The Crown Prince in the Mang Game is Good at Idols - Chapter 227

Episode 227
We woke up early in the morning to go to Jeonju.
Jeonju Hanok Village is known as Korea’s representative tourist attraction.
I’ve never been to Jeonju while living as Han Ji-hyeok. My family is a mess, so isn’t it funny that I’m going on a family trip with my family?
Thinking about it from this perspective, it seems like I’ve had a lot of new experiences since I took possession of the crown prince’s body.
“I think the most exciting moment is getting in the car before going on a trip!”
Yumin Ha, who got on the van, wiggled her butt with a look of great anticipation in her eyes.
But the aftereffects of the year-end schedule still lingered.
As soon as we passed the first toll gate, all the members except me went on a journey to dreamland.
‘Falling asleep so quickly is also an ability.’
Since I wasn’t particularly sleepy, I decided to go outside and look at the scenery.
On the way, I thought we might play a game at the rest stop this time, but fortunately or not, the manager said there wouldn’t be such an event today.
“Such sudden events are limited. Today is different content, so you can rest well until the end.”
Should I say that the public and private sectors are clear?
But I knew.
The planning department at Sigma Entertainment just wouldn’t give us any time to rest.
Since the ride there is comfortable, it is obvious that you will have a lot of fun when you arrive in Jeonju.
The car carrying us ran hard on the highway and arrived in Jeonju three hours later.
The members who slowly woke up from their sleep all said the same thing.
“I’m hungry… … .”
“I woke up and now I’m hungry.”
To the members who were desperately looking for food, Manager Hyung delivered the good news that he would go eat breakfast right after renting the hanbok.
Then, when we heard that they were going to rent hanbok, everyone’s thoughts about their hungry stomachs disappeared for a moment.
“Are you really going to choose a hanbok? Awesome.”
“Then, can we see our AI Charis again?”
“… … I am not an AI.”
The topic of conversation returned to me again.
While I was arguing against the term AI, I thought to myself that this kind of talk could easily come up.
A blonde Estonian wears traditional South Korean clothing.
It’s a topic that’s not easy to picture in your head.
As I entered the hanbok rental shop, numerous types of traditional costumes came into view.
First, we looked around at the hanbok and thought about it, as the staff asked us to tell them our preferred color.
“Isn’t this the safest color?”
When Chae Eun-gyu came in holding a sky blue hanbok, Kang Si-yoon shook his head as if he was not satisfied.
“It’s too plain. Since I’m going to wear it anyway, I think it might be a good idea to match it with something a little more unique.”
“Well, I’ve been wondering this for a while. Can’t we just wear regular clothes during Christmas too?”
“It’s not fun, it’s not fun!”
When Kang Si-yoon, who is crazy about broadcasting, made an illogical statement, Song Hyeong-bin cut him off and said in a tone that showed he had half given up.
“You can take care of the fun part. Sir, I’ll take care of the navy.”
“yes~.”
“Ahhh, bro! Is this really boring?”
“huh!”
Kang Si-yoon, who was completely ignored, acted like she was sobbing and grabbed my arm.
“Charis, how about we keep the concept alive?”
“Just like Hyungbin said, I don’t really want to join your plan.”
“No, this is a really good idea. Didn’t you see the comments on our Christmas special video?”
“Comments?”
You mean that video where they all dress up as Rudolph and sing carols together?
At that time, I clearly sang with a different colored nose instead of Rudolph’s red nose.
“Your fans told me that you look good in pink and mint. So I thought it would be nice to try wearing those colors this time, but you said you don’t want to participate in a meaningless plan. Are you really going to say that?”
“hmm…….”
“Does this mean that even celebrities are being denied?”
This guy is deadly. Are you going to include the fans in this and sell it?
I rested my chin on my hand and thought about it for a moment.
Now that I think about it, a pink hanbok might not seem so strange… … .
‘Yeah, it’s not a bad idea to try something new once in a while.’
