Chapter 73: Hyori's 'Humiliation'

"Hyori, stop fooling around, let's put the worms on the hooks first." Lee Shin-haeng grabbed a few worms and stretched them out in front of Yoo Jae-suk.

"Ahh... Ahh..."

Suddenly seeing the worms in front of him, Yoo Jae-suk was so scared that he fled in all directions.

His timid appearance made the other members laugh uncontrollably.

After the commotion, Hyori sat on the beach, took the fishing hook, and started threading the worms. Since she sometimes went fishing with Lee Shin-haeng, worms weren't that scary to her, and she quickly threaded them onto the hook.

Park Yijin, seeing how easily Hyori did it, also came over and squatted down, using a small stick to pick up a worm and try it herself.

Amusingly, Lee Tae-hi even brought a flat stone and placed it next to Park Yijin, saying it was to use as a cutting board. This made the three older men, Yoo Jae-suk, Yoon Jong-shin, and Kim Soo-rou, speechless. Yoon Jong-shin shook his head and sighed, "Young people these days..."

Since the men in the family were too 'cowardly' and just watched without helping, the women had to thread the worms onto the hooks.

Lee Shin-haeng originally wanted to help, but Yoo Jae-suk secretly pulled him back and gave him a look, so he stayed put.

After all the hooks were threaded with worms and the bamboo poles were inserted into the water, no one was catching loaches. Lee Shin-haeng had just put his fishing rod in the water when he caught a loach.

Seeing how easily the loaches were caught, everyone's confidence increased, and they felt more at ease.

They all inserted their fishing rods into the crevices of the rocks and returned to the shallow part of the beach.

Yoo Jae-suk said, "While we wait for the fish to bite, we have nothing to do. To increase our mutual affection and communication, let's play a game."

"This game is called 'Carry My Love.' First, we'll divide into two teams. Hyori and Yijin will play rock-paper-scissors to decide who picks first."

"Rock, paper, scissors." Hyori won the first round.

"Lee Shin-haeng." Hyori said without hesitation.

Lee Shin-haeng happily walked over to Hyori and gave her a high-five to celebrate.

"Wow! Do you two have to be so clingy~!" Yoo Jae-suk teased, "So, Yijin, who do you want to pick?"

"Me? I'll pick Tae-hi Oppa."

In the second round, Yijin won and picked the strong Kim Soo-rou.

"Tae-hi." Hyori called out.

The last two left were Yoon Jong-shin and Daesung. They looked at each other, and Yoon Jong-shin had a bad feeling.

"Yijin, what are you going to throw?" Hyori used psychological tactics to try to win.

"Scissors." Yijin wasn't simple either.

"Oh~, Yijin says she's going to throw scissors..." Yoo Jae-suk turned to discuss with Yoon Jong-shin but was turned back by Hyori pulling on his hood.

"Oppa, hurry up and start the game." Hyori often bullied Yoo Jae-suk.

Yoo Jae-suk straightened his clothes and said helplessly, "I guess I can't wear this kind of clothing... Ready, Carry My Love, rock-paper-scissors."

Hyori lost, and Yoon Jong-shin joined Hyori's team, while Daesung joined Yijin's team.

"Ah~!!!!!" Hyori shouted in frustration.

"Now, it's Shin-haeng, Tae-hi, Yoon Jong-shin, and Hyori on one team, and Yijin, Kim Soo-rou, Kim Dong-wan, and Daesung on the other team. The losing team will have to accept a water slap from the winning team." Yoo Jae-suk explained the rules. "We'll stop the game once we catch the loaches."

"If we don't catch the loaches, do we have to keep playing?" Yoon Jong-shin asked.

"Someone will be watching and will notify us when the loaches are caught, so let's get ready." Yoo Jae-suk explained, "First up are Lee Shin-haeng and Kim Dong-wan! Dong-wan, Shin-haeng is very strong, are you okay with this?"

"No problem." Kim Dong-wan shouted loudly.

