After the dice was rolled, Hyun-Jung slowly moving towards Minsu's property. And stopping right on Minsu's property. Minsu stood up as well as Ji-Hun and cheered for their victory.
"YES!!" Minsu cheered before looking at the property. He jumped happily, he upgraded it into a hotel as well.
"Give me.. 5.5M!" Minsu said as he was faking that he was about to cry. Iseul was just laughing by how the members play this game. Even Minsu changed his personality just to win the game. Hyun-Jung gave all his money to Minsu and since it wasn't enough, he gave his 1.3M property and 13 of his smaller properties he didn't upgraded.

After the monopoly game and actually, their VLIVE schedule, they went straight to their dorm.
"Congrats with the monopoly game, Iseul." Hyun-Jung said to Iseul since he won the game even though Minsu beat Hyun-Jung.
"Yeah. I used my "go to jail every time" technique to get away from the properties Minsu had." Iseul said as he went straight to their bedroom. After a few minutes, the other members went to their bedroom, calling it a day.

June 13, Monday /Before Schedule/Van
"Hyun-Jung was pretty early today. I was surprised by it." Minsu said as he entered their van.
"What makes you wake up early, Jungie?" Ji-Hun said as he made up a nickname for the male.
"I don't know. I felt so weird doing it." He explained. Once everyone was in the van, the driver started to go to their destination. While M41 were quietly eating their sweet potatoes. their manager took the opportunity to speak.
"Hyun-Jung?" Their manager, Sang-woo said softly.
"There's a photo, spreading around the internet about you with another girl. Is this you?" Their manager said, showing the photo to Hyun-Jung in his tablet. The members were in complete shock.
"Wait... What? When was that? I don't remember that.." Hyun-Jung said, shaking his head.
"Last night." Sang-woo explained.
"Our contract said that no dating. What happe-"
"That's not me! I swear! I have nothing to do with that!" Hyun-Jung said, defending himself from the accusations.
"I believe Hyun-Jung's telling the truth. I didn't felt Hyun-Jung going out of the dorm." Iseul said, defending the male.
"I'm sorry but you have to tell that to Jun-so. Explain it." Their manager said. The van was so intense that the members just sat quietly there. Since Iseul was close to Hyun-Jung, he placed his hand on the male's thigh to cheer him up a little bit.

June 13, Monday /Busking/Hongdae Street
M41 went outside their van. Their spot was already been set by their staff when they got there. There were no people near their area yet, but there will be soon. Once their song played in the speaker very loudly, some people roaming the street came close to them. Some even ran, presumably that was their fans wanting them to see. The staff gave them wireless microphones. The members turned it on and as soon as their song ends, they greeted to the people watching them, happily to see them despite the photo being leaked about Hyun-Jung. Is it really Hyun-Jung?
"Hello! We are M41!" The members said with the microphone. The other people applaud and some in the back cheered for them.
"Who would introduce their name first?" Hyun-Jung said, looking at the members.
"Hello! I'm M41's Center, Main Dancer and Maknae, Minsu!" Minsu said, introducing himself to the audience.
"Hello! I'm M41's Leader, Lead Vocal, and Lead Rapper, Iseul!" Iseul introduced as well,
"Hi! I'm M41's Main Rapper, Lead Dancer, and Face of the Group, Ji-Hun!" Ji-Hun introduced.
"Hello Everyone! I'm M41's Main Vocal, Sub Rapper, and Visual, Hyun-Jung" Hyun-Jung said, introducing himself last.
"Before anything else, we would like to thank everyone for coming here!" Iseul said as he smiled at the audience.
"We will perform a lot of stuff for you guys to enjoy!" Iseul added. The audience applaud.
"So first, could someone introduce our debut song?" Ji-Hun said, asking the members to explain their song.
"The title of our song is "Good Vibes" It is a tropical summer song that I'm sure it is perfect for this season!" Hyun-Jung explained. There were a lot of people moving close to their area. A lot of people were also recording them.
"Why don't we perform that for them? Do you want to hear our debut song?" Minsu said, encouraging the audience to respond.
"Yes!"
"I feel like the audience needs to put their energy up. ARE YOU READY TO HEAR OUR SONG?" Ji-Hun shouted.
"YES!!!!" The audience responded. By that, other people went close to their area because it caught their attention.
"Who's this group?"
"I don't know."
"They said they're M41"
"Oh, I know that member over there. That Ji-Hun! I saw his instagram."
"Oh M41. I heard them on the radio one day."
Once M41 were performing their song, their mics were completely on. No lipsync. Just them singing and dancing to their song. The audience were amazed by how stable their voices are. They continued to sing their song. Once it ends, the audience gave them a round of applause for the fantastic performance they pulled. Some even cheered for them. M41 bowed by how the audience were supporting them.
The busking ended pretty well. After they performed their debut song, Hyun-Jung covered "We Don't Talk Anymore" by Charlie Puth. The audience loved Hyun-Jung 's voice and the members were so proud by their Main Vocal. They even cheered for the male. But some people suspected that they saw Hyun-Jung somewhere... They just can't point it where exactly... Minsu was the next to performed. He did a freestyle dancing. The members cheered for the male too. They were amazed by how Minsu was now confident unlike before. Ji-Hun can't stop smiling while Minsu was dancing in front of the crowd. And for their last performance, they did their first cover as a team back when they didn't knew their debut song.

