A Regression Guide for Idols Who Lost Their Initial Intentions Episode 90

I spotted Ryu Jaehee talking to someone in the broadcasting station corridor and immediately approached, casually draping my arm over his shoulder.

“What are you doing, youngest?”

“Exchanging numbers!”

I saw it was a member from a senior boy group that debuted about 8 or 9 months before us.

“Hello.”

“Ah, yes… hello.”

I lowered my eyes and looked down at the guy in front of me while greeting him, making him flinch and avoid my gaze.

Even with pink-colored hair, it seems his intimidating impression can’t be neutralized.

I grabbed Ryu Jaehee, who clearly wanted to continue the conversation with the other person, and pulled him away.

“Let’s go.”

“Contact me!”

As soon as the guy was far away, I snatched the phone from Jaehee’s hand and immediately deleted the number.

“Ah, why! I want to build connections too!”

“If you want to build connections, associate with decent guys. Not guys like that.”

That guy was a member of the male idol social circle that Choi Hyeonmin belonged to before my regression.

Rather than watch Ryu Jaehee hang out with guys like that and become a club addict, I’d rather have my initial intentions score decrease and crack those guys’ heads open.

Ryu Jaehee narrowed his eyes at my advice and asked.

“Why? Do you know something, hyung?”

“He’s close with Choi Hyeonmin.”

“KICKS Hyeonmin that I know? Hmm, I think I get it. Birds of a feather is science.”

As expected of someone quick-witted, Ryu Jaehee seemed to understand perfectly and nodded, then sent an appropriate reply to the text from that guy’s number before deleting it without regret.

Today was the last music show of [HI-Light]’s 4-week promotion.

Rev was solidly listed as a first place candidate again today.

“If Rev wins first place today, we will carry each other on our backs while singing the encore song.”

Standing next to the MCs, I recited the first place promise that came from Rev’s 89th meeting in front of the camera.

Unfortunately, we lost the triple crown since we lost first place once each at Music Camp and Music Center to a rival girl group, but it seemed possible to aim for the main prize in the music source category for the second quarter at this year’s year-end awards ceremony.

had been maintaining first place on the music charts for 11 days.

I held up one finger and waved it toward the camera, meaning to vote for number 1.

When I returned to the waiting room and slightly pushed up the sports headband on my head.

The stylist poured out a stream of nagging, asking why I was touching it when it was perfectly fitted.

“How did you keep wearing this during the All Night All Right music video shoot? I’m going crazy wanting to push it up and expose your forehead.”

“Right, that’s kind of annoying.”

Ryu Jaehee, who had to wear a sports headband throughout the music video shoot, nodded vigorously in strong agreement.

It feels like just yesterday we were in the very first slot for music show stages, but Rev now gets scheduled for quite late in the lineup.

[Wherever you want to go

I’ll take you anywhere

Just say the word My Love]

Since it was an upbeat and bouncy song, the choreography wasn’t intense as Seo Yehyeon had complained about earlier.

But Seo Yehyeon, who used to make mistakes five times even in this kind of choreography, now doesn’t make more than three mistakes on stage. It was remarkable progress.

But the question is whether Seo Yehyeon can perform knife-sharp choreography without mistakes in the next promotion as he boldly promised.

[If your heart pounds like mine

Please tell me that’s true

So let me love you]

I made a shooting gesture and winked lightly.

I’ve passed the stage of feeling embarrassed. The past Yoon Eden who insisted that awkwardly smiling was the maximum level of aegyo when first performing a fresh song on stage is dead.

Since this was the last music broadcast of this promotion, the other members also clearly increased their ad-libs compared to usual.

Ryu Jaehee was showing off his charm almost at the level of a talent show.

After coming down from the stage and finishing monitoring, it was time for the long-awaited first place announcement.

“The glorious first place winner of the third week of April! The protagonist is…”

Just until the previous promotion, they would be dying of anxiety right before the announcement, but now seeing the members standing calmly without any sign of nervousness made me let out a small laugh.

“Congratulations, Rev!”

Pop! Confetti flew everywhere.

After receiving the trophy and bouquet, I naturally passed the microphone to Seo Yehyeon.

Listening to the even louder cheers during Seo Yehyeon’s acceptance speech, I waved the trophy and bouquet toward Daydream in the fan section.

The intro of started playing. It was time to keep our first place promise on the encore stage.

While I was wondering who to carry on my back, Ryu Jaehee quickly ran toward me and jumped up, getting on my back.

I almost staggered from the heavy weight suddenly pressing on my back but managed to endure it.

“Damn, I was going to be the one getting carried.”

When Gyeon Hajun grumbled during his part, Ryu Jaehee giggled while bringing the microphone he was holding close to my mouth since my part was coming up.

“Hajun hyung, Doby hyung already claimed you.”

“I was going to carry you.”

When I pushed the microphone away and replied, Ryu Jaehee told me to find my lost conscience.

I lightly responded that I never had one to begin with and continued with my part.

I let out a sigh of relief watching Kim Dobin get down from Gyeon Hajun’s back, panting, and quickly approach Seo Yehyeon who was alone to get on his back.

I was going to shake off Ryu Jaehee and get on Seo Yehyeon’s back before rumors of Seo Yehyeon being left out started, but this worked out well. The room would have been awkward again.

* * *

-Yuje really likes the leader type lol Everyone else was playing the waiting game but he went straight to Yoon Leader without any hesitation

-Hajun and Yehyeon staggered a bit when Doby got on their backs but Eden was rock-solid

└Isn’t it because Yuje is smaller and lighter than Doby?

