Chapter 125: Do you know who gave it to you?
Chapter 125 < Do you know who gave it to you? >
The emperor and Lee Kang, who had become haggard, caused a commotion in the courtroom. And the prisoners who wore prison clothes were hit by eggs thrown by someone and got on the escort bus, and Shim Naekwan, who was thought to be dead, followed them tied to a rope. Seong Hyunwoo didn’t kill Shim Naekwan after all. He just shot the floor.
That’s how the emperor and Lee Kang’s crimes were revealed, and Lee Seoeun became the next emperor.
Seong Hyunwoo, who saw Lee Seoeun wearing a crown, turned around and left the palace, and the scene changed to the rooftop of the building where they often met.
“Thank you for keeping your promise.”
Lee Seoeun, who stood next to Seong Hyunwoo, who was sitting alone, looked at the distant sky.
“The contract period is over… What are we?”
“I don’t know…”
“…I have a promise to keep too.”
Lee Seoeun, who hesitated, stood in front of Seong Hyunwoo. Then she knelt down on one knee. Seong Hyunwoo, who noticed what she was going to say, smiled slightly. He remembered when Lee Seoeun shouted ‘I want to marry Woo Hyun!’ when they were young.
“Will you marry me?”
Seeing that, Seong Hyunwoo felt a surge of emotion and opened his mouth.
“…Okay.”
The main OST of the drama played as background music, and behind-the-scenes photos came out instead of the preview.

[Male actor] What is Yoo Yeon Seo? +203
Honestly, I didn’t expect ‘National Bird’. I admit that Yoo Yeon Seo’s acting has improved, but honestly, when I think of Woo Soon-gan’s destructive acting, the taste is not felt at all in the spicy noodles I’m eating now.
But I just wanted to watch it out of loyalty because my goddess Shin Yewon was in it.
And there was also the fact that the writer was Min Joo-kyung. I know he’s good at making clichés work, but it’s too obvious. Who likes Cinderella stories these days… Of course, making Shin Yewon an emperor is a progress for Min Joo-kyung.
But there was a gif that captivated me.

“Wow, you’re an idol, you’re an idol.”
Han Daepyo, the representative, stuck out his tongue at the pile of gifts that filled one side of the office. He already had a lot of fans, but the agency was busy as a lot of influx fans were created by the hit of the drama.
The number of followers of the agency’s SNS, which posted pictures of the actors as a fan service, also increased explosively.
“What is this?”
He picked up a white envelope on his desk. It looked like a wedding invitation with a silver sticker sealed. Did one of the staff give it to him? He opened the envelope and laughed.
“Heh…”
The wedding invitation had Yoo Yeon Seo and Shin Yewon’s names on it, not the staff’s. If a stranger saw it, they would think they were really getting married. It was a sophisticated wedding invitation.
There are people who are obsessed with the main couple of the hit drama. They are called ‘delusional’ and even after the drama ends, they sell memories and claim that they are dating beyond the characters.
Park Siljang, who came in with the gifts rolling outside, laughed at what Han Daepyo was holding.
“Funny, right? Did you get hooked too?”
“Status. What should we do at times like this?”
“I don’t know either. We’ve been quiet.”
It got noisy since they recruited Yoon Yeon Seo.
But Director Park was just as confused. Halo Media was focused on production, and it was a small company that raised a few rookies and actors with thick bones in the movie industry. It was the first time they had an actor who was as popular as an idol.
‘And I didn’t know it would be Yoon Yeon Seo…’
The president smiled as he thought so. He had the confidence to handle the criticism, but this popularity… It was a good thing to be popular. With the impact of ‘National Bird’, this phenomenon seemed to continue rather than being a simple one-time thing.
“Hello, Mr. President, Mr. Director.”
“Oh, Tae-gyeom is here? What’s that?”
“The foreigners outside gave it to me. How did they know I was his manager?”
It’s not incomprehensible. Even the secretary Lim Seung-hyun recognized him, and it must have been easier to recognize the manager who was always with him. Tae-gyeom put down the paper bags and dolls he brought in a pile of gifts.
“I mean, even if I tell them not to send it, they send it anyway… I can’t throw this away either.”
“Mr. President, what if you throw it away and someone takes a picture? I’ll deliver it to him.”
“He doesn’t usually take these things, does he?”
“He seems to like it secretly. Isn’t it okay to have fan letters or small gifts?”
“Really? Then let’s check if there’s anything weird first.”
The three of them sat down on the floor and rummaged through the gifts. They had to check if there was anything dangerous for protection. Fan letters were the same. It would be a big deal if there was something strange written on them.
“Wow… What country’s letters are these?”
“Should we throw them away?”
“Ugh, I don’t feel good about throwing them away… He won’t be able to read this, will he?”
“Mr. Director, he’s good at reading. Should we try to translate it roughly?”
“Just put it aside for now.”
They put the ambiguous things aside and threw the strange things into the trash without hesitation. There were so many gifts that they didn’t think they would finish today.
“Did you know that they gave free coffee to our employees at the cafe in front?”
“Why? Oh, don’t tell me it’s because of the people who came to see him?”
Director Park nodded. The sales of the nearby cafe increased sharply as the information that Yoon Yeon Seo often visited the agency was revealed.
“No wonder they sold all the sandwiches they didn’t sell.”
“Mr. Director.”
“Huh?”
Director Park looked at Tae-gyeom with a serious expression. Tae-gyeom carefully examined a letter. The envelope didn’t have anything printed on it, so it seemed like he came to the agency and gave it himself.
“…Do you know who gave this?”
“I don’t know. Our staff received it.”
“Did it get caught on CCTV?”
“Maybe? But why, is there anything strange in it? Throw it away.”
Tae-gyeom mumbled and put the letter in his pocket. The content was suspicious and he thought Yoon Yeon Seo should check it himself. Yoon Yeon Seo, who had doubts about Lee Hee-seo’s death, it was strange that Lim Seung-hyun, who was always behind Yoon Yeon Seo, kept leaving his seat.
Director Park didn’t think much of it and focused on opening the gifts.
“Then, how are we going to adjust our schedule? What does he want to do first?”
“Uh, I think he’s going to rest for a while.”
“What?”
The president, who was listening, jumped up. Almost every company was looking for Yoon Yeon Seo because of the hit of ‘National Bird’. The agency’s phone was already on fire, and there were even people who called the president and asked him to model their products.
“What do you mean, you have to row a boat when the water comes in, not launch an aircraft carrier?”
Tae-gyeom nodded and mechanically opened the gift wrap. He looked blank. The president shouted. It didn’t matter that Tae-gyeom was different from usual.
“He doesn’t even want it, does he?”
“…He’s not a person who needs money desperately, you know.”
The president closed his mouth. He couldn’t refute it.
He’s not just any company, but the third generation of Joo Sung, who can play and eat for the rest of his life with just the stock dividends, even if he just breathes. He also runs a personal investment company that makes enough profit to make a name for himself in the industry. And there was also news that the movie that Yoon Yeon Seo participated in as a production investor made a lot of money.
“That’s, that…”
And Joo Chairman was retiring from his position and giving his shares to his children and grandchildren. There were articles that could be seen without boredom. How much would he get as the son of the next chairman?
The president, who was stuttering for a moment, took a deep breath.
“Money is, necessary! No matter how rich you are, who would refuse money! He has to worry about taxes from now on if he wants to inherit it!”
Why are you asking me that. Tae-gyeom frowned.
“He doesn’t care.”
“No!”
The president was frustrated and hit his chest. He couldn’t do all the ads that came in because of image management, but his body price was so huge that the more ads he did, the more money he got from the agency. He could make a lot of money with just a few big ones… The president looked sad.
“Can’t you persuade him well?”
“Mr. President, do you think that will work?”
“It worked well before.”
“That’s because he had a passion for his work. He didn’t care about advertising.”
Han, the representative, was speechless again. In the quiet office, only the sound of them ripping open the wrapping of the gifts was heard.
After a long silence, Han raised his head.
“Then let’s just shoot three!”
“I’ll try to talk to him.”
Lee Tae-gyeom ignored his desperate shout. He knew that he wouldn’t agree anyway.

