I closed my eyes and when I opened them, it was BTS before their debut!?

김연

Phew....

김연

I’ll get straight to the point

방탄 image

방탄

Yes

김연

You’re officially set for debut!

김석진 image

김석진

Gasp, really?

김연

Yep yep, it’s really been decided!

민윤기 image

민윤기

Then when are we debuting?

김연

June 13, 2013!

박지민 image

박지민

Uh.... then... since it’s November now....

박지민 image

박지민

Ugh... then that means about 7 months left

김연

Yeah, that’s right

전정국 image

전정국

Um, then we’d better work hard for the next 7 months

김연

Yeah, practice steadily and take it easy

민윤기 image

민윤기

Then Manager, has our debut song been decided too?

김연

Yeah, it’s alr....

That’s when the phone rings

김연

Huh? It’s PD Bang?

김태형 image

김태형

PD Bang?

김연

Yeah, what could it be?

Yeon answers the phone

김연

Yes, hello?

방pd

Yeoni?

김연

Yes, PD

방pd

Can you come to the office for a moment?

김연

Huh? Me alone?

방pd

No, with the members

김연

Ah, yes. Understood

The call ends

정호석 image

정호석

Manager, what did PD Bang say?

김연

He said to come to the office

김석진 image

김석진

Us too?

김연

Yeah, all together

전정국 image

전정국

Tsk, what’s going on??

김연

Well, I guess we should go and see?

Knock knock

방pd

Come in

After going inside

방pd

Everyone, have a seat

김연

Yes..

방pd

Ahem... the reason I called you all here is

방pd

to bring in a new member

김연

(springing to his feet) Bring in a new member?

김석진 image

김석진

We’re getting a new member?

김연

(Sigh... if we bring in a new member, history changes)

김연

I’m absolutely against bringing in a new member, and when you made BTS, you said there’d be 7 members!

방pd

Why? I’m saying I’m bringing in a new member—what, can’t I?

김연

(sweeping his hair back) PD Bang, our debut date is already set and we even have a debut song

전정국 image

전정국

(whispering) Seokjin-hyung, the manager’s really pissed....

김석진 image

김석진

(whispering) Yeah... it’s the first time I’ve ever seen the manager this pissed....

민윤기 image

민윤기

PD Bang, I’m against it too

방pd

Why?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Like the manager said, our debut isn’t far off and our debut song is already decided

민윤기 image

민윤기

And we don’t even have enough time to get close to each other

민윤기 image

민윤기

And the maknae Jungkook is really shy around strangers too—what do you mean, bringing in a new member?

방pd

I’ve already signed a contract. He’s on the way

김연

PD Bang?!!! (springing up)

방pd

Why, got a problem with it?

김연

Hah.. it’s not that I have a pro..

방pd

What else would that be if not a problem?

김연

Ha... I’ll be taking my leave

방pd

Kim Yeon?!!! Where do you think you’re going? I’m not finished yet?!!

김남준 image

김남준

...PD, we’ll be taking our leave too

정호석 image

정호석

The mood is...

민윤기 image

민윤기

(nudging Hoseok in the side) Hoseok

정호석 image

정호석

(startled)

방pd

Fine, then go on out

김석진 image

김석진

Yes... thank you for your hard work....

김연

and sit on the swing

김연

.......

김연

Sigh....

김연

Really, if...

김연

we debut after bringing in a new member.....

the Hwayang Yeonhwa storyline and the award we got will disappear too....

Meanwhile, the members’ situation

김석진 image

김석진

Manager!!! Where are you!!!

민윤기 image

민윤기

Ha.. seriously, where is Manager?

전정국 image

전정국

Oh? Hyungs

정호석 image

정호석

Yeah, what is it, Jungkook?

전정국 image

전정국

He’s over there, isn’t he?

김석진 image

김석진

Oh, he is?

김석진 image

김석진

Manager?!!

김연

(jumping in surprise) Huh? Seokjin, what is it?

김태형 image

김태형

Manager, we’ve been looking for you forever!

전정국 image

전정국

We thought you’d disappeared and got scared!

김연

(kekekeke Jungkook is cute) I’m not disappearing anywhere

민윤기 image

민윤기

Manager, what are you going to do about the new member?

김연

I’ll try to handle it myself

민윤기 image

민윤기

Okay...

김석진 image
