Chapter 56
“If it’s this much of a party…” The part-timers must have really died because they were preparing.’
I had a part-time job at this hotel in the past, My job was to carry the luggage needed for the party, so I could imagine it.
Kang Heeyeon asked as she looked blankly inside as I recalled the memory of that time.
“Actor? Aren’t you coming in?”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
I went inside with an awkward walk. Then there was a familiar voice in the background.
“Oh, Kang Jinseok!”
It was Producer Na Jinho, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time. I bowed deeply.
“Hello, PD!”
“Haha! You’re still very friendly.”
“Thank you.”
“But what’s the matter? You don’t look so good.”
I couldn’t say, “I thought how hard it must have been for the part-timers,” so I talked about it in other words.
“No, it’s not. I think it’s because I’m so quick to be invited to such a fancy place.”
“Haha! That’s understandable. I’ve been rolling on this floor for 20 years, and it’s my first time having an end party here. Originally, I just finished it roughly at a meat restaurant, but this time, “Dreams of the Sun Rising” was also a hit, so the director cared about it.”
“I see.”
“By the way.···”
Na Jinho approached me and asked.
“How did that work go?”
“Oh, I got a call a while ago that I was accepted. Thanks to the producer, I got an opportunity to audition for a good work. Thank you very much.”
“What’s wrong with my virtue? It’s all Jinseok’s skill. Anyway, that’s great.”
“Thank you.”
After hearing my answer, Na Jinho asked in a worried voice.
“By the way, I heard KL Entertainment was mean again. “Are you okay?”
“···How did you know that? “The article went down in an instant.”
“I’m kind of close to the producer in charge of the work. She said she handled it by removing all KL Entertainment actors, but Jinseok is also careful, just in case.”
“Yes, thank you for your care.”
I did not say that I met with KL Entertainment’s first manager. Because I didn’t want to be involved with them.
Na Jinho, who looked at my face, said.
“Tell me if anything happens. I’ll help if I can.”
“Yes, thank you.”
After that, we talked about how we’ve been doing. It was mainly the story after I left out of the filming of “Dreams of the Sun Rising”.
“I’m personally curious about this, but doesn’t actor Kang Jinseok want to have an agency?” If you go into “The Way They Choose”, it won’t be easy to manage your schedule.”
“I feel the need these days, but I haven’t decided yet.”
“I’m not an actor, but let me give you a piece of advice. Rather than the strength or conditions of the company, a company that allows an actor to act what he or she wants to do is the best. Especially a talented actor like Jinseok.”
It is probably a conclusion made while watching and filming numerous actors so far.
He bowed to the advice that he could not buy even if he paid for it.
“Thank you. I’ll decide with your words in mind.”
“Haha, yes. Then have a good time Go ahead.”
Na Jinho walked toward the staff with his back.
***
When the end party began in earnest, close people gathered in groups.
Among them, the busiest one is.
“Hey, Jinseok. “The poster photos were amazing”
“It’s been a while. Jinseok, you’re so popular these days
“I heard from Nayeon. “I heard you did well on your audition”
It was around me.
Min Kyungsoo, Park Woohyun, and Lee Narin became close in “Dreams of the Sun Rising.”
And Han Jehoon and Lee Hyunah, with whom I became close in “Spring Without Flowers”.
My table, where a large number of leading actors gathered, was getting everyone’s attention at a glance.
Reporters who came to cover the end party were also pressing shutters toward this side.
When I said hello to each person, Park Woohyun said.
“Oh, that’s right. Jinseok and Kyungsoo, I heard you’re going to work together again.”
“Oh, of course!”
Min Kyungsoo jokingly put his arms around me.
“Jinseok and I are soulmates who are older than each other.” Right, Jinseok?”
“What? Oh, yes. Ha ha, ha, ha.”
Park Woohyun shook his head when he answered with an embarrassing smile.
“What do you mean soulmate? It’s obvious that you’re trying to put it on Jinseok.”
“Look at the cheap thing you’re talking about. Ouch, really.”
After glaring at Park Woohyun once, Min Kyungsoo said in a slightly serious voice.
“Oh, that’s right. “Jinseok.”
“Yes.”
“I changed my role.”
“····? Yes?”
How can you change your role?
“You were originally a ‘police’.”
“Yes. But it changed to “Boss.”
Originally played by Min Kyungsoo, “Police” was a person who helped the main character, “Oh Manho.”
On the other hand, “Boss” was the head of the villain. In other words, it was the opposite role.
“What happened?”
“Yes. You know Moon Jongchul, right? Originally, he was the boss, but he was cut off because of his agency’s problems.”
“Oh, yes.”
“Producer Na Jinho said all KL entertainment actors would be excluded. That’s what he meant.”
“So somehow it changed from ‘police’ to ‘boss’. Well, I’m confident in any role.”
Other actors would be quite embarrassed. However, it didn’t seem like a big deal for an actor like Min Kyungsoo to change his role.
Park Woohyun, who was listening to the two of us, said.
“Bro, it’s been a long time since I acted to be a nice guy. It must be a shame.”
“Producer Ha Sarang is asking me a lot, but I can’t help it. At times like this, shouldn’t a “talented middle-aged actor” come forward like me again
Min Kyungsoo said with confidence, beating his chest. Park Woohyun smiled slowly at Min Kyungsoo.
“Then it’s rather good.”
“What do you mean it’s rather good “What?”
