Yet, strangely, their popularity was sky-high. ㅤ 5 million fan cafe members. Overwhelmingly ranked #1 in villain popularity polls. ㅤ ...Even though the person in question is working at a convenience store because they have no money. ㅤ

「That person is an X-class villain!」 「Is this a broadcasting accident?!」
Giving the Best Hero Award to the worst villain. This wasn't an awards ceremony; it was a prank on the entire nation.
However, Baek Daeun smiled nonchalantly.
「Fufu. Would the winner please come up to the stage?」
