Assistant Manager Kim Hates Idols Chapter 277 - Epilogue. Bubble Pop 1-Day Free Trial

≫ Jeho

I wke up

 

≫ Jeho

I wok up

 

≫ Jeho

Ah this isn’t working

 

≫ Jeho

Gotta wear my glasses

 

≫ Jeho

I put them on

 

≫ Jeho

I was trying to say that I woke up

 

≫ Jeho

But I wasn’t wearing my glasses

 

≫ Jeho

You’re telling me to get lasik?

 

≫ Jeho

Is it convenient?

 

≫ Jeho

There could be side effects?

 

≫ Jeho

I’ll ask Kim Iwol later

 

≫ Jeho

Wouldn’t he know?

 

≫ Jeho

Not that he got lasik

 

≫ Jeho

He just knows a lot of random stuff

 

≫ Jeho

I sometimes hear him talking with Lee Cheonghyeon and there are times I can’t understand a single thing they’re saying

 

≫ Jeho

You’re asking if I feel left out?

 

≫ Jeho

As long as they’re having fun, it’s fine

 

≫ Jeho

You’re asking if I’m not tired since I went to bed late yesterday?

 

≫ Jeho

I didn’t go to bed that late. I ate cake, worked out, and went right to sleep

 

≫ Jeho

Judging by how Lee Cheonghyeon’s still asleep, I guess he might be tired

 

≫ Jeho

Seeing as Kim Iwol isn’t in his spot

 

≫ Jeho

I think he went to make food

 

≫ Jeho

None of us set an alarm today

 

≫ Jeho

Because no one is going to school

 

≫ Jeho

Since the Music Festival ran late, we decided to sleep in a bit and then go to practice

 

≫ Jeho

Lately we’ve been sleeping like only three hours a day? something like that

 

≫ Jeho

You’re asking why Kim Iwol woke up so early?

 

≫ Jeho

He just wakes up when it’s time, even without an alarm

 

≫ Jeho

A habit, maybe

 

≫ Jeho

I guess I’m similar, but anyway

 

≫ Jeho

Oh right, I

 

≫ Jeho

have something to ask

 

≫ Jeho

Who was the one who said ‘Choi Jeho, cover up’?

 

≫ Jeho

I feel like you’re here

 

≫ Jeho

Choi Jeho, cover up

 

≫ Jeho

Were you satisfied with the covered-up look?

 

≫ Jeho

Is it better to cover up?

 

≫ Jeho

No?

 

≫ Jeho

Then why did you tell me to cover up yesterday?

 

≫ Jeho

Ah

 

≫ Jeho

Because it was cold?

 

≫ Jeho

Because it was too revealing?

 

≫ Jeho

You’re telling me not to do that in front of other people?

 

≫ Jeho

Wait, whose opinion am I supposed to go with?

 

≫ Jeho

You’re telling me to do as I please?

 

≫ Jeho

Then I’ll just do as Sparklers say

 

≫ Jeho

The people I see the most are Sparklers

 

≫ Jeho

Isn’t it right to do whatever Sparklers like?

 

≫ Jeho

Kim Iwol just told me to come help set the table

 

≫ Jeho

I’ll be back after I eat

 

≫ Jeho

Make sure you eat breakfast

 

* * *

 

≫ Iwol

I just came back from eating breakfast! Did you have breakfast? We ate with the side dishes Seongbin’s mother made for us

 

≫ Iwol

Thank you for cheering for us to win the rookie award and congratulating us on winning.

I said it yesterday, but I wanted to say it again. I’ll work harder next year!

 

≫ Iwol

We’re enjoying it and taking it easy… Thank you. All the members and I are enjoying ourselves, so don’t worry!

 

≫ Iwol

There were a lot of posts asking what kinds of things Cheonghyeon and I usually talk about. Jeho said he talked about it on Bubble Pop haha

 

≫ Iwol

I talk about songs with Cheonghyeon the most. Or sometimes when he reads something that really moves him, he shares it with me—sometimes I get it right away, and sometimes I don’t. He reads books that could come out of nonfiction…

 

≫ Iwol

He once told me that back in the day when he and Kiyeon went to manga cafés, Kiyeon would read comics and Cheonghyeon would read novels

 

≫ Iwol

The book I read most recently…

 

≫ Iwol

Kingdom Cafeteria Another

 

≫ Iwol

It’s not that it took me a long time to reply because I was embarrassed, I just went to search again to see if the title was correct!