"Oh, you're full of confidence, but you should know that the person next to you is a fitness enthusiast who works out 365 days a year." Yoo Jae-suk tried to intimidate him.

Kim Dong-wan turned to look at Lee Shin-haeng's particularly muscular arms exposed by his tank top and swallowed hard.

"Ready~! Go!" Yoo Jae-suk waved his hand.

Lee Shin-haeng and Kim Dong-wan ran at the same speed toward Hyori and Yijin, picked them up, and ran back. Lee Shin-haeng was a step faster and handed Hyori over to Lee Tae-hi.

Lee Tae-hi also ran very fast and returned a bit faster than the other team's Kim Soo-rou.

For the next round, it was Yoon Jong-shin's turn.

"Ah~..." Yoon Jong-shin, carrying Hyori, didn't run far before he received boos from the crowd.

It turned out that Yoon Jong-shin was running too slowly, and the advantage of the evenly matched teams was lost. The outcome was already clear.

When preparing for the second round, Kim Soo-rou refused to participate. He had run so hard that he had no energy left and strongly suggested that Yoo Jae-suk and Yoon Jong-shin compete.

After some consideration, the production team agreed to Kim Soo-rou's suggestion and had them compete.

Yoo Jae-suk and Yoon Jong-shin reluctantly stood at the starting line.

"Don't want Oppa Jong-shin, I want Oppa Jae-suk." Seeing Yoon Jong-shin on her side, Hyori objected.

"Trust me one more time." Yoon Jong-shin pleaded to Hyori.

But Hyori still shook her head, and Yijin said, "Let's do rock-paper-scissors."

"Rock-paper-scissors, yeah~! I won, Yoo Jae-suk." Hyori jumped up happily.

No one expected the result of the race, where Yoon Jong-shin, carrying Yijin, ran faster than Yoo Jae-suk, which was very disappointing.

For the third round, the first match was between Shin-haeng and Kim Soo-rou.

"Bro, I won't lose to you." Shin-haeng challenged Kim Soo-rou.

"Let's see." Kim Soo-rou was not to be outdone.

"Race start~!"

At the command, the two quickly dashed out.

"Wow~! The race is intense, Lee Shin-haeng and Kim Soo-rou are neck and neck, reaching the shore at the same time, picking up, picking up, running back..." Yoo Jae-suk reported the race status at a rapid pace. "Almost at the same time, the players are switched, Tae-hi and Kim Dong-wan, good, the gap is widening, Yijin's team is leading..."

However, an unexpected accident happened, and Tae-hi, carrying Hyori, fell into the water.

"Ha ha ha..." The others burst into laughter.

Although they fell, there was still a chance. Hyori quickly got up and tried to climb back onto Tae-hi's back, but she lost her footing and fell into the water again. Undeterred, Hyori got up again and jumped onto Tae-hi's back, but Tae-hi fell after just a few steps...

"Ha ha ha..." Everyone clapped and laughed at their clumsy appearance.

Yijin's team had already returned to the finish line leisurely.

"End it, carry back."

Tae-hi tried to pick up Hyori, but his legs gave out, and he sat on the big rock where Hyori was standing. Hyori slapped his back in anger.

"It must be because Hyori is too heavy, Tae-hi is as tired as an old man, how pitiful~!" Yoon Jong-shin sarcastically retaliated against Hyori.

"Now, in three rounds, Hyori has lost unconditionally."

Hyori, who was carried back by Daesung, kept protesting, "I'm not heavy."

"Playing with me and Oppa Jong-shin, Hyori lost all three rounds, what's going on? The Hyori effect?" Yoo Jae-suk said.

"Hyori will lose unconditionally, yes, the Hyori phenomenon?" Yoon Jong-shin continued his sarcasm.

Hyori,不服气地提议道：“再比赛一次怎么样？女人的，女人来背。”

不服气的 Hyori suggested, "How about one more round? Women will carry this time."
