It’s a best-friend V-log, but we’re not actually best friends - Chapter 22
The misunderstanding Min Baek-Ha threw out during the live that day only led to even bigger misunderstandings.
And the two of them ended up becoming the center of a small controversy without meaning to.
[Daily] Let’s watch Besties together
It’s Wednesday, Saturday… anyone wanna watch the live together..
shit this is bad my ship radar is going crazy;
I’m here
↳ same here
↳ (OP) lolllll wanna run this together here
At this rate, they’ll get a dedicated thread soon?
↳ I already saw one on another board… hope our cuties get one too
↳↳ same ㅠ
[Chat] Damn Baek-Ha is insanely handsome;
When he was a child actor he was cute and I wanted to squish him, but next to Sol he’s just straight-up handsome nowㅠㅠ
(live thumbnail pic)
From the shoulders to the hand size differenceㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ Sol looks like his cheeks would be so soft like a baby I’m going crazyㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
what’s 🌸??
↳ (OP) it looks like Sol LOL
↳↳ Sol evolved into a flower
cute tho🌸🦋💙
↳ is Baek-Ha the butterfly?
↳↳ yeah, pretty butterflies gather around pretty flowers
↳↳↳ the problem is the butterfly is too pretty
[Chat] Am I the only one who thinks Min Baek-Ha likes Sol
is this just my delusion
if that’s delusion then I had the same one
Baek-Ha talks so vaguely “could be friends?”
↳ fr why can’t he just say it plainly
↳↳ what if it’s a one-sided crush?
huh? aren’t they just real close friends? that last line felt like bait;; let’s not go too far
↳↳ yeah I kinda agree… but if it turns awkward between them then what if they go from friends to lovers that’d be best but that’s rare
↳↳↳ why?
think about it, they’ve been friends since elementary school. can you see a 9-year friend as a romantic interest?
↳ there’s a whole debate thread about that below so funny
↳↳ fr?
↳↳↳ it’s like that perilla leaf debate level
[Chat] How do you even date your friend?
I watched the Besties live yesterday and yeah they’re friends but the vibe was kinda like a situationship? I get why it’s popular but I’m confused I personally could never
You’ve already seen everything about them, right?
they really shot this topic up there;
huh? why not?
↳ (OP) nope already seen everything, nothing left to see
I’m marrying my childhood friend of 5 years what do you mean no such thing
↳ this is facts, no alpha/omega friendship exists
I agree, there’s nothing new to see except personality? no way it becomes romantic. Baek-Ha and Sol are just doing a concept
these days MET U has show couples and dating show trends, maybe they’re going for that innocent love vibe? anyway I’m losing my mind
↳ that ending drift tho
↳↳ if they planned it then their broadcast sense is insane
if my 9-year friend confessed to me? I’d puke
same I’d throw up fr;
unless your childhood friend is god-tier handsome
↳ spoiler: you marry them
what kind of chaotic conversation is this
↳ same
are we all possessed or what
[Chat] idk about anything else but if Baek-Ha’s one-sided crush is real I support it
already ready to form a cheer squad also ready to keep quiet so he doesn’t get exposed
ready to join the squad
↳ same
↳↳ same here, should we get uniforms?
↳↳↳ uniform in bright blue please^^*
this is it
but why bright blue, can we do pink
↳ someone used emojis for them and blue fits perfectly
this one 🌸🦋💙

Sitting at his desk editing the live video, Eun-Sol frowned deeply.
He pressed a hand to his forehead and clenched his bangs tightly, faint veins showing on the back of his pale hand.
“Min… Baek-Ha… you bastard….”
Even without using the MET U community himself, Eun-Sol had ended up seeing the posts after Kim Soo-Yeon sent them again.
After checking them unintentionally, his mind was filled with confusion.
He flipped his phone face-down on the desk and leaned back in his chair, tilting his head back and slowly closing his eyes.
Just earlier, their short announcement live had exceeded 600 viewers.
It was the first time he had ever experienced that many viewers.
While he had been flustered, Min Baek-Ha quickly regained his composure and acted calmly. That part still felt strange to Eun-Sol.
Baiting viewers wasn’t unusual for vloggers, so he could brush that off—but why did Baek-Ha have to describe their relationship so ambiguously?
Was that also bait? To grow subscribers faster?
“…Well… it should be fine, right?”
The brief doubt disappeared quickly.
At first, he had been really flustered, but after organizing his thoughts, it didn’t seem that strange.
Even if he couldn’t fully understand Baek-Ha’s actions, people’s reactions were familiar.
School wasn’t any different.
So Eun-Sol stopped overthinking it.
And Baek-Ha having a crush on him?
A laugh slipped out.
“No way. There’s no way Min Baek-Ha has a crush.”
If he were to comment on those “can friends become lovers” posts, it would just be endless “”.
For Eun-Sol, a childhood friend becoming a lover was impossible.
He agreed with the posts.
You already know everything about them—what’s new about it?
Though… apparently some people even got married.
“…Me and Baek-Ha… getting married….”
For a moment, Eun-Sol imagined Baek-Ha in a white tuxedo.
His eyes narrowed unconsciously.
“…He’d look pretty. In a tux—”
Wait, what am I thinking?
Eun-Sol shook his head hard, forcing his rising smile down.
He meant Baek-Ha would look good—not that he imagined himself standing beside him.
The moment that thought crossed his mind, his stomach churned slightly.
He tapped his chest.
“Did I eat something bad? I should just finish editing and sleep.”
He pulled his chair closer and leaned forward.
The room was dim, lit only by a strip of light from the mood lamp.
Focused on the monitor, he clicked his mouse—when a message popped up.
“…Baek-Ha? Why is he still awake?”
It was almost midnight.
Baek-Ha, who usually slept early like a “model citizen kid,” texting at this hour felt strange.
Thinking it might be urgent, Eun-Sol opened the chat.
Princess Bastard Baek-Ha
Sol, editing?
11:42 PM
Kim Soo-Yeon sent the community posts, did you see?
11:42 PM
“Hm.”
Eun-Sol replied.
yeah I saw
you caused the whole ‘friends debate’ by being vague you’re insane
11:44 PM
Looks like Kim Soo-Yeon sent it to him too.
Eun-Sol remembered Baek-Ha smiling earlier after seeing the posts.
He ended up smiling too.
“Guess he’s happy.”
Yeah… as long as you’re happy, that’s enough.
Eun-Sol shrugged lightly.
As long as Min Baek-Ha—someone precious to him—was happy, that was enough.
Because they would always be friends.
At least, that’s what Eun-Sol believed.
He still hadn’t properly realized Baek-Ha’s changed behavior.
While continuing his editing, Eun-Sol saw Baek-Ha’s reply a bit later.
Princess Bastard Baek-Ha
🌸🦋💙
11:55 PM
Seems like Baek-Ha liked those emojis from the community.
Eun-Sol chuckled softly and replied.
🌸🦋💙
2:23 AM
He really had always had a cute side since they were kids.
Closing the chat, Eun-Sol stretched his stiff neck, finished editing, uploaded the video—
and immediately dove onto the bed.
Streaming with Baek-Ha was unexpectedly comfortable and fun.
Even if Baek-Ha occasionally said things that made his heart jump out of his chest.
As Eun-Sol fell asleep—
the uploaded video’s views began skyrocketing like crazy.
