Chapter 52

Chapter 52

It was embarrassing to say that I would give you a car, but Ryu Sungho’s proposal was much more surprising than that.

‘Just in case, I didn’t expect KL to offer recruitment first.’

When I stared at him, Ryu Sungho handed me a document envelope and said.

“First of all, I’ll have to apologize before that. Because that’s the order.”

There were two pictures in the document envelope.

A photo that says “Fifth Director” and a photo of him handing something to Ronald.

Ryu Sungho said, pointing to a picture of the head of the five offices.

“This man is a five-room manager of KL Entertainment. I’m the one who bought Ronald to drop the actor in today’s audition.”

“You really bought Ronald?”

“Yes, other audition officials may have noticed this, but first of all, I think the victim should know.”

When I listened to Ryu Sungho, I felt that the scattered puzzle was fitting.

“This is why Ronald reacted violently to Kwak Jinwook’s words at the audition.”

I was a little angry. It was ridiculous.

“How can you be a judge at an audition?”

Before I could say anything, Ryu Sungho said first.

“The reason I asked to see you today is to apologize for what happened today and to warn you that this will happen every once in a while.”

“What did you say?”

“I’m sure the water level will get higher and higher. That’s how actors 2, 3, 4, and 5 have lived.”

“···.”

“Oh, six rooms will be made soon, so six rooms are included.”

The words were ‘warning’, but for me, it was like a threat.

I wanted to be angry, but I couldn’t feel any hostility in Ryu Sungho’s voice or attitude.

First of all, I decided to talk calmly.

“···So what do you want to say? You didn’t call me to threaten me, did you?”

“I’m sorry if it sounded like a threat. I didn’t mean to do that. It was literally just a ‘warning’. Anyway, what I’d like to say is.”

Ryu Sungho handed over another document envelope. When I checked, it said “exclusive contract” on the first page.

“For the actor’s safe and successful acting life, KL Entertainment and no. I’m telling you to sign a contract with our actor’s room.”

A few months ago, if KL Entertainment had asked to sign a contract, I would have welcomed it with both hands.

KL Entertainment was like the final destination for the actors.

but.

“Not anymore.”

Just because I did a few works doesn’t raise my nose.

I just don’t want to be with a company that tramples on other people’s efforts and passion, buying audition judges.

“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear about today’s story. Of course.”

I put the envelope on the table and slowly got up from my seat.

Then Ryu Sungho spoke in a calm tone that showed no impatience.

“Actor Kang Jinseok.”

“···.”

“First of all, please listen to what I’m trying to say until the end. And then if you don’t like it, I’ll never bother you again.”

“···· Whoo.”

‘Okay. Let’s hear what he says when he talks like that.’

When he sat down again, Ryu Sungho shone his eyes and slightly extended his upper body toward me.

“As I said earlier, KL Entertainment will disturb you like crazy in the future.”

“Like today’s audition?”

“As I said earlier, it’s a ‘low-quality’ prank.”

“···.”

“Whatever you imagine, we’ll try to destroy you in a mean, creative way.”

I said it wasn’t a threat, but it was like a threat.

But I didn’t get scared.

Instead, I was curious.

“Why? Why are you doing this to me?”

When asked my question, Ryu Sungho thought for a moment and continued.

“The beginning was not a big deal.”

“···.”

“The actor hurt Lee Homin’s pride in the audition room for “Spring Without Flowers.” “Do you remember?”

I hurt Lee Homin’s pride.

It seemed to mean having a small verbal fight at the audition and competing for the role of ‘Nakamura’.

“I remember. So what?”

“Lee Homin’s father is a bit of a ‘great’ person. He’s a person who knows a lot of people here and there and has a lot of money.”

“You must be someone who cares terribly for your son.”

“So Lee Homin’s father moved. I tried not to let him film “Spring Without Flowers” itself. You know, right? you almost couldn’t film because it was out of investment.”

There’s no way they don’t know.

At one time, when I opened the entertainment section of the portal site, that was the only article.

“But even though he used his own hands, the work was eventually made. It was even a hit, and the actor became famous.”

