The Journey of Love by an Idol

Episode 101's

“Eonni, I think I've been a little weird lately.”, Daeun said in the van she was driving with Yura, Manager Jang Hyun Joo.

The two were heading to the location of a drama and film awards show hosted by one of the National TV stations. According to the plan, the two set out in advance in different cars to prepare whatever needs to be ascertained at the location.

Meanwhile, Daehyun and Jang Hyun Joo are in a van that will depart 30 minutes after they are with stylists and make-up artists. Both will ensure that these two celebrities can perform fully in the Red Carpet.

Daeun and Yura who were not close before this drama, now began to chat often even things - things that are TMI (Too Much Information) though.

“You why?”, asked Yura while continuing to stare at her phone. He is replying to the chat - chat media and reporters who want to interview Jang Hyun Joo during this award show.

“Ohiya, why are you so relaxed? Did Kang Daehyun not accept interview requests and such? I just had to wait a lot of media requests that came in.”, continued Yura.

Daeun had not yet answered Yura, the woman had already showered her with another obvious question - clearly unrelated.

“Daehyun did not receive any interviews at the awards except with his band. The agency had already rejected him before, so no media had contacted me anymore.”, Daeun replied in a lethargic tone.

“Huh, basic Kang Daehyun. Yes, indeed he was not born from the actor line.”, Yura commented.

“Daehyun-oppa, she does not want the enthusiasm of this drama to focus too much on her. In a few months, Triple Kill will release a new album. He did not want to accept the drama offer again after this.”, Daeun replied explaining.

“Cih, very confident he.”, said Yura.

This woman does have a blunt nature. That trait grew over time to become the manager of a Jang Hyun Joo who had just pursued a career and immediately soared.

If he did not behave like that, it would be difficult for him to survive in this entertainment world.

“He is not confident, but two to three scripts of movies and dramas have already entered the agency office, eonni. He wants to focus on his band.”, Daeun replies back.

“Ah. as it turns. I guess he's confident for no reason. So, why are you? What is it with you?”, asked Yura just back to the initial conversation.

“Huft... I don't want to tell it.”, Daeun said growing lethargic.

“Eh? Didn't you want to tell me? Why change your mind now?”, asked Yura.

“You broke my mood to tell it.”, Daeun replied annoyed but she tried not to sound like that.

However, Yura was a senior. He should show respect to her.

“OK, I'll put down my phone now. You can tell a story. Provided you grant my request. Just one.”, said Yura put her phone beside her and focused her attention on Daeun.

“What request?”, asked Daeun confused.

“Later on, now I'll listen to you first. So, what's wrong with you? Why act weird?”, asked Yura,

“Ah. no.. It seems you misunderstood. I mean, friends. Yes, friend. I would like to ask your opinion on the state of my friend.”, Daeun explained.

Out of doubt, Daeun chooses to scapegoat his friend. In fact, he had no friends except those in the orphanage. They were a long time away from Daeun. After all, Yura would not know either. So, no problem.

“My friend has a boss. He works very close.”, Daeun says start telling stories.

“A-ah.. some kind of secretary? Your friend works in an office?”, asked Yura enthusiastically.

“Hm.. You could say so. One day, his boss had a girlfriend. Somehow, my friend felt strange.”, explained Daeun.

“Your friend likes her boss?”, asked Yura to draw a conclusion as soon as she heard Daeun's last sentence.

“Oh? Is that called liking?”, asked Daeun surprised.

“Why are you so surprised. This is your friend, right? I think he really likes it. You said he's been feeling weird lately, right? That means he likes her. Otherwise how could he possibly feel strange when his superior has a lover. He must be jealous. What is his boss?”, asked Yura suddenly enthusiastically.

“Hm.. could be too. But, it should not last long.”

“I mean?”, asked Daeun confused.

“Like you and Daehyun.”, said Yura arrived - immediately made Daeun panic.

“Eh? No. .. eonni.. No, it's not me and Daehyun. Haha.no.. No...”, Daeun immediately panicked.

“What's really why? Previously, Daehyun's manager was Seongmin-oppa. Then, suddenly the manager is you. Daehyun also must have felt a sense of loss on the figure of Seongmin oppa who used to accompany him. But, it won't be long. The proof, the relationship with you is good - fine.”, explained Yura.

‘Oh? What did this woman say? Is it the same? I almost lost my heart because I thought he thought it was my story. It turned out that he instead took the other side which was obvious - obviously nothing to do.’, Daeun thought inwardly as she stroked his chest.

“Ah.. 5 more minutes we arrive. Oiya, I've been listening to your story. Now you have to grant my request.”, Yura said directly to Daeun again.

“Eh?”, Daeun's expression was confused.

‘He didn't even listen to my story seriously.’, Daeun protested inwardly.

“I get an interview request from a large media. *********.. You definitely know.”\, Yura said.

“Oh? Wah...it is a very famous media.”, Daeun replied in amazement.

“But, he doesn't want just Hyun Joo alone, he wants to interview Daehyun too. Can, right?”, asked Yura.

“But Eonni. I told you that Daehyun-oppa is not willing to.”, Daeun tried to explain back.

“Shuuuttt. Now, your job is to persuade Daehyun to want.”, said Yura directly opened the door of her car as soon as she got to the parking lot and got out.

“Eh.. Eonnian.. Yura Eonni's.. But. Ah. shhh.. The woman is like a snake. Can squirm quickly looking for an opportunity. How'this? I can finish off Daehyun like this.”, Daeun panicked.

Flashback a few days ago at the agency office. 

“Pilsung Daepyonim whom I respect. I'm not willing to accept any more movies or dramas after this. I accepted this one because you forced me to. I want to focus on the band. You know we're going to put out the latest mini album.”, Daehyun said in his room. 

“I also didn't expect you to have acting talent. Your profile is huge. You can benefit even more than when you were in the band.”, Pilsung said. 

“Heh.. isn't the band getting much more profit from live performances and festivals.”, Daehyun said breaking his CEO's statement. 

“Yes.you are right, but acting will bring your name even more famous. For Triple Kill. Imagine, if you were famous, the name Triple Kill would also be more famous. You can appear on various music shows such as Idol.”, Pilsung continued trying to explain. 

“Abviously we didn't perform on the music show because we weren't invited? Didn't we say we don't want to appear there too often.”, Daehyun said again - again breaking Pilsung's statement. 

“OK. You can run both. Movies and band activities. Hows it? Okay after this drama won't be accepting new dramas for a while. But, at least accept the movie offer? How?”, said Pilsung trying to seduce Daehyun again. 

“T-I-D-A-K BSC. And there will be no interviews for the awards later. I hope full support from you, daepyonim.”, Daehyun said firmly. 

Outside, Daeun overhears the conversation when asked to bring documents from Bokman Ahjussi.

Daehyun, the man refused if only himself shone inside the band. They built the Triple Kill band right from zero. They are always on Daehyun's side when it comes to the difficult times of his family's decision to move permanently abroad.

A band called Triple Kill became their savior during High School. Each member must fight against their own problems - each with a person who is considered an adult in their family.

Therefore, Daehyun did not want activities outside of Triple Kill to just push him away from Triple Kill.

From the beginning, he had disagreed with the idea of the agency to give them solo activities so that their name could be better known to the crowd. Ji Woo and Hyun Woo through Reality Show. Ji Won on radio and Jisu on some music shows. Then, Daehyun in the acting world.

Thanks to this, they find it difficult to complete their mini album.
