CMYEHDS Episode 1
by darkaedy“Let’s break up.”
Ki Seo-jeong finally uttered the words that had been at the tip of his tongue. Contrary to his worries, his voice was calm. Thank goodness. He instantly felt relieved.
It was all the result of his efforts. Let’s break up. Just four syllables, yet that single phrase had been so difficult that Ki Seo-jeong had spent the entire night muttering it over and over. The deep sighs that accompanied each word were a bonus.
His lips, having done their job, clamped shut again.
The words, spoken after so much hesitation, dissipated easily, leaving a heavy silence in their wake.
Enduring the pressure of the silence, Seo-jeong slowly closed and opened his heavy eyes. His gaze, which had been casted downwards, landed on the untouched coffee cup. The steam that had been rising had vanished without a trace.
He watched the now cold cup, waiting for a response, suddenly, a loud laugh erupted.
Ki Seo-jeong instinctively raised his head. His head movement caused a momentary blur in his vision, and then the source of the laughter came into view.
He saw a man in a hospital gown with the hospital name printed all over it. It was Cha Yoon.
Confirming the source of the sound, Seo-jeong swallowed, feeling a sharp pain in his chest. He felt once again that the person sitting opposite him was not the Cha Yoon he knew.
Cha Yoon, who hadn’t cared about the glares coming from the nearby tables, stopped laughing only after a while.
He finally seemed to calm down, rubbing his eyes. Seo-jeong followed the movement of his fingers.
He saw the dark circles beneath his crescent-shaped eyes. It was one of the many aspects of Cha Yoon that Ki Seo-jeong had loved.
“…Ah, that’s fucking hilarious.”
A low voice echoed. Cha Yoon’s first words, not matching with his endearing smile, were vulgar.
“I heard you dated a guy for seven years, so I thought you had some amazing love story going on.”
“……”
“But I guess not.”
So easy. Cha Yoon began to draw his own conclusions, observing as if it were someone else’s story, not his own.
“No, wait. Maybe you’re just trash.”
Cha Yoon, who had been leaning back on the sofa, sat up and pulled himself closer to the table.
“To break up with your ‘lover’ the moment they wake up after suffering brain damage?” Cha Yoon’s eyes sparkled with a playful expression, like someone who had just discovered an interesting piece of gossip.
Despite the continuous spew of words, Ki Seo-jeong didn’t respond. Or rather, he chose not to respond.
Because what Cha Yoon said wasn’t wrong. Silence was consent.
What he and Cha Yoon had done for seven years wasn’t some amazing love story, but just an ordinary relationship that ended like this, and he, who was about to leave Cha Yoon, who had lost all his memories from the past seven years due to his injury, was indeed trash.
After a long silence, Cha Yoon, who had been frozen in place, quickly lost interest and leaned back. Ki Seo-jeong’s response was ultimately irrelevant to him.
“Okay, then.”
Cha Yoon nodded. Ki Seo-jeong understood that it was Cha Yoon’s answer to his words, “Let’s break up.”
It was as light as Cha Yoon’s hair swaying with his nod, exactly that weight.
Cha Yoon stood up. There was no trace of regret in his movements.
“Ah.”
Cha Yoon, about to turn and leave, hesitated. As if remembering something, he fiddled with his fingers for a moment, then tapped the table.
“You can keep this.”
I don’t need it. The object that left Cha Yoon’s hand fell onto the table. It rolled across the table with a degu-ru-ru sound, stopping right in front of Seo-jeong. Ki Seo-jeong slowly lowered his head.
“……”
What Cha Yoon had left him was a small ring. A ring with the same design as the one on his necklace.
At that moment, Cha Yoon’s voice from a month ago echoed in his ears.
‘Seven years is enough time to date, right?’
‘So, let’s stop dating and get married.’
Cha Yoon’s voice, with a smile brighter than the sunset, as he stood with his back to the golden ocean.
When he looked up, Cha Yoon’s back was already far away. Seo-jeong closed his eyes. He wanted to keep his image within him for as long as possible, even if it meant doing so like this.
Even so, this wasn’t bad. It was a shallow and short time compared to the word “eternity” he always used, but it was still okay…
Ki Seo-jeong soon gave up trying to justify it, as the more he tried, the more pathetic he felt.
