Episode 217
He uncrossed his arms and added triumphantly.
“Just wait and see.”
The variety show bureau chief drew a V with his fingers. His confident expression was filled with certainty.
“The trailer’s coming out soon.”

While listening to the radio, Aetami didn’t show her overwhelming emotions today either. Today was the last day of Han Yeoreum’s special DJ stint.
‘Yeoreum… Let’s do ASMR just one more time…’
Listening to Yeoreum’s voice through wireless earphones while working seemed to boost her efficiency by 1,200%. It felt like she was reading text that appeared before her eyes and understanding it directly with her mind.
Han Yeoreum’s voice with its clear delivery created the illusion of reading printed text.
I was cracking up the entire time I was listening~ When you were reading the stories, it felt like watching a drama..ㅋ The sound of laughter kept echoing in my ears so I ended up coming back to listen to the full version againㅠ;; The first story is so heart-fluttering, I wish someone would turn it into a drama~
-Fuck, let’s preserve Hanyeoreum forever next to Sim Juhwan… How amazing would it be if their voices harmonized together ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Damn, please just do it with me for even just one day
You’re quite the learned person
I listen to radio a lot but this is the first time a special DJ has been this good.. I guess it’s because they’re an actor, even when reading listener stories it’s incredible ㅋㅋㅋ I hope they become an official DJ someday so I can tune in regularly
Aetami wasn’t the only one feeling this way. Comments kept increasing. This wasn’t just a simple radio video.
‘It’s so nice listening to it every day…’
The acting world was already suffering from a daily drought of content. But to think she’d provide such regular fan service material. She hadn’t expected this when she first started following Yeoreum.
-Well then, 2 o’clock nap time, the time is gradually approaching when we all need to wake up together… Yes, listener 2245. I’m really sad too. Next time when Senior Sim Juhwan is here, I’ll definitely come visit again. Listener 4489, does Han Yeoreum like dumplings? Yes. I like dumplings. And… Huh?
Yeoreum paused briefly and trailed off. Aetami unconsciously pressed the wireless earphone in her left ear.
‘What is it?’
Not being able to see made her even more curious. That’s when a pleasant laugh flowed out.
-Senior Sim Juhwan just texted saying he’ll remember all of you. He’s been watching the whole time as everyone switched from DJ Sim to DJ Han.
There seemed to be many texts flooding in with Sim Juhwan’s appearance. Yeoreum read through the selected messages with quick but precise pronunciation.
-Listener 1122 says DJ Sim betrayed us first… Senior, you’ll have to apologize when you come back, won’t you? Listener 1234 says Sim Juhwan? Who’s that?… Oh, don’t tease him. The writers are saying Senior Sim is crying right now.
It was live. There was no script. Nevertheless, Han Yeoreum naturally inserted jokes throughout.
As if she’d been a radio DJ for a long time. Her way of building rapport with listeners seemed convincing.
-Everyone. But you’ll still welcome Senior Sim warmly when he comes back, right? You need to talk to him a lot tomorrow.
She seemed to properly understand that radio was two-way communication, not one-way. Aetami smiled proudly.
-Then I’ll say goodbye with the last song. This is a song I really love.
With Yeoreum’s farewell, familiar music began to play.
‘Ah, this…!’
Aetami recognized it just from the intro.
-Even on a dark night when moonlight is dim
The reason I’m not afraid
Is because of your hand holding mine
It was the song she sang as an event at the Taiwan fan meeting. It was also suitable as a farewell song. Aetami recalled the Taiwan fan meeting with the song flowing from her left ear as background music.
‘Yeoreum…’
To avoid showing her overwhelming emotions, Aetami looked up at the ceiling.
“Summer! Want to go get coffee?”
Someone called her. For reference, that English name was unavoidably created due to the company’s policy of pursuing a horizontal organizational culture.
“No… I’m fully awake…”
“That’s unusual. You haven’t had coffee all week.”
“That wake-up stretching? It seems to be effective. She lifts her head like that around this time every day.”
“Should we try it too?”
Her colleagues’ voices didn’t even register in her ears.
‘【M Couple】 should be coming out soon too…?’
【Faster Than Law】 released script reading articles last week, so JC ENM would officially upload the video, and a longer version would likely appear on 【M Couple】.
While happily planning her timetable, Aetami’s cell phone rang.
Buzz-.
[Shit the trailer’s out let’s go]
It was a message from Reporter Wi. Aetami hurriedly checked the link.
Intube
[M Couple/ A know-it-all returning student came? I attended for one year and took one year off… I don’t know the school well…? But why do I know it so well Ep Han Yeoreum] 01:27
After watching the trailer, Aetami interlaced her fingers and cracked her knuckles.
Crack-!
A satisfying sound rang out. Aetami also shook her creaking shoulders.
“Wow, Summer is still doing her wake-up stretches.”
Thanks to colleagues coming in with coffee, her nose was filled with fragrance. Aetami felt herself awakened as if injected with caffeine and began taking screenshots.
‘Once the main broadcast starts, the ship needs to move diligently!’
She’d probably need to make several screenshot compilations. Because,
-hahahahaha wait what is this hahahaha
-So cute ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ Living such a busy life is vicariously satisfying
-What is this little brother’s face? MS GY JPY hurry up and move… No, this is so confusing, why do we have to see that face so briefly??????
What the… suddenly confused
Reactions were already coming in.

“Hey, you really need to be careful.”
“I know.”
“Be careful how you act at school.”
“I always have been.”
“Right. When friends ask for noona’s autograph, don’t refuse, okay? We can’t have people saying you’ve already caught celebrity disease.”
The two looked at the 【M Couple】 trailer with determined expressions. The interest in Han Taeyang shown in the trailer was considerable.
-I’ll call you new unnie
Excuse me; please get in line;;
-Holy shit.. what the hell, he’s basically an idol lol Even God-Bani would have a hard time looking this good on camera ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠugh
-We’re already short on male actors, let’s use him. This is the talent we’ve been waiting for, exactly this
ㄴ The agencies are probably already waiting in front of the school with their business cards
The video was short so the content couldn’t be properly confirmed, but one thing was certain.
Views: 52,331
Once the main broadcast started, as always, clip view counts with Han Yeoreum’s name would skyrocket.
“Anyway, I’m going to school.”
“I’ll say it one more time. Who are you? You’re the younger brother of Han Yeoreum, the rising actress who won the Baekryong Film Festival Rookie Award and the Arts Awards Rookie Award, and created a cable TV miracle. Act properly.”
“I said I know.”
Taeyang put on his shoes, leaving behind Han Yeoreum who was unusually awake from early morning. From the elevator down to walking to school, he felt gazes following him.
‘Han Yeoreum must deal with this every day.’
Because her movie hit ten million viewers and her starring drama exceeded 20% ratings. Passersby would all recognize her.
On the other hand, Han Taeyang found the excessive attention burdensome. Even when trying to walk as inconspicuously as possible, he felt eyes on him.
‘There’s definitely going to be an autograph problem.’
Entering the classroom, Han Taeyang sighed. Obviously that attention-seeker Han Yeoreum would try to sign autographs until her wrist gave out, but it was important to cut it off at a reasonable point. Han Taeyang decided to give the privilege to only 30 people on a first-come, first-served basis.
Slide-.
He was late to school due to his conversation with Han Yeoreum. The classroom that had been noisy just moments before suddenly became quiet.
