The number one playboy on the Peninsula!

Chapter 357 premieres: He enjoys killing in his dreams!
"You've disappointed me so much!!!"

As evening fell, TWICE finished their day's work. Summoned by Little Monster Tofu, the somewhat unstable "quadrilateral" of the "Medical Alliance" gathered at the dormitory of the Food Team line!
Kim Da-hyun stood on the sofa, watching Tzuyu's two most beloved dogs licking her soft white toes. She was so angry that she kicked Kaya and Butter aside.

This action made Chou Tzu-yu's face turn ashen, but she couldn't say anything.

She had no choice but to adjust the angle of the dark face mask on her face and asked in a muffled voice, "What's wrong, Dahyun?"

Mina, upon hearing this, also looked curiously at the spy that Sung-chan had planted in TWICE! Her small hands kept moving, holding a small bottle of lotion, pouring it into her palm twice, and then slapping it on her face with her fair hands. Her bare face pursed her lips: "Yeah, what's wrong with Sung-chan? Tell me, Dahyun?"

"Say it quickly!"

Son Chae-young is also an impatient person. She was sitting with her legs crossed, idly browsing "battle outfits" and various colored stockings on a shopping app.

Yesterday, my boyfriend said he wanted to try red and purple stockings...

He likes it, so let's satisfy him!
"Hey!"

Seeing the clueless expressions on the faces of the three people in front of her, clearly not taking today's meeting seriously, Kim Da-hyun felt a surge of anger rising within her!

If Tzuyu hadn't been there, she would have grabbed Chaeyoung by the ears and Mina by the collar and asked them: "How can you be such a doting father?"

Our handsome guy is already so emotional, yet nobody seems to care?
In the past, whenever you had a headache or fever, our great leader would always worry about you terribly...

"Chaeyoung! I'm so disappointed in you!"

"And Unnie..." Tofu mumbled for a moment, then turned to look seriously at Mina. "Beauty my ass! I'm talking! What are you doing with that toner 'slap slap slap'? Weren't you the most attentive member of the 'Medical Alliance' all along?"
"Especially you—Tzuyu!!!"

Kim Da-hyun criticized everyone in a serious and stern tone, which made Son Chae-young and the other two feel very uncomfortable. They all stopped what they were doing and looked at Tofu seriously. What was she doing?
It's an act of rebellion against the Heavenly Gang!

"...What's wrong with me?"

Chou Tzu-yu asked innocently, but her downturned lips revealed her displeasure!
"Dahyun, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Why are you talking about us in such a roundabout way..." Son Chaeyoung wrinkled her small nose, feeling that her good friend was acting a little strangely today!

We've already made up, haven't we—you little [traitor to South Korea]?
"What happened? Tell me slowly, Dahyun."

Mina gently raised her hand and patted the youngest member's shoulder.

Since the "Medical Integrity Alliance" was established, this youngest member has been the most lazy. What's wrong with him today? Has he changed his ways...?

Kim Da-hyun rolled her eyes, staring at the members in front of her... still being stubborn!
quibble!

I'm so angry...

Damn it... How are we supposed to protect General Marshal with you bunch of worms?
They all say they like Oppa all the time and want what's best for him, but what happens in the end?

Protecting Oppa's smile is our inescapable duty!

"...Haven't you noticed that Oppa's condition is getting worse?!"

Kim Da-hyun said coldly and angrily, "How come I, who used to be such a handsome and carefree guy who loved to laugh, became melancholy after associating with you bunch of worms?"

So much so that when Mina, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu heard this, their eyes were immediately drawn to the little monster, her face contorted with anger and her shoulders trembling!
Little Strange Tofu~ She's someone who occasionally goes crazy!
"How to say?"

"I think Makoto has been doing much better lately. After all, he's mostly finished dealing with work and has been resting. And~"

Mina spoke softly, but her eyes sparkled with joy, "And Makoto even asked me to go hiking in a couple of days. He's clearly getting better. Aunt Eko said that besides needing rest, Makoto should also spend more time in nature..."

"So, I'm planning to go out with him to breathe in some fresh air in nature!"

Doesn't all of this show that Makoto is developing in a positive direction?
"Oxygen therapy?"

Son Chaeyoung glanced at Mina with surprise. She knew about this unnie's affair with her male relative!

