NU'ESTAR: Light and Shadow
Episode 1
I am an ordinary, ordinary high school student in South Korea.
Name? I don't think I need to know.
Everyone calls me class president.
I've been the class president for two years now, a job I hate because I'm pushed around by the kids.
황민현
Hey class president, are you guys going home after you finish?
This is my childhood friend Hwang Min-hyun.
It's already been 10 years since I've known him.
This kid is also incredibly good at studying, so he's always the subject of my comparison.
나
Mom is at home, don't come.
황민현
Ah, why, why, why, why-!
황민현
Do you want to go out and play, huh?
나
Yeah, but my mom said that the cleaning, laundry, and dishes are all piled up.
Since their families and our families know each other well, it is polite to help them with housework.
황민현
Hey, you know I like cleaning.
Oh, I forgot that the opponent was Hwang Min-hyun.
나
Yeah, come..
황민현
Oh yeah-!
I don't know why he's been chasing after me since he was little.
나
Oh my god, it's raining.
황민현
Why? Don't you have an umbrella?
Hwang Min-hyun put his arm around my shoulder and opened his umbrella.
나
Oh, are you crazy? I have an umbrella.
He's handsome, he studies well, and he's tall.
I hurried my steps, afraid that I would be compared to Hwang Min-hyun, who has everything, and me, who is ordinary.
황민현
Hey, let's go together!
뉴스 앵커
Movement has been detected on the recently discovered planet NU'ESTAR.
When I came home after bickering with Hwang Min-hyun, only the TV was on and no one was there.
황민현
What, you said you have a mom?
나
I told you not to come, okay?
황민현
But why is the TV on even though no one is there?
나
I don't know. Hey, I'm going to change clothes.
황민현
Should we change together?
나
Are you crazy?
Hwang Min-hyun, he's even good at picking up women.
There must be over a hundred girls in the whole school that he made cry.
I came into my room to change out of my damp uniform,
I could feel the presence of people.
I didn't call Hwang Min-hyun just to protect my pride.
If you call him here, he'll probably tease you for a month and call you a coward.
나
...Who's there?
I called, but there was no answer.
나
Who are you..?
I called once more, but there was still no response.
In the end, I decided to check it out myself.
I went to where the sound was coming from and it was a small space between the closet and the bed.
There was something there that was simply unbelievable.
최민기
...are you the owner of this house?
Black hair, thick double eyelids, smooth skin, plump lips.
A rare and outstanding beauty.
At that moment, the science teacher's words flashed through my mind.
과학 선생님
Don't you know that you're NU'EST?
황민현
What is that?
과학 선생님
There's a newly discovered planet, Nuista.
과학 선생님
The kids living there are so dangerous.
과학 선생님
She is very pretty with black hair.
과학 선생님
They say that they look exactly like humans, making it difficult to tell them apart. They also say that they can speak Korean.
과학 선생님
It's extremely dangerous, so report it to the police immediately.
My intuition told me.
'Ah, it's NU'EST.'
Episode 1 finished.
Thank you so much to 'EXO Baragi Tiger' for giving me such a pretty title :-)
