Episode 47
“She’s here? Can we do something about her…….”
“Ugh, I don’t know! She won’t tell me anything and just plays with the Vocal Line without saying a word!!”
“Good grief, what are you, an elementary schooler? And I’m not even Kang Su-ah.”
“Wait, why am I involved?! Hyun Jae-yi, please listen to your sister……. I told you it wasn’t like that…….”
“This is so frustrating. If you’d asked me to come, I would’ve gone with Su-ah and her family! But you didn’t even tell me!”
When we returned to the dorm after the vacation ended, the first thing we encountered was Hyun Jae-yi in a full sulk, and Go Hyun-seo, who was slowly running out of steam trying to manage her.
I’d anticipated this and come prepared, but she was more upset than I’d expected. Thanks to that, Kang Su-ah had to spend a long time coaxing Hyun Jae-yi even after bribing her with sweet desserts from a shop near Su-ah’s house that she’d brought in advance.
“Your skin got darker?”
“We went to the beach. I applied sunscreen carefully…….”
“Well, you should’ve just come to Ulsan with us instead!”
“It doesn’t matter which place you vacation at. Besides, you’re talking like your skin didn’t tan—yours did too, Jae-yi.”
“Oh, that’s from the beach too……. But I didn’t go for swimming or anything; I just wanted to see the ocean after all this time!”
Seeing her whine like that, she really did seem hurt……. Or maybe she genuinely wanted to go, or something else was bothering her.
From what I remember, there wasn’t any real problem with her family, so that’s probably not it. Actually, I shouldn’t jump to conclusions either. There’s no guarantee she’s fine just because she isn’t showing it.
Well, I’ll figure it out as we go.
“You two.”
“Yes?”
“Yes.”
“Submit your assignments. Send the videos to my email. I’ll compile everything and pass it on to the director.”
“Um……, will it be okay even if it’s not that entertaining?”
“It’s fine. The V-Log’s main focus is her anyway.”
I said, glancing sideways at Kang Su-ah.
Go Hyun-seo doesn’t need to be funny. Su-ah will carry the entertainment.
Fortunately, all three of them—including Ju Hye-rin, who arrived late after flying back from a family trip to Jeju Island—didn’t skip the assignment.
And so, a week later.
【[EVER-LOG] The Ocean Calls to Us…☆ First Vacation V-Log – Beach Trip Edition】
The three of them’s vacation V-Log, filled entirely with beach, was released first.
And then…….
【[EVER-LOG] Can Someone Get a Decibel Meter Here! First Vacation V-Log – Su-ah’s House Edition】
Three days later, the much-anticipated Kang Su-ah’s house V-Log went live.
***
[Su-ah: So, the last evening of vacation! How was it spending time at our place, Ji-on?]
[Ji-on: It was fun. Pretty peaceful, not too hot, and your parents are really kind—different from you.]
[Su-ah: What do you mean different from me! Hmm, well anyway. You had a good time?]
[Ji-on: Yeah, it was nice.]
[Su-ah: I told you it would be! Next—how about you, Byul?]
[Han Byul: It was nice for me too. Especially hearing the sisters’ songs on the spot…….]
[Su-ah: Oh, that was pretty incredible, wasn’t it~? Premium busking, really!]
[Han Byul: And your younger brother said thank you for putting up with your sister being so loud…….]
[Ji-on: Pfft.]
[Su-ah: Oh, wait, hold on. This is slander. That’s not okay. Cut, cut!]
Naturally, it didn’t get cut and aired just fine.
This is funny. Maybe because the original was funny, even as a V-Log it came out entertaining.
[Ji-on: Your mom told me about that too. Apparently when you were little, your voice was so loud that she went around apologizing to the neighbors, but eventually it got to be too much, so you moved to a detached house.]
[Su-ah: No, that’s exaggerated!]
[Ji-on: Oh, some of it’s true? It’s true that you got scolded for singing at all hours of the day?]
[Su-ah: Why does it come out that way!!! …Okay, that part’s true.]
