NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 878 The Group's Similarity
878 The Group's Similarity
- Joonie's back? - I became a fan of him after watching the last season. I was pretty sad that it ended so quickly. Now, I get to see him once again! - The winner of the season is finally here, everyone! - Why are you making it into a competition? - Joonie! The main character of the show! The ninth reveal took everyone by surprise. It was Joonie who participated in the first season. Casper held in the urge to click his tongue in disappointment. Who knew that this guy was going to come back? Meanwhile, Uno looked at him with curiosity. They hadn't met before, and he was trying to make something out of his first impression. On the other hand, Casper almost smiled—almost. He thought it was another person. However, he had his hopes up for nothing. The camera panned to an overall shot, allowing the viewers to exclaim in amazement. The group was already star-studded, with nine people who were all famous in their own way. But it wasn't done yet. There was still one more person to be revealed.
Inside his cardboard box, June remained clueless about who the other nine were. His view was still occluded, leaving him in the dark—both literally and figuratively. "I swear," he muttered. "Why do I always have to be the last one in these kinds of things?" As he ranted to himself, his cardboard box was removed slowly, finally revealing himself to the light. A collective gasp was heard.
June stood there, blinking as his eyes adjusted to the light. But the moment the other participants caught sight of him, the silence shattered.
- June?
- June is here?
The comments flooded in almost instantly, the online chat exploding with disbelief and excitement.
- Holy crap! They managed to afford three members of EVE?
- Ramil PD really went all out for this season!
In the distance, Ramil PD's smug smirk was caught on camera. He really prepared well for this season, wanting it to become even bigger than the first one!
He had kept the final reveal under wraps, knowing that the shock of June's appearance would affect not only the audience but also the cast. "I see the pattern now!" Jaeyong excitedly exclaimed, standing from the couch when he finally realized what the group had in common. Akira also looked at the screen, shaking his head in amusement. "What is it?" Zeth asked, absolutely clueless. Akira turned to him with wide eyes. "You don't know? How can you not know?" Sehun scratched the back of his neck. "I also don't understand what you guys are talking about." The other three turned to each other with amused expressions. "Look at it more closely," Ren said, crossing his arms in front of his chest, not wanting to give it away so easily. Zeth clicked his tongue in annoyance. Nonetheless, he and Sehun turned to the screen with narrowed eyes. "So?" Jaeyong asked, enjoying the situation. "Do you guys finally see it? What do they have in common?" Zeth clicked his tongue. "I guess they're all good-looking. However, they're not as good-looking as I am. Maybe June can is. But then again, he's wearing his usual style of clothes—just with a white shirt this time. I told him to borrow one of my varsity jackets so he could look more stylish…" "You're getting off-topic," Ren deadpanned. "I have no clue," Sehun chimed, leaning against the coach. "Geez," Akira muttered. "I see that the two of you are getting old. You can't even comprehend things like this?" Zeth clicked his tongue. "We're nearly the same age!" Sehun shook his head. "I swear—you guys are going to be the death of me someday." Akira chuckled and focused his attention back on the screen. "Fine, fine, I'll tell you," he said. "These people…are all simps for June!" Meanwhile, the rest of the participants were proving Akira's statement right as they stared at June with wide eyes, each of them processing what they were seeing. "What?" Joonie muttered, unable to believe it. He had been tipped off about the other cast members just the day before. June definitely wasn't on the list! His mouth opened slightly, feeling like the world had betrayed him. On Navel, the viewers also caught the similarities between the groups, and they went wild. - It's a June simps special! We're being blessed this season! - Notice how all these people are related to June somehow. - Not only that, but these are his most popular ships. - June hates being adored. I wonder how he's going to survive these nine days? Choi Pablo, unable to contain his excitement, squealed out loud, his usual calm demeanor completely forgotten. Mimi, her eyes wide with surprise, quickly covered her mouth with her hand, her gaze not leaving June. Uno, who had been quietly observing from the sidelines, found himself unable to look at June for more than a moment. His ears turned a deep shade of red, and he quickly turned away, trying to hide the blush that was creeping up his neck. Haruki, on the other hand, had to purse his lips to stop himself from grinning. "He's really here," he muttered. Mei, who had been watching quietly, almost sighed in relief. Somehow, the presence of June made her feel safer, as if there was someone she could rely on in this unfamiliar environment. She stole a glance at him, feeling a small sense of comfort in knowing that she wasn't alone in this secluded village. Jisung, standing just a few feet away, couldn't help but be proud of his teammate. The others had a great reaction to his arrival! As expected from his very competent and very handsome brother! Casper also smiled and even clapped for June as he was revealed. However, despite not looking at the other contestants, he felt something strange within his heart. The rhythm of his clapping eventually slowed down as the feeling in his heart bloomed even further. Then, he tilted his head to the side. "Why does it feel like I'm in a dangerous position?" Casper sensed his competition