You even had oxygen therapy with my boyfriend?

But with Ziyu right beside her, she couldn't say anything...

"Oppa doesn't even smoke anymore... and he still goes to get oxygen with you?" Son Chaeyoung rolled her eyes almost imperceptibly. All she does every day is stir up some nonsense!

Chou Tzu-yu, disguised as a "saury," glanced at Mina with her dark eyes and suddenly spoke up: "Isn't unnie dating hyung?" This revealed the relationship between Mina and her "good brother"...

"how do you know?"

Son Chaeyoung was stunned when she heard this. Was it not just her, Dahyun, and Mina unnie who knew about this, but also her boyfriend?

How did Tzuyu find out too?

Chou Tzu-yu glanced around at the expressions of the "Medical Integrity Alliance" members, her eyes widening in surprise. She then looked at the other two members of the Catering Team LINE: "...You all knew?"

His tone was one of utter surprise!
What a miscalculation!

"I know……"

Son Chaeyoung nodded, her lips trembling as she grinned, revealing her little tiger teeth! If she could, she'd rather not know! Being a clueless fool wouldn't be so bad!

But the truth is, she already knew...

Even though I still don't like Mina unnie, there's nothing I can do about it.

Mina bit her thin lips, a hint of shyness in her eyes: "Tzuyu, when did you find out that Makoto and I were dating?"

She always thought that only Sana-chan knew about this, since that friend always mistakenly thought that she was dating Makoto-chan, when in fact the two of them were not dating at all!
But who would deny it now?
"..."

Kim Da-hyun watched coldly as the others engaged in their subtle power struggles!

They're still fighting over who's the guy! It's so annoying!
It's turned upside down!

Seeing that Tzuyu had already revealed Mina's identity, there were no more taboos among the four of them! It's common knowledge that Tzuyu likes Da-da-shuai, Chaeyoung and Da-da-shuai are dating, Mina knows, Tofu knows, but Tzuyu doesn't!

Mina and Da Da Shuai are now dating, and the "Medical Integrity Alliance" is known to everyone!
Little Monster Tofu wanted to protect Big Guy's smile. Tzuyu, Mina, and Chaeyoung didn't know, but now, Kim Dahyun's expression changed, and she forced out a professional smile that she often wore in front of the camera, looking at Mina:
"Did Unnie become indifferent after she tricked Oppa into her life?"

It feels numb!

Now I'm going to let all you unqualified and incompetent sisters-in-law and sisters know my determination, Captain Kim!
Oppa is too gentle with you all!
Especially Tzuyu, is she going through her rebellious phase?
"Ziyu, what's the point of watching that 'Empresses in the Palace' all day? Your brother is so depressed right now... haven't you noticed?"

Kim Da-hyun spoke righteously, her tone filled with strong criticism and dissatisfaction!

She—she rose through the ranks from Corporal Kim to Captain Kim! She's a trusted advisor to the Great Marshal, and quite the character! She's also the Blue Dragon Film Award winner in three to five years!

How come I can't teach you jealous women a lesson?

With her sharp, single eyelids fluttering, Kim Da-hyun looked at Son Chae-young again: "Chae-young!"

How much longer are you going to maintain this Buddhist-like attitude?

"Someone stole your most important thing, and you're still going to be so indifferent? Now your oppa is seriously ill, are you still going to be indifferent?!"

She spoke cryptically, glancing casually at Mina and then at Tzuyu.

Since Tzuyu didn't know that Chaeyoung was dating Da Da Shuai, she didn't say it so bluntly!
I'm saying it one last time!

"Oppa is really very sick!"

"If I still don't see Oppa getting better in the near future, or if you all continue to be so incompetent, then don't blame me..." At this point, Kim Da-hyun looked at Mina, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu, whose innermost thoughts had been exposed, and her face turned ugly!
But for a moment, the words caught in her throat, and she didn't know what to say next.
Don't blame me for being ruthless?
Ruthless destruction of flowers?!
"...Dahyun, have you misunderstood something?"

"How could I be indifferent to Makoto! I had a long chat with Aunt Eko during my vacation the other day..." Mina said with a slightly unhappy tone. She clearly cared a lot about Makoto!
Going to the temple in Hyogo, besides praying for a long and happy life together with Makoto, the most important thing she hopes for is his good health! If Makoto can truly grasp the happiness that's within reach this year, she plans to take him there to fulfill her vow!
Perhaps in April or May?

