A Regression Guide for Idols Who Lost Their Initial Intentions Episode 357
* * *
On the morning of departure, the dormitory was bustling with activity.
I loosely tied a muffler over a T-shirt and draped a short coat over it. The point was to just drape it over my shoulders without actually wearing it.
It was a fashion that caught two birds with one stone – fashionable yet convenient enough to become summer fashion just by throwing off the outer coat and muffler.
The only thing I gave up was warmth.
As I looked in the mirror and finally placed sunglasses on my chin, Kim Dobin, who had been pushed aside while combing his hair, gaped at my outfit.
“Hyung, won’t you be cold?”
I clicked my tongue looking at Kim Dobin wearing a thick fleece hoodie. That hoodie maniac. A hoodie again?
“The cold is temporary, but photos are forever.”
As I swept up my left bangs and spoke stylishly, Ryu Jaehee looked at me with sparkling eyes. This is how I accumulate respect from the youngest member again.
Since it seems difficult to earn respect through intelligence, let me diligently build up respect through fashion. That way, it’ll be much easier to outsource intelligence work later.
Kim Dobin, who shook his head with an uncomprehending expression and wrapped his scarf around his neck without any style, scolded me.
“Please dress warmly. At this rate, hyung will become the cause of increased cold patients this winter.”
“Why would I be the cause of that?”
“We’re leaving for a warm country, but people who copy hyung will have to endure this winter’s sub-zero temperatures.”
“They’ll figure it out themselves. There are people who value fashion more than warmth. If they want to stick to their beliefs, why is that because of me?”
I wondered if this would actually become popular, but thinking about the fashions I had made trendy in DTB 4, even though I couldn’t understand why they became popular, this fashion wasn’t without possibility either.
As I responded half-heartedly to Kim Dobin’s words and messed up his hair telling him to retie his scarf properly, Kim Dobin lifted up that terrible punishment hoodie and grinned.
“I’ll pray that hyung gets selected. This is fluffy and warm.”
“You’re really cursing me. Why don’t you just hold a ritual ceremony for me to get selected?”
When the hand that was messing up his hair pressed painfully on his crown, Kim Dobin quickly escaped from my reach and brought over a ladder game board that was sealed with tape on all four sides.
“Now, now, the time has finally come to select the owner of this rabbit hoodie that I specially procured!”
Everyone sat around the ladder game board with grim expressions.
There was a world of difference between doing fan service on the way to schedules and having my casual fashion taste misunderstood on the way to vacation. At least from my perspective.
“You have no idea how much trouble I went through to protect this ladder game board until today…”
Kim Dobin pretended to wipe tears while making subtly pointed remarks. I just wanted to look, but this hyung feels wronged for being misunderstood as trying to cheat after seeing the results early.
The pen, well, the lines seemed so faint that I was just trying to make them clearer?
When I casually shrugged my shoulders, Kim Dobin let out a sigh that seemed openly annoyed. Still, the fact that I didn’t feel like punching him probably meant I had become much more gentle with Kim Dobin.
That ruthless guy made me look uncool and still didn’t trust us, so he flipped the ladder game paper to the back and put thick transparent tape on every corner.
Kim Dobin, who had cleanly removed the five Post-its covering the results, turned to me with a suggestion.
“Since we should respect our elders, Eden Hyung should go first.”
“If we’re respecting elders, shouldn’t I go first since I’m the eldest hyung? He’s the third oldest.”
Seo Yehyeon suddenly interjected, asserting his authority as the eldest.
The leader’s authority doesn’t fall from things like this. Because the concept of leader’s authority never existed in Rev in the first place.
The head of household’s authority would be different though.
“Right, Doby, since you said to respect elders and not about the leader, Yehyeon Hyung should go first. What can we do?”
Seo Yehyeon, who became first due to my concession, began climbing the ladder with a very tense expression.
“Please, ah- please… Why do I keep thinking about how dreams are the opposite…?”
Kim Dobin kept glancing at Seo Yehyeon with eyes like a dog looking at its owner who had made a mistake.
The closer he got to O, the more Seo Yehyeon’s finger trembled. Now there was only one ladder left. Seo Yehyeon’s finger went down the last ladder.
Just one line.
Because of that one line, Seo Yehyeon successfully avoided the crisis of being chosen for the penalty costume.
“Ahhhhh! The ancestral spirits helped me, the ancestral spirits! Wow, that dream was really prophetic!”
Whether it was from his paternal or maternal side, wherever it was, Seo Yehyeon prostrated himself toward the north with a moved expression, saying he was grateful anyway.
Did he commune with ancestral spirits when drawing the line? Why is he so happy while calling on ancestral spirits?
I thought indifferently while seeing that Gyeon Hajun’s finger had also safely reached X.
And that one line Seo Yehyeon drew…
“It’s a circle! I got chosen! Ryu Jae, we’re saved!”
Played a decisive role in me getting chosen.
Wondering if I couldn’t see the black line because I was wearing black sunglasses, I lowered my sunglasses and tried the ladder again, but the result was the same.
I have to give up this fashion and wear that thing…? I began to enter denial of reality as I looked down at my clothes that I could say I bought solely for today.
As if there was any need to turn someone’s outfit upside down, Seo Yehyeon was cheerfully laughing and clapping beside me, congratulating me.
“Wait a minute.”
What pulled me out of despair was a single word from Gyeon Hajun.
“This line definitely wasn’t there before.”
“Jun, what did you say?”
I grabbed Gyeon Hajun’s shoulders and shook him, asking if that was really true. Nodding his head, Gyeon Hajun subtly escaped from my grip.
“Yeah. I remember that line not being there when I saw it at dawn. But when I looked in the morning, it seemed like there was an extra line there? You were blocking it and Dobin had flipped it over, so I couldn’t check exactly.”
Oh, so I almost shot myself in the foot.
“But now that I look at it, there’s definitely one more line.” “Now that you mention it, the color is strangely different, isn’t it? The line thickness is different too?”
When Ryu Jaehee, who had been staring intently at the paper, continued after Gyeon Hajun’s words, like a thief getting nervous, Kim Dobin slyly reached for the ladder game chart while mumbling.
“Well, now that it’s over, let’s dispose of this-”
“Don’t touch the pa- I mean paper! Your hand will fly off.”
When I firmly grabbed Kim Dobin’s wrist and glared at him, the startled Kim Dobin immediately let go of the paper. Gyeon Hajun grabbing the paper and bringing it close to his eyes was one step faster than Seo Yehyeon snatching it.
“Someone drew this line later.”
The identity of the guy who drew that line late was obvious.
Like Seo Yehyeon whose face had turned pale, or Seo Yehyeon muttering about whether prophetic dreams are called prophetic dreams because they can’t be changed, or Seo Yehyeon who kept glancing at the penalty costume with an expression like the world had collapsed.
“Hey, Kim Dobin.”
When I deliberately put on a serious face and called Kim Dobin in a low voice, Kim Dobin’s face and body stiffened for the first time in a while.
“I’ll give you 5 seconds to explain. 5, 4, 3-”
“I fell for the honey trap!”
Kim Dobin obediently confessed.
“Yehyeon Hyung, did ancestral spirits appear in your dream and advise you to draw one more line? Instead of using ancestral spirits only for things like this, ask those prophetic ancestral spirits to pick our regular album comeback date too.”
“No, through a prophetic dream…”
When I asked Seo Yehyeon, who still hadn’t come to his senses, he replied with a dazed face, not even knowing what he was saying.
What were Ancestor Yoon and Ancestor Lee doing that they didn’t save their descendant when he almost fell into such slander?
Anyway, that line, which was no different from breaking the rules, was erased, and when the ladder game resumed in that state, the result was reversed to what it should have been originally.
I laughed with satisfaction while watching Seo Yehyeon sighing once every 3 seconds as he changed into the penalty costume.
Isn’t this exactly what implementing justice looks like?