“The boss of the organization fits your image perfectly. I’ve seen you for a long time, but you have to do something bad. You’re a bad person from the start of your skin. Even if you play the role of an alien villain later, I don’t think you have to dress up as a special guest.”
“What?”
Park Woohyun, who had been arguing with Min Kyungsoo for a long time, told me this time.
“Jinseok. I heard you’re already the main character.”
“Yes, the producer liked it.”
“How can you nail everything?” It’s all about your skills. By the way, if Jinseok is the main character and Min Kyungsoo is the villain.”
“···.”
“Is Kyungsoo and Jinseok going to play a game with acting?”
Park Woohyun’s playful words slightly subdued the atmosphere of the table.
It wasn’t because Min Kyungsoo and I fought each other or looked at each other.
This is because Han Jehoon and Lee Hyunah, who do not know the relationship between Min Kyungsoo and Park Woohyun, came out and were looking at Min Kyungsoo.
At that time, Lee Narin said calmly, as if it were no big deal.
“You two, never mind. What Woohyun and Kyungsoo say is that 9 out of 10 is just meaningless.”
The two were furious at Lee Narin’s words, not to mention who came first.
“Hey, Narin. I’m a serious talker. You know, it’s all because Park Woohyun is with Yang Ahchi
“Hey, Narin. I’m a serious talker. It’s all because I’m with a fool, Kyungsoo
Wow.
How can you say such a long sentence at the same time?
Maybe these two are true soulmates.
Min Kyungsoo and Park Woohyun kept saying, “Why are you copying me?” and “Wow, I got goosebumps. I’m in a bad mood. “I want to go home,” she said, bickering again.
“You seem to be having a good time.”
“What about her?”
At that time, CEO Yoon Gayeon, who met as a judge in the audition for “Dreams of the Sun Rising”, approached.
“Hello, CEO. Producer, it’s been a while since I saw the writer.”
“Hooray. Yes. Long time no see, Kang Jinseok. But Jinseok, I’m not the representative anymore. I went to another company.”
“Another company?”
“Yes. Now I’m a vice president of OS Entertainment.”
This time, Min Kyungsoo laughed and told Yoon Gayeon.
“Oh, is our sister here? I heard you might not be able to come because you are so busy at work.”
“I’m here to work. But why am I your sister? Min Kyungsoo is two years older than me.”
“How old are you? If it’s an older sister, it’s an older sister.”
“I don’t think so. You’re a bit of a young mind.”
“That’s my charm.”
It was like a conversation between Park Woohyun and Min Kyungsoo.
“You two must be quite close.”
As I stood staring blankly at the two, Min Kyungsoo said.
“Oh, Jinseok. I told you before when I had an audition and ate. I changed the CEO of the company I originally had.”
“Yes.”
“The original CEO is this person. After she left, the company became a little strange.”
“Oh, yes.”
It was a very small world. I can’t believe the relationship is so intertwined.
Yoon Gayeon looked at me and said.
“Did Kyungsoo really say that?” “I’m gone and the company is weird?”
“Yes. And I also said, ‘I’m going to move to a company like Mr. Jeon,’ and I said, ‘Do you have any plans to go with me?'”
Yoon Gayeon said, hitting Min Kyungsoo’s back as if she was proud.
“Kyungsoo! It was worth raising you”
“I grew up on my own.”
“Thud. This is not why you reap black-haired beasts.”
Yoon Gayeon shook her head and kept talking to Min Kyungsoo.
“Oh, you said something interesting earlier.”
“A funny story?”
“Oh, I heard you’re working on the same work. Min Kyungsoo, you’re the villain in the lead role of actor Kang Jinseok.”
“Yes.”
Min Kyungsoo said calmly as if it was not a big deal. On the other hand, Yoon Gayeon asked interestingly.
“Park Woohyun was working with Kang Jinseok and got eaten during the reading. What do you think?”
When asked by Yoon Gayeon, everyone around him looked at Min Kyungsoo.
With a look full of tension and doubts.
Unlike the atmosphere around him, however, Min Kyungsoo even smiled lightly and said.
“To be honest, I think I’m going to be eaten, too.”
“···.”
“But that’s why I like it rather. In the script for the final episode, there is a scene where “Boss” is robbed by Jinseok, and I don’t think it needs acting. Just follow what Jinseok does! Method complete.”
“···.”
“I’m sure the article is no joke.” “As expected of Min Kyungsoo.” Like a delicious villain.”
Min Kyungsoo said with a chuckle.
Yoon Gayeon, who listened carefully to the words, crossed her arms.
“Kyungsoo’s eyes have improved a lot since I haven’t seen him.” You know exactly how good other actors are.”
“My eyes opened when I saw Jinseok’s acting. Something’s different about him.”
Producer Kim Mansoo, who was listening to the story, said.
“But vice president. Didn’t you say you had something to say to the actors here?”
“Oh, that’s right. I forgot while talking with Kyungsoo.”
Yoon Gayeon erased her playful smile and made eye contact with the actors with a serious face.
“Kyungsoo, Woohyun, and Lee Nayeon.”
“···.”
“Han Jehoon and Lee Hyunah, too.” I understand that the contract with the agency is over now, or you’re over, but I’d like to take you to our company this time.”
A confident attitude that can be clearly heard even in a noisy party.
“Oh, of course.”
While everyone was focusing on Yoon Gayeon, she smiled and reached out to me as well.
“Actor Kang Jinseok, too.”
