85 Sgb 1

"What's next?" I ask Yuri-noona

"Since Seungi can't make his appearance, You and Chae-won have been asked to fill-in today?"

"Fill in? For what show??"

"Star golden bell"

'SGB huh? I never watched much of it in my time but from what I do recall it used to be very popular.

The premise of the show is pretty simple. Every week, 20 of the most popular singers, actors, comedians, and athletes would join on the huge set to solve problems.

The show consisted of various mini-games, which have certain prize amounts. The winning celebrity is given the opportunity to ring the bell by correctly answering a riddle. If he or she is correct, the money is donated in the winner's name

"And what did you say?" I ask my 'manager'

"I told them to give me until 1 pm, so I can ask you"

"Chae-won what do you say? " I answer

"If you are going, I don't really mind" Chae-won says while taking a bite of her sandwich.

"It's settled then Yuri-noona, you can let them know we are in"

Yuri-noona puffs her chest out, "Dylan you'll be shocked when you find out whose Today's celebrity guests are" She says as she hurries off to inform the crew of our decision.

.................

"And 3,2,1 Action!" The man sitting in the direct center of the stage announces as a sign to let the MC's begin.

Ji Suk jin the main MC who is standing behind us, is a 40 year old, his hair is cut neatly and his wearing a quirky pair of spectacles paired with a white t-s.h.i.+rt that has print off a Tie and vest over it. He speaks at a rapid pace as if the words are being fired by a semi-automatic weapon

"Sat.u.r.day night's spectacular variety quiz show SGB has begun. Let me introduce the MC's. Please don't be surprised this person eats out of the the same pot (same management company) as Jang Dong Gun (I've already explained the significance of this man a few chapters back, if you looking for a recap).... MC Kim Jae Dong"

The screen pans to a man with a bright smile, a more country version of Ji suk Jin in his light blue jumper and white s.h.i.+rt in front of a podium.

He shyly greets "h.e.l.lo everybody" and bows

Suk Jin continues, "An there is also this person who eats a pot of rice as a late night snack, MC Park Ji Yoon!"

A very elegant lady in a mustard yellow dress, whose hair is done in a regal style reminding you of the 60's with diamond earings greets "h.e.l.lo, I am Park Ji Yoon"

Sitting cross legged on the floor with only a pillow and a light backrest makes one feel slightly comfortable. Even more so when you consider we are wearing school uniforms.

There are 5 rows of 4 celebrities, Chae-won and I are in the first team with two singers, a femal called GilGun, and a male Se7en. I am seated at the back, in part due to my relative popularity as compared to the other three and also in part due to my height, thankfully I'm sitting next to SooYoung, whose fresh face makes my view not that bad at all.

In the second row is SNSD (Yoona, Tiffany, Yuri, SooYoung). (I know what you guys are thinking; SNSD again!? But its 2009 and they were the biggest girlgroup in the world. They were everywhere) . The third row is made up of male Idol group, SS501 which includes that annoying fellow Kim Hyun-joong . While the other two rows are minor celebrities who will probably not feature too much today (condolences my dear random characters whose names will forever never be mentioned).

Suk Jin begins proceedings by asking Jae Dong, "So you and Jang Dong Gun are family now? You guys are under the same management. How do you feel?"

He answers, "Someone on the internet left a reply on a article and it was sent to me. It said, "OMO, korea's best looking man and the worst looking man will be in the same place" I thought, wow Jang Dong Gun is going to find it tough being around the best looking man like me..."

"Ey! Don't push it! " Suk jin plays it off, unnaturally changing the flow of topic he says, "SooYoung, you nickname is "s.h.i.+ks.h.i.+n (Big eater) Sooyoung, "Have you ever had an incident where you thought, I might just die if I keep eating this?"

Looking at the tall thin figure next to me, her hair is tied into a loose pony tail with her hair partially covering her face and long pearly earings which give her a more mature vibe than the other girl group members in school uniforms, I giggle while listening to her answer

"Once, we couldn't eat anything for the whole day due to our schedule. Afterwards, I went to go to DJ my radio show and there was one large size pizza. So I ate the entire thing. Not because I was hungry but because I felt like I had been ripped off on my meals that day"

Noticing me laughing at the not so funny story, Suk Jin turns to me, "Dylan why are you laughing so loudly?"

Everyones attention turns to me, and I feel the cameras on me. I've gotten somewhat used to it after shooting brilliant legacy, so I quickly compose myself and say, "I don't know if I can tell this, Chae-won will kill me."

Suk Jin and the others grow intrigued and urge me to tell the story, even Chae-won gives her blessing . So I ..... 1000 words reached. #cliffkun
