Become an Idol or Become Deceased! [fan translation] P.1

Chapter 70

When I opened the locked door and walked into the room, Lee Sejin, who was sitting gloomily on his bed, got startled.

"Huh...!"

"Please, get a hold of yourself."

I sat on the opposite bed. Ryu Chungwoo and Keun Sejin, who I expected to follow immediately, were nowhere to be seen. 

'...I guess they're out of it.'

The two have every reason for it.

Well, that's fine. Since Lee Sejin is like that, he can't sleep anyway, so let's see what he's thinking about.

'I wish I had a drink.'

There was no way that an idol group that was just about to debut would have such a thing in their dorms. It was unfortunate, but I just started speaking anyway.

"Hyung, you know that we will have an interview at the company tomorrow morning or dawn anyway."

"...!"

"If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to just relax and organize your thoughts here? This is not a situation that can just be avoided by escaping."

Whether the ability 'Now that you mention it, you are right' activated or not, Lee Sejin opened his mouth after some time passed.

"...I don't know."

"What do you not know?"

"What I want to do..."

"...?"

Isn't it too late to worry about your career path now?

"Do you want to go back to your former agency and continue acting?"

"...I don't want to go back."

"Then do you mean you still want to continue acting?"

"...Isn't that obvious?"

Lee Sejin buried his face in his palms.

"I never thought of becoming an idol in the first place."

"..."

This somehow reminds me of when the status abnormality popped up...

I clicked my tongue.

'I guess he didn't participate in the audition voluntarily.'

"It seem you participated in <Idol Co> because of your former agency?"

"...That's right. I had a long break... so I was told to do that to get work."

"Hmm."

I spoke casually.

"You still worked hard for that."

"...The least I can do is work hard. Since I can't do well." 

Lee Sejin was a little angry.

'Hmm, I think it was different from that.'

I remembered what he said to me in the final.

- You will debut, so it wouldn't be over for you, right? ...It must be nice.

Doesn't that mean he wants to keep going? In addition, the change in Lee Sejin's status window was also noticeable.

'There is no F now'

Lee Sejin had raised his dance stats that were F when the filming just started to D+ now.