—That was the season when cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and Makoto loved watching cherry blossoms the most!

"I'm not a Buddhist, I have no choice..."

Son Chaeyoung looked sullen and her eyes drooped. Whether it was Mina, Tzuyu, Nayeon unnie, or Sana unnie, she was already very close to Mina unnie. Even though she didn't like her now, she didn't make any rash moves!
Because I know perfectly well that Oppa won't let go! Just like he won't let go of my hand, rather than fighting with Mina unnie openly and secretly, it's better to just lie back and accept things as they come!

My boyfriend treats me the same as before, he's great to me... As for Nayeon unnie, we're all women from Jiangdong.

What about Sana unnie and Tzuyu?

One of them separated, and the other is the maknae (youngest member) of the food group line!

Just thinking about it makes me worried...

"Oh, I haven't watched 'Empresses in the Palace' lately..."

Chou Tzu-yu removed her face mask, her face taut. Suddenly, she thought back carefully and realized that her brother seemed to be acting strangely lately. She then added playfully, "I've been reading 'The Art of War' lately!"

"..." Kim Dahyun looked around at the other members and couldn't help but sigh dejectedly!

Sin!
Mr. DaShuai, do you really want to spend your life with these scheming wives and women?!
How about we consider some more down-to-earth girls?
such as……

……

"Beep beep!!!"

On February 13th, at 7:00 AM, Yoo Jeong-yeon and her manager arrived at MBC's television station. She greeted the director and MCs with a smile before entering the "observation room" set up for the program, a room of about 30 square meters.

The room is decorated in warm colors. In front of you is a huge TV screen, which displays pre-recorded videos of past guests and the live broadcast that your good friend Haji Cheng is about to start today. Around the room are several comfortable and casual sofas, with a long table arched around it.

Each location has a nameplate with the MCs' names on it.

Yu Dingyan picked up the product from the brand sponsor on the table, electrolyte water, took a sip, and then picked up her phone to call her good friend Haji Cheng!
Beside her, the surrounding TV crew, other MCs, and the director all stared intently at the phone in Yoo Jeong-yeon's hand, listening to the ringing tone on the other end of the line as they waited for it to be answered...

Yu Dingyan took in everyone's gaze and couldn't help but sigh!

Good bro, Hagi Cheng is definitely the center of attention wherever he goes. Even now, at only 7 a.m., with two hours to go before the scheduled 9 a.m. live broadcast, I reckon many citizens and young people across the country have already woken up, turned on MBC, and are waiting for the broadcast to begin...

……

"…Hello?"

In his villa in Itaewon, Gong Cheng was awakened by a series of urgent phone rings… He groggily picked up his phone from the bed and answered it.

Listening to Yu Dingyan's instructions over the phone, he slowly sat up in bed: "Alas!"

"I'll go open the door now..."

With that, Gong Cheng hung up the phone, got up, found the pajamas shirt lying on the sofa, and loosely draped it over his shoulders.

……five minutes later.

In winter, a few snowflakes drifted down from the sky over Seoul...

The MBC VJs and staff, wrapped in thick down jackets and trudging through the thin layer of snow that had just accumulated on the ground, had just reached the villa's entrance when they saw the gate slowly push open inwards.

A tall figure appeared first behind the door; it was Gong Cheng, who had just been woken up by Yu Dingyan's phone call.

He didn't seem to have fully recovered from his sleep. He stood upright, but with a lingering sense of languor. His shoulders were slightly relaxed, and his sleepy appearance was particularly genuine. His clean and handsome bare face, when seen by the crowd, made the female staff members who came over momentarily lose their focus.

In his line of sight, Gong Cheng rubbed his eyes and greeted him politely: "Annyeonghaseyo, I'm Tarot, come in..." As he finished speaking, a thin mist of cold air emanated from his mouth.

The staff responded in unison, then couldn't help but exchange glances, marveling at the handsomeness of this popular celebrity.

Gong Cheng stepped aside to make way for the doorway, brushed the stray hairs from his forehead to reveal his full forehead, and said, "Come in, it's warm inside. You can put the equipment in the living room first."

