Delusional Circuit of Megalomania
The Boy Next Door, Kim Un-hak
“Are you going to work now?”
김이현
…uh?
김이현
Unhak?
김운학
lol
It was Kim Woon-hak standing in front of the front door with a smile on his face.
김이현
What about school?
김이현
Aren't you late?
김운학
There's still a little left
김이현
Don't you have to start school at 8?
김이현
It was 3 minutes ago now
김운학
Hey, it'll take 3 minutes if you run~
김이현
…;;
Today, as always, I saw Kim Un-hak's face first thing in the morning.
How many weeks has this been going on?
I wonder if I'm even going to school properly
The problem was that we encountered it too often.
Even if they are next door neighbors.
김운학
Sister, then I'll go!!
김운학
Good luck at work today!! (Bboongbangbang)
Every time Kim Un-hak said his morning greeting, he was busy running down the apartment hallway.
Kim Woon-hak waves his hand at me without a second thought. His magpie-like hair is a bonus.
김이현
… Huh,,
김이현
How do you like that horn?
I looked at Kim Un-hak and touched my forehead.
Thump thump…
김이현
…
Haa, it's almost lunchtime.
I have to organize and send the data by then.
Oh, please
I wish I didn't have to work overtime today...;;
My name is Kim Lee-hyun, 26 years old.
As you can see, he is an ordinary office worker.
Tiring.-
Kim Un-hak | What are you doing?
Kim Un-hak's name appeared at the bottom of the monitor screen.
김이현
…under?
김이현
Does this kid have time to send KakaoTalk messages at school?
I kept my mouth shut and tapped away at the keyboard.
Me| I'm working^^
I'll just send a smiley face emoticon and stop it.
I thought so.
But the three letters of Kim Un-hak's name appear at the bottom of the monitor screen without anyone noticing.
Kim Woon-hak | It's almost lunchtime!! Today's lunch is stir-fried pork!! Wow, I'm hungry already.
김이현
…
Seeing him rambling on about school lunches, something he wasn't even interested in, he looked like a high school student.
김이현
Unhak... It's almost lunchtime for you too.
김이현
If I finish this, I won't have to work overtime today...
김이현
It’s been years since I’ve seen a school lunch menu…
I muttered to myself in front of the monitor like that.
I was always worried about Kim Un-hak, who kept babbling useless words.
Every time that happened, Kim Un-hak had a solution.
Ring ring ring...
김운학
Hello..? Sister?;; (quietly)
김이현
Unhak, aren't you in class?
김운학
..Uh, yeah.. I'm in class (whispering)
김운학
Why are you calling...
“Kim Woon-hak, who calls during class?”
김운학
!!
김운학
Oh, teacher, that's...!
김운학
I'm sorry, sister. I think I have to hang up.
Stop.
The call ended with Kim Woon-hak's voice hanging up in a hurry, followed by an unfamiliar voice directed at him.
김이현
Looks like my phone got stolen.
If that's the case, Kim Woon-hak didn't contact me until I left work today. Perhaps the teacher took his phone away.
I'm a little sorry, but I can't let this get in the way of your work...
I hate working overtime.
…
..
.
"Ha, at least I avoided overtime work..-"
김이현
What should I eat for dinner tonight?
김이현
My fridge must be empty right now.
Beep beep beep.-
Clank.-
김이현
I'm back..
김운학
Oh! Are you coming now??
When I opened the front door, the first thing that greeted me was Kim Un-hak's face.
김이현
What, when...
김이현
No, how did you get in?
김동현
Oh, do you want to eat too, sister?
김동현
Unhak's mother made side dishes for him.
At that moment, Kim Dong-hyun, who was sitting at the table, peeked his face out and said.
Kim Dong-hyun is my younger brother, five years younger than me.
Now I'm a college student who moved out of my parents' house and settled down in my own studio apartment...
김이현
..then,,
김운학
Yes, Mom said she'd bring side dishes for my older sister and brother~
김이현
Oh, thank you..
