So the menu itself isnt bad. But the taste is just bland.

In front of the assistants office.

Senior Min Ju-hee, with her arms crossed, was explaining stuff. Standing in front of her were the first-year kitchen team.

Has anyone tried making and eating it? I tried it yesterday at the dorm with some kids.

Of course, no one responded. Even if it is the kitchen team, who would have tried it right after the menu was decided?

I tried it.

Unless it was me, who even went to the trouble of doing it at home.

As I hesitantly raise my hand, the other students look at me.

They seemed surprised that I had tried it, but there was also this look of mockery, wondering how much I was looking forward to this festival.

However, senior Min Ju-hee, as expected, smiled and gave me a nod.

You, as I thought, are good.

This time the first-years look back and forth between me and her, surprised at us.

It seems like they didnt think that senior Ju-hee would think highly of me.

So how was it?

Like how Senior said, its passable. But I wouldnt want to eat it again.

If Choi Yiseo hadnt made it, I wouldnt have had it at all. Even Choi Yiseo looked troubled after making it.

Right? Its a recipe from last year, but it seems like it needs some changes. Lets see who here is good at cooking.

No one raised their hand.

Seeing this, senior Ju-hee frowned slightly and then she asked again.

Anyone who often follows the recipes from YouTube, can at least manage a stew, or lives alone, raise your hand.

Even those who live alone?

As soon as she asked that way, a couple raised their hand, and the senior nodded.

Lets change the menu. It wont take long. YouTube can be studied, and simple modifications can be done. Try it once, thats all.

Then what about the rest of us?

At the junior girl who eagerly asked, Senior smiled and said.

Move the luggage.

You people will bring things like kitchen utensils. And from setting up the tent, you guys will have to do everything else.

The hammer of judgment fell on those who wanted to escape by not being able to cook.

There was a mood of wanting to switch to chefs now, but it was all too late.

Well, we arent going to do it right away. Just know this for now. And

Uh, Ju-hee?

The assistant teacher peeked their head through the door which had been turned.

They contacted us saying they are disciplining the kids here.

What?

Senior Ju-hee looked at the juniors, wondering what this was about.

Did something happen?

No! Nothing at all!

No!

This really made it feel more like imposing strict discipline. But the teaching assistant didnt take this seriously because he knew what being a senior was like.

Were about to disband, so Ill wrap this up quickly.

Yes, thanks.

The assistant slipped back inside and senior Min Ju-hee scratched the back of her head and spoke indifferently.

Im doing this because the professor asked me to. But when I do things, I am one to do it right? Let us get along well without stepping onto the bad side.

Yes!

As everyone was moving away after the talk, senior Min Ju-hee flicked her finger and called me over.

Yes, Senior?

She glanced around and then asked quietly.

Did I speak too harshly?

Uh? Youre thinking about that?

She seemed like one not to care at all.

No, I might speak a bit strongly sometimes because of old habits, but didnt I try to be kind to everyone?

Your definition of kind seems quite broad, Senior.

It was an announcement, what she did just now.

Normally when doing such tasks, its better to be strong than kind. You know.

Right, because there are kids who wont do the work.

The words of senior Ju-hee stung me a little.

If it wasnt for her, I would have been one of the lazy bums.

Well, as long as its okay. After the festival, well start shooting the short film in earnest. Just take note.

Yes, I understand.

As I saluted and saw her off, senior Ju-hee chuckled.

And you havent even been to the military yet.

My enthusiasm instantly cooled.

So I told him straight. Its okay to do it.

Youre insane! Thats crazy! Youll be in trouble for that!

Its not that easy to happen!

Woah, a gamble with life.

Sip. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒𝔀𝓮𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝓵.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Seo Yerin was sipping her coffee, listening to her friends explicit story for the night.

She was in the coffee shop with four friends she had known since high school, and two of them have boyfriends with intense stories to tell.

She was interested, but too shy to join in.