 

≫ Iwol

I haven’t been able to read the next volume because I’ve been preparing for the comeback and year-end stages. Kiyeon said it gets fun from volume 5, is that true? It’s already fun enough now

 

≫ Iwol

Were you surprised that the conversation suddenly cut off? I’m sorry

 

≫ Iwol

I heard the sound of a dish breaking, so I went to the kitchen, but nothing had happened. It was just the sound of Jeho doing the dishes. I don’t know how on earth he does the dishes…

 

≫ Iwol

I’m not just being harsh on Jeho, I swear! How should I even explain this?

 

≫ Iwol

Voice Message 01:00

 

≫ Iwol

I request your objective judgment

 

≫ Iwol

Thank you. I knew it, I wasn’t in the wrong

 

≫ Iwol

You’re curious about what the kids said behind me?

Cheonghyeon: If it makes that much noise, the dish should normally break, right?

Kiyeon: Did it not break? Look carefully. It might be cracked.

Cheonghyeon: No, it’s fine.

Seongbin: Guys, if you think a dish broke, you should ask if hyung’s hand is okay first.

That was what they were saying!

 

≫ Iwol

Is it too burdensome that I even type out the commas…?

 

≫ Iwol

If not, that’s a relief!

 

≫ Iwol

I think I have to go now because of practice. I’ll contact you again in the evening. Thank you for talking with me from early in the morning

 

≫ Iwol

I hope you have a good day. It’s very cold, so please dress warmly

 

* * *

 

≫ Joowoo

Hello~

 

≫ Joowoo

I’m a bit late today, right?

 

≫ Joowoo

I’m sorry

 

≫ Joowoo

It’s because I left early for practice

 

≫ Joowoo

You’re asking why I left early?

 

≫ Joowoo

It’s a secret 🙂

 

≫ Joowoo

I’m sending this message because it’s break time now

 

≫ Joowoo

It’s a vocal practice only day, so no dancing

 

≫ Joowoo

So I’m still fine hahaha

 

≫ Joowoo

It’s strange… I never skip a workout and work hard, but I’m always the first to get tired every day

 

≫ Joowoo

Am I not exercising enough?

 

≫ Joowoo

You’re saying Spark’s average level is just high?

 

≫ Joowoo

That’s right, the members’ stamina is really good

 

≫ Joowoo

Jeho hyung and Iwol hyung once went to play basketball for two hours at night because they felt stiff

 

≫ Joowoo

I could never do that

 

≫ Joowoo

If I tried, I would just pass out

 

≫ Joowoo

You’re asking who has the most muscle?

 

≫ Joowoo

Jeho hyung has the highest skeletal muscle mass, and Kiyeon has the lowest body fat percentage

 

≫ Joowoo

As for Cheonghyeon

 

≫ Joowoo

He got caught by Iwol hyung eating a late-night snack a while ago

 

≫ Joowoo

But he said hyung let him off

 

≫ Joowoo

He said it was fine because he was repaying with results

 

≫ Joowoo

What results, you ask?

 

≫ Joowoo

His height haha

 

≫ Joowoo

I wish I could grow a little taller too

 

≫ Joowoo

You’re saying I’m good enough as I am?

 

≫ Joowoo

Um… but still, if I can grow, I want to grow more

 

≫ Joowoo

Because all the hyungs are tall

 

≫ Joowoo

The younger ones look so tiny

 

≫ Joowoo

And we are actually tiny…

 

≫ Joowoo

You’re asking how tall I want to be?

 

≫ Joowoo

185!

 

≫ Joowoo

Then I’d be right in the middle of Jeho hyung and Iwol hyung, right?

 

≫ Joowoo

But I don’t think it’ll happen…

 

≫ Joowoo

For now, I’ll try to work out harder

 

≫ Joowoo

And sleep a lot too!

 

≫ Joowoo

Break time’s over~ See you again later~

 

* * *

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

What are you having for lunch?

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

I’m having cubed steak rice bowl!

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

The reason I was on a diet until yesterday was because of the Music Festival… hehe

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

I worked hard on my appearance to look cool, and I was so proud that you all liked it so much

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

As a celebration, we all ate what we wanted today!

