Chapter 226 An Unexpected Outing (2)

The post in Kim Makki’s account, 'that post', was uploaded a few days later, in the early hours of the morning.

Kairos had just finished their first music show activities and official schedules. Except for a few fan signings and events, there were no other opportunities to meet the fans.

This meant that even the smallest news about the Kairos members was cherished by the fans.

Today at 2 AM,

I’ll spill the info on a rookie male idol who partied at a club with a bottle of alcohol~

There’s a photo too

—

It started with a light attention-seeking post that targeted every rookie male idol in the industry.

The term “rookie” referred to any idol group that had debuted within the last two years, and it was so broad that it was difficult to be certain whether it included groups that people would recognize.

Sometimes, these attention-grabbing posts would end up revealing information about groups that even the most seasoned fans in the industry would question with a, “Who’s that?”

Because of this, Kim Makki, seeing the lukewarm response to his initial bait, decided to release a bit more specific information.

Hint for the male idol with the bottle at the club:

Red~

It was such an annoying piece of bait that you’d want to flick him on the forehead if you could.

In reality, if no one had paid attention to it and let it be drowned in the flood of information, Kim Makki might have lost interest and stopped there.

An unnoticed anonymous account would just remain a pitiful new account, neither more nor less.

But unfortunately, Kim Makki’s bait this time managed to draw quite a bit of attention.

Hajin, who proudly said he’d become an idol!

As soon as you got a day off,

Instead of practicing, you went to the club and drank until you had fun, huh? lol

Satisfied with the reaction, Kim Makki uploaded the photos he had obtained, along with some exaggerations.

Whether those photos were really of Hajin or not didn’t matter to him.
What mattered was that they 'looked convincing' .

Making people think, '“It could be true.”'

In the deep hours of the night, when even those who would weigh the objectivity and ethics of the information and determine the truth had turned off their phones for a while,

The rumor of '“Kang Hajin spotted at a club”' surfaced.

—

“…Unbelievable.”

And, of course—,

“Are they really trying to pin every possible idol rumor on me?”

The subject of the rumor, Kang Hajin, was well aware of it too.
