You're just a friend
17. Pretend to be dating



김채린
With you?


이지훈
Naji, are you with these guys?

Jihoon looked at Chae-rin as if he found her pitiful, and Chae-rin touched her head as if embarrassed.



권순영
Oh my, love outside!^^


이지훈
This is our house.

When Soonyoung said, "Oh, that's right!" the children looked at her and sighed.



전원우
Let's go out.


문준휘
Okay, then. I think we should go out.


김채린
Huh? Hey, we need to plan the operation together!

As the children were about to leave, Chaerin spoke in a slightly louder voice.


이지훈
Right, we need to plan the operation together.



문준휘
...Okay, I understand. If the operation is successful, shoot.


이지훈
With a gun?

When Jihoon snickered, Soonyoung said, "You crazy bird."



이지훈
I'm just kidding, seriously, no no.


전원우
This joke is so bloody scary.


김채린
After a long time, I agree with Jeon Won-woo.


이지훈
What are you talking about?



권순영
Okay, focus. Aren't you going to plan a strategy?

Everyone looked at Sunyoung at her words.


권순영
Um... First of all, let's upload it to Pe×, I'm in a relationship.


김채린
And send it to Daejeon.



이지훈
Should I send it?

In response to Jihoon's words, Wonwoo asked, "In what way?"


이지훈
Um...for example.

"Kim Chae-rin, don't talk nonsense since you're dating me. No, anonymous."


이지훈
Like this?



전원우
Pretty good, huh?

Everyone nodded as if agreeing with Wonwoo's words.


권순영
Then let's do that, send it right now!


이지훈
okay.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm dating Kim Chae-rin, anonymous."


이지훈
I sent it.



문준휘
Soon, you will receive a response.


전원우
If there is no response, it is a legend.

The children laughed at Wonwoo's words.


권순영
He's a total legend.

"Tiring"

"Tiring"

"Tiring"

However, contrary to Wonwoo's words, the response was heated. People tagged Jihoon and Chaerin and left comments, and notifications came in almost every second.

아이들
@Kim Chae-rim Are you crazy???// Crazy and Soltal?// They secretly suit each other// Chch @Lee Ji-hoon


김채린
The response is better than expected?



이지훈
No, we're not celebrities... why is the reaction like this?

Some of the comments contained profanity. But the kids didn't care, because this relationship wasn't real anyway.


전원우
So, are we going to start pretending to date tomorrow?


김채린
Since I already uploaded it, I guess I should do that.


김채린
How many days do you want to do it?

Chaerin's question was answered by Soonyoung, Junhwi, and Wonwoo, not Jihoon.



권순영
Honestly, let's go over 100 days.


문준휘
How about 300 days?


전원우
Hey, it's going to take 500 days.

Jihoon sighed at the sight of the three.



이지훈
We'll decide.


권순영
Tch.


전원우
it's a shame.



문준휘
How many days are you going to do this?


김채린
Hmm...526 days?


이지훈
It's okay, if we break up on an anniversary like this, people might get suspicious, right?



전원우
That could be the case.

But then, Jun-Hwi seemed to realize something and said.


문준휘
Hey, then you guys have to do it for over a year.


김채린
Wow, I see. If you look at it by year, that's true.



이지훈
Well, how about 265 days?


김채린
okay.

So, after the operation meeting, the children shouted "Fighting!!"

That's how Chae-rin and Ji-hoon's fake relationship began.



겨우
Hehehe
