.  [You know, Lee Nara, right? The actress in the ‘Blue Flame’ and ‘To the Gorgeous Sky.’ Anyway, in her recent review, she replied to the question about her most ideal type as, ‘A guys who’s the closest to model Yoo Chun Young.]

  “What?”


  ‘It’s model Yoo Chun…… instead of saying like that, what is it about a guy who’s the closest to model Yoo Chun Young?’ Anyway, although I didn’t remember the actors and actresses’ names when watching TV dramas, ‘Lee Nara’ was clearly inside my head. A renowned actress herself, she always took the leading roles in many popular dramas.

  ‘Geez, that famous woman pointed out Yoo Chun Young? Because of this, he would be even busier than now. Would it be almost impossible to see his face from now?’ With that thought in mind, I became a little nervous.

  I, however, got surprised to find out myself turning anxious about that. I hit my head. Scowling at the monitor in tearful eyes, I thought, ‘What’s wrong with me? Why am I being anxious?!’


  The reason why I couldn’t first reach out to Yoo Chun Young was that I was afraid to interrupt him sleeping while being aware of his weird lifestyle. He was so bad in electronics that he turned off his phone in the theaters or in school instead of putting it into silent mode. Even I taught him how to do it, he forgot eventually.

  ‘At home, he would turn his phone on to receive calls for the shoot. If I send him a message while he’s in sleep, the sound could get him up, which would ruin his schedule and so on…… Gosh!’ I rubbed my head. ‘It’s still hard to reach him out and even harder to see his face, but if he becomes busier than now……’ thinking that way, I opened the web and checked out trending searches on the portal.

  What Dam Eun said was true. The most searched word right now on the portal was, no other than, ‘Lee Nara & Yoo Chun.’ Having both of their names, especially a man and a woman together, on the trending searches meant a topic about love scandal or ideal types.

  As I clicked the keyword of their names and scrolled down, there I saw a few articles that said, ‘Lee Nara of [Blue Fame] Reveals Her Ideal Type of Guy…… Model Yoo Chun?’ ‘Song Ji Hun Didn’t Even Know About Her Ideal Type of Guy…… [Photo: Song Ji Hun’s Confused Smile]’


  Song Ji Hun was Lee Nara’s partner in the recent TV drama. He was also a well-known actor but compared to her, he still was not that enough. Scanning the article, I murmured with my chin on my hand.

  “Well, [Blue Flame] recently finished, so, oh…… maybe it was an interview for that.”


  It was indeed an article written after that interview as it had a photo of Song Ji Hun smiling in confusion at the bottom.

  Lee Nara, inside the photo, had very light brown hair and almost golden eyes, which made people gossip about her as a mixed-blood. Her pure and refreshing smile was indeed breathtaking as it was on the TV. At the bottom of the article, there was a summary of the interview.

  ‘.…… Lee Nara answered to the question, ‘Between your previous drama “To the Gorgeous Sky” and the current drama “Blue Flame,” which partner is closer to your ideal type of guy?’ as ‘I like a guy who is the closest to model Yoo Chun.’ Her unpredictable response surprised everyone……’


  Normally, famous actresses reaching the level of Lee Nara escaped this sort of questions skillfully. When I read the comments below, half of them were negative comments saying sarcastically about her targeting the heir of Balhae Group in purpose.

  Scrolling down the comments apathetically, I heard a voice coming through my ear.

  [Hey, but that’s not why I called you right now.]

  “Huh? Oh, yeah.”


  Focusing on the article too much, I completely forgot that I was on the phone. As I responded in perplexity, Dam Eun spoke to me in a lower voice than earlier.

  [So I got to recall your friends and thought if you were still close to them. You know, once we go to high school, friends in middle school often get out of touch.]

  “Yeah, true. That happens a lot.”


  [But you said that you were fine, and do you remember that? When I found their fan pages.]

  “Oh, I do,” I replied promptly.

  It was nothing strange about the Four Heavenly Kings or Ban Yeo Ryung having fan pages; however, the problem was the increase of paparazzi.

  Eun Jiho’s family attorney came forward to resolve the issue, which made all the fan pages of them close eventually.