My boyfriend suddenly suggested doing it while sucking on ice.

Ice!?

Yes, so we passed ice from mouth to mouth while doing it. It was surprisingly nice. Exciting and pleasurable.

Should I try it then?

Go ahead, its quite nice.

Sigh.

Seo Yerin exhaled softly. Despite drinking cold coffee, her head felt hot.

Take it easy, guys, Yerin is getting embarrassed.

Yu Arin, sitting opposite, sipping from her straw, complained. The other two shrugged.

Yerin needs to know this too.

Right, shes too nave. Thats the problem. She needs to meet some guys!

Yu Arin agreed with that statement. However, thinking about the guy Seo Yerin is currently interested in, she didnt want to recommend it.

Do you have to date for sure? Yerin can do it when she wants.

You have to meet someone at this age.

Right. Especially since Yerin is quite popular, she needs to develop an eye for men.

While doing so, the two friends quickly shifted their target to Seo Yerin and began to talk.

Yerin, try meeting a guy at the fest. Make sure he goes through an interview with us.

Well filter out the weird ones for you. Do you have someone youre interested in right now?

No.

Seo Yerin felt someone come to mind for a moment but quickly denied it and changed the topic.

However, the two long-time friends noticed that there were changes in Seo Yerins feelings and exchanged glances.

Yerin, its not just about speaking outright, its important for you to gain experience with men like this.

Right. That way, youll be able to recognize when the right man comes along, you know.

I-it isnt just me, Arin is here too!

Eventually, with her face turning red, Seo Yerin resorted to a slightly underhanded method to shift the focus.

The other two friends also looked at Yu Arin, but,

Whats up with her?

There is Chan-woo.

I told you to not link me with him.

Yu Arin immediately frowned and got annoyed. Since they were high school friends, they knew about Jeong Chan-woo, so the two werent too worried about Yu Arin.

Its pure love.

A childhood friend whos breathtakingly handsome? Isnt that something straight out of a fantasy novel?

Sigh, if you like him so much, you take him.

Yu Arin, who genuinely had no interest in Jeong Chan-woo, was met with incomprehensible looks from the two friends.

How can anyone dislike that face?

Im serious, if Chan-woo confesses? I would strip right there and dash to his bed.

Bitches.

Deeming the talks worthless, Yu Arin turned her attention to her phone.

Whenever Jeong Chan-woo is mentioned, Yu Arin had a sharp reaction, so they shifted the topic back to Seo Yerin.

Seo Yerin was pondering various things on her own.

Am I too conservative?

Right now, both her friends are deeply connected with their boyfriends. One even experienced the culture of sex before dating.

Yu Arin, for instance, had playfully let Kim Woojin touch her chest, which she heard about last time.

Although she didnt like it, she didnt view anything odd between Yu Arin and Woojin.

Should I take an active approach?

Being called a Sex God on the anonymous side, but a fool in reality.

She wondered if this could be a chance to reveal more of herself.

Um?

Yu Arin, who was looking at her phone, let out a gasp. As she frowned and tilted her head in confusion, her two friends couldnt help but ask out of curiosity.

What is it?

This girl really knows how to make people curious.

Seemingly not intending to do so, Yu Arin showed the phone screen.

-Anonymous90: Revealing the identity of Sex God Anonymous69.

Whats this?

A friend who didnt usually check the Bamboo Forest asked, tilting her head, and another friend explained in detail.

There is this sex-crazed person in the Bamboo Forest. They consistently post about wanting to engage in sexual activities every day.

If they put that much effort into dating, they would have succeeded by now.

Yep.

Yu Arin agreed with the conversation, but the issue was what came next.

-Anonymous90: I will give you one hint every day a student in the English Literature and Language department.

Theyre from our department, so Im curious.

Typical English Lit level.

You people really have fun with the Bamboo Forest.

The three of them began to chat among themselves about this interesting topic, chuckling.

Uh?

There was one person here.

Who couldnt laugh.