As he spoke, the drowsiness in his eyes deepened, and he couldn't help but yawn, instantly making his originally aloof and plain face more approachable. Turning around, Gong Cheng's tall figure was reflected in the snow-covered courtyard. His clean features and languid posture blended perfectly with the winter snow scene, like a warm winter poster...

In winter in Seoul, a layer of snow covered the roof of the three-story villa, and the large, empty yard, with its lawn that would normally be covered in spring, summer, and autumn, was now blanketed in white snow...

Several MBC staff members followed Gong Cheng and exclaimed in amazement at the villa before them as soon as they entered the courtyard.

To the left of the villa, near the swimming pool, behind a row of transparent glass, were rows of luxury cars in the garage. MBC staff roughly counted eight cars in total, including Mercedes-Benz and Aston Martin coupes, each with a different paint color, parked in the garage. There was also an all-black Bugatti with a flamboyant muscle car body...

The staff worked quickly and efficiently to set up the live streaming equipment in the courtyard, placing multiple cameras to facilitate camera switching during the live stream.

"Bugatti?"

The middle-aged man leading the group, dressed in a black suit under a heavy down jacket, looking every bit the corporate slave, stared in shock at the luxury cars in the garage and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"These cars and this villa aren't actually used by people who live here very often."

The guests were busy in the courtyard. Gong Cheng tightened the cotton coat he was wearing over his pajamas and stood outside politely to keep them company. He felt too embarrassed to go directly into the living room.

During a casual chat, a loud "Woof woof woof!" rang out!
May ran out of the warm living room and threw herself into Gong Cheng's arms.

"Oh mo!"

"Wow! Cute Xiu Gou! Is this May?"

As the saying goes, with fame comes trouble. Along with Gong Cheng's rise to fame, "May" has also become quite famous! Among the staff, several young girls couldn't help but look at May with delighted surprise, their eyes full of hope, as if they wanted to touch this adorable and silly Xiu Gou!
"Yes, May!"

"Go say hello? May!"

Gong Cheng squatted down, rubbed May's head, patted its bottom, and said with a smile.

Immediately afterwards, May obediently walked up to several female staff members, squatted down, and let them touch her and take pictures of her.

"This will cost four billion Korean won, right?"

The leader of MBC didn't pay much attention to the puppy. Instead, he stared in amazement at the Bugatti in the garage's floor-to-ceiling window. The flamboyant and unrestrained muscle car body and the deep black paint made the sharp lines of the body even more aggressive. Just by looking at its appearance, it exuded the aura of speed and wealth.

"40 billion?"

Upon hearing this amount, the busy staff couldn't help but look up and follow the leader's gaze.

Several women who had been teasing May were now staring in disbelief at the Bugatti in the garage.

"Around 40 billion? I can't quite remember..."

Gong Cheng casually remarked, his hands in his cotton-padded coat pockets. Actually, the Bugatti and Pagani were ordered together, but the Pagani hadn't been shipped back to Seoul yet. Just getting the car back from Europe had incurred a considerable amount of miscellaneous expenses.

But since I've already bought the car, I don't care about that...

Even if this Bugatti is transported back to Seoul, it has only been driven once, at the end of December when he finished his tour in the United States and drove to see Oh Sehun and Park Chanyeol to show off. What's the point of buying it if you're not going to show off?
In particular, Wu Sehun is very persistent in his pursuit of sports cars and once bought a Ferrari. Apart from that, the car has been sitting idle in the garage, as he doesn't use it much for his schedule or work.

"Have some coffee..." After the machines in the courtyard were set up, Gong Cheng led the seven or eight scattered staff members into the living room, to the coffee machine, poured a few cups of coffee for everyone, and delivered them over.

"...Actually, Tarot, you can go and do your own thing first."

“We don’t need to be taken care of here…” a female VJ couldn’t help but say after taking the coffee from Gong Cheng.

I secretly admired this popular celebrity's approachable personality; he made me feel incredibly warm and friendly!

She didn't think the boy in front of her was putting on a show. After all, the live broadcast hadn't started yet, and not a single camera had been turned on... Moreover, almost all the staff from various TV stations and film crews who had worked with the boy in front of her praised him highly!

