Debut or Die

If you can’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease Episode 512

“… … .”

Park Moon-dae and Kim Rae-bin’s room where silence fell.

A former member of Steer said so through the mouth of Ryu Gun-woo, who stood tall.

-I won the case.

So Steer is not a drug group.

“… … .”

A wordless shock rang through the air.

Steer Ryu Cheng-wu muttered to himself.

“Win.”

“okay.”

It seemed that the image of a member who had already withdrawn came to mind beyond the answering Ryu Kun-woo.

Actor Lee Se-jin A.

Ryu Cheng-wu opened his mouth involuntarily.

“how?”

He knew how the trial unfolded.

It is because I checked and remembered the reaction of Steer Bae Se-jin when he was arrested for drug distribution.

What I said with a face that was pale with resentment, resentment, and fear.

-no!

He believed the words to be true.

It wasn’t that I was embarrassed because I was caught, but that it was sharpness that came out of resentment.

‘It’s a misunderstanding or false accusation.’

So, the hours of thinking every morning about how this group can survive until the charges are lifted.

Looking back now, it was better then.

Contrary to the plan, Lee Se-jin A’s charges were not released.

Thanks to the burning public opinion, the verdict came out frighteningly quickly. and.

[< Azusa > debut group steer Lee Se-jin sentenced to prison in the first trial… “The crime is bad”]

Prison sentenced.

However, Lee Se-jin A did not give up.

And the more he appealed, the worse the public opinion on the Internet got. It’s amazing that there’s still room for it to get worse.

-Boring drug lords

-Anyway, drug dealers seem to have sold their brains and consciences

-Pasoon must have been pretty good at sucking money

. Those days continued

as if even close people should investigate .

When an article was published, excited people flocked to it and then disappeared like the ebb tide.

after so long

After being sentenced to prison in the second trial of Gearko, this topic has not even become a hot potato in public opinion.

It’s because there’s no room for controversy, and it’s cold.

– Haha it’s ugly

“… … .”

And Liu Cheng-wu couldn’t be unaware that there was almost no chance that the result would suddenly change to acquittal in the final 3rd trial Supreme Court.

Because the article already said so.

In fact, it was common sense that could be explained with just one comment without considering the complicated trial procedural issues such as the legal and factual trial discussed in the article.

-Evidence has already come out, but why did

the money come and go like that?

“… … .”

Only then did Liu Cheng-wu give up looking for the outcome of the trial.

He was already tired enough.

‘I can’t do it.’

In the midst of bullying and freezing the collapsing group and somehow sustaining it, there was no energy to spend on this torture of hope.

He decided to be realistic.

But here it all turns upside down like a lie… At the end of the end, the explanation that he was eventually acquitted.

It is borrowing from another person’s mouth with a consciousness that you do not even know where the person concerned is.

‘Lee Se-jin A, who was a steer, did not distribute drugs.’

The overwhelming meaning of that one sentence.

“… … .”

Ryu Gun-woo opened his mouth again.

Lee Se-jin A’s words came out.

“I can understand your disbelief.”

There are very few cases where you are suddenly acquitted only in the third trial.

-Lee Se-jin A: However, it is not that there is no way if a legitimate reason for appeal can be found.

-Lee Se-jin A: In my case, it was a false statement by a witness.

Lee Se-jin A found a contradiction in the statement of his biological father who bet him to get a reduced sentence and overturned it.

It was the result of tenacity, tenacity, meticulousness, and a bit of bad luck.

“It took a long time, but in the end I was able to overturn the original judgment and go to trial again.”

Ryu Gun-woo calmly read the message.

A lot of agony, a trial that went through several years, and the end of another trial.

“I won.”

“… … .”

innocence.

“Don’t lie about this. There is no need for that.”

Ryu Gun-woo was still calm.

And that calmness really seemed to guarantee Lee Se-jin A to speak the truth without hesitation.

Everyone in the room felt it.

“… … .”

And as if to break the silence, one person jumped out.

“You fXXking did it!”

It was Cha Yoo-jin.

The room is suddenly filled with noise and heat.

