Chapter 462 June’s Acting Debut

?”Everyone’s going crazy on Navel because of you,” Akira said as June placed the fried eggs on the table.

June vowed to cook for his members only that one time, but they practically glued his shoes to the kitchen to get June to cook them breakfast.

They insisted they had to taste June’s cooking once again after the scrumptious dinner he prepared yesterday.

It was against his will since the company served breakfast for the employees in the cafeteria, yet the other members insisted it tasted like cardboard and bathwater. In the end, June felt like he had no choice but to whip up a simple breakfast for the group.

“Why is that?” June asked, settling in his seat.

Akira passed him his phone, his spoon already in his mouth.

June took the phone from Akira, his eyebrows raising in surprise when he saw the article posted by MinMin. Then, he became even more surprised when he saw the headline of the article.

“You look surprised,” Akira noticed. “Weren’t you informed that it was going to be revealed today?”

June tilted his head to the side in surprise.

“No,” he said, clicking on the article to finally read its contents.

‘EVE’s June Dives into Acting – Love, Rivalry, and Laughter Await in ‘Hate To Love You’ Adaptation!’

Greetings, K-pop enthusiasts and drama aficionados! Grab your popcorn and prepare to be enchanted because our favorite rising idol, June from the rookie group EVE, is set to make his debut in the acting world. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent s Noᴠlꜰire.nt

If you’ve been living under a rock or too busy belting out EVE’s chart-topping hits, let me fill you in on the latest gossip that’s hotter than a cup of ramen in a K-drama: June is taking a plunge into the world of acting!

So, what’s the scoop? Well, our dear June recently faced the ultimate acting challenge on the notorious show ‘King of Kings.’ Despite the funny failures of his colleagues, June showed a performance that didn’t disappoint.

In fact, it did just the opposite. Even Director Nana, the director behind hit live-action webtoon adaptations like ‘Fake Beauty’ and ‘The Lord of High School’ took an interest in the rookie idol’s acting. In an exclusive interview, she revealed that she personally contacted the company to cast June for the infamous romance webtoon, ‘Hate To Love You.’

Now, if you’re not familiar with the webtoon, let me give you the lowdown. ‘Hate To Love You’ employs the classic enemies-to-lovers trope. Picture this: high school, academic rivalry, and two characters at each other’s throats. But wait, there’s a twist! As the story unfolds, they realize they’re more similar than they thought despite their contrasting social statuses. Cue the awws, the laughter, and maybe a tear or two.

Director Nana, known for her knack for turning webtoons into small-screen gold, has chosen ‘Hate To Love You’ as her next conquest. And who better to bring the main character, Jin, to life than our very own June?

That’s right–June will be gracing our screens as the heartthrob Jin, ready to steal not just his on-screen counterpart’s heart but ours, too.

Now, the burning question is: would you tune in? Of course you would! It’s like asking if you’d decline an invitation to a free K-pop concert.

And here’s another exclusive scoop. Mark your calendars and set your alarms because the cast of ‘Hate To Love You’ is going to have their very first press conference on February 25th!

– It’s still too early for June to be acting in romance dramas. I don’t think I can take it.

– June’s mine! Please, no kissing scene.

– Guys, he’s a grown man. He can kiss whoever he likes.

– Gosh, the drama hasn’t even started, but the delusional fans are already at it.

– I’m so happy June can show off his new talent! I knew he was special when I saw his acting challenge on King of Kings.

June’s eyes widened as he read the last statement.

That, too, was foreign news to him.

“It’s a good thing the press conference is on the 25th,” Akira chimed. “We have the live finale of King of Kings on the 27th.”

June sighed before proceeding to text Minjun.

June: Your new article.

Minjun: What about it? I wrote it pretty nicely. I didn’t want to roast you on your very first acting gig.

June: Not that, little devil. How’d you get those exclusive scoops?

Minjun: Oh, Director Nana told me. She’s really nice!

June: -.-

Minjun: Anyways, Grandma’s thinking of going to that press conference. I told her not to, though. Her hips have been hurting these days.

June: Tell her not to come. I’ll visit with herbal tea once King of Kings is done.

Minjun: K.

June shook his head, placing his phone down.

“I guess I have a press conference on Thursday. We need to prepare the arrangement for the last performance later,” he said to Ren.

Ren nodded. “Yeah, I already started it yesterday. I got some inspiration while watching a K-drama.”

June nodded, his mind also filled with ideas on how to execute the arrangement.

However, he saw a hovering notification on his user interface.

[Find out why Haruki hates you.]

[Deadline: 1 week and 1 day]

He sighed when he realized he still had another thing to accomplish. It would have been easier if he had conversed with Haruki before, but June was convinced that the popular idol hated him to a very great extent.

“June’s trending again!’ Casper said, a small smile playing on his lips.

“Yeah, we already know about that,” Akira said. “A lot of people are excited for his new drama.”

“Not that,” Casper happily said. “He’s trending because of last night’s special episode, too.”

“Right,” Zeth chuckled. “I almost forgot about that since we were so busy discussing the details of our performance.”

“It just showed who won the last mission,” Casper said. “Oh, and it also showed the Taekwondo episode. People are calling us simps for June or something like that.”

“I saw some clips on Navel yesterday night, too,” Sehun chimed. “We were acting so weird.”

“Weird? How?” Zeth asked.

“Like…Casper-weird,” Sehun responded.

The six members collectively gasped.

“Oh goodness, that is weird,” Ren muttered.

“That’s not important, though,” Casper said, cutting their conversation short. “What’s important is June’s aegyo was aired!”

June stopped mid-chew when he heard what Casper said.

“Aegyo?” June exclaimed, standing from his seat and walking over to where Casper was.

His eyebrows furrowed when he saw a clip that had over 20,000 likes on Casper’s screen.

Then, his face paled, and his lips dried up when he saw himself shooting arrow hearts at his members.

“Fuck,” June whispered.