Despite his reputation as a "playboy," he's actually a cute, approachable, and sincere young man!

"Annyeong~"

"It's not really a matter of taking care of you all. In fact, I should be troubling you all today!" Gong Cheng picked up a bag of dog food, fed May while smiling and saying, "Besides, it's just a cup of coffee, it's nothing."

"...You are so kind."

The TV station staff member smiled sheepishly as he spoke.

"Ah, Noona!"

"I should be the youngest, right? Why do I need to use honorifics?" Gong Cheng looked around at everyone's appearance and estimated their ages. Looking at them, even the two intern VJs were older than him!
...until the preparations for the live broadcast are completed.

It was already 8:30.

"Aigoo! You never told us your house in Itaewon was so big!"

In the observation room of "I Live Alone" on MBC, Yoo Jeong-yeon and several MCs were making their final preparations. She was video chatting with Gong Cheng on her phone, glancing at the magnificent decorations, the empty courtyard, and the ridiculously luxurious garage!

She couldn't help but mutter, "Tsk tsk, I suddenly realize that all the money I've earned in all these years since I debuted isn't even enough for your garage full of luxury cars..."

"You've realized it too late!"

In the video, Gong Cheng's teasing voice came out, causing everyone in the observation room to burst into laughter!
They were also curious about what "Tarot's" home was like, but the live stream hadn't started yet, so they couldn't see anything specific and could only peek at the video footage on Yoo Jeong-yeon's phone.

"By the way, during today's live stream, staff members might randomly select questions from the online chat to ask you. Would you be willing to do that?"

Yoo Jeong-yeon sought the opinion of her good friend Ha Ki-sung on behalf of the director, saying it was a live broadcast!

It's still being broadcast live on TV, unlike live streams on mobile phones or computers where you can see comments and bullet screens. At least Hajime himself can't see them; only the program staff backstage and the TV station can access them.

"Anything is fine, I'll answer anything you know!"

Gong Cheng spoke casually, and in the video, his eyebrows and eyes looked sleepy as he yawned!
"That's fine then. There won't be any sensitive issues, and you don't have anything to avoid~ Fighting, Oppa!"

In the video, Yoo Jeong-yeon's dashing features are on full display as she raises her fist to cheer on her good friend Hagi-sung!

……

"He's dead! You're insane!"

Gong Cheng pursed his lips, pressed the hang-up button, and then glanced at the whiskey on the bedside table in the bedroom.

I was originally planning to put it away, but then I thought better of it. That's just how he is in private; there's no point in hiding anything...

A live-streaming machine was set up at the bedroom door. He looked at the director who had come to film him and asked somewhat awkwardly, "Can I take a break for a while?"

Gong Cheng was woken up at seven in the morning by Yu Dingyan. To be honest, he was still incredibly sleepy! Anyway, it's a reality show, so he didn't feel any pressure. He had already watched a few episodes of "I Live Alone" before.

Bae Suzy, for example, slept until 2 PM! She even hired a private trainer to come to her home and had a beautiful yoga session...

"OK!"

The director chuckled as he spoke, but then asked, "After the live broadcast begins, may we film your home?"

He cautiously inquired, after all, they were in someone's home, and the production team was mindful of some privacy. If Tarot disagreed, there was nothing they could do.

"no problem!"

Gong Cheng scratched his messy black hair, not caring at all! To be honest, apart from carefully visiting the house when he was looking at it, he was too lazy to come here on other days. Then, after the director turned and left, he wrapped himself in his pajamas and snuggled into the quilt!
……

"Really, teacher? Minjun is really sick. He's vomiting and has diarrhea, and he's almost collapsed from exhaustion!"

"Ningning and I are taking her to the hospital for an IV drip..."

In the cramped living room of the SM trainee dormitory, Ning Yizhuo and Kim Minjun stared at each other with twitching lips. Liu Zhimin stood on the floor pacing back and forth, holding a phone and putting on a dramatic performance. Her small, oval face was filled with emotion as she exclaimed, "Moragu?"

"Let Minjun say something? Okay, okay!"

Liu Zhimin quickly came over, holding the phone in her hand, and brought it to Jin Minzheng's ear.

