“”

At this moment, twelve hours have passed since yesterday's OGN Summer Championship opener, and after the second match of ES.M vs. KTA yesterday was wiped out by Lee Sang-hyuk and Daelong, there was no suspense anymore.

At the end of the 27th minute, ES. M caught Bo Dan here, and after killing one, he smashed the yellow dragon straight from the middle lane, and pushed off the base master crystal on the opposite side in one go, and the final head ratio was also fixed at 16:3 with a huge gap.

Therefore, almost as soon as the next day dawned, all the media and news programs in South Korea on the side of e-sports entertainment reported on yesterday's event in an all-round way. And ES.M, as the biggest dark horse in yesterday's opening game, is undoubtedly very eye-catching. It immediately occupied various headlines on today's report page

For ES.M, the victory in the first battle with KTA undoubtedly gave them great motivation and confidence. Even Dopa, who originally seemed a little lazy, had an extraordinarily ruddy face this morning and woke up early. Lee Sang-hyuk got up in the morning and washed up, and when he went downstairs to the training room, he found that this guy was already sitting in front of the computer.

"So early?" Coming to the refrigerator in the corner of the training room, Lee Sang-hyuk opened the refrigerator door and looked at Dopa, and asked with a slightly strange greeting.

"Huh?" Dopa, who was sitting in front of the computer, seemed to be looking at the screen, and was stunned for a moment after hearing Lee Sang-hyuk's words behind him, and then touched the back of his neck with a smile and said, "yes." Some can't sleep. ”

"Drink something?"

"Thanks, apple juice."

Lee Sang-hyuk walked behind Topa with a glass of water and juice, put the apple juice next to his computer, and then sat diagonally on the computer desk next to him, looked up and took a sip of water, and asked with a smile, "How did you feel about yesterday's game?" ”

"Huh." Dopa couldn't help but smile, but there was a heartfelt smile on his face, which had been very stiff after staying at home for a long time. "Pretty good."

Hearing Dopa's words, Lee Sang-hyuk looked at Topa with a smile and said, "Now don't blame me for bringing you back from the Chinese 'pit'?" ”

At the mention of this stubble, Dopa's face couldn't help but smile. glanced at Lee Sang-hyuk angrily.

Lee Sang-hyuk changed the subject with interest, turned his head and looked around and said, "What about that little guy Uzi?" They haven't gotten up yet? ”

"Went out for breakfast. Uzi said he had found a Chinese restaurant nearby and was pulling Madlife to eat some Chinese food. Topa pouted. He said with a slight sneer, "You think everyone is like you." So late? ”

Lee Sang-hyuk smiled disappreciatively and said, "The crew had a night scene yesterday, and I came back a little late. ”

It turned out that after the end of the competition yesterday, Lee Sang-hyuk, who received the director's notice, rushed to the crew of "The Heirs" non-stop and completed the filming of part of the night scenes in the play, and it was already early in the morning when he came back.

Dopa also remembered the teammate next to him who looked younger than he should be, and he was also a contracted artist who had released albums and made movies at S.M Entertainment. And at the same time. His original identity seemed to be a high school student with excellent academics, thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Lee Sang-hyuk in surprise, remembering that Dopa in his high school days seemed to be a little incomprehensible to a Korean high school student how he could have such vigorous energy and time.

While thinking about this, Dopa, who was boredly scanning the real-time news on the web page while waiting for the ranking, suddenly opened his mouth coldly and asked with a strange face, "What time are you going to school?" ”

"Afternoon, what's wrong?" Lee Sang-hyuk asked a little strangely when he saw Dopa's expression.

Topa spread his hands and motioned to the computer screen, "See for yourself." ”

Lee Sang-hyuk leaned over curiously, and after reading the headline of the news on the webpage, he said with a smile, "So, our school is already surrounded by these fans?" ”

It turned out that the news in the real-time news was actually Lee Sang-hyuk's Gwangju Kogao, which was surrounded by fans from around seven o'clock in the morning, and it has not dispersed until now.

"I don't think I've seen anything like this before, have you?" Lee Sang-hyuk muttered to himself a little confused.

Dopa, on the other hand, smiled "gloatingly" and said nothing more

In fact, the reason for this situation is naturally because of the recent popularity of the drama "The Inheritors" on the prime time of South Korea's SBS, and on the other hand, because when Lee Sang-hyuk was playing live yesterday, the two commentators on the stage inadvertently said during the transition break, "Smile seems to be a student at Gwangju University of Science and Technology." ”

Although this short sentence passed by in the commentary's mouth, it was undoubtedly a bomb in the ears of many scenes and many viewers and fans who were watching the live broadcast.

You must know that with the popularity of the drama "The Inheritors", Lee Sang-hyuk's popularity among the younger generation in South Korea is increasing, and it can be said that he has reached a certain critical point. Compared with the previous MAD album and the focus of fans' attention when doing e-sports live broadcasts, since the drama "The Inheritors", fans' attention has gradually moved closer to him because of Lee Sang-hyuk's sunny and handsome image and heart-warming personality in the play.

In other words, compared with the strong operation when fans paid close attention to Lee Sang-hyuk's e-sports competition before, many fans at this moment, especially some little girls who paid attention to Lee Sang-hyuk because of the drama "The Inheritors", have obviously shifted their focus now. This led to the situation that as soon as yesterday's game passed, Gwangju Kegao was chased and surrounded by fans from all over South Korea this morning, wanting to see Lee Sang-hyuk's side
