Episode 71: An Adult's Circumstances (1)

Lectures and questions that follow without hesitation.

After changing the writing and broadcasting schedule several times a week, the day to stand on the broadcasting station stage is fast approaching.

"ruler! Go shoot! Standby! 5! 4!···"

As the PD started counting, the heat around them grew even hotter.

The room temperature, which was already hot due to the heat of the lighting, rises sharply.

Broadcasting started.

* * *.

In the center of hundreds of gazes, a different feeling from the white intellectual.

I couldn't hide my trembling heart.

Soon, Junyoung swallowed a single saliva and opened his mouth.

"Everyone."

Then the people on the set looked at Junyoung.

From nearby panels to distant steps.

Everyone was concentrating on Junyoung's mouth.

Joon-young said with a force on the tip of his tongue.

“What does ‘adult’ mean?”

OK.

“He’s over twenty!”

“A person who has the right to vote.”

“People who came out with a certificate.”

“Aminjeung comes out when you are in high school?”

"is it?"

The idols who were sitting in the front row quickly raised their hands and said.

They were members of a new female idol group called 'Atlantica'.

As if their purpose was to get as many cameras as possible, they energetically answered the light questions posed by Junyoung.

One of the members was caught muttering with a blank expression on the microphone.

“...it must be ‘experience’...”

!?

In an instant, everyone on the set was astonished.

The voice was so low that I couldn't hear it well, but the problem was that the microphone was turned on.

A member of the 4th dimension, ‘Yuna’, was born in Japan, so there was a lot of talk about being extremely open-minded in many ways...

The PD put his hand on his face.

Broadcast accident-level message.

In fact, if it was a general variety show, it might have been fine.

This is definitely a kind of lecture program.

If it's a recorded broadcast, a graphic effect of a stone falling over your head or a skull X100! The subtitles, and the beeping sound effect, can be a bit suffocating.

This is a live broadcast!

'It's ruined from the start! What!?’

So when the PD is in a panic.

Jun-young pretended not to be embarrassed, she asked.

“Experience? What do you mean?”

Then Yuna, who is known for her 4th dimension, answered in slurred Korean.

“No, it’s not Kyung Heo-mi, it’s gaekko… So, we have to have a ‘controversial argument’…”Fortunately, it seems that what she said was ‘marriage’.

It happened because I was not used to Korean yet.

“…Usually it is said that you have to compete with each other to become an Ornn. So, arguing, oh, oh, oh! Don’t you have to become a parent to become an Ornn?”

It was embarrassing, but Yuna spoke confidently.

Then a sigh of relief could be heard around.

whatever anyway

Thanks to this, the atmosphere of the filming site, which was a bit dim, was vividly revived.

The situation might have caused enough controversy depending on what happened after that.

However, Yuna's soft and charming words made the panelists who listened to her smile.

In addition, the hard atmosphere that could have been seen as dogmatic has become quite soft to the level of entertainment.

Actors and married celebrities who appear to be quite old smiled and nodded their heads.

Junyoung looked at them and slowly opened his mouth.

"Yes. You guys at Atlantica gave a variety of answers, what do other people think? Can you tell me something, handsome actor Kim Joong-sang?”

When Jun-young pointed out one of the people who were smiling happily, people's eyes focused on him.

It was Kim Jung-sang, a middle-aged actor who usually plays serious and charismatic roles.

He pretended to be a little flustered at Jun-young's sudden name, then opened his mouth with a nice smile.

"well. Um, come to think of it, I've never thought about it, but a man must go to the military..."

It was an unexpectedly unpredictable answer.

The much-anticipated Atlantica members expressed their disappointment.

Then, slightly embarrassed, Kim Jung-sang changed his words.

"...just kidding, shouldn't you be an adult when you become financially independent? Until then, I'm just a kid."

As he spoke, the faces of the Atlantica members began to return to their original state.

Others also nodded their heads at Kim Jung-sang's second remark, and looked forward to what Jun-young would say.

Junyoung said as he made eye contact with them.

"Yes. As actor Kim Jung-sang said, in a capitalist society, that is also one of the requirements of being an adult. If you look at it that way, these days, you can't help but be a child until you reach the age of 30. Student loans, loans, and wedding expenses . . . I am still a child.”

Then, Kim Joong-sang smiled with a shy expression.

Joon-young immediately stretched out his arms toward the audience.

“Now, everyone, do you know where the word ‘adult’ comes from?”

Then people's faces turned to questionable.

Most of them used the word adult a lot, but they didn't seem to think where the word came from.

Joon-young said with a slight smile.

"Generally, the word 'adult' is a word formed by combining the verb 'adult' and the ancient word for person, and the noun 'I'."

Then he slowly stepped towards the audience.

“So, in a nutshell”

Take a look around the audience.

“It means ‘one who can grow up’ or ‘already an adult’.”

He finished speaking.

Then people nodded their heads and looked at them with interest.

Junyoung looked around the Atlantica members who were sitting in the front seat, looking for someone who could ask a question.

Then, an idol named 'Ji-young', who looks the most affectionate among them, caught Jun-young's eyes.

“Ji-Young, then I will give you a simple question. So what does the word ‘older’ mean?”

Jun-young looked at her Ji-young and asked a question.

Then she began to ponder with her slightly bewildered expression.

Her closed mouth opened slowly.

"lull? Why do babies say they are adults when they cry? Well, then, is an adult a comforter?”

It was a surprisingly plausible interpretation.

But it wasn't the answer he wanted.

