for people who don't quite understand this chapter:
- in the past, the main character was a thug then one day, his brother came to look for him to get money for his mother who was very sick. then he got the money by threatening people, and there was 1 family that he got the money from by threatening them with their son. so then when he returned to give his brother the money, the man from the family earlier turned up and stabbed his brother so the brother died. so he has turned over a new leaf and started working properly and honestly. then he meets his old roommate who he once liked but that roommate took all his money and ran away. so this chapter the roommate is having a convo with some guy and the roommate reveals that he was the one who sent the man from the family after the brother. he says something along the lines of he was being threatened so he panicked and told the man that the person he hates, the mc's, brother is waiting outside so he tells the man to stab the brother instead of him. so the mc hears him confess to all that and also the fact that the roommate always planned to steal the money from him and flee so he gets mad (as he should) so then he decides to take revenge by probably by joining the idol industry so that he can become more popular than his ex friend and ruin him (i'm guessing the man who approached him is either an agent or talent scout). also there's this director (probably the male lead), who's looking for a person, someone (probably the mc) that he had a 1 night stand with and that in the morning, left him leaving only money behind (basically paying him for spending 1 night with him)
hope this helps clear things up a little 💯
