The Trashy Pd Has To Survive As an Idol: 문찐 [129+]

Chapter 129

Paparazzi Kim Jaeyeon was enjoying peaceful days.
Following Min Jiheon, who gained global fame beyond the Hallyu wave with "Take My Camera" on OTT platforms, except to me yielded nothing but frustration.

'How can someone be like that?'

Min Jiheon's routine involved crazy eating, helping struggling staff, switching from hearty laughs to intense acting. Home, studio, home, office, home, restaurant, restaurant, home... That was the routine.

'A true genius. That's why I should feed him the "daepasong" (large green onion)'

Recently, the rising star emerged from Daepaseong, and it was none other than TheDawn. Unexpectedly grabbing attention, No it was Seo Hoyun who grabbed The Dawn from the collar.

'...How can someone be like this too?'

Kim Jaeyeon sipped his hot Americano, contemplating the phone in his hand. An idol, or simply an ordinary person, wouldn't associate with paparazzi. Still, the image of Seo Hoyun, smiling with XX Construction in mind, made him shiver.

So, Kim Jaeyeon considered assisting Seo Hoyun with the deal he wanted. It wasn't a loss, after all.

"Photos of Yoon Heeun at the hotel?"

[Yes.]

What do you want to do with them?

Peeling his eyes from the phone screen, Kim Jaeyeon scratched his head before speaking again.

"Well, Seo Hoyun, it's all good, but usually, two people don't enter that kind of situation together. Besides, even if you have such photos, it's tough to expose someone with a conglomerate background, and there's a risk of backlash... unless you're trying to squeeze money from the conglomerate."

[Oh, you're worried about that too?]

"...."

[Don't worry; I'm not doing this to extort money.]

Seo Hoyun quickly dismissed any concerns about her intentions, leaving Kim Jaeyeon to focus on the task at hand.

Sorting out Seo Hoyun's words with pen and notepad in hand, Kim Jaeyeon felt a growing chill down his spine.

And for good reason...

"...Did you work as a paparazzo before becoming an idol?"

[Crossing the line, aren't you?]

His methods were no different from those of a professional paparazzo.

1. Match unofficial schedules and fan sightings to find free-floating time.
2. Select upscale hotels in the metropolitan area with tight security, cross-referencing Yoon Heeun's schedule locations and home with hotel lists to estimate a convenient location.
3. During free schedule time, go to the estimated location, lurk, and find a confirmed spot. If unable to confirm the location, repeat the process by cross-referencing the target's home and hotel lists.

It might take time, but it wasn't as difficult as he initially thought. However...

... for a 23-year-old idol to give these methods that weren't that easy to conceive.

'He's really something.'

Kim Jaeyeon gently ran his hand over his arm.

"It might take some time, you know?"

[Yes, I'll accumulate it slowly anyway... Ah!!]

'...What is it?'

Throughout the call, Seo Hoyun, with a deep and consistent voice, suddenly added something as if he had recalled it urgently.
