“Rock, paper, scissors?”
“Sure,” I said, nodding at Geunsoo’s suggestion.
Si-dong stood between us.
“Alright, on my call. Rock. Paper. Scissors. Shoot!”
I held out rock, but Geunsoo held out paper. He won.
Geunsoo immediately grabbed the hammer, but unfortunately for him, I was faster and managed to cover my head with the lid just in time.
Clang!
“Oh,” Geunsoo said, impressed by my speed.
“Hey, new kid. You’re pretty fast.”
“You’re just slow.”
“Well now,” Geunsoo replied with a smile.
Si-dong called us to attention again.
“Rock! Papers! Scissors! Shoot!”
I held out scissors, with Geunsoo holding out rock. He won again.
He immediately picked up the hammer even faster this time, but sadly, so was I.
Clang!
“Wow, you’re really fast,” Geunsoo said, genuinely shocked. He even started to look a little worried.
“Hey, Geunsoo, why are you so slow? A turtle can move faster than you,” I said.
Geunsoo smiled again, though this one didn’t seem as sincere as the last one.
Hey, Geunsoo. Are you mad?” Si-dong laughed.
Geunsoo shook his head. Obviously not. Why would he be mad? Unfortunately, he did look mad. He was the athlete, after all. Losing twice to me could not be fun for his ego.
“Let’s go, new kid,” Geunsoo said, holding out his hand. I did so as well.
“Alright guys, this is the big one. Focus, you two,” Si-dong said. Geunsoo and I both nodded. This was it. The real deal. Let’s see who comes out on top.
“Rock! Papers! Scissors! Shoo!”
“Scissors!”
“Paper!”
I won. I quickly grabbed the hammer and brought it down.
Thwack!
I got him right on the head.
Wham!
Geunsoo’s head went straight down into the desk from the impact.
Crash!
He didn’t even get a chance to get his hand on the lid. For a second, everyone’s mouths went agape in shock. But then, all of a sudden, all the men started laughing. Even the staff laughed. They were all so sure that Geunsoo was just faking it for laughs. He was known to be a good actor, so I can see why they’d misunderstand. Unfortunately for them, he was definitely not faking it. The Lovely Girlz members all looked at him in concern, sensing the pain he was in. And so, finally, Geunsoo slowly lifted his head off the desk.
“Er…Ugh…”
Geunsoo was groaning in pain, but the men continued to laugh.
“Hey, Geunsoo, no need to go overboard! I almost thought you really died there,” Si-dong said, thumping Geunsoo on the shoulder.
Geunsoo immediately began to play along.
“Haha. Funny, right?” he said.
He turned to look at me again. I could tell that it was taking him everything to keep him where he was.
“Wow, Geunsoo. You’re a really good actor. Thanks. I needed a good laugh,” I said with a smile.
For a second, Geunsoo’s face turned dark before he regained himself.
“Hey, new kid. You’re pretty strong.”
“Hope you win the next round.”
“Alright, let’s go.”
This wasn’t just for the show anymore. This time, he was going for real. Remembering the garlic wrap incident, I decided to go along. Hey, I wasn’t done with my revenge.
Once again, we did rock, paper, scissors.
“Rock!”
“Rock!”
It was a tie.
“Paper!”
“Paper!”
Another tie.
“Scissors!”
“Scissors!”
And once more. A tie.
“Rock!”
“Rock!”
One more time. Another tie.
“Paper! Paper!”
And yet again, it was a tie.
But just then, Geunsoo took the hammer and brought it down on my head.
Thwack.
“Ow.”
That really hurts. Not physically, but emotionally. I couldn’t believe he’d cheat like that.
“Hey, Geunsoo! You can’t hit her! It’s a tie!” Si-dong said.
Geunsoo immediately dropped the hammer and tried to play it off as some kind of accident. What accident? We saw it clear as day. We tied, but he still picked up the hammer and hit me. Well, thanks to his mistake, I got a free shot.
“I can do it as hard as I can, right?” I asked.
“Of course! As hard as he did!” Si-dong shouted in Geunsoo’s place.
Geunsoo gulped.
“But what if I flatten his head?”
“Hey, quit kidding around,” Geunsoo said. I could detect a slight hint of fear in his voice.
“Who says I’m kidding?” I said with a smile. Geunsoo gulped once more.
“Alright, Geunsoo. Stand up straight!” I said.
At that, Geunsoo immediately straightened up.
“I’m going in.”
“Wait,” Geunsoo said, suddenly holding up his hands to stop me.
“What?”
“Can I hold this up?” he said, holding up the pot lid. The men immediately started on him.
“Geunsoo, what’s wrong with you? Don’t be scared. She’s just a girl. Take it like a man!”
“Si-dong, I’m serious. She’s really strong!”
“Quit yapping! Look at her arm! Look how skinny it is.”
“Ugh! I don’t believe this!” Geunsoo did sound very frustrated.
“Yeah, yeah, you can hold it up,” I said, breaking up the fight. Geunsoo immediately held the lid above his head as if he was afraid I would change my mind. I began to spin the arm holding the hammer.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Geunsoo’s face darkened at the sound as I could feel his fear and anticipating rising with every second.
“I’m going in!”
I brought the hammer up high….and all of a sudden, Geunsoo dropped the lid and began to run.
“What?”
No way was I going to let him get away! I threw the hammer at him in resopnse.
Wheeee!
The hammer flew through the air and hit the man in the butt.