Turning his head, he saw snow piling up on the humid windowpane, snow that he didn’t know when it had started falling. Seo-jeong stared at the snowy scene and suddenly burst out laughing.
Ha ha, the soft laughter slowly subsided. He bit the inside of his cheek.
Thus, the not-so-grand love story of Cha Yoon and Ki Seo-jeong ended after seven years. It was a bitterly cold winter day.

– Whoa, crazy!
– Huh? My X is coming back? Didn’t the last season completely flop?
– It’s coming back! Amazing!!!
– Hmm…
– They’re milking this thing more than a cow.
→ Seriously, it’s just plain water at this point.
→ They’re boiling it, boiling it, and boiling it again…
– My X, Please: Kill me…
– A classic example of not leaving when you’re applauded.
→ ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ (TL note: expression of laughing)
– Wait, why is the reaction so bad??? I don’t watch dating shows, but wasn’t this popular????
→ Yeah, Seasons 1 and 2 were okay, but after that, it was just full of people who wanted to become famous, so it became boring..
→ 1 and 2 were legendary, so 4 was just okay, but in season 5, one couple’s fake relationship issue caused the public opinion to plummet.
– What’s the deal with the fake relationship?
→ Simply put, one couple pretended to have broken up.
→ (Link) You’ll understand if you watch this. It’s a video summarizing the My X controversy. Go go!
→ Whoa, I didn’t know that;
→ So what happened to them? Did they leave the show?
→ It broke out after filming was already finished, so it aired as is, but with their screen time reduced as much as possible.
– Honestly, as a fellow viewer, let me say this… The reason why the last season’s public opinion plummeted wasn’t exactly because of the fake relationship… Most shows featuring ordinary people, once they become popular, are filled with people who want to become influencers in the next season, and the public knows that ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ whether they fake it or whatever, as long as it fills their dopamines, they don’t care
→ The problem was the male cast’s looks… shit; Turning on the TV and seeing guys who are a dime a dozen on the street is eye-gouging, so how can you get dopamine? It just makes you angry.
→ That’s so true. Even if it’s artificial or staged, dating show viewers will watch it if it’s entertaining. Season 5 was criticized because of the ugly male.
→ Take a breath, shit
-Oops, wrong atmosphere… Sorry…
→ Then watch I’m Solo…
→ I agree with every single word. The male PD’s terrible directing without any sense also played a part. Watch Season 5, it’s infuriating,,
→ If you’re going to do it, please pay attention to the male cast’s visuals..; The male and female casts are not evenly matched, so it doesn’t dopamine, it makes you angry;
– What were the male cast members’ faces like in Season 5 that the public opinion is so bad?
→ (Picture)
→ ?
→ Shit
→ Severe..
→ What is this, a marine ecosystem research institute? Just the deep sea? Huh? What?
→The replies are hilarious ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ(Actually, it’s not funny.)
– If PD Kim Seo-hyo is directing it, maybe we can look forward to it?
→ Whoa, crazy! That’s true!
→ Please let it be ㅠㅠㅠ I still can’t forget the thrill of watching My X Season 1 and 2 ㅠㅠ
– Huh? When did Kim Seo-hyo return to GZ???
→ He came back this year ㅋㅋㅋㅋ But to return with My X of all things!
– ㄷㄷCrazy! ㄷㄷ
– Found my future meal buddy ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– It’s back again;; I came in thinking that, but if it’s PD Seo-hyo, it’ll be okay. I heard PD Seo-hyo has extremely high standards ㅋㅋㅋ
→ Same. And her directing sense is good.
→ Agreed. I still can’t forget the catfish’s appearance in Season 2.
→ Make a masterpiece that surpasses Season 2 ㅠㅠI’m still watching Season 2 clips ㅜㅜ
→ But considering her high standards.. the male cast members in Seasons 1 and 2 weren’t that outstanding… *mumbles*
→ ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Seriously agree (Of course, compared to Season 5, they’re idols;;)
→ Considering the overall downward trend of the average looks on the streets of South Korea, they were pretty good ㅜ
→ This is right….
– I’m a little nervous because of PD Seo-hyo’s directing… ㅎㅎㅎ
→ I hope the broadcast date is set soon ㅠ ㅠ
– PD Seo-hyo, please give me my dopamine.
