Idol of the Heavenly One - Chapter 33.1
Hyun-jun did not debut with DIAI, but with another group called Nest.
Does this mean that what is bound to happen will happen no matter what?
If that is the case, then even though the police were deployed today, the fire will still break out. And if that is true…
“……”
In the end, that fan will still die.
The cold, hardened sense of reality pierced into my chest.
If it was a tragedy already set in my past life, maybe no matter how much I struggle, I cannot stop it.
“YEARZ, let’s go get ready!”
The corridor behind the stage was as busy as always. Staff exchanging short words, the sound of walkie-talkies, the mix of footsteps all tangled together in the air. But none of it properly reached my ears. Amid the noise, I held on to a single thought.
What is bound to happen will happen.
And the fan’s death.
I felt as if the tips of my fingers were freezing. It was a tragedy I had already confirmed in my past life. If it was an accident fated to happen, then no matter what I did, would that day always end the same way?
“Myeong-hyeon, let me put on the chain.”
The coordi-noona draped a chain over my shoulder. The cold touch of the metal brushing against my skin jolted me back for a moment. In the mirror was me. A sparkling pink stage outfit, hair neatly styled, a face fully prepared to stand in the lights of the stage. But the eyes of that face were empty.
“Myeong-hyeon hyung! Relax!”
Maybe he thought I had stiffened up from nerves. Kwon Ji-hak patted me on the shoulder from the side.
“Hey, look at Ji Myeong-hyeon. Completely stiff. We should take a picture.”
“For real?”
“Pfft, that’s funny.”
Hearing Kwon Ji-hak, the other members looked at me and chuckled, playfully teasing me. It seemed they were trying to ease my nerves.
“……”
But the more they did, the heavier my heart felt. The members cherished our fans as much as I did. They thought of them preciously, going on our communication app every day to leave posts and responding to fans’ posts with comments.
If one of those fans died today, the members could feel an even deeper despair than me.
Because…
They were different from me. I only accepted the offer because it came to me, thinking lightly that I would live better if I took it. But the members were not like that. They came searching for that love themselves, because they wanted to receive it.
A sickening wave of nausea surged up inside me.
My legs trembled, and my heart, pounding with fear, beat so violently that my temples hurt. A sharp ringing pierced my ears. I wanted to collapse right there, cover my ears, and escape from the crushing sense of helplessness bearing down on me.
“I… I…”
My trembling even blocked my words, but I felt like I had to say it. That I could not go up on stage like this. That if I did, I would not be able to do anything—
“Ji Myeong-hyeon.”
At that moment, I felt a warm hand on my back, and Baek Jae-heon’s voice came from right behind me.
“Just focus on the stage.”
“……”
“It will be fine.”
His low voice, calming and reassuring me, gradually softened the ringing in my ears.
“Let’s go.”
And with his firm push, my legs, which had been frozen to the ground as if rooted, were able to step forward.

I am seriously slapping my own cheek for not going to AAM after seeing the boys on the red carpet. Look at these kids in those white, luxurious tweeds. Absolutely insane. They are so beautiful that I spun my head in a double lock spin. Please, do not do this to me, boys… Are you trying to kill someone by being this cute, this handsome, this pretty, and everything at once? Especially Baek Jae-heon, look at this selfish baby. How can this oppa be nineteen years old? His aura, his physique, everything about him screams twenty-eight. Please let me call you Jae-heon oppa. Why is he nine years younger than me? Stop lying. Legalize this, please, I am begging you.