Kim Minjung gave a bitter laugh, but hearing the distrustful voice of her practice teacher on the other end of the line, she still pretended to be weak, "Teacher Park..." she greeted weakly, her voice listless.

Immediately afterward, Liu Zhimin gave Ning Yizhuo and Jin Minzheng an "OK" sign, and then hurriedly nodded and flattered the person on the other end of the phone: "Yes, yes, teacher! Don't worry! As Minzheng's best friend, Ningning and I will take good care of her!"

With that, he hung up the phone!
Ning Yizhuo glanced at the MBC TV station on TV. The live broadcast was about to begin, and the countdown was on the screen, displaying the logo of "I Live Alone." The two liars in front of her were quite different; one was extremely smug, while the other looked resentful.
Uchigami Toshiyuki was not a trainee of the same rank as them. She had only joined the company not long ago and had never taken a day off before. So it was easy for her to get away with her first leave request. She just made up a reason and it was approved!
The four little ones plan to take a day off today and watch "Tarot's" live stream!

The coffee table was covered with soft drinks and snacks that the group had bought early that morning from the convenience store, creating a lively atmosphere!
But Kim Minjung retorted, "Why is it always because I'm sick that unnie asks for leave?"

"I don't care if you get sick next time..."

"We'll talk about next time next time!" Liu Zhimin plopped down on the sofa with a nonchalant air, tore open a bag of potato chips, and stared at the live stream on the screen!

I want to see just how big Oppa's villa is!
If living alone in such a large place would make you feel lonely, then I'm happy to move in! I'd even be okay with my oppa having sex with me every day!

"Qinjia, are there so many people who didn't go to the company for practice today?"

Ning Yizhuo, who was looking down, suddenly glanced at the messages in the trainee group chat and found that more than half of the female trainees in the group chat were proudly sharing that they were preparing to watch today's "Tarot" live broadcast!

"I bet everyone's waiting for the live stream just like us~" Uchinaga Eri glanced at the group chat on her phone, then shrugged and said, "I'm afraid it's not just the trainees, but also a lot of celebrities besides the public and fans who are watching Oppa's live stream today!"

"Speaking of which, this is the first time Oppa has participated in such a long live broadcast. Everyone is very interested in Oppa's private life and wants to know more about him."

As they were talking, Liu Zhimin, staring at the advertisement before the live stream officially started, couldn't help but mutter a curse under her breath:
"Damn it...that persistent old woman!"

Ning Yizhuo and the others looked in the direction of the sound and saw an advertisement for the soju brand "Jinro" playing on the TV screen. Since IU became the spokesperson for Jinro soju in 2014, the contract had been extended until the end of 18. At the beginning of this year, the "Jinro" brand officially announced a new spokesperson!
For Yoo Jimin, it was an "old acquaintance"—Irene Bae Joo-hyun, the leader of the girl group Red Velvet.

The brand stated that Jinro's pursuit of a "pure as dew" brand image perfectly aligns with Bae Joo-hyun's, and that she demonstrated outstanding star qualities in the brand evaluation survey, making her Jinro's first choice as a spokesperson to strengthen communication with younger generations.

The official announcement was made at the beginning of last month, and Bae Joo-hyun said after becoming the spokesperson, "I am very happy to be the spokesperson for a representative Korean soju brand, and I will work hard to help the brand grow through activities."

Liu Zhimin watched as Bae Zhuxuan, that old woman, held a bottle of "Jinro" soju in a close-up shot on camera, and grumbled, "I will never buy Jinro soju again! My dad, my mom, my uncles, my whole family will never buy it!"

"What a terrible spokesperson!"

As she spoke, Liu Zhimin angrily turned to Ning Yizhuo, Nae Yongzhili, and Kim Minjun, and said earnestly, "You should also boycott her! Bae Joo-hyun doesn't fit the image of a representative of our young people at all!"

"Yes, sir~"

The three of them gave a perfunctory reply.

……

"Unnie's commercial is amazing!"

In Ryderbabe's dorm room, Bae Joo-hyun, picking her toes, listened to Kang Seul-gi's praise as the "Jinro" advertisement in her line of sight ended.

The logo of the show "I Live Alone" flashed by, and then the show started airing—no, live!

The scene first cuts to the observation room, where Yoo Jeong-yeon and several MCs from various industries—actors, hosts, cartoonists, and models—introduce themselves with smiles and recite the opening lines of "I Live Alone"!

