The Third-Gen Chaebol Becomes a Genius Actor

Chapter 100 < I Couldn’t Say It Again Today >

Yoo Yeon Seo slowly opened his eyes after finishing his performance. Jung Hyun-sik and Director Cheon clapped their hands.

“What do you think?”

He turned his sore neck. He was tired from the stage acting that required a lot of energy, plus the emotional drain. He thought he could learn something from the two experienced people.

“Was the last part your own interpretation?”

“Yes.”

“Why did you do that?”

“Well… it’s about ownership of life.”

Yoo Yeon Seo spread his arms.

“I don’t even have the right to end my own life as I please.”

Director Cheon, who had watched the practice of the theater actor with him, smiled as if he was amused. The previous actor had shown anger and will to live, but Yoo Yeon Seo had shown regret and resignation.

“You have good reflexes.”

“I thought it would be boring to just imitate.”

Yoo Yeon Seo turned his head to the back of the stage where he felt a presence. It seemed like someone was there… He looked back at Director Cheon’s question.

“Why do you act?”

Yoo Yeon Seo couldn’t answer right away. His first motivation was to experience different lives, but now he wasn’t sure.

‘Why did the original stay in the entertainment industry?’

He was curious about the inner situation of the body owner, whom he hadn’t cared much about before. Just following Lee Hee-seo’s footsteps?

“Just because it’s fun.”

The boundary between Kang Jin-hoo and Yoo Yeon Seo was collapsing. He knew that the two were merging as he synchronized his memories, but he wasn’t complete yet, so he was confused about his identity.

“Acting with mixed experiences… it’s good, but you know it’s also very stressful, right?”

“I know. My neck is stiff right now.”

He was a master director, so he could tell how he acted at a glance.

‘Amazing.’

On the other hand, Director Cheon looked at Yoo Yeon Seo again. He had a fast time to immerse himself and a fast time to wake up. He didn’t seem to calculate his actions, but his body moved on its own. He thought it would be interesting if such an actor could fully immerse himself in the role and live as the role even outside the screen.

“Sometimes it’s better to focus only on the role without any other thoughts.”

Of course, he was excellent in that he didn’t lose his acting even though he had room for other thoughts.

‘I didn’t expect much, but he’s pretty good…’

Director Cheon saw potential in Yoo Yeon Seo.

Yoo Yeon Seo nodded at his sharp comment. He had solved his desire to live a different life through acting. He thought method acting would be suitable, but he was worried that he might not be able to wake up from immersion. He was already trying to keep his mind clear from being eroded by the memories of the role of Yoo Yeon Seo.

“Any other advice?”

“You’re too handsome.”

“······?”

“If you want to play various roles, that handsome face is a minus.”

Is that so… He thought briefly, but it wasn’t a bother.

‘Don’t I just have to get the role I want?’

It was a rather arrogant thought, but he was confident that he could get any role he wanted with his background. Of course, it would be difficult in the works of people like Director Cheon, who were in the master class.

“You have a strong presence. Try to kill it on purpose.”

“Well… I disagree. Having a strong presence is your strength. You should think about how to use it well, not kill it rashly.”

“Right, this is something that people feel differently, so adjust it yourself.”

The two people’s opinions were different from those of Park Hyun-jung, the acting teacher who was assigned by the agency. As expected, people have different thoughts, so he had to filter them and find his own way.

“We’ve seen something interesting, so how about a drink for a change?”

“Are you buying, brother? Yeon Seo, let’s go.”

Jung Hyun-sik got up and took the lead. Yoo Yeon Seo also lightly went down the stage and followed them. He was looking forward to what he could get from the drinking party with the two.

(Brother)

As he was leaving the theater, his phone vibrated.

“Hey, bro.”

(Are you busy? If not, let’s have dinner.)

“Finally, our manager is taking a break on the weekend.”

Yoo Yeon Seo rarely joked. He heard Yoo Eun-ho’s small laugh.

“I have an appointment, so I can’t.”

“Really? Then I can’t help it. See you next time.”

“I’ll call you later.”

He was a bit sorry to miss the dinner with Jung Hyun-sik and Cheon Seong-min, but family came first. He had stamped his eyes, so he could ask Jung Hyun-sik to meet again later.

“See you next time.”

And he had gotten some advice on acting from the two actors, so that was enough. He bowed politely and left without hesitation.

“Mr. Im Seung-hyun, let’s go to Joo Sung Hotel.”

“Yes.”

He got out of the theater and got in the car. Lim Seung-hyun’s expression in the rearview mirror didn’t look good.

“Did you have a good talk with your brother?”

“Yes.”

“You don’t seem very close.”

Yu Yeon Seo saw Lim Seung-hyun’s eyebrow twitch. He looked annoyed, unlike his usual calm smile.

“I don’t like him very much.”

“Your brother?”

“Yes.”

Well, everyone has their own situation. I didn’t ask any more and buried myself in the seat.

“Yeon Seo.”

As soon as I got out of the car, I ran into Yoo Eunho, who had just arrived. He had brought his secretary from the company, and he tilted his head slightly in confusion when he saw Lim Seung-hyun following behind me.

