Chapter 432 King of King's Special Episode

Chapter 432  King of King's Special Episode

Mimi wasn't expecting a special episode of King of Kings to air tonight. Fortunately, her concert had ended two days ago, and she was now free to do whatever she wanted. So, with a bowl of pink cheese balls in one hand and a bowl of BenBen gummies in the other, she opened the television and went straight to the SBC channel. Her phone went off, and she saw a new text message pop up. Nico: You have poor taste in men. Mimi shook her head and decided to ignore the stupid boy who had been pestering her since yesterday. She thought her blatant rejection would finally get him to stop, but he started messaging her out of nowhere once again! Nonetheless, Mimi didn't want to think about Nico anymore. All she wanted to think about was the beautiful blonde boy on her screen. - I rewatched Rising Stars yesterday and was baffled by how good-looking June is right now. I need some glow-up tips. - He has been very handsome since then, though. He just looked very young and amateurish. - June looks scrumptious now. - June looks like my ex-boyfriend! - Keep dreaming, girlie. Wonbin was talking about some kind of pre-mission, but again, Mimi was only focused on June. She only snapped back to reality when the boys started moving to a different room. Then, they revealed the special guests of the night, making Mimi's eyes go wide. "Hana Lim and Kim Seobin?" she exclaimed, in disbelief that SBC was able to cast the very busy actors on their show. - Hana Lim is so pretty! - Ack, my heart. I can't believe they came here. Love in the Time of Royalty is my favorite show ever! - The idols are baffled. I mean, I would be, too, if I was in the presence of THE Hana Lim. There were glimpses of Hana Lim here and there, and Mimi couldn't help but sigh. "She's so pretty," she muttered. Then, she glanced to the side where a large mirror was perched. She was startled for a moment when she saw her messy appearance. However, she quickly gave herself a pat on the back. "I'm pretty, too!" she exclaimed confidently. "There's no need to feel jealous." The next scene, however, quickly made Mimi swallow her words. A small smile emerged from Hana Lim's lips, and she gave a small thumbs-up to one of the idols. Upon closer inspection, Mimi realized that June was the one smiling back at her.

It wasn't the main focus of the frame. However, Mimi, with her bionic eyes, was able to see what the two were doing on the side of the screen. She wasn't the only person who noticed this. Jia stood from her seat and pointed at the television with wide eyes, looking at her friends like a deer caught in headlights. "What?" Bora asked, confused. "You guys saw that, right? Tell me you saw it!" she exclaimed. "Saw what?" Soomin asked. "That the boys were fangirling over Hana Lim? I would too, to be honest." "Not that!" Jia said. "June and Hana Lim just flirted with each other." Her friends looked at her with raised eyebrows. "Nah, you're going crazy," Bora said. "June didn't even open his mouth to speak yet."

Jia laughed mindlessly, her eyes staring off into the distance. "I'm not going crazy, aren't I?" "You've been crazy ever since June came into your life; now sit down," Bora said, pulling her down by the sleeve.

Thankfully, Mimi's and Jia's delusions (or not) were briefly forgotten when the idols started the challenge. The people watching couldn't help but laugh at their poor attempts at acting. - Poor Nico. He looked so bad with Hana Lim. - Gideon, please stick to being an idol! - Ryan's actually pretty good! Seobin still ate him up, though.

- I can't. This is so funny! Y's face when Minho stepped up to act with him was hilarious. - Robby's got this one in the bag. The dude can act!

Now, it was finally June's turn, and a lot of people, even non-fans, were anticipating his acting performance. EVE's cheese ball commercial was very popular with the general public, so June was quickly labeled as a 'bad actor' by the vast majority.

Mimi was happy that June was chosen to act, but at the same time, she felt nervous for him. She knew she'd find him cute regardless, but she also wanted him to nail the challenge. Mimi stayed silent, even placing her bowl of cheese balls to the side as she watched June get into character. "Ten years," June started off. "Ten years of solitude. Ten years of missed opportunities. Ten years of dreams slipping away like sand through my fingers." Mimi's posture quickly straightened, and she leaned her elbows against her thighs to get a better look at June's acting. - What the heck? He isn't bad. - Are we seeing the same guy who said 'I love balls' in a cheese ball commercial? - This is why you bitches shouldn't be doubting June! He proves you wrong every single time. - I'm still going to doubt him for the plot, but you're right.

"I am a criminal through and through, and I will continue to be a criminal," June concluded. "Live the life I couldn't. Build the family I never had the chance to. And if you find it in your heart, forgive me, not for my sake, but for yours. You're free now, little brother, so go out there and live a life unburdened by the chains of our past." - He's eating this up! Was he good at acting all along? - June has always been the member who immersed himself the most in performances. It's not much of a surprise that he's a good actor. - Gosh, there's another reason to love him. - June, I told my mom about us. - June is happy while reading your comments! He's right beside me, and he wants to relay his thanks to everyone. Mimi leaned back against her couch, taken aback. June had debuted in less than a year, but he has already shown so many talents in that short span. It was the very reason why Mimi became drawn to him. However, this was much more than she had expected.

"Just how many talents do you have?" she muttered. Her thoughts were quickly snapped back to reality when Hana Lim started complimenting June, making the comment section go crazy. - Ayo, are we seeing how she's looking at my guy? - Why do they look good together? - June's mine! Back off, Hana Lim! Mimi's eyes widened as Hana continued to stare at June like he had saved the world in his previous life. She pursed her lips and shook her head in disbelief. Meanwhile, Jia continued pointing at the screen while Hana gave out her comments to June. "Do you guys believe me now? She definitely likes him!" Jia exclaimed. Bora shrugged. "What made you think so?" Jia let out a deep breath. "She looks at him the same way I do!"
