Episode 163
* * *
Japan F1 Circuit.
Before the race began, GLEET had arrived at the circuit early for the self-introduction and was listening to explanations from the officials.
“Our circuit is the only one among all F1 circuits worldwide with a unique figure-eight three-dimensional crossing structure….”
Lee Doha nodded along attentively while listening, when he noticed something.
‘…?’
What’s that?
In the distance, men in dark suits were standing in the spectator seats, holding binoculars and looking in his direction.
They didn’t seem like sasaeng fans….
When Lee Doha looked at them with suspicion, they suddenly and quietly lowered their binoculars and began doing something else.
“….”
That’s even more suspicious….
“What. Is something wrong with you?”
Yeonho, noticing Lee Doha’s confusion, asked him.
“No, it’s just…. It feels like someone over there is watching us….”
“They’re probably the bodyguards the company assigned to us.”
“I guess….”
But something still felt off….
Lee Doha remained skeptical but accepted the explanation reasonably.
“…So, how about trying it out yourselves? Of course, you wouldn’t be driving—you’d just experience it slightly from the passenger seat next to our racer.”
“!”
“For our VVIP guests, we have a specially designed two-seater vehicle. It’s just a little taste. The speed is much slower than an actual race car, but it will feel incredibly fast to the average person. It should be quite thrilling. There’s also a practice track right next to it.”
At the F1 official’s suggestion, the members exchanged glances with each other.
‘Who wants to go? Count me out. I’m scared.’
‘…I don’t want to!!! It’s always in F1 movies. The crash scenes!!!! If there’s an accident here, the car flips first and then everything else!!’
‘…If I… die… then who will… protect our Yewon…. Ah…. Yewon has so many people to protect her now….’
‘As long as Lee Doha doesn’t ride, the rest can do whatever.’
In order, it was Eon, Weon, Lee Doha, and Yeonho.
“Well, how about the leader? Would you like to try it as a representative….”
“That’s not happening.”
“!”
When Yeonho answered firmly instead of Lee Doha, the members all turned to look at him simultaneously.
“Hyung, do you really love Lee Doha that much??? Why do you keep discriminating against us??? Why don’t you love me???”
“This isn’t even funny. You should just focus on building muscle instead.”
“…Hyung….”
The reactions came in order from Weon, Eon, and Lee Doha.
Yeonho wiped his face with his hand.
When I get back to Korea, I’m definitely getting ten hours of therapy with Yewon no matter what.
“Or how about all of you ride together? We have about six two-seater vehicles available, so each of you can board one.”
At the staff member’s interjection, Yeonho’s expression grew even darker.
“Ah, yes, it would be nice to experience an actual race like real racing. I think GLEET members will be able to directly experience the thrilling excitement of Formula 1. This is truly a rare opportunity. The driving course is a practice track, so it’s not that long.”
“….”
Isn’t it only a good opportunity if we’re happy about it?
“Please don’t worry too much—we won’t drive as fast as a real race. We’ll maintain a reasonable speed.”
The members were thinking “This is scary!” but they couldn’t bring themselves to say “We don’t want to…” in front of the camera.
So the only choice left was….
“Y-yes…. It’ll be so much fun riding together…! Let’s all go….”
For the sake of the Fans, there was no choice but to ride together….
‘Definitely… if we’re trembling inside an F1 car… it would be entertaining….’
‘The Fans always want to see us shaking in fear in haunted houses. Today they’ll see real terror.’
‘Who suggested bringing F1 anyway.’
‘If I… die… what about Yewon….’
In order: Weon, Eon, Yeonho, and Lee Doha.
The members sighed simultaneously and contemplated.
Do Glow know?
That we love Glow so much we’d stake our very lives for it….
* * *
Just as the members were heading toward the specially-built two-seater Formula car, prepared to face death.
“…CEO, is it really okay to leave them like that over there…?”
“….”
Yusong watched GLEET walking into danger of their own volition and sighed inwardly.
“I’ll ride too. Contact them over there.”
“!”
At Yusong’s words, his subordinates exchanged glances simultaneously.
“W-well, we might have spare vehicles, but I don’t think we have a driver who can take the CEO….”
“I’ll drive it myself.”