Every now and then, like today, Unhak's mother would make him some side dishes. Her mother's concern was that he might eat them all by himself.
I think it's because we've known each other since we were young, but he seems to take special care of me.
김운학
Sister, you didn't eat, right?
김이현
Oh, yeah
김운학
Then let's eat together! Haha
Unhak pushed me from behind and led me to the table.
김이현
Uh, wash your hands-
…
..
.
“Oh…, delicious.”
김운학
It's my mom's cooking~
Unhak beat his chest as if boasting.
김이현
Tell your mother thank you
김운학
Yes~
김이현
…
김이현
Still, Unhak is better than a college student who stays stuck at his older sister's house.
김이현
Be sure to bring side dishes too~ (Park Park)
I patted Kim Un-hak on the head as if I was impressed.
김운학
lol..
Kim Woon-hak smiled bashfully as if he was okay with it.
김동현
…are you talking about me, the college student stuck at home?
김이현
So where are the college students here?
김이현
He (Kim Un-hak) is a high school student, and I'm a working adult.
김이현
Looking at it this way, there are people of all ages?
김동현
…
김동현
Sister, are you really upset about me?
김이현
huh
김동현
Yeah..
Kim Dong-hyun was a merciless person to his older sister.
김동현
Unhak, I only have you in this corner of the house.
김운학
yes..?
Kim Dong-hyun grabbed Kim Woon-hak and hung on.
김동현
You're on my side, right?
김운학
..to?
김동현
no?
김운학
… Yes, that’s right..~!
김동현
Yeah, I love Kim Woon-hak.
김동현
Don't you have a Kim Un-hak like this? Aren't you jealous?
Kim Dong-hyun sat down next to Kim Woon-hak and muttered with increasingly childish words.
김이현
…;;
김이현
Is that a college student?
김이현
How can someone be more immature than a high school student?
김동현
…
김운학
Aight, Donghyun hyung is going to get upset..;; (whispering)
김이현
… (sigh)
김운학
Oh, right
김이현
?
김운학
Why did you call today?
김이현
phone call?
김이현
ah..
김이현
Just~^^
김운학
…yes?
김운학
no,,
김운학
I really got my phone stolen by the teacher back then..!!
김이현
Why are you on your phone during class?
김운학
No, that..
Kim Un-hak was a man who felt wronged but had nothing to say.
김운학
Ah, sister... You did that on purpose, right..?
김이현
^^
김운학
My phone has been confiscated three times this week…
김이현
Oh, is that so? lol
김운학
Ah..sister;;..
김이현
You're really funny too
김이현
Just put your phone on silent mode lol
김이현
How come it happens every day? lol
김운학
If I put it on silent, I won't be able to answer your calls.
김이현
huh..?
김운학
From now on, I'll only contact you during breaks.
김운학
I can't let my phone be taken away again...
김이현
Oh my... I should think about not using my phone at school...
김이현
Don't you carry your phone these days?
김운학
You're not walking...?
김이현
Oh really?
김이현
The world has really become a better place..
김동현
I wonder if my older sister is an old person
김이현
hey.
김동현
… (crouching)
김운학
…lol
김이현
Sigh, I don't know when I got so old.
김동현
Unhak is already in his third year of high school
김운학
lol..
김이현
Well, I've been watching him since he was a nose poker.
김운학
Ah..sister,,; what is a nose poker..
김이현
Why is that right? I'm 7 years old and haven't even started elementary school~
The first time I saw Kim Un-hak was when I was in the first year of middle school.
It's already been 12 years since we first met.
김이현
I remember Unhak when he was 7 years old
김운학
?
김이현
When I first saw Unhak, he was really a kid.
김운학
ah..;
김이현
Did you know that Unhak cried the first time he saw me?
김운학
..me?
김동현
Oh, I remember
김동현
When adults tease Unhak, they say to his older sister, "That older sister is Unhak's wife~"
김동현
It was like this, but I didn't know what the meaning of the word "saeksi" was, and when the adults joked around saying something like "Woonhak, do you want to marry Hyun-i?", I cried as soon as I saw her face.