[(Caption) Su-ah, who had a singer’s soul from childhood]
[Su-ah’s Mom: Is that all? When you were in kindergarten, you didn’t place first in the children’s song contest and cried all day, so your brother got upset and told you to stop crying.]
[Su-ah: Ahhh, Mom!!! The fans are watching this—are you really going to tell such a dark history I don’t even remember?!]
[Su-ah’s Mom: I think fans would find it entertaining……. Wouldn’t they?]
[Ji-on: No, they’d definitely find it entertaining. Thank you.]
[Su-ah: Even Mom betrayed me……. What about my image.]
[Ji-on: I don’t think it’ll change much from now.]
Including the dark history of Kang Su-ah that Su-ah’s mom revealed while quietly watching our conversation from the side, we’d done just about everything you could do on a trip to a member’s house.
I skimmed through the reactions on Twitter, and the overall response was positive.
Of course, people generally don’t openly say mean things on public accounts……. But I’ve noticed that if something really was bad, people wouldn’t even mention it in public posts in the first place.
Well……. As long as everyone had a good laugh.
There were occasional comments saying we were making things too comedic, but since Kang Su-ah herself is passionate about comedy, it doesn’t seem worth responding to.
Most importantly…….
【[EVER-LOG] Can Someone Get a Decibel Meter Here!…】
– 12:44 Idol actually exists, belting out a full live performance in the living room without any audio equipment
– after seeing moof eat that, everyone just wants the kids’ living room busking whether it’s Shorts or long-form just upload songs why are they all so good ㄷㄷ
– 12:40 Su-ah dreamy
15:54 Han Byul was I
19:08 Ji-on la vie en rose
straight up the Vocal Line is giving
doityoutu @l1117uck
Seo Ji-on, class of ’37 graduate from Hanbit Foreign Language High School’s French department, singing French chanson is really good
i don’t even need to go to france now my room just became france
(video)
The reaction to the living room busking featured in the V-Log was excellent.
I knew the reaction would be good when I suggested uploading it, but it was better than expected. Yun Ju strongly approved, and right after the V-Log upload, song clips were posted as Shorts with really solid view counts.
The Shorts featuring Kang Su-ah effortlessly performing a ballad that was famous but difficult and usually avoided had the highest views.
That vocal of hers really is a cheat code……. That’s why even before the regression, after the group disbanded, she had no trouble finding her way as a solo artist.
Among the EVERGREET fans, those who had reservations about Su-ah being portrayed only as funny seemed satisfied after seeing the living room busking part in the V-Log.
Some said they liked that Su-ah’s personality was already funny in itself, so it wasn’t forced, and they got to see her professional moments too. I should remember this—I think I understand roughly what Su-ah’s favorite fans like.
Well, I think that’s enough of that…….
I wasn’t able to do the System audit I’d originally planned during vacation because I ended up going to Su-ah’s house.
Now that my schedule has loosened up a bit, I need to try to resolve it.
[System – Inquiry]
[▷ Customer Service – Visible ARS Connection]
I’d been digging through the System’s features every dawn recently to find an inquiry window.
Have these bastards only learned the worst parts of human civilization? I can’t find a counselor connection anywhere, and only a visible ARS exists, which makes it look like problem resolution will be postponed to the end of the universe.
I mean, what kind of thing even has a visible ARS……. Deep thinking just screws me over, but this isn’t a credit card company or telecom customer service.
And when you press this.
[Connection is currently unavailable.]
[Please try again later.]
…….
There’s nothing quite like a system that really knows how to piss people off.
In web novels with idols, there’s the occasional System that chatters away brightly, but this System does nothing but frustrate me. What exactly am I supposed to do…….
[▷ Objective: Success of idol ‘EVERGREET’]
[▷ Current Mission: Win the Rookie Award for Best New Female Group at this year’s VMA!]
When I summon the System, the mission that sparkles at the bottom irritates me. Isn’t it unreasonable in itself to give different agency conditions like this and then demand a Rookie Award?