“….”
At Yusong’s words, his subordinates were filled with concern.
Our CEO is really going to the other side today!
Then.
“That seems too dangerous….”
Yewon, who had been hiding behind the staff members, grabbed the hem of Yusong’s coat and shook her head.
“…!”
My daughter is worrying about me…!
Yusong floundered in profound emotion.
“Don’t worry, sweetheart. Your dad used to drive these all the time when he was young.”
“!”
“There’s a nice circuit in Las Vegas, so I used to go often…. With your mother.”
At the word “mother,” Yewon’s eyes widened.
It was the first time Yewon had heard her mother’s story from her father.
“Really?”
“Yeah. She’d always threaten to burn me if I didn’t let her ride with me… it was quite the predicament.”
“….”
Mother…?
Yewon found herself momentarily speechless upon learning this new side of her mother.
My mother was quite the firebrand back then…!
* * *
“!!!!!”
Meanwhile, in the White Room.
Seoha, who had been watching the father and daughter through the TV, dropped her jaw.
“Hyeon Yuseong!!!!”
What are you revealing to the child right now!!!
* * *
Elsewhere.
Daihyo, too, was looking down at Lee Doha from the opposite side of the circuit.
“….”
Last night, all the subordinates he had sent to drag that bastard down to ruin had gone silent.
It made no sense.
There was no way a mere idol could be receiving military-grade security….
How was this possible?
Daihyo couldn’t comprehend the situation.
A far greater force than he had anticipated must have attached itself to that man.
‘…Could it be a rival company?’
Suspicion began to seep into his mind.
He had heard rumors of new distribution companies emerging within Korea.
Could it be that a new competitor was backing Lee Doha?
‘…If so, I’ll have to show them. Who the true master of this world is.’
A racing circuit.
A place where any accident could occur without raising suspicion.
A fitting stage indeed.
Daihyo smiled coldly and picked up his phone, dialing someone.
* * *
Thus.
Four members of GLEET, Hyeon Yuseong, and one racer under Daihyo’s covert orders took their positions on the circuit.
And Yewon, watching the six vehicles, clasped her hands together and began to pray.
Please let nothing happen to my uncles!
…And to my father too!
“Ah, are you quite worried, young lady?”
One of Yusong’s subordinates, finding Yewon’s concern endearing, asked her gently.
“Y-yes…! I heard it’s dangerous….”
“Please don’t worry. Our CEO is the type who accomplishes whatever he sets his mind to. He could easily defeat a demon. He’s actually fought creatures similar to demons and won quite effortlessly!”
“….”
I’m learning so much about my parents today….
What in the world would a pharmaceutical company CEO be fighting ‘demon-like creatures’ for…!
At Yewon’s suspicious gaze, the subordinate chuckled heartily.
“Your mother is truly beautiful, just like our young lady. Our CEO has single-handedly subdued countless fools who tried to pursue her.”
“….”
That’s… information I really didn’t want to know….
For the first time, Yewon hoped her illusions about her parents would finally shatter.
“Ah, it looks like they’re about to start. They’re warming up the tires.”
“Warming them up?”
“Yes. See those cars doing a lap over there? They’re circling to bring the tire and brake temperatures to optimal levels. Once the warm-up is complete, the signal lights should turn on.”
“…!”
“They’ve finished their laps. Look, they’re lining up one by one. Would you like to see the signal lights turn on through the telescope, Miss?”
“Yes!”
Yewon took the telescope the subordinate offered and watched Lee Doha’s vehicle intently.
Lee Doha, sitting inside with his helmet on, wasn’t showing much expression, but… I could feel he was incredibly tense.
‘I’ve never seen Uncle so rigid before…!’
Then the signal lights turned on, and the race officially began.
The cars shot down the circuit at an unbelievable speed.
“…!”
How could they possibly avoid accidents at such a speed…!
They said it was a specially modified vehicle and would be slow, but it wasn’t slow at all.
Since this was the first time I’d seen cars moving this fast right before my eyes, Yewon gripped her hands together even more tightly.
But then.
A car at the very back began dangerously closing in on Lee Doha’s vehicle.
“!”
Uncle!
Yewon barely stifled a scream.
