The Trashy PD Has To Survive as an Idol

Chapter 131

Chapter 131

As Seo Hoyun berated Min Jiheon during the rehearsal for the congratulatory performance, while simultaneously pushing himself to the limit for other year-end stages, December 25th sneaked up on them.

Christmas!

Ironically, the days when it actually snowed on Christmas were so rare they were almost forgotten, yet the streets were filled with carols singing about white snow falling.

[Ah, Im not really looking forward to Christmas

Please dont talk about putting up Christmas decorations in your profile pic if youre like this

Got caught]

[Why do Christmas carols make me feel so excited?]

[Christmas special Been listening to carols non-stop since early November, but then nothing happens on the actual day]

[Its okay as long as I feel the tickles of excitement till then ]

And that day was a bit more special for Black Calls fandom.

Because WH, Black Calls agency, released a Christmas special album by the group.

White Christmas, you smiling happily in front of me, the carol echoing far away,

I want to remember all of this for a lifetime.

Black Call was primarily known for dance pop and intense choreography, but they showcased their talent with a variety of harmonies in this special Christmas album.

Consequently, the response was very positive.

After all, how could it not be good when Black Call released a Christmas album?

[Legend, absolutely legend..]

[Hadnt even thought they would release something suddenly Top-tier, these guys really did it again, make a fortune guys!!]

[For Black Call, failure is not an option.]

True to Christmas, the album included photos of all Black Call members in front of a Christmas tree, holding various props.

[Is the price of Joo Woosungs photo card skyrocketing?]

Among them, Joo Woosungs photo card, where he was wearing a red knit and lifting a sparkling Christmas light with a cheeky smile, was legendary.

Its value soared through the roof.

[Save me]

[This photo card does exist, right? Its not a mirage? But why dont I have it?]

[Ah, Id be grateful if he dyed his hair forever, but black hair is legendary. But seriously, dyed hair for life]

Joo Woosung, when he set his mind to it, was a runaway train in popularity.

The agency seemed ready to rake in a hefty profit, considering the inclusion of unit cards in the album package.

Each one showing two members and appearing as if they were taken with a real Polaroid camera.

[Ah, Im breaking my savings for this]

[Even if I wanted to solve this with money, theres no stockIs this real???]

During this busy time for Joo Woosung, what was Seo Hoyun doing, you ask?

Having finished practice, he went to the company office to do a V-Live with the members.

Now he was just slumped in a chair while looking at the text messages from Joo Woosung.

That Bastard: Do you like it

That Bastard: Christmas gift~

This guy

Considering that The Dawn couldnt even come close to Black Call yet, his personal outreach clearly seemed intended to irritate me.

Me: Just enlist already

That Bastard:

That Bastard: Not happening any time soon~

This bastard has definitely forgotten.

Forgotten what?

Being blackmailed

I resolved to mock Joo Woosung grandly when he enlists, but Kang Ichae, who was fiddling around beside me, tilted his head in confusion.

But why has Black Call been so active lately?

Not my circus.

With a feeling of emptiness, I laid down on the desk, only rolling my eyes to watch the music show that the other members were focused on.

The layers of harmony piled up, lyrics fitting the season with just the right amount of wistfulness, a stage decorated splendidly, fashionable styling, and insane skills encompassing it all.

They flaunted their big agency background and devoured the surprise special album.

Im so jealous, damn it.

But this time, I couldnt bring myself to say anything to Daepaseong Entertainment.

After spending the last year churning out competition songs, releasing three titles, running around on variety shows, dramas, and end-of-year stages like mad, it felt too hardcore to nag about not thinking of releasing a Christmas album now.

Honestly, had there been just a bit more time, I wouldve certainly persuaded the CEO to allocate the funds.

Lets do it next year, next year.

Hyung?! Why?

Only then, Jeong Dajun, who had been munching on a now-cold hotdog bought from a convenience store, asked.

His face was finally showing some life after the CSAT exam.

I couldnt bring myself to call Black Call sons of bitches in front of him and Kim Seonghyeon, so I decided to change the subject.

Is it good?

Yeah!

Well, at least you seemed happy about it

Ah! We havent decorated the Christmas tree yet!!