When I asked the staff if they had any pink in stock, Kang Si-yoon gave me a thumbs up.
“There is no one else but you!”
“… … Just this one time.”
“He’s just tsundere, tsundere.”
After carefully trying on the hanbok brought by the staff.
Perhaps it was because of the SSS appearance stat, but I felt like it suited them very well.
The members who were waiting outside, each wearing the hanbok they had chosen, collectively gave a small exclamation of admiration when they saw me.
“oh…….”
“and…….”
“Does this look like computer graphics again?”
“How did you know? Let me just touch it once.”
Chae Eun-gyu was really surprised and shook my shoulder.
“It feels like something that seems a bit impossible has come true? Even the color pink goes well with it, why does it match so well?”
“Brother Charis is a foul, foul. Honestly, he looks good in anything he wears.”
“haha…….”
Does this level of reaction mean I pass?
Finally, Kang Si-yoon appeared with a majestic presence, her gray hanbok fluttering in the wind.
“Ahem! Come here!”
The way he speaks reminds me of a nobleman from a historical drama. Is he already absorbed in role-playing?
No, more than that.
“Hey, why did you pick the normal one?”
“Everyone said they would pick something boring and safe, so I just picked this.”
Song Hyeong-bin opened his eyes slightly after seeing Kang Si-yoon’s very ordinary choice of hanbok.
“You, if we picked something funny, you were going to pick out some decent clothes by yourself, right? Be honest.”
“Oh, I didn’t think about that! I have a conscience too~.”
Contrary to his negative remarks, Kang Si-yoon was laughing heartily.
No matter how you look at it, it seems like he had some dark intentions inside.
Before Song Hyeong-bin could ask any more questions, Kang Si-yoon shouted in a nobleman’s tone even louder than before as he walked out of the rental store.
“As expected, the weather is really nice when I go out! What a blessing, what a blessing.”
“Please, Siyoon. Can you stop using that weird tone of speech?”
“Oh my! How impertinent!”
Kang Si-yoon’s show time, which no one asked for, has started again.
Now that they no longer had the strength to stop him, they all pretended not to see Kang Si-yoon and listened to Manager Hyung’s announcement.
“Everyone said they were really hungry, so should we go to a restaurant quickly?”
“yes!”
“That’s a given!”
“That, that’s why. Today’s menu for breakfast is tteokgalbi, one of the foods you must eat when you come to Jeonju.”
Manager Hyung almost burst out laughing in the middle, but barely managed to hold it back.
The menu itself was very good. It was all the members’ favorite meat, and it was tteokgalbi, one of Jeonju’s specialties.
Everyone went to the restaurant in a happy atmosphere, but while sitting at the table and waiting for the food, the manager added something meaningful.
“You’d better eat a lot now. This might be your last meal today.”
“yes?”
“Last meal?”
“Hey, stop kidding. It’s only 10:30 and this is the last one.”
We immediately got angry and retorted that he was joking, but the manager just smiled with the corners of his lips twitching.
The tteokgalbi was excellent. It was juicy and had a smoky flavor, so it was really delicious.
As I quickly finished a bowl of rice and ordered another, Yu Min-ha looked at me with a look of surprise.
“Just in case. I plan to eat as much as I can.”
“Do you think what Changmin hyung said is true, hyung?”
“I have a bad feeling about this.”
“Listening to you, hyung, I feel like I need to eat more too.”
I think the members are reacting this way because they know that my intuition is quite developed in this area.
When Yoo Min-ha followed me and ordered an extra bowl of rice, Song Hyeong-bin laughed loudly.
“Guys, you don’t have to take it so seriously. It doesn’t make sense to starve us. You don’t have to worry.”
“Well, but there is nothing unconditional in this world.”
“If you force yourself to eat too much, you’ll get sick.”
The other members seemed to have the same thoughts as Song Hyeong-bin.
In the end, Yumin Ha and I filled our stomachs to the max.
‘I don’t know why they say this could be our last meal, but it definitely doesn’t feel good.’
