Now That I Have Become a Woman, I Am a Vtuber

---

Early morning.

“Yawn….”

I got up from bed while yawning.

Since yesterday I worked as a manager.

Today is Moon Chang-sik’s turn to manage me.

So, I woke up early, but…

“Hmm….”

I want to sleep a bit more.

Should I use the excuse of a variety show to just sleep in?

I sat on the bed, contemplating for a moment.

Should I get ready, or should I sacrifice my precious sleep for the sake of this variety show?

I even thought it might be interesting for Moon Chang-sik to come wake me up as part of the show, but then my pajamas caught my eye.

“Ah.”

I’m wearing those super pink rabbit pajamas.

They even have ears on the hood.

Come to think of it, I look ridiculous right now.

It’s because I’m in the pajamas that Tenshi bought for me.

She bought so many clothes at the department store that my closet is packed with them.

So, there’s no avoiding the fact that I’m wearing this animal onesie with rabbit ears.

Showing up like this while oversleeping would be quite a blow to my image as an actress, so I forced myself to get up.

I wonder when Moon Chang-sik will arrive?

He’ll probably park in front of the house like Park Kang-seok, right?

Given our front alley lacks a proper parking space, if I don’t hurry, I’ll end up attracting my neighbors’ judgmental gazes.

Well, seeing Moon Chang-sik all flustered asking for someone to move the car would be a different kind of funny.

But, as a manager, he shouldn’t put himself in that awkward situation.

So, I quickly changed and got ready, leaving the house.

I stepped out just in time to see a luxury sedan right by the gate.

Usually, there’s a black van driven by Park Kang-seok in the morning, so it feels strange to see a different car.

“Hello?”

As I opened the gate and walked towards the car, the driver’s side door opened, and Moon Chang-sik stepped out.

“Yes, hello, Actress.”

Unlike yesterday’s casual look, he seems a bit more put together today.

“You can get in here.”

“Hmm, how polite.”

Moon Chang-sik opened the back door for me.

Since I’m the actress today, I confidently accepted and climbed into the back seat.

This feels quite different.

Is it because it’s Moon Chang-sik?

The vibe is completely different compared to when Park Kang-seok does this.

“You dressed up a bit since you’re my manager today, huh?”

“Yes, since it’s work.”

“Hmmm, let’s head to the shop first. Do you know the way?”

“Of course, I do.”

Thus, I started my day as an actress, riding in the car driven by manager Moon Chang-sik.

**

“Welcome… Oh, it’s been a while, Actress!”

At the shop we arrived at, the director seemed excited to see Moon Chang-sik.

This shop, courtesy of Sangshik Entertainment, is where Moon Chang-sik used to go, so they probably all know each other well.

“Yes, Director, but today I’m the manager.”

“Oh, I heard from Soo-hyun.”

I guess he had already informed the shop that he’s taking on the role of my daily manager.

Everyone was a bit surprised at first, but once they knew it was for a variety show, they seemed to accept it.

That’s the power of variety shows!

Like foreign hidden-camera shows, everyone quickly shifts into understanding mode when they hear ‘filming.’

“Since you’re here, would you like to get your makeup done on the side?”

Wait, they’re suggesting makeup to the daily manager now?

Or is it Moon Chang-sik who suggested it?

He probably has close ties here and might come back in the future.

“Well, I’m working as a manager, so…”

“Get the makeup done.”

“Is that okay?”

“I already did mine, you know.”

Since it’s turned into this, it’s better to have the makeup-wearing Moon Chang-sik by my side rather than the normal one, right?

Besides, I did makeup with him yesterday, and it feels a bit odd to do it alone today.

“…Then, understood.”

So, both the actress and manager got their makeup done together.

“Let’s go to the filming location.”

Next, we headed to a drama filming location where they were just wrapping up an episode.

“So, we’re filming here.”

“Yes, exactly.”

I wondered if I could bring someone from Moon Chang-sik’s team, but surprisingly, the drama team readily granted permission.

After all, a drama is set to air next year.

It seems they’re looking to promote things a bit early.

I think this variety show might be part of that promotion.

It’s like a first look at actor Kim Soo-hyun’s new drama, but I’m not even the lead actor, which lightens the pressure.

Anyway.

“Alright, let’s go.”

Entering the familiar closed school with Moon Chang-sik and a cameraman, I felt…

“Uh….”

“Over there….”

Is it because I brought the great actor Moon Chang-sik with me?

