A Regression Guide for Idols Who Lost Their Initial Intentions Episode 84

 

 

The , planned as a total of 8 episodes, was now approaching its final episode.

 

[-I don’t see any konjac.]

[What Doby picked up was….]

[-Thread konjac is still konjac.]

[Thread konjac that’s not konjac!?]

-Oh my god Doby that’s not it!

-What kind of “even a fall is still rock” level logic is this

└But thread konjac is still konjac

-It already seems ruined Yehyeon… what do we do…

-Pray for Hajun

 

[-Should I just slice it like this? Or do I need to peel the skin? The surface?]

[Starting to slice as is?]

-Yuje, the carrot… the carrot…

-I want to rush in there right now and peel that carrot properly

-I’m really glad there’s a no-communication rule

└Why is that fortunate…?

└If he saw that mess, our Hajun would probably grab his neck and collapse

└He’ll probably grab his neck and collapse just seeing the finished product

 

[-Finally, it’s my turn.]

[4th batter appears★]

-Why is Yoon Eden appearing like some hidden cooking master lol

-Ah lol Doby didn’t mature, that was a cooking ingredient lol

-Eden, I only trust you. It seems already ruined from the earlier steps, but I believe you’ll save it

└Did you forget the strawberry cake from hell

 

[-However, konjac should first be boiled for 3 minutes in water with vinegar, then rinsed in cold water before adding….]

[Precautions discovered too late]

[-It can’t be helped. Since it’s thread konjac, it should cook quickly even without boiling.]

[And his wishful thinking]

-It’s beyond recovery now

-Of all people, the three hopeless cooking brothers took on the important roles in sequence…

-Hajun, it’s a bit late but let’s start practicing Halli Galli from now on

 

[-Is this really right?]

[The completed tteokbokki… no, something that can’t be called tteokbokki]

[-This is… tteokbokki…?]

-That’s exactly what I want to say,,,

-Humanely speaking, you can’t force someone to eat this. Forcing them would be poisoning

-No way, Yoon Eden and Gyeon Hajun are already standing by with digestive medicine lol

 

[-I think it would harm my health if I eat this, so I’ll stop eating.]

[Hajun declares surrender!]

-You really can’t criticize this as unprofessional

-For real, anyone who criticizes should have that stuff poured down their throat

-Wow, Yoon Eden really ‘only’ does Tornado Omelette well

└That only has eggs as ingredients lol

 

The relay cooking episode that achieved 500,000 views on YouTube replay and.

 

[-We’re finally moving out.]

[-Goodbye, semi-basement! I won’t miss you!]

[Final farewell to the old dormitory they had somehow grown attached to]

-Yeah right, as if they grew attached

-The kids’ expressions are so damn bright lol

 

[-Welcome to Rev’s sweet house!]

[-Amazing, there are four whole rooms!]

[-Wow, we can each have our own bed.]

-My babies are so pitiful, really

 

[-Anyone want a private room?]

[Four hands shoot up simultaneously as soon as the words finish!]

-Aren’t you guys making your business relationship too obvious;;;

-I naturally thought Eden would want to room with Hajun…

-Hearing the kids’ reasons, I think I understand why they all want private rooms

-Oh, Eden was an only child. I somehow thought he’d be an only child, or a pampered youngest

 

[-Rejected! Rejected!]

[The owner of the private room just won’t be decided!]

[What do we do in times like this?]

-Rock paper scissors!

-When this happens, the person who doesn’t really want the private room usually gets it

└Hajun gets the private room?

 

[-Doby, let’s switch rooms. If you switch with hyung, I’ll give you 100,000 won.]

[The leader attempts persuasion]

-Wow, Doby is tough. He won’t even fall for Eden’s solo song

-But somehow I feel like puppy-like-person will get tired of the private room quickly lol

 

[Final room arrangement results]

[Yoon Eden & Seo Yehyeon]

[Gyeon Hajun & Ryu Jaehee]

[Kim Dobin]

-Eldest hyung and leader are roommates again lol

-I really like the room arrangement

└Please don’t change rooms, guys

-It would have been better if the same-age pair roomed together, shame,,,

 

Miss Kim, who had been actively commenting during the dormitory move and room selection episode, logged onto the site to participate in the final episode’s live commentary as well.

As soon as Rev members’ sullen faces appeared on TV, comments started flooding the forum.

