It was a somewhat impulsive action, so his heart pounded in a different way than when he had searched for Seo Baekhan’s name earlier.e1a7c2ac9a31c2a6

Well, it probably wouldn’t amount to much. I was only twelve years old, and all I had done in terms of public activities was show my face at a musical concert hosted by the Imperial Family. And that event was just last night.ff093c26004cfcb2

However, contrary to his anxious expectations, there wasn’t a single article of note when he typed ‘Joo Taehyun’ into the search bar. To be precise, there were far more stories about other Joo Taehyuns than about ‘Joo Taehyun of DH.’3eca867c37ce0d74

His story was so buried among Joo Taehyuns of all kinds of professions that it was hard to even find. It’s not an unusual name, but it’s not exactly common either. If not that, he had only occasionally see very old posts written in some bizarre style like, “Hyongs and noonahs, please recommend items for Taehyun uwu.”a0cc6e150a831b71

After hesitating for a while at the more pathetic result than he had imagined, Joo Taehyun clicked on the portal site’s biographical dictionary page and diligently scrolled through to see where his profile was located. He carefully examined it from the first page, lest he miss it… but it wasn’t there.326b93b5481546bb

A notice appeared stating that the biographical dictionary wasn’t arranged based on social position or asset size, but rather changed dynamically depending on how often people searched for the person and how much they clicked on the information.f8070e650a68efe0

From the start, he didn’t expect as much as Seo Baekhan. On a whim, he searched for a few of the peers he had met yesterday, and their results weren’t as pathetic as his. At least there were a few short articles about which competitions they had entered and which awards they had won.0fc8e989982e39c9

A moment ago, he had thought, “I’m still young, so it’s okay, right?” He felt ashamed of himself for even thinking that. Perhaps because he started public activities late, his parents might have deliberately avoided exposing him until now, a conjecture that briefly crossed his mind.72a552c242986a6d

Come to think of it, that’s what Seo Baekhan had been doing all along. Studying hard and getting into a good school. Of course, thanks to his superior intellect, he probably had many opportunities to show off his achievements, and the smart guy probably never missed those timings.869d9e64af5d19a0

But what was a good school anyway? Could you learn more by going to an expensive private school? Or should he go abroad? There’s probably no better way to broaden his horizons than that, right? It definitely wasn’t because Seo Baekhan was going to America that he was imagining this. His parents had been talking about studying abroad for a while now anyway…0f440dce39b70a7b

Someone came and went, putting a blanket over him, turning on the humidifier because he must be dry, and raising the temperature in the study so he wouldn’t be cold.