“Lim Seung-hyun was here too. Weren’t you resting?”

“It turned out that way.”

I answered, but I felt something was wrong and closed my mouth tightly. He didn’t ask for an answer, but there was a tense atmosphere for some reason.

“Hmm, really?”

Yoo Eunho pretended to let it go and sharpened his eyes. Lim Seung-hyun only followed me during my schedule, not during my personal time. Because I hated it.

The brothers were already eye-catching, and they drew more attention when they came with a secretary behind them.

“How’s work?”

“Just the same. You, are you not going to start your next work right away?”

“I’m taking a break for a while.”

They ignored the stares and went into the private room that the staff guided them to. Lim Seung-hyun and Yoo Eunho’s secretaries sat separately outside the room.

“Mom decided to work at the company, right? She was happy.”

“······I’m just trying to do it without affecting my main job. You look happy. Did something good happen?”

“Ah······Things are going well.”

Maybe Choi Yu-jin bragged to Yoo Gunmin, and Yoo Gunmin grabbed his eldest son and complained. I could see it without looking.

“Yeah, live doing what you want.”

Yoo Eunho’s expression looked very happy as he said that. Was he that happy that things were going well? I wondered what he was doing with his life. I was the one who talked mostly, and he was the one who listened.

“Do you live doing what you want, brother?”

“Well, I’m doing fine in my own way.”

“Really?”

“Really.”

Yoo Eunho smiled as if to tell me not to worry. He looked like someone from a . He was a genius who was famous since he was young, a first-class groom of a chaebol family, and a person who was respected by everyone for his good looks, personality, and work.

“You look like a green character from a romance drama, brother.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, it’s similar to the role I got.”

I had received a lot of roles like that in the synopsis and scripts. There were articles saying that the two brothers were the first-class grooms of a chaebol family, and the image overlapped, so I got a lot of offers.

‘Here we go again.’

I frowned as I kept talking. My hand was shaking again as if I had epilepsy.

“What did you do in the morning?”

“Ah? You went to the theater group of that senior who acted like a drama.”

Yeon Seo briefly summarized what had happened then.

“I saw Mr. Im Seunghyun there… but they didn’t seem to get along very well.”

“Really?”

“Are you unhappy with me?”

I could easily guess that without syncing our memories. The family must have paid less attention to Yeon Seo, who had witnessed Heeseo’s accident. Then, what about the young Yoonho? He must have felt left out.

“No.”

Yoonho looked at me as if he didn’t understand what I was saying. He seemed fine.

Don’t you have anything to say to me? I was about to ask, but I shut my mouth.

[Do you really think mom killed herself?]

That was the question he had in his memory, doubting Heeseo’s death. I was half sure that he had said it to Yoonho.

‘If he hasn’t done anything since then, he must not believe it.’

Just like grandma. Yeon Seo hid his bitter smile and picked up his chopsticks.

“Mr. Im, just a moment.”

At the end of the meal, Yoonho excused himself to go to the bathroom and quickly followed Im Seunghyun, who was waiting for him, to a secluded place.

“Are you doing okay these days?”

He wasn’t asking about the surveillance report, but about his brother’s well-being. He had tried to talk to him a few times before, but Im Seunghyun had always brushed him off. That’s why Yoonho could ask him comfortably.

“…”

Yoonho felt a sense of discomfort here. Im Seunghyun, who would normally answer right away, was silent.

“Director.”

Im Seunghyun clenched his fist, as if he had made up his mind. He had been thinking for days whether to tell Yoonho about Yeon Seo’s unknown health condition. Even if he couldn’t tell him the details, he thought he should give him a hint.

“Please take more care of your brother… than before.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“I can’t say anything more than that.”

Yoonho narrowed his eyes and looked at Im Seunghyun’s expression.

“I don’t know what’s going on… but I understand.”

He understood why Im Seunghyun couldn’t tell him more. He must have had a hard time going against the director he was serving. But if he was willing to leak this much… was there something wrong?

‘Im Seunghyun, who suddenly followed me to my personal time, and who avoided my eyes, saying that he was fine…’

Lost in thought, Yoonho parted with his brother and opened his mouth in the car on his way home.

“Secretary Kim.”

“Yes, director.”

“Find out what Yeon Seo has been doing lately, where he has been going.”

“Understood.”

If he didn’t tell him willingly, he had his own ways. Yoonho had inherited the blood of Yu Chairman, who didn’t care about the means or methods. He was a little worried about how his brother would react later, but he felt uneasy about what Im Seunghyun had said.

(Baek Seojun) Did you tell him?

(Baek Seojun) When are you bringing him?

‘I couldn’t say it today either.’

Yoonho sighed.

-Yeon Seo sighting today

He must have gone to eat with his brother

└He’s been sighted a lot latelyㅠㅠ

└Wow, the zoomed-in phone camera picture looks so handsome

└Listen up, one of them is mine

└So many breadcrumbs, I’m so happyㅠㅠㅠㅠ

└But I wish he would take care of his body and restㅠㅠ The timeline says he came back right after recovering from the car accidentㅠ I’m worried