"...Today's guest performer is a male singer who is incredibly popular, incredibly popular, with a huge national following, widespread popularity, international fame, influence, awards and honors... He's got it all! Wow, this artist is really, really hard to get in the entertainment industry these days!"

After the opening remarks, cartoonist Sung Hoon-man introduced today's guests with exaggerated expressions!
The comments section read: "Fuck you! Can you hurry up and cut to Oppa's shot? MBC was announcing last month that Oppa would be on your show, making it known to everyone, and now you're just putting on airs and padding the runtime?"

Model Cha Hee-ah, with her delicate features and bright smile, said, "Hoonman oppa, stop keeping us in suspense!" She then turned to the camera with a beaming smile, "Today's special guest for 'I Live Alone' is—the world-renowned Tarot!"

"The pride of our Great Cold Nether Kingdom!"

She then added a sentence to Rong Youyan!
"Damn it! You bastard, stealing again?!" Ning Yizhuo cursed angrily as she watched the MC on TV. Realizing her words were harsh, she glanced at her friends beside her.
Thankfully, he was speaking Chinese! They couldn't understand him!
"Are you sick?! Oppa is clearly Chinese! You're shameless!"

Upon hearing this, Yoo Jeong-yeon, who was in the "observation room," quickly tried to smooth things over, looking embarrassed: "Oppa, although you are Chinese, your achievements are enough to make our entire Asian community feel proud and honored!"

She knew perfectly well that these kinds of words about the pride of the Great Cold Nation were fine to say privately online! But this was a live broadcast! This person was clearly Chinese, and here she was, making things... sigh!

Another MC chuckled and chimed in, "Alright, let's cut to the chase." He glanced at the new MC, Yoo Jeongyeon, who was starting as a regular cast member today, and added, "I heard that Twice and Tarot are really good friends!"

"That makes sense, otherwise Jeongyeon wouldn't have been able to invite Tarot to participate in the show. He's a very good friend, which is why he came to help record the variety show!"

Hearing this, Yu Dingyan felt incredibly pleased!

Good bro, Haji Cheng! You're so awesome!

"So, Jeongyeon, based on your understanding of Tarot, what would he be doing at home during this time?"

When faced with the MC's question, Yoo Jeongyeon stroked her chin, her handsome face feigning deep thought for a while before finally saying, "Sleep!!!"

"sleep?"

A chorus of questions arose from the MCs!

The camera started switching during the live stream of "I Live Alone"...

……

Meanwhile, the cameras in Villa No. 27 in Itaewon, which were responsible for the live broadcast, had all been turned on ten minutes earlier.

Seven or eight staff members were idly resting in the living room or taking a walk in the yard, or playing with Gong Cheng's dog "May"!
When the entire peninsula's MBC television stations broadcast footage of Gong Cheng's bedroom, the large room, though lacking elaborate decorations, exuded understated elegance and comfort.

One side of the room is a floor-to-ceiling curtain, made of dark gray linen with an excellent drape, completely blocking out the wind, snow and light from outside. Only a very faint sliver of sunlight leaks in through the gaps in the curtain, adding a touch of tranquility to the room.

A guitar sat in the corner of the bedroom, while a half-empty bottle of whiskey stood in front of the bedside table.

The camera's focus was undoubtedly on Gong Cheng, fast asleep in bed. He lay on his side, his body slightly curled up, the blanket only covering his waist, revealing his simple black pajamas and a small section of his fair neck to the audience!

"Aigoo! I knew it!"

“At this time of day, he always gets up very late on days when he doesn’t have any schedules…” In the observation room in the upper right corner of the split screen, Yu Dingyan helplessly rubbed his forehead and said with a wry smile, especially when he saw the wine bottle on the bedside table, he guessed that his good brother probably drank a lot again last night.

Another MC laughed and added, "That's right, they're celebrities! They should definitely rest well on their rare days off!"

They were used to this kind of situation. Many of the guests who participated in previous episodes slept in until they naturally woke up, and those who, apart from personal habits, were generally just putting on a show...

During the live stream, the camera in Gong Cheng's bedroom zoomed in slightly, focusing on his face as he lay on his side on the pillow. A face hailed as divine was unknowingly revealed to many citizens and fans!

