Chapter 30

Everyone stared at Hyoyoung in shock.

“What?”

“I checked the online forums and fan cafes and it looks like there is no one who is able to form a logical defense for you guys. It’s because no one knows your identities. You people have no proper spokesperson who can represent you.”

“Well, obviously it’s because no one knows who we are.”

“But I do.”

“Huh?”

“I will become your anonymous acquaintance who speaks the truth. I will use Myunghee’s own trick to our advantage.”

“You?”

“Yup. I will say that I am Red M’s cousin and I am willing to tell the truth about the group.”


Jiwoo asked in confusion, “Hey, Hyoyoung, why not just say you are my younger sister? Why do you have to say you are my cousin?”

“Just to be safe. It would be too risky to say I am Kiwook Oppa’s sister. It would be even riskier to say I am Hyojun’s sister. I might make a mistake and reveal something about myself, which might cause even bigger problems. The best thing would be to pretend to be a cousin of Red M. It would look like I can still be objective because I am not too closely related, but still have accurate information about the group.”

“Wow, so clever! You’re brilliant!”

“Gosh, you are so loud, Jiwoo Oppa! So, are we cool with this plan? I will write up something and upload it to either the fan café or as a comment to Myunghee’s article. Then, what you guys need to do is to mention that I am telling the truth at your live show tonight.”

“And what are you going to write?”

“There are five points I need to make.”

“Five?”

“The first point would be to disprove the bromance theory between Red and Blue M.”

[Hello. I am Red M’s cousin.]

[I have been following the rumors about The M, and I can’t take it anymore.]

[So here I am writing this to provide some clarity and the truth.]

[Red M’s parents are currently in Switzerland. His father is my uncle.]

[I live in Seoul and I am in grade 12. Two months ago, I found out that my own cousin is Red M. I visited his home and saw the mask by accident. Red M made me promise not to say anything to anyone, and that is why I have been keeping quiet.]

[Until now.]

[The strange and ridiculous rumors… I couldn’t take it anymore.]

[Red and Blue M met about 10 years ago. They were both studying in Canada when they first met.]

[Blue M Oppa was born and raised in China. As far as I know, his parents still live there.]

[When they were in Canada, they formed a band there as a hobby. Later, Blue M Oppa returned to Korea to become a trainee and here, he met the other members.]

[That is how The M was created. It is true that Red and Blue M are great friends. They even came to my house a few days ago for a sleepover.]

[However, they are just friends and nothing more.]

[There is nothing going on between them other than genuine friendship. I can assure you this fact 100%.]

“Now, I will need proof that I am really Red M’s cousin and that I know you guys. So what I need is for you two to stand in front of this wall, wear your masks, and take a photo, which I will use as credentials. Make sure there is no window or any other unique things that will appear in the photo. Your fans are crazy-obsessive and they WILL find out where you took the picture if you give them a chance. You can just wear what you are wearing right now. Yes, those ugly worn shirts will be fine. Now, the second point I need to make is the rumor about Black M being in love with Purple M.”

[As for Black M, there is no doubt that he is straight. He is the straightest guy I have ever met.]

[He is actually a rather cold and sometimes a rude guy. He was known to be very unfriendly, even during his trainee days. When they first met, Black M and Purple M got into a huge fight but they later became good friends.]

[Blue M Oppa told me that when he first met Black M, he thought Black M Oppa was a psychopath because he was such a control freak.]

Hyojun frowned and complained, “That’s not fair. You are unnecessarily making me looked like a jerk. You are too biased when writing this. A psychopath? A control freak? What the hell!”

Hyoyoung replied, “This is the only way to make my story sound plausible and realistic. Just let it go. Now… the third point is about the masks.”

“The masks? What about them?”

“One of the claims Myunghee made was that you have a large scar on your face and that is why you wear your mask. And she wrote that you got your scar from…”

When Hyoyoung sighed and hesitated, Hyojun asked, “Why are you sighing so loudly? What’s wrong?”

“Well, she said that the scar is from…”

“Hey, just spit it out! What about the scar?”

“She said that you got it from Japan… because you used to be in a gang.”

“What?”

“And you went to a makeup artist to hide this scar, and the one you went to happened to be…”

“Myunghee?”

“Yeah…”

“I… I guess… you do have to explain the masks then.”

“Yeah. So, here is my third point.”

[As for the masks… I did ask him about it.]

[I asked him why he wore it, and… the reason is actually very simple.]

[He said he just wants to go out freely. More specifically, he wants to go to the game rooms often without being recognized.]

[Wow…]

[Yes, I know. It sounds ridiculous, but it’s the truth.]


[He explained that there will come a time when he needs to retire from being an idol, and when it happens, he doesn’t want to live under the shadow of his former fame.]

[He said after the group disappears, he wants to live as his own person. They all do.]

[I am telling you the truth, and I will bet my life on it.]

[As for the scar… all he has on his face are some minor acne scars and a small black mole-like scar from being poked by a pencil by accident when he was young.]

[Oh… and sometimes, he cuts himself while shaving, because he can be very careless.]

[Other than that… there is nothing else. No big scar. He is actually afraid of knives, so he doesn’t even cut his carrots into pieces. He just holds the whole entire carrot and eats it like that.]

[The rumor about him having a scar on his face from being a yakuza member… that is definitely not true.]

Jiwoo exclaimed, “Wow. That’s really good! What’s next?”

“The fourth point is…”

After a short hesitation, Hyoyoung glanced at Kiwook. She took a deep breath and continued slowly, “I will have to explain about Purple M’s claim that he has someone he likes…”
