Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 23

Choi Si-Yoon rushed to get the powdered milk. Seojun pouted his lips at his first late meal.

“Come on, eat.”

Seojun took the nipples. While Brown Black was struggling with powdered milk, Seo Eun-chan got up and opened the door.

“Are you here already? You’re just in time.”

Seo Eun-Hye and Lee Min-Joon were standing outside. The couple laughed awkwardly. Seojun thought they were just in time, too.

But, in reality, the couple wanted to see their son, so they were waiting in the apartment parking lot for an hour already.

“I’m afraid everyone was suffering due to Seojun.”

Brown Black quickly waved their hands at those words.

“No! Seojun was so nice that we had a great time.”

“Oh, welcome!”

“Hello!”

Everyone was talking gibberish because of embarrassment. Seo Eun-Hye and Lee Min-Joon also greeted them back.

Seeing that the four idols were still full of energy without showing signs of exhaustion, the 48 hours together with Seojun seemed to be better than they thought.

“Come on in. There’s going to be a cold wind.”

Seo Eun-chan pushed the couple’s back and closed the door.

Seo Eun-Hye and Lee Min-Joon saw Seojun sitting in the living room.

Seojun’s eyes turned to them.

‘It’s mom and dad! They said they’d give me a present, but mom and dad are actually here!’

Seojun already forgot the dolls, snacks, and snowballs that the brothers showed.

“Abububu!”

His mom and dad were so happy to meet him again after 48 hours. With the bottle hanging in his mouth, Seojun raised his arms and insisted on hugging them both.

Seo Eun-Hye carried Seojun and grabbed the bottle so that Seojun could easily eat.

In Seo Eun-chan’s eyes, Brown Black didn’t want to leave immediately, but it will become a nuisance to his sister and her husband if they stay too long.

Also, he had to go to the company to edit all the videos, and Brown Black had to practice for their debut a month later.

“Then let’s start packing and shoot the last scene.”

At Seo Eun-chan’s words, Brown Black scattered everywhere to pack their belongings. As they packed their clothes, they looked at Seojun, looked at a toy and looked at Seojun again.

Lee Min-Joon opened his mouth because he felt sorry for Brown Black, who was sad that the time spent with Seojun had ended.

“You can come back and visit him.”

“…what?”

“Eun-Chan, you and Brown Black are always welcome to visit Seojun.”

They thought they did not see each other forever, didn’t they? Brown Black’s expression went blank.

Were they really allowed to come back again?

“Aren’t we be busy after debut?”

“I know. If you’re busy, it will become harder to come over.”

Brown Black shook their head at the same time at the proposal of Lee Min-Joon and Seo Eun-Hye. They all had a teary face, but they still smiled their brightest.

“No! No matter how busy I am, I will come.”

“If I really can’t make it, I’ll just call!”

“Video call! Video call!”

“Send him a birthday present later!”

Everyone laughed at Brown Black’s bright smile. Seojun also waved at Brown Black and his uncle they entered the elevator.

“They’re gone.”

Seo Eun-Hye and Lee Min-Joon closed the door and entered their house. Seo Eun-chan decided to clean up the camera installed at their home later on.

“Whoosh.”

It’s quiet.

The crowded house was now empty. Seo Eun-Hye and Lee Min-Joon, who were not here for the last 48 hours, didn’t know, but Seojun definitely felt it. It felt like the house was too big.

“Wow, it’s a Christmas tree.”

“They’re still trainees. They don’t have much money. How did they get this?”

They heard that they would decorate the Christmas tree, but Seo Eun-Hye and Lee Min-Joon were surprised that it was big and full of expensive materials. Seojun also looked at the tree within his mother’s arms.

The tree was decorated in a very colorful manner. While looking around the tree, Lee Min-Joon found a clear ball between the decorations.

“What about this?”

“What’s wrong?”

There were four capsules. Lee Min-Joon sat on the sofa and opened the capsule. Seo Eun-Hye also sat next to her and watched.

“Seojun.”