└How much difference is there between Yuje and Doby’s builds lol

└Ah yes yes, Hajun and Yehyeon are weak anchovy types who don’t even do leg workouts while Yoon Eden is a fucking strong gym bro who can easily handle a 1000kg total for the big three lifts

-Why is Doby running around panting like that, so mom-like hehe The moment he saw Yehyeon alone, he immediately got down from Hajun’s back and ran over, total mom behavior

The fan community spinning around with 70% talking to themselves and 30% fighting as usual today.

Miss Kim, who was contemplating whether to join the fight, abandoned her worries and immediately rushed over when she saw the OA app live notification pop up at the top of her phone.

[On Air] Legal Cheat Day! (Feat. Eldest Hyung’s Permission)

“Hello, Daydream. This is a commemorative eating broadcast for the last day of promotions.”

Suddenly, Eden’s face appeared on screen.

Eden’s face, which had been filling the camera, moved away and showed the delivery food spread across the table in the dorm living room – chicken, pizza, oven spaghetti, pig’s feet, and more.

Fans who knew how strictly Yehyeon usually manages their diet were looking for Yehyeon’s whereabouts.

[Wait, it’s past 6 PM right now]

[Where’s Yehyeon? Looking for Yehyeon who should be rushing over like a wasp uncle]

[Did Yehyeon faint after seeing that?]

[Didn’t they tie him up and lock him somewhere knowing he’d object, and the four of them ordered this? lol]

“For reference, this filming is taking place with Yehyeon hyung’s permission.”

“It’s been a while since we ate anything after 6 PM. Food intake other than water after 6 PM was just nearly impossible…”

At Doby’s pointed words while pretending to wipe away tears, Yehyeon came from the kitchen holding a bowl of salad and asked back.

“Ah, what about those snacks you ate a few days ago? Aren’t those food too?”

“That was because of unavoidable circumstances that hyung agreed to understand.”

At his aggrieved expression and tone, Yehyeon obediently backed down.

[If it’s circumstances Yehyeon would understand, hypoglycemia? Does our baby have hypoglycemia?]

[Ah… don’t tell me… that…]

[It might be because of that incident… though…]

The fans who roughly guessed the situation didn’t add more comments and instead shifted to teasing Yehyeon, who was looking at the food on the table with troubled eyes.

[Calculating calories in his head lol]

[Actually Yehyeon had a calorie scouter in his eyes all along]

“Wow, 4 weeks went by fast. I can’t believe this album’s activities are already over.”

“Right, I wanted to see Daydream for much longer.”

[Let’s go for follow-up song activities with the highlight film]

[It should be at least a month, what’s this 4 weeks nonsense]

[Where did the youngest go?]

“Yuje’s special ramen has arrived!”

Yuje appeared with perfect timing, carrying a pot and placing it on the stand, then went back to the kitchen to bring another pot.

[Are the ramen types different?]

[Did you divide it because there was too much?]

“Ah, the reason there are two pots is because ever since the mushy noodle faction and the firm noodle faction had a fight, we just cook them separately. Our youngest line likes firm noodles, and Hajun hyung and Eden hyung like mushy noodles. What about Yehyeon hyung? Yehyeon hyung doesn’t eat ramen, so he’s excluded.”

Yuje answered the question while checking the live chat on his personal phone.

“You fought? When?”

At Eden’s bewildered expression, Yuje pointed accusingly at him.

“Hyung, you shouldn’t say that! You’re the one who took away the ramen we were eating and re-cooked it, asking why we brought undercooked ramen, starting the prelude to chaos!”

“Me?”

Eden pointed at himself with his finger and asked. At his expression that seemed like he didn’t remember, Yuje shook his head.

“Even if it was before debut, it wasn’t even 2 years ago.”

[As of today, I withdraw my support for Yoon Eden. Forcing mushy noodles crosses the line, seriously]

[Taking it away and re-cooking it is so ridiculous lololol what a legend]

[How did it escalate to a fight]

Doby, who was sneakily checking the chat next to Yuje, smirked.

“Honestly, it’s unfair to even call it a fight. We were the ones who got unilaterally beaten up.”

“Doby hyung, you can’t phrase it so misleadingly. It wasn’t physical but mental… no, this sounds weird too…”

Sensing that the longer he spoke, the weirder it got, Yuje rambled while scratching his cheek, and Hajun quickly stepped in to fix it.

“Anyway, after we found out our tastes were different, we’ve been cooking separately.”

[Eden gives in on everything else but can’t give in on ramen lol]

[Heartwarming respect-for-preferences ending]

[Kids, instead of doing that, just take out the firm noodles first and cook the rest longer]

“Ah, that method. It was getting annoying with more dishes to wash anyway.”

“Yehyeon hyung, would you like some chicken breast from the chicken in your salad?”

“It’s fine. This is enough for hyung.”

Seeing the salad with only vegetables, Doby subtly held up some chicken breast and offered it, but Yehyeon declined as expected.

Even though I deliberately placed it far from Yehyeon, he still managed to get up and look into the abyss of the pot, narrowing his eyes.

“But why does this look like so much? How many packs is this total?”

“Four packs per pot.”

“Two people are eating four packs?”

As Yehyeon’s already large eyes grew even larger, Yuje timidly protested.

“We ordered chicken and pizza too, so we cooked less than usual.”

[Why did I think all the kids were light eaters until now… you’re also growing boys…]

[If four packs for two people is less, how much do you usually eat…?]

[Yehyeon’s expression right now is on the verge of fainting]

[They must have eaten so secretly to avoid Yehyeon’s eyes for him to be this shocked lol]
