133 – What kind of fight were we having?
Today is Wednesday.
In other words, it is a day when there are club activities in the afternoon.
“It seems like it’s been a while since I saw you participating in some kind of club activity.”
I nodded at Cha Mu-sik’s words, which seemed to have been said inadvertently during club activities.
As he said, it was the last time he participated before the Lee Da-hye stalker incident occurred, so it is natural for him to feel that way.
For reference, the seat next to me was still Cha Mu-sik, and in the back, Da-hye Lee and So-young Seol were sitting together and chatting happily.
Seol So-young and Da-hye Lee are close enough to hang out together at school, but for some reason, they seem to be getting along especially well these days.
When I thought about it, I had a strong feeling that those two didn’t want to compete over me.
Perhaps it’s because such a difficult process didn’t occur, and in the end, it ended up being a happy ending?
Of course, for that purpose, I revealed my identity and took a rather large gamble.
Of course, he is paying a heavy price for revealing his identity.
Now, wherever I go, people recognize me and whisper about me, and especially at school, there seem to be a lot of students who find me a burden.
Well, it may be hard to believe that he is the same age as the writer 927, but it may be a burden to be in the same space with someone like that.
Of course… ….
“I listened carefully to what you said to me at the press conference. “My passion ultimately ignited a fire in your heart.”
It was completely irrelevant to this man who approached me.
Park Ha-jun, head of the theater and film department.
For some reason, he was standing in front of me with a kind smile on his face.
The problem here is that I have never said anything like that at a press conference.
I only said that it had a small impact in a positive sense, and I didn’t say a word of exaggeration, as if I had started the fire myself.
So, I just conveyed the thoughts I just had…….
“I felt like I did a good job of becoming an actor in the sense that I influenced the writer of 927.”
“Use…” Senior Ha Jun. “I’m not really curious.”
Hmm. It looks like he has no intention of listening at all.
As far as I know, Park Ha-jun respects author 927, that is, me.
If I didn’t have that mindset in the first place, I wouldn’t have thought of or created this club.
In that sense, considering that I was talking to the object of respect right in front of me, the reaction was quite boring. In a way, should it be said that it is similar to Cha Mu-sik?
Of course, I prefer this.
It is of course better for me to be able to talk comfortably like this rather than feeling burdened and not being able to talk well.
“On the other hand, I really have a question about you. To be exact, to author 927… Should I say that?”
It was then.
Park Ha-jun opened his mouth with a very serious expression, unlike before.
Anyway, why did you bother to mention the name of the 927 author to ask this question?
“Itaewon Revolution. “Why did you cast me as the male lead?”
I couldn’t answer Park Ha-jun’s question right away.
What was Park Ha-jun’s intention in asking such a question?
If you think about it a little, you will find the answer.
To be honest, Park Ha-jun at that time was not as famous as he is now, and was living a life of almost obscurity.
A famous screenwriter would have offered the male lead role to such a new actor, so it was quite an artificial situation from Park Ha-joon’s perspective.
In other words, how did he know his existence and how did he even recognize his talent? This was the gist of Park Ha-jun’s question.
In fact, Park Ha-jun’s question was quite a sharp question, and at the same time, there was one more person in this club who could have asked such a question.
“… ….”
From noble mtl dot com
Seol So-young was staring intently at me, who had been talking with Park Ha-jun earlier.
Maybe she, like Park Ha-joon, also has these questions.
Anyway, the question Park Ha-jun asked was a bit of a sensitive topic for me.
Because I knew the original work of ‘Flower-Like Couple’, I knew of Park Ha-joon’s existence from the beginning, and I knew how talented he was……
The answer
Is probably harder to believe than revealing that I am a 927 writer.
“Hmm?”
What….
Looking at that innocent face, you might just take what I say at face value.
Of course, the same may be true for Seol So-young.
However, even if that were the case, I had no intention of revealing the secrets of this world to anyone.
There was no reason to say it, because the fact that this world was a world in a drama and that one was a character there could be very confusing to that person.
“I wanted to give the male protagonist a different feel. So, I searched for new actors instead of the famous actors I always watched on TV, and by chance I happened to watch a drama starring a new actor named Park Ha-joon. At that moment, it just dawned on me. If this person…… “
“Did you hang out with Kang Cheol, the main character of Itaewon Revolution?”
“Yes. “It almost felt like that.”
“Hmm….”
Big Hajun looked very dissatisfied after hearing my answer.
It looks like he doesn’t believe it at all.
Could it be that you vaguely know that what I just said was a lie because of the setting of the original work, which is so damn good that it was useless?