His black, tousled hair was casually disheveled, and his breathing was even and steady. Even in his sleep, his features, without makeup, were still strikingly beautiful. His tightly closed eyelashes softened his usually sharp and aggressive brows, giving him an unadorned, languid, and handsome look. Paired with the wine bottle on the bedside table beside him, it added a touch of fragile, youthful innocence...

"Ahhhhh!!!"

As a die-hard "Tarot" fan, Li Baona made a sharp, explosive sound in her dormitory!

As her scream subsided, Li Baona could clearly hear the screams of other "Akana" in the surrounding dormitory buildings!

Tai Xi Ba Shuai is too handsome!
She excitedly took a screenshot of the live stream on her phone and quickly sent a comment in the chat: "My oppa's hobby is—murdering in his dreams!" To put it simply, he's so handsome!

……

In the dorm room of 【IZ*ONE】, Jang Won-young sat on the sofa in her pajamas, staring intently at the live broadcast on the TV without daring to blink!
Meanwhile, Jiang Huiyuan, who is usually carefree, was eating spicy snacks, squinting his nearsighted eyes, and slightly opening his mouth. He couldn't help but exclaim, "If I could see this handsome face every time I open my eyes, I would be willing to live in such a spacious and lonely villa!"

"Are you kidding me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuanying turned her slightly chubby face, a pure yet forced smile playing on her lips, before finally adding two words, "Unnie?"

“Shhhhhh—”

As they were talking, a girl with short hair wearing a mask and an MBC TV name tag suddenly appeared on the live stream screen. She whispered to the camera, "Tarot is still resting~"

"To ensure that viewers and fans won't be bored, we specifically consulted Tarot and gave everyone an immersive tour of Tarot's home..."

As she spoke softly, she picked up the live-streaming camera and slowly walked out of the bedroom: "I'm sure everyone is curious, right?" The staff pointed the camera at the corridor in the villa!
The comments section was filled with messages like: "No way! I want to admire Oppa's sleeping face a little longer!", "Look at Oppa's house! I'll only be happy if Oppa earns a lot of money! Otherwise, why does he work so hard?", and "Yeah, yeah, yeah!"

Amidst the chaotic barrage of comments...

In the observation room, Yoo Jeongyeon earnestly expressed herself in front of the camera: "Actually, I'm also very curious about what Oppa's home is like. We TWICE have been invited to visit him before, but he was busy with his tour last year and didn't have much time at all."

He was speaking with a smile...

In the live stream, a staff member carefully pushed open a door next to the master bedroom and introduced it like a tour guide: "Tarot said this is the walk-in closet, let's take a look?"

With a questioning tone, she tiptoed inside. Even though Gong Cheng had given everyone a tour before the live stream started, she still couldn't help but tremble in front of this walk-in closet, especially since... every girl dreams of filling her walk-in closet with all kinds of high-end clothes and hats...

The area of ​​a single walk-in closet is around 100 square meters, which is equivalent to the area of ​​a house for many people!

"Ashiba?"

"Are you kidding me...? This is the darling son of high-end luxury brands, isn't it?!"

"Qinjia? That's enough for me to work hard for a lifetime! Holy crap!"

"...Hey, this is Tarot's walk-in closet." The VJ held a camera and spoke with a tone full of envy and longing, showing the layout of the walk-in closet to the audience in great detail.

In a space of about 100 square meters, unlike the simple and soft bedroom, this place exudes sophistication and presence. The four walls are filled with custom-made brown solid wood wardrobes. The dark brown wood grain is delicate and glossy, and under the illumination of the recessed spotlights, it exudes a sense of understated luxury, like a small high-end fashion showroom. You might mistake it for a boutique!
The tops of the four walls display the logos of [LV], [Armani], [Burberry], and [DIOR].

It's as if they're afraid of confusing the brands, so they categorize them in an orderly, straightforward, and simple way!
Various single items and haute couture pieces released in the past two years, as well as some unreleased collaboration products, are neatly arranged in the wardrobe. The various suits and ties alone form a beautiful sight on the wall, dazzling the eye.

As fans know, Makoto Miyamoto is a baseball cap fanatic, especially when it comes to baseball caps...

"Aigoo..."