Even if it were an official schedule, nothing good would come out of it, but it’s even photos of the kids at the airport on their vacation…lol
Let’s not take or consume unauthorized airport photos. Is your right to enjoy retweets, likes, and eye candy more important than my precious singers’ privacy??

I’m more pissed at those defending sasaeng behavior saying it’s because there are no press photos
If you’re gonna be like that, don’t call yourself a fan lol Don’t drag all of Daydream down with your hate
The kids know what they’re doing and upload photos they took themselves, but you can’t even wait that long, sigh

Hawaii was heaven.
To be precise, I should say that the time spent escaping from Korea’s cold winter to enjoy a life of playing, eating, and sleeping at a resort, playing in the water at a private beach, learning surfing, and working out at the hotel fitness center was heaven.
Although I had to slather on sunscreen every hour under Seo Yehyeon’s blade-like gaze, the leisure I enjoyed in Hawaii was quite blissful.
“Major incident!”
Kim Dobin, who had gone to the hotel saying he left his portable battery in the room, came running breathlessly to the parasol on the private beach with the face of someone who had brought breaking news.
“Hyungs, do you know who I saw?”
“Did you see a Hollywood star or something?”
When I asked indifferently while lying on the sunbed and sipping a drink through a straw, Kim Dobin shook his head, confirmed that everyone’s attention was focused on him, and whispered in a lowered voice as if revealing some huge secret.
“Senior Cha Yeonho and Senior KJ.”
