Possessed 10 Million Actors

The filming site of SKC Broadcasting Station’s representative entertainment show, <The Talk Show>.

Preparations for recording were in full swing.

“Recording will start soon!”

“Hey! Are you going to use the lighting as is?”

“The PD told me to put it first!”

<The Talk Show> is an entertainment program that presents brief current affairs talks and small talent shows.

The program is usually recorded late in the evening, but today it was filmed early in the morning due to the cast’s schedule.

This time’s guests are Lee Narin and Min Kyungsoo, who appeared on <The Talk Show> to promote <Dreams of the Sun Rising>.

After a while, the host announced the start of recording.

“Today, we featured a rising star and an established star of Korean dramas. Min Kyungsoo! And this is Lee Narin!”

“Hello! “This is Min Kyungsoo!”

“Hello. “This is Lee Narin.”

Min Kyungsoo, who spoke in a playful yet cool way, true to his personality, and Lee Narin, who spoke in a noble manner, true to her image, greeted them.

“There’s no need for an introduction, right? They are very famous people.”

As the host spoke in a subdued voice, Min Kyungsoo spoke as if he were fussing.

“Ah, please introduce me anyway. When other people come out, they show us their works and albums.”

“Haha, just kidding. Now then, you two will be on the highlight list!”

The recording continued for a long time after that. Since they were very veteran broadcasters, the proceedings were smooth.

Perhaps that’s why both the PD and writers were smiling with satisfaction.

After the recording continued for about two hours, the PD shouted.

“Okay, Take a 15-minute break and then we’ll resume!”

“I’ll take a rest!”

“Ah, no matter how I look at that light, it’s strange. Can’t I change it?”

When the camera stopped, Min Kyungsoo spoke to Lee Narin comfortably as usual.

“Hey, Lee Narin. What are you going to talk about when you promote your work later? I’m going to do exactly what the author wrote.”

“I’m thinking about doing as the author wrote. I brought up something else for no reason…”

Wooooow.

At that time, Lee Narin’s cell phone rang.

‘There is no particular place where I can contact you… Who is it?’

When I took a quick look, it said ‘Junior Kang Jinseok.’

‘Kang Jinseok? Why did Jinseok send a text message…’

Since there was a lot of break time left anyway, Lee Narin checked the text message.

——

Hello, senior.

This is Kang Jinseok.

You got home without any trouble yesterday, right? I made it back home…

——

‘Heh… ‘This sounds like Jinseok.’

Narin Lee could sense Jinseok’s personality even from the text. He seemed polite and very upright, different from today’s new actors who only act formally on the outside.

‘I like it, but… ‘Why did he send such a long text message?’

——

···The reason I contacted you like this is that I wanted to ask for a letter of recommendation for Seoguk University.

Since you mentioned it yesterday, I’ve been thinking about it personally, and I decided to follow your advice and go to college…

——

As Narin looked at her cell phone closely, Min Kyungsoo asked from next to her.

“Why are you so serious? “What’s going on?”

“Oh, it’s nothing serious. Jinseok asked for a letter of recommendation for Seoguk University.”

Narin Lee spoke calmly as if it was no big deal. However, there was a sense of satisfaction in her voice, as if someone had asked for something from her.

Min Kyungsoo, who couldn’t have known that, spoke in a slightly disappointed voice.

“He didn’t contact me? Hey! “I have it too, so why is he asking only you? I can do it too?”

“Honestly, if you were a senior, would you ask someone like you to write a letter of recommendation? “Recommendations start with the image, just like mine…”

Min Kyungsoo held the back of his neck as if he was dumbfounded by Narin’s words. He then called his manager, who was talking to the staff from afar.

“No, that’s ridiculous. Hey, Donghoon! Give me my phone!”

“Yes, brother!”

When the manager handed over the cell phone, Min Kyungsoo immediately called someone.

[Yes, senior. This is Kang Jinseok.]

“Hey, Jinseok! I’m really disappointed.”

‘Why did you call me…?’

[Hey! Jinseok! I’m really disappointed.]

What a sudden disappointment. Did I make some mistakes yesterday?

‘That can’t be possible.’

“Seniors. What do you mean by that?”

When I asked again, senior Min Kyungsoo sounded genuinely sad.

[I heard that you asked Narin to write a letter of recommendation for Seoguk University! Why did I leave it alone!]

“Oh, that’s it…”

‘How did you know that?’

While I hesitated for a moment, I suddenly heard a loud noise.

I couldn’t hear exactly what he was saying, but it seemed to roughly mean something like, ‘Why are you bothering the child?’ or, ‘No, I’m not bullying him, I’m asking!’

‘More than that, that is Narin senior’s voice? Are you two together?’

Since they are so famous, they could have been on schedule together.

It was early, but they could film at any time.

After a while, senior Min Kyungsoo spoke again.

[Hey! I’m currently recording <The Talk Show> right now. You know <The Talk Show>, right?]

“Ah yes! I know.”

<The Talk Show> is an entertainment show that all celebrities who are popular, likely to become successful, or who could become successful go through at least once. There was no way I didn’t know.

[I was going to bring up your story later when I was promoting my work, but if this happens, will you be disappointed or not?]

“···My story?”

‘Are you trying to say my name on <The Talk Show>?’

While I was thinking alone, I heard a loud noise again on the other side of the phone.

This time, ‘Lies! you said earlier that you are speaking just as the author wrote!’, ‘When did I!’ ‘I was going to tell them that Jinseok is a good actor!’

What should I answer?

I do not know.

