Miru's Web Novel Translations

  TL by Miru I'm a Genius Idol but My Passive is Sunfish: Episode 77 Assistant Manager Na, a hapless office worker with enough money but no time to fly to Hong Kong, had missed the chance to see the awards show in person. Instead, after clocking out for the day, Baepsae popped open a beer and settled in to watch the ceremony’s live broadcast on a cable channel. //TLN: Baepsae is the fan previously translated as Sparrow but I decided to change it to avoid confusion since Baekya is also known as a sparrow. “Those can’t all be Hong Kong locals.” The fan section shown on screen was packed, not a single seat left empty. Judging by the deafening cheers every time AIM, Boy’s Universe, or Rose Day appeared, at least half the crowd had to be Korean. “So why on earth are they doing this in Hong Kong, anyway?” Her ultimate bias—who never had a day where he didn’t look fantastic—was somehow even more heartbreakingly beautiful tonight, leaving her with a serious case of FOMO. ...

As soon as the first verse and chorus of ‘WANT ME’ finished, a new sound kicked in, transforming the track’s atmosphere completely.   ♬♪♩♬♪♬♪♩   The orchestration of ‘No Games’ began to play, allowing Baekya’s vibrato to shine once more. At that moment, the waiting dancers rushed onto the stage, momentarily obscuring DASE from view. Then, as the dancers lowered themselves, DASE reappeared, tossing aside their capes. They were now dressed in a billowing chiffon shirt accented with a jewelled brooch—the cute, playful vibe from just moments before had vanished without a trace.   — Shuffle mix, shuffle the cards Our game has begun.   The fairy-tale castle, once so enchanting, now lay shrouded in scarlet rose vines under the night sky.

If anything, it’d be because we all need to improve as a team.” “It’s not that simple for me.” “Oh, really? I didn’t know you cared so much about awards.” “Cut it out.” Yulmu teasingly scratched under Baekya’s chin. “Is our Baekya secretly an ambitious type?” Yulmu cooed in a baby voice. “I said stop it— sigh... Are you trying to get smacked?” “Ack!” Even after two warnings, Yulmu refused to stop, earning himself a well-deserved hit before finally backing off. Watching quietly from the sidelines, Minsung clicked his tongue in disapproval. “Some people just don’t learn, huh?” At that moment, Jihan, who had been observing Baekya closely, spoke up.

Who teased our peach, huh?! This is why you shouldn’t make it obvious it’s your first time on a plane, sweetie ㅠㅠ └ I wondered why Baekya was wearing Yuyeon’s cap when they got off, but it turns out our peach was embarrassed so he gave it to him (sobs).   The moment the post was being read, the tweet in question was rapidly being shared. The comments were on the verge of being flooded with photos of Yuyeon and Baekya, one wearing the violet cap in question.   - I found the brand! N-brand Violet Ball Cap, 35,000 won.