김이현
Yes, at that time I was shedding tears and snot haha
김운학
..No, me??
김운학
Really??
김동현
I don't remember him lol
김이현
Huh,, it's really sad?
김이현
Unhak, did you hate marrying your older sister so much that you cried? ㅠㅠ
김운학
..oh, no;
김운학
I said I don't remember that time..;; I was only 7 years old!!
김동현
Do you want to be like your older sister? Haha
김동현
Do you want to marry Kim Lee-hyun, who is 7 years older than you?
김이현
… Are you kidding me about my age?^^
김이현
But, that's true
김동현
That's true
김이현
lol
김이현
Ah, I'll try to live until Unhak gets married.
김동현
Stay healthy, sister.
김운학
… Oh really,,
김이현
lol
김동현
lol
Kim Un-hak was a brother and sister who enjoyed teasing each other.
김운학
I'm going now
김동현
already?
김운학
I feel like I'm going to be treated like a baby again if I stay here.
김이현
lol
김운학
Anyway, I'll go
김운학
see you tomorrow
Kim Un-hak said that and returned home.
김동현
tomorrow?
김동현
Tomorrow is the weekend
김이현
There's Kim Woon-hak's private tutoring.
김동현
Ah~
김이현
… Hey, you should know that you’re a private tutor
김동현
haha.
김이현
…
I have a bad feeling about this.
It was supposed to be a peaceful weekend holiday.
Knock knock.-
김운학
Sister, I don't know this...
It was Kim Un-hak who opened the door and came in, breaking my precious holiday.
김이현
…What about Kim Dong-hyun?
김운학
My brother, I missed the tutoring..
김이현
also?
김운학
Nod)
김이현
Are you a teacher who has left your sense of responsibility behind?
김이현
Come here and sit down
김운학
Yes~
Kim Un-hak walked quickly and sat down at the desk.
It was a scene I had already become accustomed to.
Kim Dong-hyun's commitment to tutoring Kim Woon-hak every weekend was abandoned to me after only a few months.
The guy who was supposed to tutor me was playing a game with me and fell asleep while solving a problem.
In the end, Kim Dong-hyun's work was passed on to me.
Tutoring students was something I was sick of doing in college, so who would have thought I would be able to do it even after becoming a company employee?
…
Square, square...-
김이현
If there's anything else you don't know, ask.
Although he said that, he is paying close attention to Kim Un-hak's tutoring.
I guess it was because I learned from Kim Dong-hyun's college tutoring not only during my college days but also at home.
I'm scared of how used I am.
김운학
Sister
김이현
Huh? What are you stuck on?
김운학
Oh, that's not it...
김이현
?
김운학
Can I go to that university..?
김이현
Yeah? Then~ If you work hard.
김운학
Then can I go to Korea University too?
김이현
Why are you my junior? lol
김운학
…yes (hwaak)
Kim Un-hak blushed.
김이현
Hmm..~
김운학
No..?
김이현
Well, it's the same for Kim Dong-hyun, who didn't study at all, because I sent him to college.
김이현
If you work hard, you might be able to do it too~? ㅋㅋ
김운학
..!
김운학
Really?
김운학
Can I really go to Korea University??
김이현
Yeah~
김이현
So work hard~
김운학
… Hehe, I get it
김운학
I will really work hard!!
김이현
Yeah yeah
김운학
So, sister.
Kim Woon-hak's face suddenly became serious.
김이현
huh?
김운학
If I go to Korea University, please grant me one wish.
김이현
wish?
김운학
…yes
김이현
What is it?
김운학
…Can I tell you about that then?
김이현
Yeah, what~
김이현
If only I could hear it...
김운학
There is no softness (wide open)
As soon as I finished speaking, Kim Woon-hak's face brightened and he gave me a little finger.
김이현
What the heck, you even walked with your finger...lol
김이현
What on earth do you wish for?
김운학
..it's a secret
…