Even though I had informed the filming location earlier, I could feel everyone’s eyes glued to me.

“So popular, huh?”

“Haha… Some people here are familiar faces.”

“Hmm, you can go greet them if you like.”

“No, not today. I’m the manager.”

“Well, since you’ll be serving coffee later, you can do it then.”

“….”

Since I’m a manager now, I really must serve coffee at the filming location, right?

Our Park Kang-seok is a master at handing out coffee.

I’ll need to see how well Moon Chang-sik manages that too.

“Let’s head to the costume room first.”

Now that I’m at the filming location, I headed to the costume room to change clothes.

Come to think of it, I’m going to show off Yeon-ah’s look for the first time.

Well, they’ll probably edit it well in the variety show.

But I doubt the classroom scene will show me in a school uniform since I’m at a closed school.

The details will be worked out by our drama team and the variety show team.

“I’ll go change now, so please serve the coffee.”

“…Understood.”

“Fighting, Manager!”

Having arrived at the costume room, I entrusted the manager duties to Moon Chang-sik and changed outfits.

I’ve grown accustomed to wearing this school uniform.

I think they said they’d give it to me as a keepsake after filming wraps—will I wear it again someday?

Anyway, after donning the school uniform and a red down jacket, I’ll head to the makeup room for some quick touch-ups and a wig, completing my transformation into Yeon-ah.

After finishing all the settings, I returned to the set and spotted Moon Chang-sik busy handing out coffee.

“Here you go.”

“Wow, I’ve never received such precious coffee before….”

…This is surely the right choice, right?

Seeing Moon Chang-sik handing out coffee, everyone seems unsure how to react.

“Manager?”

I called out to Moon Chang-sik.

“Oh, Actress.”

As I called, he turned around with the coffee, only to be left speechless at my appearance.

“Do I look strange?”

“…No, not at all.”

“Come on, seriously.”

This guy?

Does he think he won’t have to wear a uniform?

Isn’t it just like when we went to the variety show together last time?

I’ll just have to look it up later.

“Where’s my coffee?”

“Oh, here it is.”

After receiving my coffee, I headed towards the busy filming area.

“Soo-hyun, you’ve arrived.”

As I reached the bustling set, the director came over to greet me, as usual.

“Ah, Actress?”

He recognized Moon Chang-sik and immediately greeted him with enthusiasm.

“Long time no see! How have you been?”

Not just recognizing him, but he seemed genuinely happy to see him.

…Isn’t he the lead actor from a rival movie?

This is unexpectedly friendly.

“Do you two have a connection?”

“Yes, I used to work on a project with the director before.”

“Oh, I see.”

Well, given Moon Chang-sik’s career, he must have collaborated with numerous famous directors.

Plus, with that in mind, being on guard against a rival actor is probably disadvantageous for the director.

Who knows? The next rival might become his lead actor someday.

“By the way, I find it surprising that you two are close.”

“Oh, us?”

However, the director seemed surprised at the nature of our bond.

“A master.”

But am I really close with Moon Chang-sik? I’m not sure.

We have some familiarity, and I guess we’re comfortable with each other, but isn’t it a bit ambiguous to call it friendship?

“A master? Oh, the one I mentioned last time….”

“Yes, yes. This is Master Chang-sik.”

So, calling him my master might slip off the tongue more easily.

After all, he truly is my acting mentor, isn’t it?

He even gave me a push to get into the filming industry, so I suppose calling him a benefactor wouldn’t be wrong either.

“Oh! No wonder Soo-hyun’s mindset is so excellent; you have such a master!”

“Haha….”

After chatting briefly with the director.

“Should we start filming now?”

“Yes, yes, everything’s ready, so you can jump in right away.”

Once at the filming location, I prepared to shoot the scene.

“Manager, please watch the filming closely.”

“Me?”

“Yes, yes, you need to give feedback.”

Plus, today I have Moon Chang-sik here, which gives me confidence that the scene will come out well.

Honestly, filming while getting real-time feedback from Moon Chang-sik would make it weird for me not to do well, right?

“…I’m a manager, you know?”

“Also a master.”

Well, it’s not exactly what a manager typically does, but…

Isn’t it okay to bend the rules a bit in such cases?

Especially since it’s the important final part of the shoot, I’d better do everything I can.

“I’ll be counting on you.”

“…Understood.”

So.

I set Moon Chang-sik firmly next to the director.

“Alright, we’re going to start shooting!”

We began filming the climactic scene of the episode.
