2022-12-28 21:17:55When evening comes as requested by Mira, Hyomi prepared a casual style. It's very simple. A plain peach shirt that looks baggy with long jeans. Long hairstyle. As a complement, a mini sling bag and white sneakers. They are going somewhere.
Asem Entertainment Atrium.
“Are you brings me to become a trainee?!”
“Don't tell me you don't know this place?”
“Of course i know! I guide Hyuk while doing reporting in this place. But I never come just for fun. All for work.”
Hyomi try to remain sane in the crowd of people who occasionally stabbed her on the shoulder. Atmosphere is very noisy. Between the hysterical sounds of people who are so happy to come to the atrium and the songs of Asem Entertainment’s Artist.
Yo, okayNa hokshi molla gyeonggohaneunde(Jal deureo) jigeum wiheomhae (So dangerous)Jakku nareul jageukaji ma(Keunil na) nado nal molla
“Omo?!” Mira being surprised and hold Hyomi’s hand.
“Why?!”
“This the one of popular song from XD!”
“This song?!” Hyomi asked louder.
“Yes! Let’s go inside!”
Hyomi had no choice but to give up Mira's instructions, which led her to go inside. The central of atrium. Hyomi knows this place. It is a paradise for K-pop from all over the world and one of the most favorite tourist spots for tourists. And Mira never gets tired of coming here many times.
Asem Entertainment Atrium has 6 floors. Which on the first floor is the welcome room. Above it the second floor of the atrium which has celebrity shop. All visitors will be spoiled with any K-pop merchandises from all of Asem Entertainment's celebrities.
On the third floor, received with various stars victory trophies. Fourth floor. No less interesting, there is a cafe that is greeted with a star standee. Finally, the fifth and sixth floors, which have concert or theater holograms.
A large poster is very visible in front of your eyes. As usual, Mira was excited to see her idol poster.
“See, this XD!”
She thought Hyomi would be amazed. In fact she just looked at XD poster with her meaningless gaze. Flat. Nothing special.
“Ya!” Mira screaming.
“It doesn't mean anything! I knew they are XD!” Hyomi pointed at the poster.
Mira took a deep breath, “Well, i tell their name from the right one!”
Actually Hyomi knows about XD because she’s work in entertainment life even if she doesn't know each member. But he didn't want to know either. He will appreciate it because his friend is so passionate.
“Wow.. do you know all about the members? How about the other group?” After hearing Mira's explanation, Hyomi asked.
“What for?! I’m the biggest fan of XD!”
For a moment, Hyomi suppressed laughter and followed Mira to another space. Hyomi and Mira surround the atrium. Join Mira for hunting k-pop stuf. From then on, Hyomi began to understand about fangirling.
“See! Who is he?!”
“Uhmm.. Their faces are not the same. Honestly i can imagine all six. But i still don't know their names.”
“See his unique ear! He is Jun!”
“Ah~ Jun!”
“Handsome, right?”
Hyomi can't deny that Jun in the poster is indeed handsome.
“He’s such a happy virus.”
“Happy virus?”
“He is a sociable, friendly and very talented!”
Hyomi claping her hand, “You talk seems you know him!”
“I have told you already! Ah, and this...,” Mira took a photocard which made Hyomi's smile fade a bit, “and this is my ultimate bias. Dancing King, Kai!”
Finally Hyomi just nodded, “Ok, i will memorize XD member at home. Let’s go home!”
“Wait!”
“Anything else you want?”
“What if you get the chance to interview them?”
Hyomi chuckled, “That's not my specialty. Usually something like that, i throw it at my juniors. Just focus on nature tourism."
“I really envy you. Although i participated in the selection of reporters several times, i was always destined to take a behind screen.”
Instead of going straight home, they stopped at the Atrium Cafe. A clear cold night. Make ice cream the best dish and add raspberry pancakes. Twinkling stars are visible from the window with music.
“I was so corious.. why you really love XD?”
“I didn't love it either at first.”
“So?”
“So i love them so so much!”
Hyomi took a deep breath as she scratched her temples, which did not itch.
Mira stopped her laugh, “Honestly.. They came when i was tired. You know? Our works are tired and they showered with happiness.”
“Turned out to be very influential.”

“26. XD Exclusive Talk Show... by Hyomi and Hyuk!”
And Mira's words became reality! On this day, there was a divisional meeting of Seoul Entertainment News reporters and Hyomi assigned as host for XD Talk Show. It was surprised. At the meeting were XD-L—XD’s fandom, Mira and Eunbi. They work behind the scenes, but hope to at least be the part of XD Talk Show.
“Heol?! Daebak!”
Mira was speechless and continued to stare blankly at her friend's face.
“Is this the way you can understand more about them?”
Hyomi smiles awkwardly as she packs her things after the meeting, “I’m so sorry, i know you really want it.”
“Yeah! I really really jealous with you. But this is our job! There are always many surprises we face. As a host, reporter, you possibility even deal with people you hate too. In the meantime, i'm behind the scenes. Your job is harder.”
“Thank you! But.. Would you like to help me for write the script? As you know, idols have a lot of sensitive topic, so I hope experts can help XD-L.”
“Ohoo~ You know about XD-L?”
“I study a lot about XD. And it wasn't in vain that i had to deal with them.”
Hyomi and Hyuk are at the same table to create an agenda for XD Exclusive Talk Show and Mira will add to the script later. There are laptop and books in front of them.
Hyuk said while holding the book, “Wow! You have some book about XD? I was amazed. It turns out that behind the persistence at work is XD.”
“Do not misunderstand! It belongs to Mira. I borrowed it. Ah.. No! She gave me that book to know about XD.”
“Ah~ i think you are XD-L like other any co-worker.”
Drrt.. drrt..
Hyomi's cell phone vibrate gets Hyuk's attention, who just received an email from Minra sending him the script he needed. Hyuk finds Hyomi's blanky gaze while looking at text messages on her cell phone.
“A-are you, ok?” he want to make sure.
Hyomi was speechless. The world seemed to stop spinning. There is something odd about the message and she guessing the error. Hyomi let hyuk to read.

Hey, bitch! Are you proud to interview super megastars? Your life will not be happy. You will get a dark life! Stop fucking arround!

He felt like going back to sleep, because he wasn't sure his day would go on as usual.Hyomi woke Mira who was still dreaming beside her, but the girl stretched her body instead. Feels like lazy.

Turn off the light!" asked Mira who felt the light stab her eyes suddenly. Though it's not a lamp.Hyomi sniffed roughly while facing Mira who was still lying on a square object made of foam.