 

[-You said you’d send us on a healing trip! We were expecting at least a cruise or Europe trip!]

[What the production crew promised: Healing trip (O) Ultra-luxury trip (X)]

-Doby looks so wronged lol

-But since when was glamping a healing trip like Dobin said

-Healing is healing, and glamping sites are rest places too

 

Miss Kim was very displeased with the broadcasting company’s attitude of trying to get away with just sending them to a glamping site in the Seoul suburbs after making the kids suffer so much from being trapped in the mountain lodge due to heavy snow.

They should at least send them to Jeju Island or something.

 

[-Let’s be satisfied that we don’t have to pitch the tent ourselves, guys.]

[-Hajun hyung is like… if there’s half a cup of water left, he’d be like ‘there’s still half a cup of water left’.]

[-For now, I think just having barbecue in the evening schedule is healing enough.]

[-Youngest, isn’t your condition for healing too modest? It’s not even a tuna cutting show, just barbecue and you call it healing.]

-Tuna cutting show lol Yoon Rida wants a super luxurious course for healing lol

-Didn’t Eden put ideas in Dobin’s head? lol

 

The Rev members who had been chatting while sitting on chairs lined up in front of the glamping site room opened the door that looked like a big tent and went inside the room.

There was a bunk bed and one queen-size bed, and the bunk bed was wide enough for two people to sleep on each bed.

The bathroom was also as clean as the room.

 

[-Wow, it’s bigger than I thought.]

[-Oh, it’s cleaner and nicer than I expected?]

[-There’s a kitchen and shower room too?]

[-Hmm… I’ll give this about half passing marks as a healing trip.]

[We did our best~]

-Still, it’s not a cheap glamping site but a decent one

-Why is Dobin being so prim and proper lol

 

Coming back outside and sitting on chairs, Rev started chatting while pretending to reminisce about the past.

 

[-It’s already the last filming, time really flies.]

[-Right. It feels like yesterday when I was stopping Eden hyung who was shouting for comprehensive health checkups as content.]

[-Our Yuje has such good memory.]

[-I haven’t forgotten either.]

[-But we really do need to get health checkups. Viewers, please don’t forget to get regular health checkups too.]

-That health obsession freak for real ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Thanks to you I made a health checkup appointment, Eden

-Both content pieces that Rev chose ended up being huge hits lol

└The ocean… it wasn’t thanks to the ocean but thanks to the mountain lodge…

 

Miss Kim decided to schedule a health checkup in the near future after hearing her bias’s words, who had made people’s hearts drop with the hemoptysis rumor from the emergency room story.

Rev played foot volleyball on the sports field at the glamping site, and when dinner time came, they grilled and ate barbecue before gathering again in front of their room.

 

[-Don’t they usually do this kind of thing in the last episode? What is Rev to Eden?]

[-Ugh, that’s cringey.]

[-No, but hurry up and answer, hyung. What is Rev to you?]

[-My team.]

[-Not ‘our team’ but ‘my team’. Psychology test result: you are a person with very strong self-love!]

[-What are you saying, youngest. Why did psychology tests suddenly come up.]

[Yuje’s spine-chilling intuition!]

 

The camera that had been filming Rev turned toward the production crew, and the sentence written on the cue sheet the production crew hadn’t given yet, ‘What is Rev to OO?’ was zoomed in.

 

-Oh the youngest is quick to catch on

-But since Yehyeon said ‘my team’ instead of ‘our team’, he seems to carry a tremendous sense of responsibility

 

[-What is Rev to Yehyeon hyung?]

[-A second family?]

[-Positions! The members’ positions!]

[-First, Jaehee and Dobin are younger brothers I need to take care of, and Hajun is… should I say he’s like a mom or like a reliable eldest son who quietly takes care of his younger siblings.]

[-If Hajun hyung is the mom, then Eden hyung becomes the dad.]

[-I never had a dad like that!]

[-Wow, I’m hurt. I’m hurt by a son who doesn’t understand the weight of being the breadwinner.]

[-Yehyeon hyung already became Eden hyung’s son.]

[-No, fine, fine. Hajun is the mature eldest, Eden is the slightly immature second son.]

[-Then what’s your own position after giving up the eldest spot to Hajun hyung?]