‘hmm···. ‘The guys said that if you’re not sure, it’s best to apologize quickly.’

“I’m sorry, senior.”

When I apologized, senior Min Kyungsoo spoke in a shaken voice.

[No. If you suddenly say sorry, I become a narrow-minded person. These days, I’ve only dealt with scoundrels like Park Woohyun, but now that I’m meeting such an upright junior, I can’t get my head around it.]

[It’s not about being a narrow-minded person; I am actually narrow-minded. I’m frustrated because I can’t catch my junior…]

[Oh, you be quiet!]

Senior Min Kyungsoo, who shouted loudly, immediately spoke.

[Recording begins. Hey, anyway, Jinseok. It’s okay, and Narin said that multiple people can write letters of recommendation. I will write it for you too, so prepare well. Okay?]

“Yes, senior! All right. Thank you…”

Ddu-

The phone hung up before I could finish speaking.

“I guess it’s okay…?”

Min Kyungsoo was a good person and seemed like a senior, but he had an unpredictable personality. What’s surprising is that such a person becomes serious when acting.

‘So I guess I’ll be an actor for a long time.’

Leaving aside thoughts about Min Kyungsoo and Lee Narin, I got dressed.

Because it was already time to go to my part-time job.

“So, the work we are appearing in this time, <Dream of the Sun Rising>…”

Min Kyungsoo was inwardly impressed by Lee Narin’s comment calmly promoting their work.

‘As expected, Narin speaks really well. Even though she says the same thing, she is definitely different.’

When Narin finished her speech, the host smiled brightly and said,

“Wow, I’m so excited! “Then, this time, I would like to ask actor Min Kyungsoo to say something about the work!”

“Yes. “I think Narin Lee has told us everything we can say about the plot and development of the drama, so I’ll tell you a slightly different story.”

“Something else?”

“Yes. Actually, we had a script reading yesterday. “Something interesting happened there.”

What Min Kyungsoo is saying now is not what the writers previously wrote.

So the writers behind the camera started discussing something, and the producer listened even more as if he was curious.

“Is this something fun?”

“Yes. Woohyun… no, Park Woohyun also appears in our work. “But that friend couldn’t read the script properly yesterday because he was overwhelmed by the acting of a new actor.”

The host asked in a surprised voice.

“Woohyun Park couldn’t read the script?”

“Yes. Since the new actor recited his lines first, Park Woohyun was so surprised that he couldn’t say his lines. But honestly, I was very surprised because it was my first time seeing acting like that.”

While Min Kyungsoo was speaking, the writers hastily wrote something on the whiteboard. It was a message to be sent to the host.

Although it was not a live broadcast, the writers conveyed the content on a whiteboard to avoid interrupting the recording flow.

The host also checked the contents and asked Min Kyungsoo if he was familiar with this type of thing.

“Is this someone whose name everyone will know?”

“You probably don’t know. He’s really a rookie who just debuted. Yes?”

Min Kyungsoo naturally handed over the speaking role to Lee Narin. Then Narin nodded and continued her words.

“Yes. His name is Kang Jin-seok, and this is his first TV drama. But he is a really attractive actor.”

The host spoke in an admiring voice at Narin’s words.

“And… he’s a rookie, but I can’t believe he was cast in this work. It looks like his skills are great.”

“Yes. Our work is the debut work of producer Kim Mansoo, and his skills are good enough to be used boldly in such a work.”

The writers gave a thumbs up to Narin Lee’s clear comments as if she were reading a script. But this was not the end of Narin’s praise.

“He’s still a rookie, so he’s acting while working part-time. In the meantime, he works really hard at acting. He is also very polite.”

“After listening to what you say, it seems like you care a lot about your junior.”

“That’s right. And he is a junior that I would like to work with in the future. I guess he’s a talented actor.”

For a long time after that, stories about ‘new actor’ Kang Jinseok blossomed.

Min Kyungsoo and Lee Narin are waiting for their respective vans in the parking lot after finishing recording.

Min Kyungsoo stretched loudly and said.

“Ugh~ I’m tired. Narin, are you going home?”

“Yes. What about you senior?”

“Me too. I haven’t slept a wink since yesterday and I feel like I’m dying.”

“That’s because I’m old. You can’t hide your age.”

“Ugh… Let’s see if you don’t get old.”

“I manage myself, so even when I grow old, I’m different from my seniors. Senior drinks every day when he’s not filming.”

“Wow, that’s unlucky. Live like that for the rest of your life.”

While the two were bickering, their respective vans arrived. Min Kyungsoo said as he got into the van first.

“Go in carefully. You worked hard~.”

“Yes. Oh right. Senior, did you hear what the PD said earlier?”

“Like what?”

“Today’s recording was originally supposed to be broadcast next week. But they say it’s coming out this week.”

“Is that possible? I guess there was something they originally wanted to broadcast?”

“They said it was terribly boring and needed more editing. Anyway, I think it would be good for you to know. This will probably be arranged separately by the manager. Still, he said it because he cared about me, so I waved my hand to say thank you.

“Then I’ll just leave you to it.”

“Uh, yes!”

After answering briefly, Min Kyungsoo got into the van and took out his cell phone.

‘I have to tell Jinseok to definitely watch this week’s broadcast. ‘I would be disappointed if he missed the live broadcast while his story was being talked about.’

In SKC’s signature program, two established actors mention a new actor.

This is a huge honor and something to be grateful for as a new actor.

‘I’m sure you’ll enjoy it, right?’

Min Kyungsoo sent a text message to Jinseok with a happy feeling.
