Chapter 991: Yes, I'm A Lucky Boy
The cast had now settled, and they were waiting for the cameras to start rolling once again.
June was sat in the very middle, appearing like a lost kitty as he glanced around the room. It wasn't his first time being in a variety show, but this one was different.
Crawling Man was something he had watched since he was young-not this particular show. However, the one in their homeland was something he diligently watched.
The cast members whispered to each other while the crew got ready.
"Is he really real?" Bangsoo asked.
Shinchan shook his head. "He's the most ethereal man I've seen in my life-and trust me, I've seen a lot of men."
Jumi tilted her head to the side. "I don't know how to feel about that."
Even the production crew couldn't believe that June was right in front of their eyes.
"We're going to have a feast today!"
Just then, June had finished the cup of water that they had prepared beforehand.
Their eyes widened, and they quickly scrambled to refill it.
Bangsoo noticed this and shook his head, pointing at the group of staff. "I can already sense the favoritism here."
They merely smiled and went back to their stations.
"Settle down now!" the main producer exclaimed. "We will be resuming the filming. Please clap the slate."
The cameras were rolling once again, showing the guests and the cast members for this week's special.
Jaeduck started off. "We have three amazing guests in our midst! Let us all give them a round of applause."
- I'm sorry for everyone, but I'm just looking at June.
- The upstairs commenter is so real. I'm not even a fan, but my eyes just stray to him unconsciously.
- Seriously, though, why did they have to put him next to Bangsoo and Shinchan?
"Before we get on with the missions, we can't miss out on their introductions," Jaeduck continued. "Why don't we start with Niki?"
Niki smiled at the camera. "Hi, everyone! My name is Niki. I started acting three years ago with minor roles. This year, I landed a lead role in the daily TV drama called Steel Family," she introduced.
"Three years?" Jumi exclaimed. "I thought you were a rookie in the industry."
Niki scratched the back of her head. "A lot of people think that way," she chuckled. "I think
it's partially because of my luck, and that's why people think I've been in the industry for only a short time."
"Ah, right!" Eunho exclaimed. "The producers told us that these guests have something in common today."
"They haven't told us yet," Jeewoo said, glancing at the crew.
- I think I could already tell.
- Isn't it obvious from the name of the castle they're in?
- It's literally called the 'Bad Luck Castle!'
"I assume we all have bad luck," Niki smiled.
The cast members looked at all three guests before shaking their heads. Shinchan then pointed to Niki and Rowoon. "I could understand the two of you having bad luck, but I just can't imagine June having it."
Akira burst into laughter after Shinchan said those words.
Ren, too, couldn't hold in his amusement. "Please tell me you proved them wrong, June."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
June rolled his eyes. "You're supposed to be rooting for me."
Ren held out a peace sign. "Sorry, bro."
"We'll get into that later," Jaeduck said, already sounding amused. "Let's get into your luck, shall we? Why would you classify yourself as having such bad luck?"
"I mean, a lot of our members here have bad luck. For example, Bangsoo, Jeewoo..."
"You too!" Bangsoo exclaimed. "Don't act like you don't have rotten luck, too."
Jaeduck clicked his tongue. "I am not up to your level."
Bangsoo was about to argue, but he couldn't in the end.
"Jumi and Eunho have relatively good luck, while Shinchan is a hit or miss. I think he got unlucky with his face, though," Jeewoo chimed, earning a scoff from Shin-chan.
Jaeduck shook his head. "Let the guests speak!" he reprimanded them in a joking tone.
Niki chuckled and explained her luck. "Well, I've always only landed the minor roles-and it's no ordinary minor roles. I've been a stunt double, a ghost, a dishwasher, a prisoner. You name
it."
"Oh, that is pretty bad," Jumi chuckled.
"Yeah," Niki said. "I still have some streams of bad luck here and there, but after I landed this role, it became significantly better."
"How about you, Rowoon?" Eunho asked, feeling intrigued. "What kind of luck do you have?"
Rowoon scratched the back of his head before responding. "You can say it's pretty similar to that of Niki," he started off. "I've been performing in comedy bars since I graduated from high school, and I've only landed dirt roles since then."
"I don't even know how I was able to get to where I am today. Shinchan knows that."
Shinchan nodded, knowing Rowoon's story. "And the worst part is-he's in debt!" he
exclaimed.
The cast members were surprised before they burst into laughter. Meanwhile, Rowoon walked to where Shinchan was and covered his mouth.
"Bro!" he exclaimed. "I told you not to tell anyone about that."
Shinchan pushed him away. "Why not?" he asked. "You're slowly paying it off. He wanted to
make a business with a fellow comedian, but he ran away with the capital."
Rowoon pursed his lips. "I think that's a good enough testament to my bad luck."
"Yeah, we don't need to hear anymore," Jeewoo said. "You've got worse luck than me!"
"Moving onto the next person," Jaeduck said. The cast members all turned to June, who still appeared too innocent to be in this episode.
"June," he started off. "Do you have bad luck like these guys?"
It took a while for June to answer. Bad luck? He had a whole lot of it. However, of course, he
didn't have any stories to tell such as that of Rowoon and Niki. So, he merely shook his head.
Then, he smiled at the camera and gave it a thumbs up.
"I think my luck is not too bad, actually."