With a slight nod, Ryu Sungho kept saying

“If the work was ruined as he intended, that might have ended the ‘punishment’ against actor Kang Jinseok.”

It was ridiculous. You’re only going to do this for that?’

“You thought it was a masterpiece, right?”

“···.”

“In the entertainment industry, a lot of changes because of the pride of being a ‘master’.” Well, even if it’s not in the entertainment industry, it’s the same everywhere.”

Ryu Sungho said with a slight sigh.

“No one in the entertainment industry has ever won against KL Entertainment.”

After finishing his speech, Ryu Sungho got up from his seat.

“But he also doesn’t carelessly about actors from the same company.”

“···.”

“No, if you dare to touch our first room, I won’t stay still.”

I felt pride and confidence in my voice.

“Why?”

It wasn’t like a charade. So I was more concerned.

Why is Ryu Sungho taking care of me like this?

“I want to ask you one question.”

“Ask me anything.”

“Why are you doing this to me?” Like you’re trying to take care of your own family.”

Perhaps it was an unexpected question, his face was perplexed for the first time.

For a while, too. Ryu Sungho, who went back to expressionless, said.

“Why do I care about Kang Jinseok?”

“Yes.”

“That’s…”

Ryu Sungho, who blurted the back words, approached me and said.

“If you become an actor in our first room, I’ll let you know then.”

***

Studio Redcat headquarters where all the auditions scheduled for today are over.

“KL Entertainment, how dare you play tricks on my work?”

After shouting for a long time, the sergeant and the producer took out a cigarette from their arms and bit it in their mouth.

The moment she tried to light a cigarette with her natural hand gestures, she realized Kwak Jinwook’s existence and spit a cigarette out of her mouth.

“I’m sorry. Mr. Kwak. I’ve been mean. . . . .”

Kwak Jinwook bowed his head and said, shaking his hand, as if he was okay with Ha Sarang, who apologized.

“It’s okay, producer Ha. I’m also very angry at their behavior.”

“Whoa, whoa, whoa. . . . Thank you for your understanding.”

Ha Sarang gulped down the cold water.

I asked Kwak Jinwook if he was a little calmed down thanks to this, with a much calmer voice than before.

“By the way, sir. You asked me earlier if I got money from Ronald.”

“Yes.”

“Did you really just poke it?”

Kwak Jinwook answered Ha Sarang’s question with a smile.

“Actually, I got a call from him, too. I want you to cheer up your actors in this movie. If Kang Jinseok auditions, he asks me to drop him.”

“··· Even to the teacher?”

“Yes. I got the same offer as Ronald.”

Ha Sarang grated her teeth.

“KL Entertainment, these pups make you come out with your personality. “How should I tighten it so that it’s well-coordinated?”

Kwak Jinwook shrugged his shoulders and said to Ha Sarang, who was verbally abusive.

“Well, well, if you need my help, please feel free to let me know. I’m also a little angry at those thunderstorms who are trying to ruin a young and promising actor.”

“Thank you.”

“However, you have to be careful no matter how certain the evidence is. You know, KL Entertainment is a big deal

Ha Sarang gave her head to Kwak Jinwook, who spoke anxiously.

“Yes. But I’m going to drop all KL Entertainment actors.” This is their fault, so they can’t say anything about it.”

“Then I’ll have to watch all the roles again. Is that okay?”

“It’s all right. I recorded the audition video anyway, so I’ll watch it and select it.”

“Hmm… I think there will be a lot of people.”

“It’ll work out if you stay up all night for about three days.”

Kwak Jinwook threw his tongue when he said it as if it wasn’t a big deal on the 3rd.

“Hwiyu, ··. That’s amazing. All right. Then I’ll get going. Please contact me again.”

“Yes, sir. Thank you for your hard work.”

Just before Kwak Jinwook left the room, Ha Sarang asked.

“By the way, sir. What happened to you going into the agency? You said you were contacted by a new agency.”

“Oh, yes. I’m still thinking about it. There’s no actor there, so. I’m going to see which actor comes in and go in.”

Kwak Jinwook finished with a big smile.