[-Let’s push everyone back one spot. Hajun becomes the mature second son, Eden becomes the immature third son, and I’m the reliable eldest.]

[-I object. You’re not reliable at all. Honestly, I think the most reliable person in Rev is me, the leader.]

[-We, the youngest line, will make no comment.]

[Family-like conversation between family-like Rev members]

-What’s with the subtitles lololol why did you space it out like that lololol

-So they’re just five brothers under one roof? No mom and no dad? This is the first time I’ve seen a group like this

-Eden seems like Rev’s dad, a patriarchal father living with the burden of having to feed his family

└Ah seriously when he’s pretending to sleep and Yuje or Dobin try to secretly change the channel, he’d be like ‘hyung’s not sleeping’…

 

After Yehyeon’s turn ended, having created a growth narrative of five brothers who grew up without parents rather than the commonly seen nuclear family, questions were passed to the other members in turn.

Hajun answered safely with ‘our team’, and Dobin blatantly copied Yehyeon’s answer and got booed.

Yuje answered ‘a team that my future self can proudly call the best career of my life’ and received applause.

While laughing and talking about the manipulated ion curse and the isolation episode at Ghost Valley Lodge, Yuje suddenly spoke up.

 

[-Hyungs! I’m really curious about something. What did you all think when you first got our debut song?]

[-Come to think of it, we’ve never talked about this before.]

[-We were all consciously avoiding it.]

 

The music video for appeared as reference footage.

 

-Yuje finally brought up the forbidden song

-Youngest, there’s no way you don’t know this is forbidden…? Did you want to see the fans suffer…?

-Ahhhhh! Bring salt, salt! They finally put ‘that music video’ as reference footage!

-Wow it’s still terrible even listening to it again

-What’s that? Was there such a song?

-I can see why everyone desperately made it a forbidden song

 

Miss Kim also unconsciously covered her eyes.

She had become a fan through , but perhaps because her standards had gotten too high from Rev’s three consecutive hit activities.

She couldn’t bear to watch the video with her eyes open.

It felt like a past life that she had been looking for GIF material from such a music video.

 

[-Actually, after getting that song, I couldn’t even imagine a future where we’d become this popular.]

[Starting with the eldest hyung who calmly shared his inner thoughts…]

[-I couldn’t say it because I was afraid the mood would get dark, but it was grim, haha.]

[-I actually shed a few tears. The future really seemed hopeless. The only hope I had was that Yehyeon hyung’s face would overcome that terrible song and make us popular.]

[-I got the stage costume and thought it was a dream so I slapped my own cheek.]

[Rev gradually revealing their innermost feelings that they had kept hidden, worried about burdening each other]

-Ugh, this really makes me cry ㅜㅜㅜ Thank goodness their follow-up song “One Chance” took off, but the kids must have been so anxious…

-Just for composing One Chance and announcing the song’s existence on the fan cafe, Eden deserves a free pass once

└Ah for real, I’ll let it slide once even if you get artist syndrome

-Kim No-dap JNL just go die

 

Miss Kim, who had gone through that dark period together, also wiped away tears.

 

[-I obviously knew My Universe would fail, but discovering One Chance felt like finding emergency funds I had hidden away. As expected, my song. As expected, me.]

[Even in this moment, his unique inner thoughts]

-Give me back my emotions

-Really, Yoon Eden is such a character. He’s saying he wasn’t even anxious

 

At the sight of her bias speaking so confidently with a smirk, the tears instantly dried up.

Even while receiving jeers from the members, Eden boldly said that thanks to him, didn’t they get to do follow-up activities with One Chance.

Before they knew it, it was time to wrap up the broadcast.

 

[-There was so much we wanted to show you, but it’s too short, which is disappointing. We hope there will be another opportunity to show you more next time.]

[-Then we’ll say our goodbyes here.]

[-My Idol Observation Camera, goodbye!]

 

The members took turns delivering their ending comments. The farewell “goodbye” instead of “see you next time” truly indicated that this was the final episode.

 

-Show us even your sleeping and waking up scenes responsibly!

-Back to waiting endlessly for another reality show

 

As if hearing the fans’ support, scenes of Rev members falling into deep sleep and yawning as they woke up in the morning passed by briefly like a cookie video.

The screen froze with Eden’s final image of waving at the camera with half-open eyes.

 

[Thank you for watching until now!]