The mindset of just accepting a penalty if things go wrong is dangerous now too. I learned it firsthand…….
Ugh, I really don’t know anymore. It’s all or nothing.
I slouched back in my studio chair almost sprawling.
“Hey, System.”
I didn’t expect an answer. Still, I stared into empty space and kept talking.
“What if. I’m done and I just quit? What happens?”
There’s no coercion in the Mission itself. It means I could rest if I asked the company to ‘let me take a break.’
So if, as I’d thought before, the System had some reason why I absolutely had to do idol activities…….
“I’ll withdraw. I’m really going to quit. Right now I’ll just cover it with some health excuse and not do activities until the Rookie Award Mission ends.”
Would threats work?
“Won’t you even try to talk to me like this? If I say I’ll do it, I really will. You know?”
I hadn’t originally intended to threaten. If I fell into some ridiculous fantasy situation where my life could be forfeit, threats wouldn’t be the normal response.
But here’s the thing—these bastards won’t even try to communicate, and the inquiry window is just for show. What options do I have?
If you’re frustrated, kill me. If you can.
I can’t keep doing idol activities blind and unable to complete an impossible Rookie Award Mission.
[■■■■■■■■]
[Please wait a moment……]
Fine. Got it.
It’s always watching, always giving Missions. So it seems there’s some reason why I have to be an idol, even if they have to force it.
If I had just a little more patience, I wouldn’t have resorted to threats.
From the start, I was too obedient as a System user. Honestly, in something so surreal, the best way to keep your wits is to just do what you’re told, but I can’t stand it anymore.
[■■ ■■ ■■■■■……]
[■■■■■■ ■■■ ■■ ■……]
[Loading……]
A translucent panel flickers chaotically before my eyes. Unknown language appears and disappears, and illegible broken text obscures my vision.
And drowsiness sets in.
Sleep came in an instant.
***
[Hello, Seo Ji-on.]
[This is a counselor from the IF Project.]
[What brings your inquiry?]
It’s not a voice or mechanical sound—the meaning pierces directly into my head.
Though deeply unpleasant, I feel quite vindicated on a primary level—I’ve pushed the System in the direction I wanted.
I almost laughed. So after just tolerating it dodging the issue this whole time, the moment I really threaten to quit, they scramble to hold on?
“I’m going to quit.”
Of course, it’s a bluff.
[That is impossible.]
[Seo Ji-on is already contracted with the IF Project.]
A bluff to test their reaction.
From their response, I can figure out what I need to dig into.
Contract, contract. I don’t remember making one.
“When did I sign a contract? I don’t remember an oral contract either, and I don’t remember writing one.”
[A project contract exists that was created on 202■, ■■ ■■.]
Wait, what?
I don’t remember that?
I was probably grateful my expression couldn’t be seen.
What the counselor showed me was a contract with my signature clearly inscribed on it.
[…Withdrawal from the project midway is prohibited, and Party B must participate in the project in good faith.]
[…Party A may partially erase and replace memories of Party B deemed unnecessary for the project (potential trauma). The erased and replaced memories may be restored upon meeting certain conditions at a later time…]
All clauses except these two were blurred as if censored.
But that wasn’t the main problem right now. These two clauses were the real issue!
[According to the contract terms, partial erasure of unnecessary memories exists, and there is currently no way to restore them.]
“Just one question. What memories did you erase that the memory of the contract itself got erased?”
That’s definitely my handwriting. It means I did sign of my own volition…….
This is maddening. How can I have made a contract I don’t remember? One of the things I scrutinize most carefully is contracts?!
[I cannot discuss this per the contract terms.]
Damn.
What in the world did the past me do?
[Should the contract be broken, the project will be deemed a failure, and all temporarily granted life force bestowed upon Seo Ji-on will be recovered.]
[The IF Project has no intention of contract termination.]
Information slams into my head, and I thought to myself:
I’m screwed.
Not just screwed—royally, catastrophically screwed.