“I don’t want to ruin my last years by going to a company with people like a fool.”

“If it’s a company that wants to take you there, wouldn’t it be easy to skip it on its own?”

Kwak Jinwook’s face smiled as if he felt good about the words that gave him a high evaluation.

“I hope so. Rumor has it that the CEO is working hard on recruiting the first actor, and I think it would be fun for me to work at such a company.”

Late at night when everyone is asleep.

Seongsu warehouse workers’ day begins with eating chocolate bars.

Park Chunsam said with a lot of chocolate bars in his mouth.

“As expected, stealing chocolate bars is the best. It tastes different from buying and eating with my own money

Kim, who saw it, said it as if he was pathetic.

“Oh, my. Tsk, tsk. Jinseok bought me a lot of chocolate bars so we wouldn’t fight. “But you steal it again?”

“Huh? Jinseok bought it for me because he got paid for his appearance?”

“Yes.”

“It’s a waste, so it’s been a long time since I took it in the refrigerator at home.”

“···.”

“But I can’t help but eat chocolate bars, so I’ll steal yours class president’s and eat it.” “Isn’t it?”

“It’s strangely convincing.”

When the two of us were talking about small things.

Thump!

Someone knocked on the warehouse door.

“Who is it? Were there people who were late?”

“If there had been a late student, the president would have been going crazy.”

Kim opened the door yawning.

“Ha-am, ha-am, ha-am, ha-am. Who’s show?”

“Is this the warehouse where actor Kang Jinseok worked?”

“Yes, that’s true. How did you know that?”

Mr. Kim scanned the people outside the door.

The thing that stands out the most is the bald head standing at the front.

You look like my age, but you’re already losing your mind.’

It was a clean bald head, seemingly without any chance of resuscitation.

While feeling sorry for Kim as the same hair loss person, bald head said.

“Oh, my name is Oh Haneul. May I see the manager of the warehouse?”

“What? Who’s in charge? “Did you come to see the leader of the team?”

Oh Haneul handed his business card to Kim. Kim carefully examined the business card.

[OS International, CEO, Oh Haneul]

“Oh, this is the company that subcontracted our warehouse, right?”

It was the largest company that Mr. Kim knew.

A good company that sends bonuses for Chuseok and Lunar New Year despite being subcontracted.

By the way.

“The CEO of a place like that is coming here?”

Kim, who had been agonizing for a while, burst into laughter as if he was dumbfounded.

“Put. That can’t be the case.”

Kim said, looking down at his bald head.

“Hey, bald head.”

“Are you bald?”

“Oh, you punk. Why are you playing this game at this hour because you have nothing to do?”

“No, what’s that?…”

“Phew. If you’re old and have nothing to do, wash your feet and sleep at home. What kind of representative is a representative?”

“···.”

“I see your sincerity in digging up your business card and playing around, so I just send it to you.” There are a lot of scary people here, so just go back.”

“Oh, no. I really….”

“Oh, okay.”

Bang!

When Kim responded roughly and closed the door nervously, Park Chunsam asked.

“Hey, Mr. Kim. Who is it?”

Kim said as if it was nothing.

“I don’t know. It was crazy.”

“Crazy guy?”

“Uh. I heard he represents OS International.”

Park Chunsam smiled in vain at Kim’s words. With the words, “What a new Dora.”

It was then.

“Hey, Mr. Kim!”

The head of the work team came running and shouted loudly.

“Why? I didn’t steal the chocolate bar. Park Chunsam over there. . . . .”

“No, the chocolate bar isn’t the problem. Let’s clean up quickly.”

“Cleaning? Why cleaning? I did it yesterday too, but what are you doing? Tomorrow. Tomorrow.”

The class president shouted as if he was frustrated with Kim, who was talking leisurely.

“Oh, come on!”

“Oh, why!”

“Sigh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. You know OS International, right

“I know.”

“I heard that the headquarters is going to be visited by the CEO of OS International!”

Kim looked at the door he had just closed with a trembling look. Then I asked the class president in a trembling voice.

“Mr. President, are you bald?”