A thought that I had since early morning.
Obviously, the planning department that produces our own content doesn’t give us time to rest so easily.
If so, there is almost a 100% chance that a difficult game will come out later, or that there will be a brutal punishment prepared.
The hanok where we spent the night was located not far from the restaurant.
An old-fashioned visual that conveys Korean sentiment.
As I entered the wide yard wearing hanbok, I really felt like I was in the Joseon Dynasty.
After confirming that everything was ready, Manager Hyung finally began to explain the main content of this content.
“Do you remember I gave you a rough outline a few days ago?”
“Oh, I definitely said I was doing something related to status back then.”
“That’s right. Today, the concept is that you go back to the time when your ancestors lived. Then, of course, you have to have a status and job that fits that era. All roles are chosen randomly. Let’s take a look at what they are.”
Manager Hyung held up a panel with pictures and instructions.
“The first job is Yangban. It is the highest status among the jobs that are introduced today. There are no restrictions. Members who are selected as Yangban can command other people as they wish for the day. It is absolute power. Only one person can be in this position.”
“Absolute power… … ?”
“Wow, so does that mean everyone here who is a nobleman can use them however they want?”
“That’s what I mean.”
A nobleman who holds all power.
There is not a single member who would turn down this position.
Kang Si-yoon was already jumping up and down in excitement.
“Then! Then, if I fall for the nobleman, I can use Lord Charis however I want, no problem? Do I understand correctly?”
“Yes.”
“I will definitely get that gentleman’s seat!”
Kang Si-yoon, who is still immersed in the historical drama dialect, firmly strengthened his will.
It seems that my goal is still the same today.
Since I couldn’t just sit back and let this happen, I nodded resolutely.
“If I get caught by a nobleman, I will thoroughly control Kang Si-yoon from beginning to end.”
“Okay, okay! Let’s see who wins!”
“Okay, okay. The second job is, of course. A noblewoman. As expected, it’s a job with only one position.”
A noblewoman? What kind of novel idea is that?
“Of all the jobs appearing today, this is the only female. The member who is chosen for this role must take off her hanbok and change into the women’s costume we have prepared. Of course, she must also wear a wig.”
“Hey, you want me to dress up as a woman?”
“Yes. Of course, there are many benefits. You can have almost the same position as a nobleman, so you can command people other than noblemen. The only disadvantage is that you have to dress up as a woman.”
Yeah, I guess cross-dressing is a bit much, but the power is still overwhelming.
Even if I don’t become a nobleman, if I win that, I can use Kang Si-yoon to my heart’s content.
“Next are the commoners. They are really quite ordinary. They are neither the lowest nor the highest. They must listen to the nobles and their wives, but if they do not like the orders, they can ask someone below them to do them. There are three of them.”
“That means―”
“Yes, the last role is slave. The remaining two will be reduced to the lowest status, slaves, today. As everyone expected, they are roles that cannot go against the power of the nobles and commoners and must obey absolutely.”
It’s finally here.
This is something you absolutely must not get caught up in in this game.
A truly miserable slave who is forced to run all the errands for others as a person of the lowest status.
Everyone was thinking the same thing.
“Let’s just avoid real slaves.”
“I don’t want to be a nobleman, so please, I don’t want to be a slave, please.”
“… … I definitely want to avoid slaves.”
There is no place to retreat. If you don’t want to see the bad side of things, you have to survive by sacrificing others.
But here, Manager Hyung introduced one special rule.
“However, there is still a chance for slaves to turn things around. Today, you can collect ‘coins’ that are paid out through games and try to turn things around. If you collect 10 coins, you can spin the job selection roulette. If you win a higher status than your previous status in the roulette, you can obtain that status. In short, it means that slaves can become nobles by spinning the roulette.”
It’s literally a complete reversal.
It is possible to rise from the lowest status, a slave, to the rank of nobleman in one go.
It’s a little reassuring to have this opportunity, but it’s still ideal to get a decent job from the start.
“Then, I will start picking now!”
