Whoosh. The faded laminated paper stuck with blue tape fluttered in the cold wind. A thick, bug-like figure squatted busily in the alley. Wearing a thick padded jacket, a toad apron, rubber gloves, track pants, and three-striped slippers, Cha Eui-jae was peacefully sorting recyclables in his winter house look. As he removed the label from a PET bottle, Cha Eui-jae muttered like a complaint. “Why is there always so much trash, no matter how much I throw away…” He gathered the labels and…- 3.3 M • Ongoing
- (4) 11:48 PM, Awakened Management Bureau Field Response Team 1 Office. The spacious office was brightly lit despite the late hour. “Team Leader, would you like a snack?” “Ah, yes. Just bring me an energy bar, please.” Diligent public servant Jung Bin had volunteered for duty tonight. It wasn’t that there was overtime work or urgent tasks, but it was a customary practice at this time of the year. —We’re almost there. In just 12 minutes, we’ll be able to see the new…

- “It’s a gift. Put mine up too.” “…” “Well, this kind of fan service is basic. It’s not because I was grateful for the rice.” Honeybee brushed her shimmering hair back. She looked ecstatic to meet her fan, anyone could see it. If a quick-witted person had been nearby, they would have teased her for acting so out of character, but fortunately or unfortunately, the only one with her was the clueless Bae Won-woo. He was genuinely impressed. “Oh~ are you a fan…

- Honeybee, South Korea’s 5th-ranked hunter, and the advertising model for CyC, a hunter-exclusive dye made from dungeon byproducts, was busy giving fan service while flaunting her shiny blonde bleached hair in a traditional hangover soup restaurant. When Cha Eui-jae, channeling the excitement of meeting a star hunter, responded enthusiastically, the other hunters, caught off guard, also clapped along. Honeybee withdrew her fierce aura and bowed politely. “I’m sorry for startling you. I…

- Although Lee Sa-young had proposed a deal first and even given his phone number, he didn’t come back to the store for several days. During that time, Cha Eui-jae didn’t delete his number. Nor did he sell it on Tomato Market. Instead, Cha Eui-jae found himself staring at Lee Sa-young’s contact information, lost in thought more often. As Lee Sa-young had ominously predicted, strange individuals started flocking to the store like carp chasing food. For example… “Yes, this is the hangover…

- “I want you, Hyung.” Their eyes met, and Cha Eui-jae forced a smile. What? An unknown person? No one knows I exist? Cha Eui-jae recalled the educational comics featuring caricatures of himself and the documentaries he had glimpsed. There couldn’t be anyone as famous as him, this guy…. “A skilled person who doesn’t belong anywhere and is not known to the public. The fewer people who know, the better.” “…” “Is that too demanding?” Lee Sa-young silently moved,…

- Did you hear everything? In a brief moment, countless thoughts flashed through my mind. Should I pretend not to know and just run away? But I had made eye contact with Lee Sa-young. Lee Sa-young, resting his chin on his hand, was openly staring at Cha Eui-jae. Ignoring Jung Bin who was sitting right in front of him, Lee Sa-young’s brazen attitude made Cha Eui-jae want to put a gas mask on him backward. So he couldn’t see anything. Cha Eui-jae had invaded the space that Lee Sa-young had separated…

- The sliding door slid open, and as someone entered the shop, the previously relaxed atmosphere froze solid once again. The hunters who had been chewing their rice stopped their chewing motions, and someone who nearly choked managed to stifle it through sheer willpower. A figure, bent over with a gas mask, stopped in its tracks, seemingly assessing the situation. An almost absolute silence, where not even breathing could be heard, prevailed. It was the one standing by the door who broke the silence…

- ‘Why are my ears so itchy?’ Standing in front of the gas stove, Cha Eui-jae scratched his ears irritably as he cooked hangover soup. Today, for some reason, the hangover soup restaurant was bustling as usual since Bae Won-woo and Lee Sa-young, along with the members of the Pado Guild, hadn’t shown up. The hunters even had bright smiles on their faces for a change. Cha Eui-jae, too, had managed to forget the painful failure of Tomato Market and was having a relatively peaceful day.…

- A man in a suit with a gentle impression, public official Jung Bin, was sitting on the wooden porch with his legs crossed, watching the world’s only S-grade artisan perform a protest show on the ground. “Give me that magic stone!” “Um— Hong Ye-seong-ssi, you didn’t see anything.” “Aaah, get it for me.” Flailing his limbs on the ground, he looked like a child throwing a tantrum in the toy section of a store. With a flick of his hand, Jung Bin signaled an…