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Yesterday, our underage members only stayed for the first part of the Music Festival, you know

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

When I got back to the dorm and watched the live broadcast, the hyungs’ hair was seriously sticking straight up

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

I burst out laughingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

There won’t be a need for telephone poles near UA. You can just have the hyungs stand there

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

That’s right, I said a while ago that there was something I wanted to say but forgot

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

I remembered what it was

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

I thought my display name, Cutie Pretty Visual, was just a set nickname

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

But apparently it was originally ‘Visual + Jewelry + Lee Cheonghyeon’ all combined into ‘Cutie Pretty Visual Lee Cheonghyeon’

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

It’s really useless but detailed, right?

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

What on earth was hyung thinking when he came up with that nickname?

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Come to think of it, only hyung doesn’t have a nickname

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Let’s make one for him

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

1. The Trendy Confucian Scholar of Cheonghak-dong
2. Walking Human Ice Maker
3. Honorary North Pole Caretaker

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

You don’t like any of them?

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

This is a big problem. I, Lee Cheonghyeon, for the first time in my life, have found something I can’t do

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

At this point, we have no choice but to combine your 50 and my 50 brainpower for a total of 100 to come up with a nickname

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

No, wait, I’ll think of it on my own

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

I’m a little jealous that you’re so passionately making a nickname for hyung

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Whenever you talk to me, all you ever say is that I lost to Iwol hyung’s ridiculous flattery and then repeat whatever he said

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Make a new one for me too

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

See, you’re saying Cutie Pretty Visual is a perfect fit again

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange?

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Alright, I’ll go change it to that!

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

I changed it

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Has a fancy ring to it, doesn’t it?

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Today’s market price is… free!

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Come collect your gold in person~

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Who was it?

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Who told Iwol hyung I changed my Bubble Pop nickname?

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Hyung is asking if the nickname was that bad

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

What should I say? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

You want me to change it back quickly?

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Then when do I get to use this nicknameㅠㅠ

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Alright, but in return, when you post my picture, you have to tag it with #Sparklers_Exclusive_Gold_Exchange

 

≫ Sparkler’s Exclusive Gold Exchange

Promise!

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

The exchange is now closed, customer

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Please try again next time

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

I’ll secure a special deal soon

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

I’m done with lunch too… right on time

 

≫ Cutie Pretty Visual

Be careful on the icy roads! I think I’ll be working late today, so go to bed first! Thanks for eating with me♥

≫ Kiyeon

(Photo)

 

≫ Kiyeon

This is my practice outfit for today

 

≫ Kiyeon

The pants are pretty, right?

 

≫ Kiyeon

Since it’s a day without dance practice, I wore something with a nice fit for a change

 

≫ Kiyeon

Today’s practice teacher was Seongbin hyung.

 

≫ Kiyeon

You’re asking how Teacher Seongbin’s class is?

 

≫ Kiyeon

The teacher is kind and the lecture is easy. Five stars

 

≫ Kiyeon

As for Joowoo hyung’s class…

 

≫ Kiyeon

The teacher is kind but I can’t understand about half the lecture

 

≫ Kiyeon

Three stars

 

≫ Kiyeon

Please keep it a secret from Joowoo hyung…!

 

≫ Kiyeon

Joowoo hyung’s way of speaking is a bit similar to Jeho hyung’s

 

≫ Kiyeon

He has a tendency to rely on feeling when explaining something

 

≫ Kiyeon

I mean, it’s not the explainer’s fault

 

≫ Kiyeon

It’s my fault for not understanding……

 

≫ Kiyeon

You know I’m joking, right?

 

≫ Kiyeon

Iwol hyung and Lee Cheonghyeon have a different vibe

 

≫ Kiyeon

They explain things well, but they’re spartan

 

≫ Kiyeon

‘You can’t do this? How can that be?’ Or, ‘You can’t do this? It’s over, it’s all wrong’

 

≫ Kiyeon

It’s extreme

 

≫ Kiyeon

In the early days of our trainee period, I thought we were all ordinary, but I don’t think so anymore

 

≫ Kiyeon

Everyone’s got so much personality

 

≫ Kiyeon

Isn’t Seongbin hyung also unique when you look closely?

 

≫ Kiyeon

I should probably stop here

 

≫ Kiyeon

A while ago, Lee Cheonghyeon got caught right after changing his Bubble Pop nickname

 

≫ Kiyeon

I don’t know when I’ll get caught either, so I’ll stop

 

≫ Kiyeon

You’ll keep it a secret?

 

≫ Kiyeon

Really?

 

≫ Kiyeon

No betraying, okay?

