Chapter 576 Tong in my Purse

576 Tong in my Purse

"I can't believe we're in the 5th spot right now," Jisung giddily said while June was preparing to film for Disguise Surprise Singer.

Their promotion period had finally ended, and Luster was now steadily rising in the charts.

"I'm seeing a lot of people dance to the song on Liklok, too," Jaeyong smiled.

The atmosphere in the dorm was bright and harmonious, as all of the members were excited about the achievements that the song they produced was getting.

"I'm also very excited for June's performance later," Zeth said. "I heard that a lot of people are tuning in for the live show."

"Well, it is a very loved show," Ren pointed out. "We'll also be watching."

"Why won't you tell us which song you're going to perform, though," Akira said, squeezing June's biceps.

"Oh," Akira said when he copped a feel, raising his eyebrows in surprise. "Are you working out lately? You've become more firm."

June clicked his tongue and retreated his bicep away from Akira.

"It's a surprise," June said.

"How can you keep such secrets to the person who birthed you as Tongman?" Akira snapped, narrowing his eyes at June.

"Whatever," June brushed him off. "I'm going."

"Good luck, June!"

His members collectively wished him luck as he left the dorm. Then, he went to the parking lot where Jay was waiting for him. He sighed in disappointment when he saw that there was still a Tong right over his head.

"I'm starting to think you're enjoying this," June said.

Jay merely shrugged, letting June believe that what he said was right.

They drove to an open stadium, where music festivals were usually held, for the very first Disguise Surprise Singer live show.

The show was bound to start later in the evening, but the stadium was nearly filled to the brim. People of all ages came to watch the show, and the atmosphere felt like a carnival.

While June prepared backstage, a group of young adults arrived at the stadium.

"I thought you hated this show," Bora said as she looked around the field.

"Yeah," Soomin said. "You said it was for middle-aged people with mediocre married lives, single old people, and kids who can't clean their own asses."

"I still stand by what I said," Jia smiled. "I just wanted to come here today."

"Hypocrite," Bora chimed.

"Oh, shut up and eat your corn dog."

Bora shook her head and stuffed her mouth with the food items that Jia had bought for her.

"I was only able to bag second-row tickets, though," Jia said. "But I guess that's better than nothing, right?"

"I don't know what kind of deity you have in your life, but the fact that you got us front-row tickets every time we go to these shows makes me wonder if you saved the world in your past life," Nari said.

The five of them went to their seats. However, Jia quickly halted when she saw two familiar people in the seats just right before them.

"Mom?" she exclaimed.

Cindy and her husband turned around, looking surprised as well.

"Boo bear? What are you doing here?"

"Boo bear," Bora chuckled to herself, causing Jia to pinch her side.

"Is this the date that you and Dad were supposed to have?" Jia asked.

"And is this the studying session that you told me you were going to?" Cindy retorted.

Jia's eyes narrowed at her mother. "I thought you only watched this show for Guitarman."

"I thought you didn't watch this show at all," Cindy clapped back.

Jia sighed and looked at the banner her mother was holding.

"Tongman? You're a fan of Tongman now?"

Cindy sighed. "What? I really liked his performance, okay? I want to see him again."

Jia shook her head as she sat in her seat. She couldn't believe that her mom idolized the same person as her now.

Backstage, the new challengers were busily preparing for the show. Meanwhile, June was asked to go to the side of the stage, where his throne was currently situated.

June didn't think much about it. However, as he went to the stage, the stadium erupted into loud cheers, startling him.

"What the heck?" June muttered as he looked around. Last month, Guitarman dominated the venue with his fans; now, it seemed like all of his fans transferred to Tongman.

- Tongman, I love you!

- I became addicted to his performance after it came out.

- I kind of want him to be eliminated so I can finally see who he is.

- I fell in love with a man whom I don't even know.

June glanced to the side and saw the panel members looking at him with intrigue. At the very first seat was Lee Sik, who waved at him before giving him a thumbs up.

June reciprocated his greeting with the same action as he settled in his seat.

Just then, Kim San finally arrived at the stage, the people once again bursting into cheers.

"Good evening, beautiful people!" he exclaimed loudly. "Thank you so much for coming to this live show—the very first one for Disguise Surprise Singer. It's honestly a surprise to see so many of you support the show despite the darkening skies. However, I'm sure we're going to light up your world with the performances of our challengers."

"However, before all of that, let us first greet our very own Disguised—Tongman!"

- Kyaaah! So handsome.

- I can't believe I'm attracted to tongs nowadays.

- You're not the only one. I saw a tong in the grocery store and suddenly felt my heart beating.

- Ya'll are crazy.

- I want a tong inside my pu—

- Please don't finish that sentence.

- Purse! I want a tong inside my purse to show everyone that I'm a fan of Tongman.

Kim San waited for a while until the screams died down, even covering his ears for a second due to the loud noise.

"Well, I can see that all of you are enthusiastic about this performance," he chuckled in amusement.

"So, without further ado. Let's welcome the first challengers to the stage!"
