Apologize!!
International supermodel? Jungkook had never thought that far.... He simply wanted to focus on the present to make Jaehyun and Minho face their consequences....
Just before the meeting at JJE, Jaehyun, who hadn't had lunch with Jungkook for a long time, suddenly decided to take him out to the fancy restaurant downstairs.... He even booked a table and organized a candle lit lunch....
Looking at the roses paired with the candles, Jungkook had no reaction. He sat down as Jaehyun pulled out his chair....
Jaehyun
I have ordered your favorite Galbi (갈비)...
Author
Galbi (갈비): Made with beef short ribs, this is one of the most famous Korean barbecue dishes.... The ribs are often thinly sliced, either butterflied to create one long flap of meat or cut "flanken-style" across the bone....
Jungkook was surprised for a moment no, he was speechless....
It turned out, even after 5 years of being together, Jaehyun still did not know what he liked.... 😞
Jaehyun
What is it? You don't like it?? 🤔
Just as he was about to respond, the chef appeared beside them holding a tray. He turned to Jungkook....
Unimportant
Chef: Mr Jeon, today, we have your favorite Bulgogi (불고기)....
I would like to congratulate you on the behalf of The Fire pot Restaurant of your wedding...
Author
Bulgogi (불고기): Thinly sliced, marinated meat that is grilled on a barbecue.... Also known as Fire meat....
Upon hearing this, Jaehyun's expression changed, but he was too embarrassed to say anything.... He just quietly replaced Jungkook's plate....
Jaehyun
Your tastes have changed?? 😅
Jungkook
Thank you, but we aren't married yet!!! 😐
Jungkook quickly explain the chef!!...
Jungkook
💭 You sure are attentive hyungie... I only mentioned it once, and you remembered...
The chef politely left, and he turned back towards Jaehyun....
Jaehyun
Next time I will definitely remember what you like to eat!.... 😅
Jaehyun
Hurry, let's eat.... We still need to go back and discuss the script...
Jungkook sneered on the inside but kept his composure...
At this moment... he received an SMS titled '0902'....
When he opened it up, he realized it was a message from Taehyung, 09 Feb, was yesterday, the date of their wedding....
Taehyung
📩 The steak is from me.... What the chef meant was congratulations on our wedding... 😉
Jungkook let out a laugh and sent a response from under the table...
Jungkook
📩 How did you know where I would be?? 😗😗
Taehyung
📩 I have a way of finding out what I want to know!! 😉
He held onto his phone as he glanced around the restaurant... However, Taehyung was nowhere in sight. Although he didn't know how he managed to organize something so thoughtful, he could sense Taehyung was nearby..... he had a presence like a king that no one could ignore or deny... 😌😌
Jaehyun
What are you looking at?? 🤔
Jungkook
Oh, it's nothing..... And Jaehyun when will we go back to register our marriage??? 😏😏😏
Jaehyun
After all this has settled... You do realize the upcoming The Sil-luet Awards would be Minho's opportunity to advance in his career.....
Jungkook, he is lucky to have you...otherwise, he would have been ruined this time...
Jungkook
I will help you get back what you deserve..... 😏😏
Jungkook smiled softly, his dimple made her appear even more beautiful...
However, Jaehyun, at present, didn't notice him at all.... His heart was already bewitched by years of bedside seduction from Minho....
So, he had no idea Jungkook's words had a hidden meaning...
Jaehyun
Jungkook, you have suffered!! 😐
He knew, for all that he was about to do, today's lunch was just a little reward.... However, this reward was all a ploy to mask his true intentions....
Jaehyun
Also, after the press conference, get in contact with your manager. In order to deal with him, it looks like we have to use a legal approach... 😠
He smiled sweetly... However, there was no way he was going to let him touch Soobin...
Inside BS's main hall, reporters from all forms of media were gathered.... They were all interested in what Jungkook had to say.... Everyone had questions for him, ranging from why he suddenly retreated from the public eye to why he signed on to BS to what really happened to him substituting Minho.... Ever since he retreated, he had kept a low-profile.... It was hard to find anything bad about him.... Today, was the perfect opportunity for them...
Dressed in plain clothes,
Jungkook appeared with bodyguards by his side... he slowly walked onto the stage and turned around to face the crowd.... The reporters fought to be the first to question him....