“First of all, this is what we investigated.”
“What is it, you have more than what I investigated?”
Baek Seo-joon opened his mouth wide at the thickness of the paper pile. How could they dig up more information than the police, even though he was tied up?
“We checked the dead people first… There was no suspicion. The traffic accident perpetrators didn’t have anything special either.”
“Really?”
He thought he could find a clue… Then he had no choice but to investigate all the survivors. Yoo Yeon Seo bit his tongue. Lately, there were many people who blocked his way. He stood out too much for investigating alone. Did he do ‘Guk-sae’ for nothing…
“My lord.”
“Are you here? You came together?”
“We met in the elevator. Hello.”
“This is my brother’s friend.”
Lee Tae-gyeom looked at Baek Seo-joon’s face, and Yoo Yeon Seo briefly explained. Lee Tae-gyeom put down the pile of stuff he brought on the sofa.
“What is all this?”
“Letters and small gifts that came to you. I checked them in advance, and there’s nothing special, so just take them.”
“Why are there so many?”
Yoo Yeon Seo didn’t say to take them back even though he grumbled. He felt strange to receive affectionate words from people he didn’t know, but he didn’t feel bad.
When he read the fan letters written in clumsy language, he felt like he was looking at the picture that Raul, the kid he saw in ‘Welcome to the Guest House’, drew for him.
“I told you I’m taking a break for a while, right?”
“Yeah, but I don’t think the representative will give up easily.”
Han, the representative, was stubborn… Yoo Yeon Seo shook his head as he clicked his tongue. Anyway, ‘Guk-sae’ would be popular until the end of the year, so it would be okay to rest for a while.
“I got it. I’ll think about it. Go ahead.”
“Just a minute…”
“Why?”
Lee Tae-gyeom quickly grabbed Yoo Yeon Seo, who was about to turn away. He hesitated as he took out a letter he had hidden in his pocket.
“I think you should see this.”
“What is this?”
“It’s a letter that came to you… The content is suspicious.”
What? If he gave it to him separately like this… Yoo Yeon Seo opened the letter and checked the content. He opened his eyes wide.