 

≫ Kiyeon

Still, I think our member lineup is really good

 

≫ Kiyeon

The part distribution is clear

 

≫ Kiyeon

Seongbin hyung and Joowoo hyung handle the vocals

 

≫ Kiyeon

Jeho hyung and I are in charge of the choreography

 

≫ Kiyeon

And when we’re recording, Iwol hyung and Lee Cheonghyeon lead the process

 

≫ Kiyeon

Just by how they usually talk, you’d think Iwol hyung is the intuitive one and Lee Cheonghyeon pursues precision, right?

 

≫ Kiyeon

But in reality, it’s the complete opposite.

 

≫ Kiyeon

If Lee Cheonghyeon is the type to say, ‘Kiyeon, try to get over the high notes more smoothly~’

 

≫ Kiyeon

Iwol hyung is like, ‘Kiyeon, the note is dropping. Let’s raise the pitch by a half step at the end’

 

≫ Kiyeon

Both Iwol hyung and Lee Cheonghyeon have perfect pitch, so they’re extremely sensitive to pitch, you see?

 

≫ Kiyeon

So when we record, we set the bar high enough that we barely need any correction

 

≫ Kiyeon

Joowoo hyung has never once been called out by Iwol hyung for his pitch

 

≫ Kiyeon

Even Iwol hyung records multiple takes of his own parts

 

≫ Kiyeon

So I find Joowoo hyung amazing

 

≫ Kiyeon

Next time I take Teacher Joowoo’s class, I’ll try to learn diligently

 

≫ Kiyeon

It’s already gotten very dark outside. Get home safely!

 

* * *

 

≫ Seongbin

What were you doing? It’s very late.

 

≫ Seongbin

I didn’t interrupt anything, did I?

 

≫ Seongbin

That’s a relief haha I just got back to the dorm

 

≫ Seongbin

I’m not tired! I’m completely full of energy.

 

≫ Seongbin

Right now I’m waiting for my turn to shower

 

≫ Seongbin

Today’s shower order is Joowoo > Me > Iwol hyung > Cheonghyeon > Kiyeon > Jeho hyung!

 

≫ Seongbin

Joowoo and I have to go to the company early tomorrow, so the members were considerate.

 

≫ Seongbin

Iwol hyung and Cheonghyeon also have work to do tonight, so

 

≫ Seongbin

Jeho hyung and Kiyeon yielded their turns

 

≫ Seongbin

We don’t really set an order, but rather adjust to the situation at the time

 

≫ Seongbin

The order we get our makeup done is also different every time haha

 

≫ Seongbin

Yesterday, Joowoo showered first, then Cheonghyeon, Kiyeon, and then me!

 

≫ Seongbin

Cheonghyeon wore really heavy makeup yesterday, haha. It took forever to remove ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

 

≫ Seongbin

Thinking about how next year Cheonghyeon and Kiyeon will leave alone at the Music Festival makes me feel a little complicated

 

≫ Seongbin

Although it’s nice to be able to stay until the ending with the hyungs

 

≫ Seongbin

You’re asking what I want to do first when I become an adult?

 

≫ Seongbin

Um…

 

≫ Seongbin

I can’t think of what I want to do first right away, but we all went to see the sunrise together at the beginning of this year

 

≫ Seongbin

When I become an adult, I want to go see the sunrise again and make a wish

 

≫ Seongbin

The wish I made then has already come true, so I want to make a new wish to celebrate becoming an adult

 

≫ Seongbin

What the wish was is a secret hehe

 

≫ Seongbin

You’re sad that there’s a secret between us?

 

≫ Seongbin

Fair enough

 

≫ Seongbin

I wished that our members would all get along and have a good year together

 

≫ Seongbin

We really did spend the year cherishing each other

 

≫ Seongbin

Next time we go, I want to wish that we can continue to live happily

 

≫ Seongbin

Although we won’t be able to go on January 1st like this year…!

 

≫ Seongbin

You have to dress warmly when you go to see the sunrise

 

≫ Seongbin

We almost froze too if it weren’t for Iwol hyung

 

≫ Seongbin

Oh, Joowoo is out

 

≫ Seongbin

I’m going to go shower now!

 

≫ Seongbin

If I go in late, the other members have to wait…!

 

≫ Seongbin

It’ll probably be time to sleep when I come out of the shower.

 

≫ Seongbin

I’ll contact you again tomorrow morning

 

≫ Seongbin

Good night. Sweet dreams
