being alone at the dorm, so you waited for us.”
Yoo Yeon Seo frowned.
“?”
“Well… You didn’t say it, but it was obvious from your expression.”
“How do you know if I didn’t say it?”
“Back then, Yuchan hyung noticed and said ‘Isn’t he scared of being alone?’ You know Yuchan hyung is a genius at reading people, right?”
Yoon Yuchan was the leader of One Seven, and he was the sa age as Lee Hangeol.
“Then it’s not true.”
“It is.”
“It’s not.”
Yoo Yeon Seo didn’t smooth out the wrinkles on his forehead. He felt his pride hurt even though it wasn’t his action. Kim Ijun snickered as he saw him.
“And… What about your sudden tantrums?”
“…”
“You used to do that all the ti.”
“Really?”
Was it that common? Then…
‘What if I really went crazy and had a fit every ti I saw the illusion?’
It made sense. He had mories of seeing the empty air since he was young in a school uniform. He felt suffocated as he realized that his ignored thoughts were true.
“But why are you asking?”
“It’s nothing.”
He kept asking, but he gave up as he saw him clamping his mouth shut.
“What are you two whispering about?”
“Co and play with us!”
Kim Ijun ran excitedly towards them, and Yoo Yeon Seo was left alone, looking alternately at the clear sky and the clear sea, sighing.
‘Why did I co all the way here…’
Was he digging up the past? It was a resort under the clear sky he always dread of in 2207.
‘It’s so annoying.’
He couldn’t help but care, even though he tried not to. It seed that his body’s influence was strong.
He should have never started the mory synchronization… He ruffled his hair roughly and shook his head from side to side.