Unimportant
Reporter 1: Mr Jeon, your name is number one in search rankings, and it continues to stay up there.... Did you pay for that position??
Reporter 2: Mr Jeon, you and Minho are both models of JJ Entertainment, but, in recent years, only he has been in the limelight... Have you been frozen by the company, so you were envious of his fame??....
Reporter 3: Mr Jeon, did you create this mess for hype??...
Facing the chaotic scene, the company's staff quickly stepped out to hold back the reporters, putting everything back in control....
Finally, Jungkook was allowed to speak.....
Jungkook
First, I want to apologize to everyone for giving the company a damaged reputation and causing everyone to question Mr Lee Minho's integrity...
At the HF's Crown Star Show, I made the decision myself, unknown to my company and Minho, to appear on stage....
Jungkook
Everything that has happened has nothing to do with my company, JJE nor Mr Lee Minho....
I was indeed trying to create hype! But, my manager has nothing to do with it, he was merely being used by me.... I have decided to take on all the responsibility.... Thank you for your patience, Thank you!!
{Bow respectfully}
After he spoke, the hall was in an uproar... The reporters weren't at ease... they had never seen a celebrity admit to their wrong doings so easily and in such a straight forward manner....
Other people would have tried to avoid the situation, but he had taken on all the blame, claiming it had nothing to do with his manager, company or Minho.....
Jungkook thought with that, everything was over. But, unexpectedly, Jaehyun had prepared something else.... In order to confirm that he was an attention seeker, he allowed the artists' director to approach Jungkook and face the media...
Unimportant
AD: This was not the first time Mr Jeon has done something like this... But the company and I will give him one last chance. Jungkook, I hope you can learn from your mistakes and not step over the line again....
Not the first time the purpose of those words were to obviously push back Soobin's claims.... Now it seemed, every time he had substituted Minho in the past, was to create hype for himself... '
Jungkook
💭 Jeong Jaehyun you are ruthless!.. 😡😡
Jungkook remained silent as he already gave an apologetic bow to the media... Then, with the protection of the company's staff, he was escorted out of the main hall... In an instant, the netizens were filled with hate...
Since he had admitted everything outright, the public only saw what was on the surface and were filled with anger...
Even the staff at Kim Entertainment treated the matter like a laughingstock. Coming out of a meeting, Taehyung overheard his staffs discussions...
He turned to look at his assistant who quickly revealed what had happened at the press conference today...
Yeonjun (Tae's assistant)
President, do you want to do something to assist Mr Jeon?
Taehyung
Not just yet, I want to see how he will deal with it himself... ❄️
He had already mentioned before that he was curious how he would react.... Because he had helped him the last two times, he wanted to see how he would resolve this issue himself.
As his wife, was he really going to let something like this discourage him.....
Regardless of everything else, the fact that Jungkook stepped out and admitted to creating the mess, wiped JJE's reputation completely clean....
Discussions with HF were successful as they accepted Jaehyun's apology and the position of spokesperson was handed over to Minho, as originally intended, since he was also a victim....
After this incident, his popularity was expected to skyrocket. JJ Entertainment and Minho recovered from the incident completely unscathed, but Jungkook was completely destroyed....
In an instant, 'King of Hype', 'Scheming Model' and other similar terms started appearing on search rankings and all the search results led to discussions filled with offensive language...
Jungkook sat in his resting room watching the news. He tried his best to remain calm because she knew, all that he was enduring now would soon be turned on it's head.
Jeong Jaehyun and Lee Minho will be going to suffer ten times more than what he was experiencing now!...
However, at present, in the eyes of the public, his image had completely crumbled... Even the cleaner couldn't help giving him attitude...
Unimportant
Cleaner: Mr Jeon, could you please move your precious legs? Can't you see I'm trying to clean here?.... It's not like you have a show to attend, yet you still come in every day... My back hurts from having to clean up after you... 😠😠
Jungkook's expression turned cold. Even though he had fallen to a low point in his career, it didn't mean he was going to allow just anyone to bully him..... So he picked up his phone and rang Jaehyun making sure to put the call on loudspeaker, so the cleaner could hear their conversation...
Jungkook
Jaehyun is my position in this company so low that I deserve to be spoken down to, even by the cleaner? 😡😡
Jaehyun
Get her name and tell HR to dismiss her!!
