Daldongne Genius Writer Episode 191

191. Yu Saebyeok

On a hot plate, a tender steak appeared at an angle, revealing its light pink cooked inside.

‘Is this melting or eating?’

I chewed a couple of bites and looked at the children.

While everyone was clinking their utensils and eating a delicious meal, Dawn, who was sitting across from Nara, pushed the plate a little more towards Nara.

So after a while.

Seokhyeon, whose stomach was full first, gasped and leaned back in his chair.

“This is the first time I’ve eaten a steak so filling…”

“Where did you spend the money you earned? “I don’t eat anything like this.”

“I saved it~. Actually, I don’t have time to write anything. Why go out and eat alone? In that case, I think it would be better to replenish energy at home.”

Poor guy.

In short, it means that I couldn’t go out to play because I didn’t have anyone to play with or time.

‘I have younger siblings, but Joo Seok-hyeon is alone.’

In a way, your only friends are yourself.

Dawn cut the meat with a knife and put it in Dal-i’s mouth and said.

“Okay, don’t just stay in a corner of the house, make friends.”

“…girl friend.”

“I see.”

“Please introduce me.”

“I don’t know any women. “You find it.”

At Dawn’s words, Seokhyeon opened his eyes while chewing meat as if telling him not to lie.

Well, after listening to the lonely guy’s complaints, it was time to listen to the thoughts of today’s birthday person.

“country.”

“huh?”

I ask the country that was drinking ade.

“Do you think it was a good birthday?”

“What does it mean to be okay! “It was great.”

Heechan looks satisfied.

“It’s rewarding because so many people worked together.”

Dal-i, who had been skipping the cherry tomatoes from the salad, also nods.

While the meal was in full swing, my cell phone rang in the early morning.

[call][Silwon]

‘Really, this person…’

Dawn got up to answer the phone, nodded at people as if telling them to eat, and left the noisy store. As expected, the voice of Silwon, the writer who answered the phone, floated through the air.

-hello? Old younger brother?

“hello.”

-Oh, you look really angry today?

Well, it’s not like I’m angry.

“I know. “What is a toy, really?”

-If you invited me too, I won’t send you anything like that.

Rather, it seems that it was not intended to stimulate participation in the contest.

“Anyway, try sending something like that one more time. “I’m going to send 100 of them to your house.”

-Uh huh. Old little brother! You can’t spend money like that.

“You’re talking to someone else. “Brother, please try one more time.”

-You seem really annoyed. Ah, it was good to send it.

“what the···.”

Earlier, I was a little annoyed because the song didn’t stop, but now that it’s in the past, it’s just a memory when I look back.

“Anyway, an invitation? “You say you’ll come, but what kind of invitation is that?”

-Happy told me not to come. They said I didn’t have to come.

“what?”

Dawn looked far away inside the store, towards Seokhyeon and her younger siblings.

“Did Seokhyun say that?”

Silwon expresses his disappointment at this time.

At this time, he was acting like he was three years old rather than thirty years old.

-okay!!! I suggested that we prepare raw green onions together, and they said they would do it!!! That’s a rejection or something!!!

From Seok-hyeon’s point of view, Silwon has never been with Dal or Hee-chan’s birthday, so he feels like he’s trying to push himself too hard.

Because he didn’t want there to be such a misunderstanding between Silwon, the writer he was closest to, and Seokhyun, who could be said to be his best friend, Dawn stepped in and explained it, even though he was not the type of person to explain things.

“Because you didn’t come to Dal or Heechan’s birthday…?”

-what?

“From Seokhyun’s perspective, it wouldn’t have made sense to come to Nara’s birthday.”

-···.

“So, honestly, I would have thought it was unreasonable for my brother to drag me to the car. “I’m preparing a new work, and I’m also taking time off from work due to deadlines.”

-Miss, you are very tolerant. I wasn’t angry anyway, I was just a little disappointed.

Of course, I should also explain the position of author Silwon, who has become sullen at this point.

“Of course, I understand your position.”

-What is my position?

It’s obvious.

Dawn spoke.

“You gave me a ride when you weren’t close to me. It was also the National Sketch Contest at that time… “In a way, I guess he secretly asked me because he had a bit of an episode with me.”

-···how old are you? It’s so unnecessarily accurate, you’re getting fat.

“Stop talking nonsense.”

The ‘how old are you?’ question is a bit awkward.

So, let’s try to make the relationship between the two a little better at this point.

“I know that? “Seokhyun was the only one who liked the toy his brother sent.”

-what? Those plastic flower candles?

“okay. “That candle looks like it’s possessed by a ghost.”

-Yes, he is a very good friend… You liked it?

Dawn laughed quietly.

“And Nara really liked my brother’s gift.”

***

Just like that, the country’s birthday, August 29th, comes to an end.

“I was thankful for today.”

“I am more grateful to you for feeding me meat. Goes!”

Seokhyeon got out of the car, waved his hand, and walked up the street of Daldongne.

I also open the window and wave my bracelet-clad hand until Seokhyeon is out of sight.

“depart?”

“huh.”

The car finally heads towards the Evergreen Apartments in Sinhoe-dong.

The backseat is dark, so it’s hard to see whether Heechan is looking out the window or sleeping with his head down. Of course, as usual, Dal-i is sleeping very well as long as he puts his head on it.

‘But I still have to talk about it.’

To get to the apartment complex, all you had to do was take the local road from the road around town. Since there was no car, Dawn drove slowly.

“country. “Why did you ask about Hwigyeongdae back then?”

“Uh, huh?! suddenly?”

Nara, who happened to be playing with a snow ball, was surprised and asked for no reason.

“Don’t pretend like you don’t know. “I know everything, Yuan helped you.”