“Obviously, that’s what it means. That's a very interesting interpretation. However, being an adult has a slightly different meaning from that.”

Junyoung shook his head and said.

He then looked behind him and stretched out his arm.

Then she saw a scene on the screen of two men and women kissing.

“Adult is a word that means ‘through physical affection between a man and a woman.’”

When Junyoung spoke, people showed various reactions.

Female idols usually look shy.

The panelists, who were quite old, were smiling deeply regardless of gender.

Joon-young continued her words.

She said, “It’s a part that shows up well in Seodongyo and Man Jeon-chun’s special story. Why is it that in middle school and high school, the teachers bluntly describe it as 'get married' or 'get into a marriage relationship'. In fact, it's a pretty erotic expression. I was surprised to learn that Yuna-san knew what she was talking about earlier. ‘Ah, I got spoiled for lectures, should I go home?’

OK.

Atlantica members including Yuna explode.

at that time.

gulp.

Kim Jung-sang swallowed.

Each panel was equipped with a microphone, so even a small sound could be heard very loudly.

People's smiling eyes turned to Kim Joong-sang.

Then Kim Jung-sang shook his head with a bewildered expression.

“Oh, hey! I keep getting a sore throat…”

.

When I saw him on the air, I thought he was a very charismatic person, but he was unexpectedly a man of many gaps.

Jun-young hurriedly opened her mouth for Kim Jung-sang, who is being bombarded with people's eyes.

“Now then, what kind of being is an ‘adult’?”

Then, the gaze focused on Kim Jung-sang turned to Joon-young.

Kim Joong-sang sighed as if he was happy.

“Anyone you can relate to?”

someone said

A sneak peek revealed that it was actress Kim Hee-soo in her 20th year of debut.

She could have been an ordinary horse if she was ordinary.

Joon-young gives a little bit of flair.

“Does this sound a bit dangerous?”

“Hmm, this is the line I made in this historical drama movie. It was the line when seducing the king.”

“Somehow, it was released next month, wasn’t it? I will definitely go see it.”

When Jun-young smiled, Kim Hee-soo smiled brightly.

It seems that the feeling of the PPL, which was not in the script, was greatly improved.

Meanwhile, Jun-young went back to lecture.

“…that’s right, someone you can relate to. A person who can produce offspring through him. People who can form a family and take responsibility are called adults. So······."

Junyoung looked around the panels once and for all.

“If you go back to the old days, I and many of you here can also say ‘I am not an adult’. Oh, of course, except for a few.”

But then.

Perhaps he liked Jun-young's reaction, Kim Hee-soo said with a playful smile.“What about people who have been there once?”

If she isn't the originally set amount, she's the one who doesn't do more than that.

It could be said that she took a fairly unusual approach.

'It's an honor for me if a top star helps me.'

Joon-young opened his mouth with a smile on his face.

“A person like that should be considered an adult first. Anyway, as you can see from the word ‘adult’, it can be seen that our ancestors placed great importance on forming a family.”

“In the old days, how important it was for our ancestors to establish a family, and we even created a way to distinguish between those who had a family and those who didn’t. Anyone know? Those of you who often act in historical dramas will be familiar with it, right?”

Then Kim Joong-sang whispered to him.

"topknot?"

As he nodded his head, he seemed confident in his answer.

“Yes, it is. Our ancestors distinguished between marital status by Sangtu and Daenggi. So, even if you were 10 years old, if you were married, you would be treated like an adult by wearing your traditional clothes. Of course, in some cases, there were cases of foreign investment, but I was not treated properly.”

Jun-young took her hand and walked towards the screen again.

“That’s why in the past, becoming an adult meant more than it is now. I could only be treated like an adult after I had formed a family.”

Then she stood by the screen and continued her speech.

“Now, so far, we have been looking into the etymology of adult and what our ancestors thought of adult. So let me ask you a question here.”

Jun-young opened her index finger and focused people's attention.

“What was the life of an ‘adult’ as our ancestors thought?

“·················ogue.”

Soon, a picture appeared on the screen, a picture of a middle-aged man with a topknot.

“Here is a man.”

Junyoung opened his mouth as if introducing a movie.

“Family is not important to him. He is the only person he cares about most and loves the money to support him and his life.”

"even."

“He is a mockery of the priest who tries to wake him up by harassing his family for the money, and bullying his neighbor.”

“But one day he experiences a strange thing.”

Jun-young walked slowly through the lecture hall and stopped right in the center of the lecture hall.

"as soon as."

After Joon-young stopped breathing for a moment, the lecture hall became quiet as if there was no one there.

“Someone who looks just like him started pretending to be himself in his own house.”

After Junyoung's words were finished, some panelists and audience members exclaimed.

"Yes. By this time, would you have noticed? The protagonist of the story I am talking about is Ongojip. Today, I'm going to try to unravel this onggojip in a fun way with a little twist from a modern perspective."

Joon-young looked at the audience with a mischievous smile.

Girl groups, actresses, and all other celebrities who have their eyes twinkling.

And beyond the sunny field where they are, all the broadcasters in the low shade are watching me.

The flow felt is unusual. In particular, the PD is already sending unconditional affection towards me.

‘If you do this well, you can drive a stake, right?’

A quick calculation was going on in my head right now.

The opportunity cost of dropping a lecture during the recording time.

Performance fee and image rise.

additional effects resulting therefrom.

Needless to say what's important

Needless to say Isn't this broadcast even over-the-air?

“Now, shall we begin in earnest?”

With cheers from the girl groups who seemed to have already become fans, Junyoung was taking the first step towards broadcasting.