He hung up the phone and looked up at the cleaner with a cold gaze...
Jungkook
Just because I'm easy going, doesn't mean you can talk to me casually. Just because I'm not a model, doesn't mean I'm no longer a member of the Jeon Family. If I wanted to, I could make a simple cleaner like you unemployed forever, without lifting a finger... ❄️❄️
The cleaner's face turned pale as she broke out in a cold sweat. She never knew Jungkook could be so intimidating.... She quickly bowed apologetically...
Unimportant
Cleaner: Joesonghamnida (죄송합니다) Mr Jeon, I won't ever do it again... 😥😥
Jungkook
Even if you are above others, you should treat others equally... Not to mention the fact that you are below others... ❄️❄️
Jungkook didn't want to make things difficult for the staff, but he had to teach them a lesson...
After speaking, he stood up soon received an SMS from Jaehyun to go to his office....
Jaehyun
Jungkook, your image right now has fallen to the depths of the abyss so... I have arranged for you to take part in some activities....
Hopefully, you can redeem yourself in front of the public.... Isn't Minho hurt? Why don't you go pay him a visit, and take care of him to show you're sorry and maybe you can get some sympathy votes...
He examined Jaehyun's face and questioned why he had never noticed how disgraceful he looked....
Minho was obviously using this opportunity to humiliate him..... Yet, Jaehyun had actually suggested him go take care of him... 😡😡
Jaehyun
You just need to put on a show in front the cameras for a few minutes as the footage gets broadcasted live....
Jaehyun originally thought Jungkook would refuse... Minho had used his child as leverage against him in order to make him ask Jungkook for such an unreasonable request.... But, he unexpectedly nodded in agreement...
Jaehyun
You're willing to do it?? 🤔🤔
Jungkook
Ever since Minho got hurt, I haven't had the chance to visit him ... This is the perfect chance to see him..... 😏
Jaehyun
In that case, I'll find some people to escort you out of here... there area whole heaps of reporters outside...
He remained calm and collected even though he was aware Minho's plan was to torment him.... he knew the more high and mighty Minho felt now, the harder he would fall...
The person to laugh at the end was still to be determined... Not long after, she boarded the car of Jaehyun's assistant and headed towards Seoul City hospital....
On the way, he messaged Taehyung!!
Jungkook
📩 Hyung, do not be worried by any news you see about me, I have a plan.... Also, I want to return home tonight, can you send someone to pick me up from Seoul City hospital? I don't know where our new home is??.. 😗😗
In the middle of a meeting, Taehyung received Jungkook's message.... For the first time ever, he paused what he was doing, causing all the company's higher-ups to look at each other in surprise...
What kind of god like person has such influence?... He ignored the reactions of those around him, all he could focus on was Jungkook's pitiful tone... He quickly replied to his message...
Taehyung
📩 Good boy, I will pick you up later!! 😌☺️
After receiving Taehyung's message, he couldn't help but imagine his expression as he called him a 'good boy'... A sweet smile appeared on his face and his doe eyes curved like two crescent moons....
At this moment, Jaehyun's assistant looked at him from his rearview mirror...
Unimportant
Jaehyun's Assistant: You can still smile now, but wait till you find out what's coming to you.... 😠
Jungkook knew the whole world was currently hostile towards him, but he forced herself to not care about what others thought.... After contacting Taehyung, he sent a message to Soobin....
Jungkook
📩 Soobin, Jaehyun has arranged for me to go take care of Minho at the hospital. I am almost there, are you ready??
Soobin (Jk's assistant)
Anyone perceptive enough would be able to tell, that mistress is using this as an opportunity to humiliate you. Does he think he will be able to do that? I have been ready a long time ago, I'm sure the public will be entertained...I have pictures and a video!! 😌
Jungkook
You can release the pictures...keep the video for later. I want to give them some time to argue... 😏
Soobin (Jk's assistant)
I understand. We should wait for the right time. When they are at their worst, I will release the video and seal the deal.... 😌😌😏😏
Soobin (Jk's assistant)
I want Minho to fall when he is at his highest point. Jungkook, even though there are so many people insulting you, I noticed there are still the small minority that are sticking up for you. I guess there is some good that has come from all this...
Jungkook
Soobin-ah, Please be careful hm!