He hugged Ryu Gun-woo roughly and reacted hotly like a manager who ran into a boxer who had just won.

Of course, Ryu Gun-woo refused.

“Not me.”

“i know. please forward!”

Cha Yoo-jin said in a slightly trembling voice.

[I’m sorry I didn’t look all the way.]

“… … .”

Ryu Gun-woo nodded with a slight smile.

“Thank you.”

“Oh… .”

The stiff atmosphere melted in an instant.

However, the remaining two people were still sitting motionless in their seats, like mangbuseok.

It was a shocking difference.

Unlike Cha Yu-jin, who has already completed the internal conflict as a steer, for these two, all of these events are currently in progress.

‘Right.’

So, after roughly separating Cha Yoo-jin, Ryu Gun-woo opened his mouth again.

to convey the following words.

-Lee Se-jin A: But I know.

-Lee Se-jin A: My victory means a lot only to me.

“For you guys, even if you come now and hear these things, it won’t change what you’ve already been through.”

Steer took a big hit from a member’s drug charges at the beginning of their debut, and with that as the starting point, they collapsed and disbanded.

It was a command that would never change.

Even if it turns out now that it wasn’t true, the public won’t be interested. Frustratingly.

“… And I have no intention of denying that the injustice I went through has also caused great damage to you guys. It can’t be.”

but.

-Lee Se-jin A: But you can change the way you feel when you recall the memories of that time.

Steer didn’t fail just because he was damn good.

That way you can come up with reasons to refute yourself.

“… So I just wanted to let you know that I was legally proven and recognized.”

-Lee Se-jin A: That’s all.

“… … .”

After that, Ryu Gun-woo closed his mouth.

No more message pop-ups. As if I had finished everything I really wanted to say and had no regrets.

It was then.

“I.”

A hand came up from one side of the bed.

It was Kim Rae-bin, whose eyes were slightly red.

“that… It must have been a lot of trouble, but can I say I’m sorry I couldn’t be of any help… .”

Ryu Gun-woo nodded happily.

Steer Kim Rae-bin seemed a bit confused, but as if clearing his mind, he continued to speak slowly and earnestly, thinking about each letter.

“and… It’s late, but congratulations. However, what does the phrase ‘you can change the way you think when you think about the past’ mean specifically?”

Lee Se-jin A thought about it, but eventually answered like this.

-Lee Se-jin A: I think it’s right to feel it yourself. If someone else tells you, it’s someone else’s idea, and it becomes an obligation or compulsion.

“okay.”

Kim Rae-bin thought again and only one steer remained. I knew that myself.

Steer Ryu Chung-woo.

‘… … .’

He too knew the right answer.

‘That’s a lot of trouble’ ‘I’m glad your innocence was proved’ ‘I’m sorry I couldn’t find out the news in advance’… … .

But these words did not come out of my mouth.

It was because of exhaustion.

The original inclination to be a person who always said such things with sincerity revived in his mind that had been blown away by shock.

However, it was not that I wanted to resent Lee Se-jin A now. just… It felt like my head was somehow swept away by the overwhelming fact.

“… I see.”

All I could do was a few simple words. He raised his head, trying not to return to his dry, tired expression.

It was then.

“Cheongwoo Ryu.”

-Lee Se-jin A: You… I thought we’d continue the group here.

“… … .”

Ryu Gun-woo delivered without taking his eyes off the air.

“If you want to do well here, I will cheer you on. … You’ve been through a lot in the past. Thank you for trusting me and I’m sorry.”

Ryu Gun-woo delivered those words without censorship.

Even though it must have been an embarrassing statement from the point of view of Testa Park Moon-dae.

“… … .”

“Although it took a long time… .”

-Lee Se-jin A: I won without compromise.

-Lee Se-jin A: Your virtue will also be there.

Liu Qingyu did not answer.

But he didn’t deny it, he didn’t change his words, he didn’t even moderately affirm it.

He just raised his head without saying a word, then lowered it slightly.

like nodding your head.

-Lee Se-jin A: Thank you for listening.

That’s how the conversation with Lee Se-jin A ended.

