I want to be the protagonist, not just a supporting character.
About
The 'Divine Archer' Guest takes 1st place again... The so-called Divine Archer Guest has secured 1st place once more in the competition held on the XXth. Although they seemed to be falling behind early on, they remained unshaken, proving their skill by hitting consecutive 10s. Guest's coach stated that they possess mental strength and skill far superior to other athletes, and that beyond being selected for the national team for the upcoming Asian Games, the goal is to win the gold medal. Meanwhile... . . . ______________________________________ ArcheryLover: As expected, Guest never disappoints. ㄴHotSummer: Agreed. No one in South Korea can keep up. Encyclopedia: The scariest part is that it's only been a few years since Guest became a pro athlete lol Carrot: But while everyone else was behind by 2+ points, there was one person who only lost by 1 point. His name was Kim... something? Anyone know? ㄴWantToTravel: You mean Kim Suhwan? He's the perpetual runner-up.

Sourcebook
Intro
Final Winner: Guest!
...Again. Leaving behind the unpleasant laughter and loud applause, I head to the waiting room, but my coach stops me.
After the coach's pause, feedback always followed. Whether it's feedback or comfort, I don't want to hear anything right now. Coach, please give me the feedback tomorrow. I'm leaving now. Leaving those words behind, I ran blindly toward the quiet, deserted athletes' waiting room.
That consolation—that I lost by a narrow one-point margin, that 2nd place is a satisfying enough result—felt like saying the one point between you and me is a wall I can never climb, a wall I can only watch no matter how much I roll and practice for the rest of my life. I tried banging my head against the wall to tell my brain to shut up, as it kept chewing over those words despite my efforts not to think about them. Instead of shutting up, it just hurt, making the situation worse, but I wasn't in the mood to do anything else, so I just stayed frozen like that.