Jeong Dajun, perfectly matching the white knit he wore, suddenly stood up and went to the Christmas tree.

While Kim Seonghyeon and Kang Ichae got busy decorating the tree, Seong Jiwon sat down at the electronic piano, and I turned on the camera.

[????]

Hello.

[?????????]

[Whats going on]

[What are you guys doing]

The Noeuls, appearing puzzled in their comments, soon swarmed in, and they all started shedding tears like a storm.

[A Christmas live?!!?]

[Is the band back???? Ah, its really just Jiwon playing the piano but still]

As I was about to turn off the camera, more messages kept coming in.

[Merry Christmas!]

[Have a great Christmas ** * Happy Xmas]

[You have to spend it happily!!]

Is that a Christmas tree?

I grinned at the sight of all these sweet words piling up like snow.

Spend it happily.

.

.

.

All I want for Christmas~~.

Is~ Youuu~.

Even a good while after the V-Live had ended, Kang Ichae had no intention of stopping the carol singing.

Instead, Jeong Dajun and he were having a blast imitating the classic Christmas movie, Love Actually.

The youngest will play the drums!!

The rapper will pick you based on matching the song lyrics!

Kya, exciting!!

There seemed to be no intention of ending with just the first verse, as they even asked who would play the role of the British Prime Minister Hugh Grant who gets caught kissing behind the curtains.

I was busy decorating the cake with strawberries and diligently popping them into my mouth with a fork. Of course, I pretended not to hear anything.

Oops!!

Just then, Jeong Dajun, who had been pretending to play the drums behind me, suddenly jumped up.

Emergency! Its snowing outside!!

What?! Really?!

Is it a white Christmas?

What would change when it snows?

As a former office worker who thought snow only looked pretty when it was falling and soon turned into white trash, thus making driving difficult, I nonchalantly licked the ganache off the fork.

But not only the maknae, even Seong Jiwon and Kim Seonghyeon got up, hastily grabbing their tops and scarves.

Where are you guys going?

Ahaha, outside?

Me too.

Was snow that great?

Among them, Jeong Dajun was the first to rush out.

The last one to arrive buys ice cream!

Ice cream in winter, deal!

Jeong Dajun, hey! Wear your scarf!

Yess!!

Dont just say yes and go!!

Kim Seonghyeon called out, but Jeong Dajun ran off anyway.

It was going to be just cold, so would they finally come to their senses after freezing their butts off

was something I thought with a typical grumpy old mans mindset, but then decided to change my attitude.

Alright, lets think like an idol for once.

I stood up, looking at Kang Ichae and Seong Jiwon hurrying out after Jeong Dajun, but hesitated because of the cold.

Kim Seonghyeon nudged my shoulder.

Lets go.

Sigh.

We should have a snowball fight.

Were not 3, were 23.

And I was 33.

Anyway.

Even Kim Seonghyeon, feeling a bit awkward, turned his gaze away but still eagerly grabbed his scarf and followed out.

He seemed pretty excited too

To take a photo for our fancaf, and also to hear Seong Jiwons story.

Eventually, I headed out with my hands in my coat pockets, and my breath turned white in the chilly night air.

Hyung, snowball fight, go go!

Scrape together whatever you can!

Eek, my hands are so cold!!

Did I ever get excited about snow in my early twenties?

No, I think I was cursing it as I cleared some snow in the military.

Honestly, I could hardly remember.

There was hardly any snow accumulated on the ground, and the few parked cars along the road were barely covered with a thin layer of white snow.

Eventually, judging a snowball fight to be impractical, I watched the youngest members and Kim Seonghyeon, who were squatting next to them, trying to scrape together enough snow to make even a small snowman.

It was both funny and absurd.

Nice

Ahaha.

Seong Jiwon, who seemed to have something to say, kept his gaze fixed on the sky sprinkling snow.

I waited quietly.

Hoyun.

While watching the other members with my hands deeply buried in my coat pockets, I turned my head at the call, trying my best to look as kindly as possible.

Yes, what is it?

Go on, tell me.

I was ready.

There is.

Just when I thought my patience the size of a bean was about to pay off, Seong Jiwon looked at me and asked in a calm voice.

Have you talked with Yoon Heeun-sunbae?