After his messages with Soobin, he immediately deleted his entire conversation as the corner of his lips curved slightly upwards.... 😏
Inside one of the private hospital rooms, Minho was sitting weakly in bed. Just the thought of being able to humiliate Jungkook in a moment made his eyes twinkle. Never in his wildest dreams had he thought Jungkook would be so stupid as to take on all the blame. Not only did he increase his worth, he also helped him secure the spokesperson deal with HF....
Minho's Assistant
Minho, Jungkook is almost here. When he arrives the cameras will turn on, and you will be broadcasted live for 3 minutes. In a moment, I am going to ask the doctor to come in to change your bandages. At the same time, I'm going to make him wash your feet... 😆😆
Minho
This day has finally arrived!! 😀
He had been overshadowed by Jungkook for so long... From this point on, he vowed to only keep climbing higher and higher...
He was going to step all over Jungkook, take Jaehyun from him and become the first man of JJE...
Minho's Assistant
From now on, things will only get better for you. Plus, The Sil-luet Awards are about to make their selection, I'm sure you will be selected... At that time...you will be one step closer to becoming a top model...
Minho slowly exposed traces of a smile, this was better than anything he had ever dreamed of.... With everything going his way, his arrogance began to grow...
The hospital gave off it's usual unpleasant smell... Jungkook entered the hospital, escorted by Jaehyun's assistant, he was all alone without a single assistant of his own to support him....
After finding Minho's room, he could see Minho's assistant guarding the door. This was the man that claimed he made all the decisions on his own on the day of the show. He had thrown all the blame on him....
Minho's Assistant
You're here!!
He looked at Jungkook up and down snobbishly; he was deliberately trying to make things difficult for him....
Minho's Assistant
Just wait here, Minho is still resting!!
Jungkook
Do you know my surname?? ❄️
Minho's Assistant
Nonsense! Who doesn't know your surname is Jeon!!...
Jungkook
Since you know my surname is Jeon, then you should be aware of my family background... How dare a little assistant like you act arrogantly in front of me... ❄️❄️
Minho's Assistant
I-I... 😰
Minho
Is that Jungkook, please send him inside...
Minho heard his voice outside and felt disappointed at his assistant's stupidity. If he wanted to go against Jungkook, this was not the right way....
After all, he still had the Jeon family behind him even though they no longer paid as much attention to him as they once did when he was still famous....
He held his head high and walked into the room ignoring the angry assistant.... Seeing Minho sitting on the bed acting pitiful with one injured leg, he smiled...
Jungkook
Minho-ssi, Are you ok? 😑
He knew Minho had intentionally hurt his own leg in order to prevent Jaehyun from getting married, this ore is so ruthless... 😡
Minho
I heard from President Jeong that we are to film a 3-minute live broadcast, is that right? Jungkook, we are like brothers, I'm more than willing to help you with this favor, so you can redeem yourself in front of the public... 🙂
Jungkook hesitated for a moment as he couldn't believe how shameless Minho was, he was almost on the same level as Jaehyun....
The truth behind the substitution incident was known between the three of them, yet Minho acted like nothing had happened. He looked a little upset as he said in an angry tone...
Jungkook
I only came to visit you.... 😐
Minho
You really don't need to be polite... ☺️
Minho's Assistant
That's right, we've already prepared a scene for you. In a moment, the doctor will come in to change Minho's bandages. At that time, in order to highlight your sincerity, we have arranged for you to wash his feet.... That way the public will see how sorry you are... 😏😏
Jungkook
Gamanhae... (그만해) Stop!! That's enough!!! 😠😠
Jungkook
Minho the substitution incident, both you and I know the truth. Don't you think it's time you should stop?
Minho
Jungkook, what are you talking about? I don't understand??
Jungkook
Must you really flip what's right and wrong around?? 😞😞
If it was not for Jaehyun, I would not tolerate you so many times. Have I not helped you enough?? 😞
Minho
Jungkook, it's enough that you won't apologize, must you also bad-mouth other people? You've already admitted to creating everything for hype...
Minho was a master of acting, he didn't slip on his words and maintained his innocence...
Jungkook
I definitely won't apologize to you!!! 😠
At this time, Minho's assistant recorded his words and immediately posted the video online, with the headline: Attention seeker being insincere, secretly declares: 'I definitely won't apologize to you!'...
