HTSAAL-TI [Season 1-3] [Mini novel]

Season 1. 39

Chapter 39

Yi Jae furrowed his brows and played the video on his smartphone.

[OPENING (Performance Ver.) - M8 | RISING STAR | STAGE 0 Pre-release | Full Version]

The beat was slightly slow, and there was no basic technique.

It was more like 'doing a set choreography' rather than 'dancing'.

But the Yoo Hyun he saw today at least gave off the feeling of dancing. Although he still had a long way to go.

'This can't be acting, right?'

He doesn't know about other fields, but it's hard for someone who's good at dancing to pretend they're bad at dancing.

In the first place, it didn't make sense to put that much risk on someone who's called the center.

'Then that means he only grew in two weeks.'

At that moment, Jeong Min, who had quickly recovered, got up from the sofa and plopped himself down next to Yi Jae.

"Why are you even increasing their views?"

"Don't bother me."

Yi Jae answered curtly, and Jeong Min clicked his tongue.

"Don't you have any pride? You always ignore them when they say hello, so why do you even watch their videos? Because their pretty?"

Yi Jae, who had been teasing Jung Min, soon raised the corners of his lips playfully and said.

"That's good, but you even said hello to them. You even kept saying that you missed Sung Jun hyung."

"Hey, when did I!!"

"When we debuted."

"That's because you told me to be the leader instead of that hyung!"

Jung Min's face turned red and he snapped.

"I became the leader because you said you'd go out with him! And you cried too!! When he said he was going out!"

Yi Jae's face turned red.

"Shut up, you crybaby! You cry three times a day."

"Wow~ Hey, don't spread false rumors!!  When did I!"

The Tighten members find their earphones one by one as if they are used to the noise of the two people.

Yi Jae, who won today, smiled proudly. And he stared blankly at the M8 stage video that was still playing on his phone.

For Yi Jae, an elementary school student who was cast while doing horizontal bars at the playground, the life of a trainee was extremely unfamiliar.

The boy who won first place without much effort no matter where he went was no longer there.

The first person to recognize Yi Jae, who was feeling down, was Sungjun.

To Yi Jae, Sungjun was like a family member and a role model, and debuting with Sungjun was a future that would definitely come true.

The years he spent believing that were as long as 4 years.

Yi Jae glanced at his eldest brother, who was quietly fiddling with his phone.

'If only it weren't for that....................'

Hyungwoo boasted that he would somehow bring Sungjun back.

But in the end, Sungjun never came back.

At first, Yi Jae was just angry.

Even the members of M8, who debuted with Sungjun, seemed to be the ones who stole his dream.