  I asked, “Is there another one opened?]

  [No, this time it’s not a fan page but an anti-fan club.]

  “What?”


  My jaw dropped out of disconcertion. Dam Eun answered back.

  [It’s an anti-fan club of Ban Yeo Ryung.]

  “Gosh, an anti-fan? Then, do they write swears about Ban Yeo Ryung on that club? What crazy assholes are they!”


  When we were in middle school, some kids did something like that but not in a huge group. Were they gathering up because they felt bored with doing such things alone? Someone said that those eagerly leaving negative comments about others were those who were bored and having nothing to do in their lives. I completely agreed to those words.

  I closed the article of Lee Nara’s interview then heaved a sigh. When I searched it on the web, there really existed the anti-fan club of Ban Yeo Ryung. Over the phone, Dam Eun’s whisper-like voice continued.

  [Ban Yeo Ryung’s fan club or fan pages before had thousands of people, but this anti-fan club only had 45 members. It didn’t seem that effective to take action on a small group of people, so I quietly signed up and tried to post some comments about how miserable they were to do such things. I was then going to withdraw from the club. Although I wasn’t that close to Ban Yeo Ryung in elementary school, you were her best friend since young.]

  “Yeah.”


  That made sense. Only 45 members were in that anti-café and nothing was so active in there, so reporting them seemed quite odd for now. While I thought that way, Dam Eun kept on her words.

  [So I registered with that thought in mind, but as I browsed some posts there, something was strange.]

  “Why? What was strange?”


  [I think that the one who’ve made this club seems to know Ban Yeo Ryung in person. Or else, how could someone know what Ban Yeo Ryung had for lunch or in a snack bar? Geez, there was too much information, so freaking out. I don’t know. Let me just tell you my ID and password, so log in and check out. Let’s be in touch.]

  “Uh…… yeah.”


  Putting on a sour face, I quickly picked up a pen and a paper to write down the login information. After I hung up the phone, I entered the club, where I found the ID of the owner.

  ‘ham310…… is this person born on March 10th and has ‘Ham’ for the last name?’ To think about it, this person had the same birthday and last name as me. ‘Well, there’s this usual pattern when creating an ID, although I’ve made mine with something easy to type,’ with that thought in mind, I entered the board. Half of the posts were written by ham310 and each had averagely 20 comments below, which looked very activated. I clicked a random post that came into my sight then.

  Title: Dude, it’s when Ban Yeo Ryung was in middle school

  By: ham310

  Date: 2007/06/07

  Content: Lolololololol this is something insane about her.

  When Ban Yeo Ryung was a sophomore in middle school, a very pretty girl was in her upper grade.

  She was such a gorgeous and famous sunbae whom everyone in our neighborhood knew.

  She was particularly close to the kendo club members in D middle school.

  Almost the girl version of Ban Yeo Dan.

  At this part, I frowned my brows. ‘What the…… if the girl version of Ban Yeo Dan existed in our middle school, the entire kids in our school would have gone crazy as many times as they could.’ Anyway, I kept on reading the remaining post thinking, ‘Why is this person talking like he or she knows about things back then?’


  Ban Yeo Ryung might have had a quarrel with that pretty sunbae lol. Not sure but I guess Ban Yeo Ryung has begun the fight first. Maybe she felt so jealous about that sunbae stealing others’ attention from Ban Yeo Ryung for her goddess looks?!

  After that quarrel, that pretty sunbae cried and her friends tried to cool her down, but the worst thing happened afterward.

  She had an ex-boyfriend, who broke up with her soon after their 100th day anniversary…… but he confessed his crush on Ban Yeo Ryung the day after he broke up with that sunbae.

  What a coincidence? Can you believe that? Isn’t it too obvious?!

  ‘Jesus Christ……’ as I read the entire post while holding my breath, I couldn’t help laughing out of its ridiculousness. Furrowing my brows, I looked for other posts. Ban Yeo Ryung cut the bangs, wore a cardigan to school…… something like those were there. ‘Hmm……’ Doubts began to rise and replaced the anger I had until that moment.