“…How did that story come about?”

“Yuan said. I said I saw you before. “You remember him too, so what’s wrong with him not remembering you?”

“…Why don’t you say something? To my brother.”

A signal is given and it stops.

Dawn slightly relaxed her grip on the steering wheel and looked at Nara.

“No matter what I say, I have nothing to say.”

“But other people don’t know our situation. “How hard was it for us…”

“It’s something I regret too. As I said before, I am by your side now to undo all those mistakes.”

Above all, Seo Yuan is not one to open his mouth in this situation.

I don’t know him very well, but I can see that he has a quiet and cautious personality.

“…”

“I don’t want to wash the past anyway. So, don’t worry about what other people think about you, just build your relationships. “People who know our past will feel that we have changed a lot now.”

When I think about it, that’s right.

‘So did my friends. Have you become friends with your older brother? Wasn’t that the case in the past?’

If we could show change, it might not be something to be ashamed of.

“I see.”

“right?”

“…huh.”

While Nara and Dawn finished their story in a quiet car.

Heechan, who had heard the entire conversation from the backseat, was blinking as he watched the street lights passing by outside the window.

[Three messages 2]

“-?”

[Hyun Ha-ram]: [Today’s birthday party]

[Hyun Ha-ram]: [Did you have a good time? How was the reaction to the gift?]

Come to think of it, I didn’t talk to this person.

Heechan left a reply.

[Yoo Hee-chan]: [Thank you for your help]

[Yoo Hee-chan]: [ㅋ You’re going to come to the study cafe even after school starts, right?]

[Hyun Ha-ram]: [Of course]

[Hyeon Haram]: [There are about 5 problems I don’t know about. Come on quickly]

***

Just like that, Nara’s birthday has passed and it’s September.

The first day of school for the second semester has already arrived.

“Oppa, I’m coming!!!”

“Hyung, see you later.”

Dawn, holding a spatula in one hand and sending Nara and Heechan off in turn, frantically headed back to the kitchen.

“!”

Dawn rushed towards the frying pan that was on the verge of burning, making an ‘aaaah’ sound and putting the flipper between the egg and the pan.

Fortunately, the fried food that was flipped over was still golden brown. It doesn’t lose its shape and looks pretty.

Dawn put sliced ​​cheese and ham on the bread that popped out of the toaster and spread a layer of lettuce. Just add mayonnaise and ketchup once, and the early morning sandwich is complete.

“phew. Dal-i, let’s come out and eat!”

While Dal-i walks out and sits down at the table, cut the sandwiches into quarters and place a toothpick in the center of each sandwich to keep it intact.

Knowing such a sweet team makes me think that I am truly a housewife.

“It’s a sandwich.”

“Dal, eat it here with barley tea.”

“yes.”

After gulping down the barley tea, I checked the sandwich.

I was barely able to take a breath when my cell phone, which I had kept in my apron, buzzed.

“Yes, this is Yoo Saebyeok.”

He had said the name all of a sudden without even having time to check who was calling, but the voice of the person on the other end was unusually excited.

-Writer!!!

“Ah, Editor-in-Chief Ryu Hye-eun.”

-It’s really steep, slope!

“A blessing…?”

is expected to sell 300,000 copies by this week. Has it already surpassed 500,000 copies?

-Now, in the September issues of , , and , the author’s name is mentioned, no, the author’s work! The work is being introduced!!!

Dawn’s hand that was fluttering her apron stopped.

‘Literary world. Japan’s most famous fiction magazine. Hundred… I did a written interview there last time, but they didn’t cover anything unless it was a popular book. The New York Times Book Review… I don’t deal well with books from outside the same culture. At most once every few months.’

But, as expected, did it.

-That’s not the only thing that’s important! Both the New York Times Book Review and the literary world are curious about , another work by author Yoo Sae-byeok and a new work published only in Korea… wow, wow. That’s a really important point.

Ryu Hye-eun was so excited that she seemed to be out of breath.

-Ooh, come first. You can’t just ignore this!

“yes…?”

I know that all of these things are good ‘lucks’ like she said.

“Is there any other reason for me to go?”

-Ugh…

Ryu Hye-eun, suddenly speechless, hesitates.

-Well, I meant to celebrate together, but are you busy?

“ah.”

Of course, we should all toast together.

If such a major incident had occurred, it would be dawn that the postponed company dinner would have arrived.

“Then, I would like to ask you to translate , and how about I contact you to see if translator Seo’s physical ailment has improved?”

-It’s so good!!! Are we all meeting together today?!

“When something good like this happens, it’s hard not to encounter it.”

As you can tell just by hearing the sound, Luna Books is already buzzing behind Ryu Hye-eun.

Dawn hung up the phone and sat down in front of Dal.

“Why?”

Dal-i looked at the dawn with ketchup on his mouth.

Dawn said, wiping Dal’s mouth with a tissue.

“I thought I should go out and come back with the moon, too.”

***

Meanwhile, America’s .

A few people passed by the stand filled with .

An American woman picks one of them up, looks at it front and back, and unfolds it.

“…”

She tucks her messy hair behind her ear and opens the ‘Column of the Month’ section.

A powerful sentence printed in larger letters than other letters catches the eye.

[He breaks the world without hesitation. The fragments, they remain in our heads.

(He breaks the world without hesitation, and the fragments remain in our heads.)]

Who could receive such praise?

When a phrase in a column arouses curiosity, attention turns to the author.

“Yu, dawn?”

The awkward Korean pronunciation came out due to the language notation, but

[Yu Saebyeok]

Before I knew it, that name had crossed Korea and reached a distant country.

The woman raised her head. Under a sign that said , identical books were lined up in a row.

The name of the book was.