In an instant, a thousand waves were once again stirred up...ready to crash down onto Jungkook.
Reporters flocked to the scene, but no one intercepted Jungkook, leaving Minho all alone crying pitifully in front of the camera....
Minho
Originally I thought, since we were both models, I wasn't going to pursue this incident, but Jungkook has gone too far. Not only did he refuse to apologize, he also threw words of abuse... 😭
That's how the war between the two began: two models that didn't know how to control themselves in front of the public, put on a tearful drama drawing the attention of passer-by to stop and crowd around. JJE quickly responded by releasing a statement, apologizing to the public and stating their intention to seriously deal with Jungkook, giving off the idea that they were going to dismiss him....
At the same time, Jungkook's: "I definitely won't apologize to you" became a viral phrase online.
Just as everyone was insulting him, a famous online personality released an album of photos.
The album was titled: "It's not that he won't apologize, it's that he shouldn't apologize".... The album was filled with photos of Minho and Jaehyun embracing each other....
In the photos, Minho and Jaehyun were both in the hospital. Jaehyun was on top of Minho while he was still wearing her hospital gown...
All the netizens' eyes lit up in shock as a famous website also responded by demanding in a post: [Reveal the truth behind the Jungkook substitution incident]...
The post included all the fine details of the incident, using the fact that Minho and Jaehyun, they were cheating to set the tone.
It provided a clear analysis of how Jungkook was forced to compromise, then led to being suppressed and finally pushed into reacting angrily...
For the sake of love, he was forced to take all the blame. At the same time, his fiancé's mistress was making advances and humiliating him....
Like this, the scandal was uncovered. Jaehyun, and Minho's intimate photos spread everywhere and the netizens finally discovered, apart from the substitute incident, there wasn't a single piece of bad news about Jungkook floating around....
Even searching as far back as three years, all they could find were pictures of his modeling on stage - as beautiful and confident as ever....
This Ore, who gave up his career for love, never tried to explain himself even once.... Even after the recent incident, he immediately stood out and took on full responsibility..... "Dear god, everyone has misunderstood him"...
Lee Minho really knows how to act. Who would have thought JJE would suppress such a poor ore... The tables had once again turned... Countless people online started to feel guilty for having previously judged Jungkook, their feelings for him quickly turned from dark to light. While all this was happening, Minho was in the middle of an interview...
Minho
I no longer know how to evaluate his shamelessness... 😓😓
The reporter was consumed at the moment when her workmate suddenly pulled out his phone to show her something.... After seeing the photos, the reporter held up the phone and questioned Minho....
Unimportant
Reporter: Mr Lee, Are these photos real??
Unimportant
Reporter: These are intimate photos of you and the CEO of JJE Jaehyun... Do you want me to go into more detail about what you are doing in the photos exactly?? 🤨🤨
Minho froze, just a moment ago he was still crying in front of the camera acting all pitiful... Now, he had suddenly turned into a mistress that had seduced someone else's boyfriend. In their eyes, he was no different from the new models that were selling themselves to move up in the industry. Most importantly, he couldn't find any words to stick up for himself.... The reporters felt embarrassed for him...
Unimportant
Reporter: So, these photos are real, I suppose. On one side you were crying, while on the other, you were stealing someone else's boyfriend..
Unimportant
Reporter: The photos are so obvious, don't tell me you still want to deny it...
Minho
No, it's all fake...this is all part of Jungkook's plans.... Don't film anymore, get out, I don't want to be interviewed anymore, go!... 😠😠
Unimportant
Reporter: hmph, Mr Lee, even though we are all used to being in the entertainment industry, I still have to tell you this... God will punish those that have bad intentions -there is justice in this world...
Just by Jungkook's actions of stepping out and putting all the blame on himself, from now on, I will no longer write anything bad about him.... 😑😑
Minho was trembling in fear. As soon as the reporters left, he made a phone call to Jaehyun...
Minho
📞 Jae, have you seen the photos? What should we do?
Jaehyun
📞 It's just photos, what are you panicking about? The company is currently working on a solution!!
He wasn't as calm as he appeared. By exposing everything, not only would it effect Minho's future as well as JJE's, but it could also cause him to lose Jungkook forever. After all, he had suppressed her and cheated on him... .