Cha Yoo-jin seemed to want to say a few more words with him, but the big moon rushed in and the situation had to end.

“brother! I fall down… !”

“No I… .”

And it was briefed indirectly that Ryu Gun-woo was overdoing it, and the seat was finished.

Thanks to this, the former steer members scattered and went back to their beds, immersed in different thoughts.

“… … .”

In fact, during the Steer days, Lee Se-jin A was implicitly prohibited from mentioning within the group.

It happened naturally. There was no backlash.

This is because most of the members have only had public conversations for about half a year. At the time, steer Lee Se-jin A was very defensive and reacted sensitively to his peers.

Still, no one thought that what had just happened was meaningless.

For example, Rabin Kim here.

“Good night.”

“yes… .”

Following the recommendation of another member, he quietly lay down on the bed, but did not fall asleep right away.

Steer Kim Rae-bin continued to worry.

He continued to think honestly as advised by Lee Se-jin A, befitting his sincere personality built on the basis of his natural temperament and childhood.

‘When I think of the past, I have a different mindset… la.’

He recalled the steer activity and changed the fact that became the base. Just like correcting the beat while arranging.

-Steer has a member arrested on drug charges.

– Steer’s drug charges were not justified.

It was just an unfair false accusation.

‘then… My shortcomings too.’

Could there have been other reasons other than talent and effort?

Former idol Kim Rae-bin, who gave up on the stage, thought involuntarily.

However, his consciousness was soon scattered in the pouring sleep.

It was a quiet sleep.

* * *

And the same time.

Bae Se-jin, who had fallen asleep in his comfortable solitary cell, realized that he had regained consciousness.

But it didn’t wake up.

-hi.

‘… … ?’

A dark-haired man with a calm expression was standing in front of him.

It was a familiar face.

-I came because I had time to talk to you.

It was because Bae Se-jin was himself.

Of course, Bae Se-jin, who was sleeping, had no way to know that ‘Lee Se-jin A’, who was returning after an agreement with Ryu Gun-woo, had come all the way through the system, and reacted like this.

“… ??”

what kind of dream is this?

– How do you feel about life now?

“what? Who are you?”

-… They seem to be living well, but their personalities are still the same. i’m right

It was an alumni answer. However, Bae Se-jin also frowned and replied similarly, so it would not be unfair.

It’s because the realization came like lightning in an instant.

“Are you the old me? Was it that steer? that group.”

-… … .

Bae Se-jin saw the other person’s reaction and realized that he had got the answer right.

‘oh my god.’

He swallowed his saliva at a body that did not exist.

However, to see him as a person who caused a lot of trouble to the team… The person in front of me looked very firm and mature.

‘what?’

Anyway, he had something to ask immediately.

“if… Am I going to become you like the other kids now? You lose your memory.”

Fortunately, Lee Se-jin A shook his head.

-That won’t happen. But you can have this memory.

“… okay.”

Bae Se-jin hardened his expression for a moment, but soon finished his thoughts and nodded.

“okay. that’s fine.”

I didn’t even know it was necessary.

From Cha Yoo-jin to Ryu Cheong-woo and Kim Rae-bin.

I wanted to find out why the members who had a memory of debuting as a group called ‘Steer’ in the past had a strange attitude towards them.

He clenched his fists and spoke calmly.

“I am ready to be remembered.”

Lee Se-jin A immediately refused.

-I won’t.

“… what?”

Bae Se-jin was at a loss for words.

-I’m sorry, but I only came because I wanted to check my condition myself.

‘Former steer Lee Se-jin A’ was the consciousness of Bae Se-jin who was sleeping anyway, and his memory was changed there.

In other words, he planned to return his memories without regret after seeing himself objectively.

-You don’t have to remember and know all the past. Growth can go in different directions.

Pain alone does not make a person grow.

And now, Testa Bae Se-jin seems to be growing well.

Lee Se-jin A nodded as if to admit it.

However, Bae Se-jin was serious.

“Why are you judging that by yourself?”

-… !

“I know my condition better.”

remember me

… In the middle of the night, not being the same person with the same name, who had only become conscious, he started an intense self-answer.