Thwack!
Geunsoo flew several more feet. No CGI necessary.
***
After the game, it was time for Q&A. Yoo-young went first, and then it was my turn. It was just me asking a riddle with the cast members trying to solve it.
“Hey, guys,” I said, but no one answered. They all looked scared. Geunsoo couldn’t even look at me. With that, I turned my focus onto him.
“Hey, Geunsoo.”
Geunsoo didn’t answer.
“Hey, Geunsoo. I’m talking to you.”
“Yeah. Hi,” Geunsoo said, finally looking at me.
“How’s your butt?”
“Well, there’s nothing there anymore, thanks to you.”
“Pfft.”
Everyone snorted at that.
“Really? That’s good,” I said. Then, I turned to Kibum Kim, who was sitting next to Geunsoo. He was also a famous comedian. He was quite well known for his unusually full lips.
“Want me to do the same for your lips?”
“No!” Kibum said loudly in response. Everyone laughed.
“What is she? Some kind of thug?”
That was Jong-hyun Kim, who was sitting right at the front. He was a member of a popular boy group. That plus his tall stature and pretty face made him very popular.
I’ve always wanted to hit him. Now was my chance.
“Hey, Jong-hyun. Stand up.”
“Huh?” Jong-hyun said, looking a bit shocked. The men all laughed. Si-dong then spoke up.
“Hey, Jong-hyun, why’d you have to call her that? You’re in for it now.”
“Hey, Si-dong, you are smart.”
At my praise, Si-dong sent me a bunch of finger hearts. I made him get into a downward dog position for that.
“Hey, Jong-hyun, hurry up.”
“Ugh.”
Jong-hyun stood up, albeit sloppily.
“Hold onto the desk and stick out your butt.”
“What?”
“Did I stutter?”
I held up my hammer. Jong-hyun held out his bum. The other members turned to get a look.
“Hey, look away.”
At that, the Lovely Girlz all turned away. The men all laughed again. Si-dong then stood up.
“Hey, Sian.”
“What?” I snapped.
“Nothing,” Si-dong said, getting into his former position again. I turned back to Jong-hyun.
“What did you call me?”
“I called you a thug! Happy?”
Seems like Jong-hyun still had some learning to do. Of course, this is his character concept.
“What did you say?”
“A thug! A no good thug!”
Thwack!
“Ergh!”
Jong-hyun’s hands immediately flew back to clasp his butt as he fell to the floor.
“Oh, sorry,” I said. Not that Jong-hyun heard it anyway.
“Ugh…that really hurts…ow…”
“See, Jong-hyun! I told you! I told you Sian is really strong!” Geunsoo shouted.
I turned my attention back to him.
“Geunsoo, you can go back to your seat.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
Quick as a flash, Geunsoo returned to his desk. Then all of a sudden, a man from the back finally spoke up for the first time today. Kihoon Seo. The face of the show if you will. He was one of the top volleyball players in the country, with a giant physique to show for it. He was also around 2 meters tall on top of that. Rather impressive-looking.
“Wow, guys. You guys are whipped,” Kihoon said, standing up. Now that he was up, I could finally see just how impressively tall he truly was. How can anyone be that tall?
So I said, “Hey, Kihoon. Sit down.”
“Haha,” Kihoon said. Then, he continued.
“Hey, new kid. Do you know who you’re talking to? I’m the leader of this group. I’m the king. Watch your mouth.”
Si-dong then spoke up.
“You? The leader? Nuh-uh. That’s me.”
Kihoo snorted.
“Huh? Did you just laugh at me?” Si-dong demanded. He got up and looked up at Kihoon. Kihoon stared back, looking down at Si-dong. That took the courage out of Si-dong, who had his courage crumble down as he went back to his seat.
As he sat down, he muttered, “Just this once.”
Everyone laughed at his statement.
But for some reason, Kihoon wasn’t done. He gestured towards me.
“Hey you, Sian. You. Me. Let’s go.”
“Fine.”
Still holding onto the hammer, I walked towards him.
“No,” Kihoon said. “Leave the hammer.”
“No.”
“Then I’m out,” Kihoon said, sitting down near his desk again. As soon as I put down the hammer, he came towards me again.
“Let’s have an arm wrestling match.”
“Fine,” I said with a shrug. Then, I asked, “But when do I get to ask my riddle?”
“Pfft.”
Everyone laughed at my question. Anyways, the desks were soon set up for our arm wrestling match as Kihoon and I sat on opposite sides of a desk.
“Now, raise your arms,” Si-dong said. I placed my right arm on the desk, as did Kihoon. His arm looked really long compared to mine. His hand was big as well. At the sight of my arm and hand, Kihoon laughed.
“How can you be strong? Hey, Geunsoo, Jong-hyun. Since when were you guys so weak?”
“I’m not!”
“She’s really, really strong!”
Geunsoo and Jong-hyun continued to shout, but Kihoon waved them off, clearly not believing a word they were saying.
“Here. I’ll just use a finger,” Kihoon said, holding out his index finger.
“You might need more than that,” I said. If I was using only my finger, then maybe. Actually, no. Even if I only used my pinky toe, I’d still win.
“It’s fine. Here.”
Kihon stuck out his index finger as I grabbed it. His finger was so big, it was almost the size of my hand.
“Okay guys, you ready?” Si-dong asked.
Kihoon and I both nodded. Si-dong brought down his hand.
“Go!”
Crash!