Lee Min-Joon called his son’s name as if he was moved. Seojun, who was sucking his bottle, turned his head to his father’s call.

“Your brothers left you a letter.”

“Huh?”

“Wow, really? When did they write it down?”

At Seo Eun-Hye’s urging, Lee Min-Joon slowly read the letter.

Seo Eun-Hye and Lee Min-Joon smiled, realizing how much Brown Black had fun with Seojun.

After reading all the letters, Seo Eun-Hye and Lee Min-Joon decided to keep the four letters in an album. They picked out the prettiest album at home and put the letter in there.

In the evening, Seo Eun-chan, who came to pick up the camera, found Brown Black’s letter in an album and shouted.

“Nooo! If they did something good thing like this, I should have gone to shoot it! Those bastards!”

“Seojun finally said his first words! Give me the video later!”

Seo Eun-Hye said something, but Seo Eun-chan, who didn’t even listen, quickly removed all the cameras installed in their house and ran back to the dorm.

Seo Eun-Hye clenched her fist because of her younger brother, who left without even looking back.

‘I’ll give him a punch if he comes later.’

Lee Min-Joon, who was smiling, reaching up to his ears, was holding Seojun and raising him high in the living room.

“Daddy, try it, Seojun! Daddy!”

“Dada?”

Seo Eun-Hye quickly closed the door and ran over.

“Seojun, mom. Mom, try it.”

“Mama?”

Lee Seojun, eight months. He was finally able to say his first word: Dada and Mama.

Seojun hugged all of Kim Hee-sung’s creation of monster dolls. Finally he can have them again.

Skull Lich King doll. Slime. Dragon. Orc. Twin Head Ogre. Troll. Werewolf. He hug each one.

After playing with Brown Black and filming, he felt more excited and frantic. Now he felt like a real baby.

In addition, he barely touched the only doppelganger bear he had left from his mom and dad.

‘I’m confused Am I a more baby now or was this really me?’

 In a complicated mood, Seojun hugged the dragon doll. He thought he could forgive the dragon doll now.

Before the library of life was created, he remembered all his previous life and almost had a state of self-destruction.

He was treated as a strange monster, mixed with evil and good tendencies, and punished for heresy.

Seojun made the library with all his efforts. The library was a place of seals that prevented previous life from affecting the next one.

Seojun’s memories of his past life turned into a book. In that case, Seojun’s memory was changed to a “readable book” memory. Sometimes it will affect his personality.

‘I lost in my baby’s instincts to the point where I was just playing for a while.’

Seojun hugged the dragon doll tightly.

When he fell asleep, he headed to the library of life. There, memories became clearer and reasonable.

That’s why Seojun, who couldn’t speak a month ago, could make a sound out of his mouth. It was because of the library.

The monster dolls were essential things that hold him from becoming more than a baby he is now.

* * *

Seo Eun-chan sent all the videos to Seo Eun-hye.

“I can’t believe Seojun can finally talk! I should have seen it!”

Seo Eun-chan, crying while hitting the ground, watched the recorded video with Seo Eun-hye’s permission at Brown Black’s dorm. Everyone burst into tears full of emotions.

He came back to edit after talking about Seojun’s cuteness to his heart’s content.

Kim Soo-ryun, the head of the PR team and the younger sister of Kim Hwa-ryeon, decided to help with the editing.

“…That’s a lot of videos.”

“Hahaha, please.”

“Well, I can only do well if the company does well.”

Kim Soo-ryun rolled up her sleeves. Several images appeared on the monitor screen at the same time.

Seo Eun-chan took out a bunch of paper.

While filming Brown Black, he made a script containing the flow for the show.

“Let’s edit the first meeting first. Please put stickers on the baby’s parents’ faces.….”

“Yes…….”

Seo Eun-chan sat next to Kim Soo-ryeon and slowly told her what to edit. Kim Soo-ryun smiled as she edited the video.

“This is fun, isn’t it?”

“You don’t know how much I laughed while filming.”

