A black van held in front of the turmoil you were in. Suddenly, your manager left the vehicle. He had a white suit on and was dressed like a real estate salesman. 

You were thankful for him in this moment. 

"Okay, okay, okay", the manager said. "Enough with the lies! This boy is as innocent as they come!" 

He smiled and laughed awkwardly

"No! That's not true", the oily dude exclaimed.

"Aish" The manager scuffed in this very distinctly korean way when he made sounds with his throat.

"Let's not make a fuss. These are rumors. Rumors!", the manager said. 

He quickly turned towards you. He whispered: "Get in the car or I'll rip your head off." 

You got in the car.  It was cold. The air conditioning ran at full steam. You didn't care anymore. You were tired, just tired. You let your shoulders hang lose, and closed your eyes. You were mentally preparing to get screamed at. 

The manager waved his hands at the paparrazi and signaled them to calm down. "All is well, all is well". He again smiled very widely, then he bowed and jumped in the van. The manager signaled the driver to start, then shut the doors  quickly.  You could still hear the reporters screaming. Even though the windows were tinted, the flash lights seemed to penetrate them. 

You prepared yourself to get screamed at. "Mr. Kim, I really... I..." 

  Mr. Kim slowly shaked his body, like a volcano that was about to erupt. With his suit, he looked like he was about to preach to an evangelical congregation. "What did you even think! You brat, you nasty brat." 

The more he moved, the louder he talked. 

"All of the employees are working for your future. And then, you are caught in a dating scandal. With two women! This is beyond bad. This is an outrage!" 

"I'm very sorry.", you said and bowed, like it was expected.

He scuffed again. 

"Aish, I dont want to hear that. Tell that to Hyun-Woo here, when he loses his job due to your foolishness."

"Eh?", the driver said. 

Fuck. I'm really selfish, am I not?  

After the van pulled on the highway, you suddenly realized something.

"No, it can't be..." 

We are not driving to the training building in Hongdae. We are driving to the main building in Mapo-Gu. 

The manager smiled again. But not in the Korean-ish saving face manner. He smiled arrogantly. 

"Good luck, boy." 

Oh no. Oh no no no no.