The conclusion was that it was clear that it was not a good setting for me, who was currently talking to Park Ha-jun.
“Then…” … “
Soon, that was when Park Ha-jun was trying to say something to me.
“Hey, Seo Eun-woo! “Then what happened to our bet!!!”
Someone barged into the theater and film department’s dormitory.
A female student approaches me with a loud voice and a much more dissatisfied expression than Park Ha-jun.
Kang Ye-rin, the de facto leader of the theater department, visited the club room.
For your information, Kang Ye-rin is not an official member of our club, but she continued to come and sit in our club room during club activities.
So, I am not surprised that she visited the club room, but what is important to note here is that she is getting angry at me by mentioning the word ‘bet’.
Kang Ye-rin and I made something that could be called a bet only once.
That is, the losing side of the results of the Korean Youth Theater Festival effectively becomes a slave to the winning side.
Honestly, it’s all in the past and I’ve completely forgotten about it.
In the first place, the result of this bet was that I won, and in fact, there was no penalty.
In that sense……
“What are you betting on all of a sudden?”
“Hey, hey. “Don’t you know that the Yanghak controversy over the 927 Writers’ Contest is coming out right now?”
“It’s a controversy over the competition…… ?”
When I asked again with a puzzled expression, Cha Mu-sik, who was next to me, quickly explained the reason.
As the title also includes the word, the Korean Youth Theater Festival is a competition for growing theater dreamers, and in fact, it was a competition for amateur teenagers.
So, I received a lot of attention for showing an overwhelming performance as a teenager in this competition, but in reality, that was not the case at all.
In reality, it was a popular metaphor that the 927 writer, who was already a professional among professionals, had participated in a youth contest and swept away the dreams of growing dreamers as if it were a natural disaster.
The problem was that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the 927 writer’s participation in the Korean Youth Theater Festival.
Why is the author, who is already close to completion, a teenager? Why did Seo Eun-woo and the hottest celebrities in Korea participate in the contest together?
If you can raise questions, you can raise them endlessly, but the end result was that the theater and film department at Hanbit Arts High School was in a ridiculous weight class that exceeded the level of a youth competition.
Because of this, there was a joke-like story going around about the Yanghak controversy, and at the same time, Kang Ye-rin, who took second place in the competition, was being re-evaluated.
Roughly speaking, what kind of fight was Kang Ye-rin fighting? … With that feeling.
“After hearing this, senior Kang Ye-rin, what kind of fight were you having?”
“What are you going to do if those words come out of your mouth!!! “You were sure from the beginning that you would win, right?”
“Of course. I don’t make losing bets. “It’s a bit hard to call it a substitute, but I gave you feedback anyway.”
“Okay. That definitely helped a lot. But I still feel like I was scammed.”
“Hmm? “Then what do you want from me?”
“It’s simple. “Go beyond feedback and accept me as a disciple.”
I couldn’t believe my ears for a moment.
What kind of disciple are you talking about all of a sudden?
“I am the world’s 927 writer. Wouldn’t it be better for me to have a disciple like myself?”
Kang Ye-rin then said that with a confident face.
Wow… ….
Anyway, you said those words from your own mouth?
If you’re like me, you’ll never do it because you’re embarrassed.
The problem is that looking at that proud appearance, I have no idea what the problem is.
Anyway, I have no intention of accepting a student like Kang Ye-rin mentioned.
I will be busy with my own work from now on, so where will I have time to teach anyone?
And I don’t have the confidence to teach someone that coherently.
In the first place……
“If you are senior Kang Ye-rin, you will catch up to me in no time without needing my teaching.”
“…… ?”
“Why are you looking like you heard something strange? Sincerely, try hard. “He is the most talented person I know.”
“What, what are you saying!”
Kang Ye-rin suddenly turned her back on me.
When I give her a compliment, I see that her face immediately turns red, so she is a very honest person.
“Senior Hajun, isn’t that flirting?”
“Okay. “It looks like our 927 writer isn’t satisfied with just two people.”
At that time, I heard the whispering sounds of Park Ha-jun and Cha Mu-sik, who were watching the conversation between me and Kang Ye-rin from the side.
Oh, you guys……
Can you hear everything?
Honestly, this is a topic that is too troublesome to refute.
It is difficult for one person to handle Seol So-young and Da-hye Lee at the same time, so would I just go crazy and add more women?
In the first place……
“… ….”
“… ….”
If that’s the case, then what are you going to do to those two people who were staring at Kang Ye-rin behind me with a friendly smile…….
Hmm. Of course, it would be better not to know.