-Oh, Seojun is frowning.

-Is he alright? Did he get hurt?

-……It’s okay.

Anxious expression disappeared from Brown Black’s face when they heard from Kim Hwa-ryeon across the camera that he was okay.

Park Seo-jin said.

-……He pooped.

-Oh…….

Brown Black was now facing the challenge of changing the diapers. No matter how cute a baby is…When it comes to poo…

It becomes something unbearable.

Still, Park Seo-jin, who studied hard, rolled up his sleeves.

-……!

The rest of the members changed their faces when Park Seo-jin started changing the diaper.

Park Seo-jin, who handled the diapers neatly, left a comment with a blank look on his face.

-From the colors, you can see that it’s a very healthy poo.

“Let’s edit out this part.”

Kim Soo-ryeon tilted her head at Seo Eun-chan’s words.

“This is their first time changing a diaper as an idol. Isn’t this good enough? Their reaction is good too.”

“Oh, I thought it would be a bit weird to see once Seojun grows up.”

As Seojun’s uncle he wants more for his own good rather than Brown Black for now.

He became stricter regarding his nephew’s future.

“These days, kids are sensitive to even small things. Besides, these videos may last forever while Seojun will grow up.…. I don’t know about anything else, but poo or something.….that’s a little…….”

“Oh…. I see.”

Kim Soo-ryeon understood his uncle’s heart and nodded.

“And I’d like you to edit two more episodes.”

“Which one?”

“[48 Hours of Brown Black with June] I want you to focus more on Jun rather than on Brown Black and edit it. Jun’s fans will watch it more than Brown Black’s fans. And this video will only be posted on the company’s channel.”

Seo Eun-chan took out another piece of paper. Kim Soo-ryeon picked up the paper and read it.

“Song?”

“Yes.”

Seo Eun-chan played one of the videos.

It was a video of Brown Black singing on the first night.

Kim Soo-ryun opened her eyes wide. She heard their practices before, but this was completely different.

“There’s a video of this and the dance and tgeir singing in the playground. I’d like you to edit it separately and upload them only on our company account.”

It was supposed to be on Jun’s account, but they decided to post it on their company’s channel.

On Jun’s channel will have a link to the Cocoa Entertainment channel once the videos will be posted.

“If they watch 48 hours and get interested in Brown Black, they’ll come on our channel. Then they will definitely see these two videos.”

Seo Eun-chan thought the two videos would be a path to Brown Black’s success. Kim Soo-ryun, who was listening to Brown Black’s song, laughed.

“That’s great. I understand.”

“First of all, please edit two 15-minute episodes that will be uploaded for this week. Oh, and please edit the part where a civilian appears in the playground’s video.”

“Okay, I got something to do after a long time.”

Kim Soo-Ryun was the team leader of the PR team but had no singer to promote before, but now, she could finally unleash her talents.

Since the company was new and Brown Black did not debut yet, her work sent information about Brown Black to reporters, just to be ignored without reading them.

It was best to upload an introduction video on Cocoa Entertainment’s homepage and YouTube channel.

“I look forward to your kind cooperation.”

“Leave everything at my disposal.”

“Ah ha. I see.”

The next day, Kim Soo-ryeon, who was spending comfortably at home, made a trailer for [Brown Black and Jun’s 48 Hours] and sent it to Seo Eun-chan.

“I’m sorry. I forgot to ask for your opinion about this first”

“Just add more caption.”

“Are you really leaving it up to me?”

“Ask your sister for help.”

Kim Hwa-ryeon, her older sister, became attached to Seojun, meddled with him the most during the shoot.

Kim Soo-ryeon sat in front of the computer and quietly moved her hands because she was guilty of sending Kim Hwa-ryeon’s during her vacation to film.

“No, add a cuter caption!”

“It will look messy!”

“Don’t you have a cuter and neater color? Didn’t you go to an art academy?”

“This is why I didn’t took Science Curriculum!”

Kim Soo-ryeon gritted her teeth at her highly aggressive sister.
