MDQ Ch 34
Kang Kimoon and I sat facing each other at the dining table. The ladies who had confirmed I was still alive had already gone back to their homes. Without asking why I had cried, Kang Kimoon simply began eating. Come to think of it, he hadn’t asked how I knew him, where I had come from, or who I was. He had only given me a space to rest and prepared a delicious meal for me, as if all he wanted was for me to regain my strength. I thought that must be his way of showing consideration. Otherwise,…-

If I were to define Kang Kimoon in one word, he was a genius. Since he first wrote lyrics when he was a high school student ten years ago, not a single song he composed or wrote in the following decade failed to become famous. The reason I knew this in such detail was because I too liked his work. Even if I were asked to list ten songs he had produced right now, I could rattle them off without hesitation. In short, he was an object of admiration. Though my own abilities were lacking and I…-

MDQ Ch 32
“Handsome young man, have some of this.” She wasn’t saying she knew I was a bad person—she was just telling me to eat something…? Even hearing it, I couldn’t quite believe the words. “Pardon?” While I stupidly echoed back, a bag holding boiled eggs was suddenly placed in my arms by one of the ladies. Almost at the same time, another lady shoved a plastic bottle of sikhye into my hands. “Drink some sweet rice punch too, in case your throat gets dry.” “…” Why…-

Jung Yohan let out a sigh as the stifling feeling he had carried since before finding Lee Hyunseok welled up in him again. In contrast, Lee Hyunseok answered calmly, as if it didn’t matter, “Yeah, I just want to quit everything. I’m too exhausted.” “You liked me for a long time, didn’t you?” “I did. I still do.” “Then why…!” Lee Hyunseok cut off his accusatory tone, “You hate that I like you. You think it’s disgusting. Isn’t that why you stayed silent even when the…-

Lee Hyunseok had disappeared with Park Chungrim three days ago after visiting the company over the plagiarism issue. Jung Yohan had waited near Lee Hyunseok’s family home for the past three days, but of course, Lee Hyunseok never showed up. It was highly likely that he was receiving help from Park Chungrim. If not, then he was probably hiding out in some cheap motel. But today—on the very day the article about the abusive manager scandal broke—Jung Yohan thought maybe Lee Hyunseok would have…-

MDQ Ch 3
Three years ago, Given, which had been hitting record highs with every promotion, had a chronic problem that the public never knew about. The problem was that their manager changed frequently. The reason was the members. They subtly put pressure on the managers. For example, they would treat managers living in the dorm like thieves or subtly ostracize them to make life difficult. At first, there were countless instances where I was accused of being a thief who stole a member’s wallet or a corrupt…-

MDQ Ch 29
At most, he thought it would be a week. Jung Yohan firmly believed that Lee Hyunseok would return within a week. But as Lee Hyunseok still did not return, an unexplainable suffocation began to build inside him. It was hard to believe that he would disappear like this just because he’d been betrayed by his father. Being betrayed was one thing, but as an adult, shouldn’t he know how to conduct himself properly? Even if Given was on hiatus, Jung Yohan thought it was not right for someone…-

What was fortunate amidst it all was that there were no interviews from the Given members that sounded like they were siding against me. If even one of the four had confirmed that I had abused my power, I would have been even more devastated. I would have bitterly regretted the past days when I had taken the blame for the mistakes of the Given members… ‘Do they at least have a speck of conscience left?’ I handed the tablet I had been holding back to Park Chungrim. I was angry and my head…-

I lay on the bed in the guest room Park Chungrim had given me and looked at my phone. Only three days had passed, yet almost all of the articles about Park Saebit’s plagiarism had disappeared. Plagiarism or reference. The gap between Unauthorized lyric use suspicion—Park Saebit’s side: ‘We apologize for the lack of caution’ Only that much remained. What Park Chungrim had said—that they had quickly reached a settlement with the original lyricist without much issue—was not a…-

MDQ Ch 26
I forced myself to think of something else so I wouldn’t cling to the past. What came to mind naturally was the moment before I lost consciousness. The betrayal of the CEO I trusted, Park Saebit’s threats, and their words telling me I would regret it. That day, if Park Chungrim hadn’t appeared at just the right time, what would have happened to me? That day, where had Jung Yohan been? Does Jung Yohan also believe I plagiarized? Wouldn’t he have taken my side, at least? ‘What a…-