June 13, Monday /After Schedule/ Luminous Music CEO's Office
Their manager opened the door for M41. The CEO and the assistant were already inside the room so they greeted them. They sat on the couch before the CEO said something.
"Let's go with the good news first." The CEO said, looking at the members. The members knew that there will be bad news after this. And its all about Hyun-Jung.
"Number of downloads went from 600 to 2,100. The Music Video Views went up as well. It reached 120K in Super Sound Bugs and 109K in the official Youtube Channel of M41, making it 229K in total." Their CEO said, the announcement made M41 so happy with their progress.
"And now, here's the bad news." The CEO said, breaking the happiness of the members.
"There's some rumors about Hyun-Jung, sneaking out of the dorm to meet a woman." The CEO explained, looking directly to Hyun-Jung. The male took a deep breath before speaking, but Iseul spoke once Hyun-Jung was about to speak.
"I believe that's not Hyun-Jung. I pay close attention to the members and I didn't seem to feel that Hyun-Jung went out of the bed. And actually, my last time check before going to bed was 12:46PM. Can you check the time were that photo got shoot?" Iseul said, trying to defend Hyun-Jung from it. Well, its clearly not Hyun-Jung. The assistant opened his laptop and starts to read the article.
"M41 Hyun-Jung Dating Rumor? M41's Hyun-Jung was caught with a non celebrity woman outside Times Square. The photo was taken 2:34AM." The assistant said before looking at the members.
"That's impossible. That's the time where Hyun-Jung woke up!" Ji-Hun defended. Hyun-Jung was too stunned to speak and he was overwhelmed that the members are defending him.
"I don't tolerate this kind of attitude. The contract says no dating. How did y-"
"I'm not into girls." Hyun-Jung said, interrupting their CEO.
"Come again?" The CEO said, trying to cope up with what did he just heard.
"I'm not into girls. I don't date girls." Hyun-Jung said. The members were in complete shock.
"S-sir... What if we use that excuse to get rid of the rumors..." The assistant said softly.
"Do you think Koreans would accept that? Think about it." Their CEO said, before the members tried to defend Hyun-Jung about the current situation.
"I actually agree with the assistant. Yes, it will be an excuse to get rid of the rumor, but think about it. KPOP fans these days are very open minded. They don't care about the sexuality of a KPOP idol. Some idols were forced to be straight because the company wanted them too. But Luminous Music is different, right? So be unique. If Hyun-Jung wanted his sexuality to be spread online, then be supportive of it." Iseul said, putting his arm around Hyun-Jung since he heard that the male was already crying. Their manager, the CEO and the assistant were sharing a look to each other. The room was quiet after that.

June 13, Monday /After Schedule/ Dorm
M41 were sitting on their couch, except Ji-Hun who sat on the floor. While Hyun-Jung was crying nonstop, Minsu and Iseul was trying to let the male calm down.
"I-I'm sorry if that'll b-be the way for all of y-you to know what my s-sexuality is." Hyun-Jung said, sobbing.
"We are okay with it! You know, being gay isn't wrong. The people saying gay is wrong is the wrong one. We're here for you." Ji-Hun said, placing his hand on Hyun-Jung's thigh.
"I-I really wanted to t-tell it to all of you first. B-but I had to do it back there b-because it was getting w-worst." Hyun-Jung explained.
"You know what we need to do?" Minsu said as he looked at all the members.
"No.. not now... plea-"
"GROUP HUG!!!" Iseul said, interrupting Ji-Hun. Iseul hugged everyone. The other members hugged each other as well. Hyun-Jung was smiling while they did the group hug.
"Thank you guys.." He said as he starts to chuckle.

June 14, Monday /Before Schedule/ Van
The members were eating their sweet potatoes quietly in their seat. At the back side of the van, Minsu and Ji-Hun were having a conversation.
"I'm sure a lot of our fans will give you so much things. You're popular even before M41" Minsu said softly.
"Then I'll give half of my gifts for you." Ji-Hun responded.

June 14, Tuesday /Fansign Event/Convention Hall
M41 were in the backstage. The staff were preparing for the event on the hall. A few minutes had past, they could hear a lot of people on the hall, presumably its their fans. tThey were so excited to see them again.
Then, the manager assist them to go to the hall. Once they slowly went outside the door, their fans were screaming, cheering for them. It startled Minsu as he stopped walking while looking at all of their fans who came to the event.
"Loud" Minsu said softly, trying to tell their fans through his mouth moving. Their fans laughed before calming down. The members picked up the microphone placed in the table before greeting.
"Hello! We are M41!" The members said before they bowed.
"We didn't expect that a lot of people came here. Now I'm shy." Ji-Hun expressed.
"Ji-Hun? Shy? Impossible." Hyun-Jung said, looking at Ji-Hun.
"Did anyone noticed that Hyun-Jung's always bothering me?" Ji-Hun said, the fans were laughing at their humor.
"Its just you." Iseul said as he laughed.
"We didn't bother that Hyun-Jung is bothering you. Its kinda satisfying." Minsu said, smiling.
"I feel like I don't belong to this group." Ji-Hun said looking at their fans. The fans were still laughing.
"I guess we can call ourselves M31 now" Hyun-Jung said, laughing.
"I'm out." Ji-Hun said, pretending to walk out of the hall before going back to his spot. The fans we're laughing and some even were crying out of laughter. It was a fun moment to them.
"Let's get this started!" Iseul said, going to their chairs. The fans cheered by it while the other members followed their leader and sat on their own chairs as well.
