-No but her face getting redder and redder makes me feel like I’m at the company dinner too lololol
-Why is Yeoreum so good at drinking? She’s not even getting drunk and having a drink with each staff member..
Looking at how they left just the camera and went drinking, they were already drunk from 19:33 lolㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-I really love this kind of thing, it feels like watching casual private conversations? It’s so funㅜㅜ I wish my actor would do this too..
It was a project with quite good reactions. Especially the feeling of joining celebrities in their private moments seemed to come across as fresh to subscribers.
“Just in time, Yeoreum landed the Creamy Soda model contract too.”
The timing was insanely perfect. PPL naturally blended into the original content they were preparing. Inside the dining pocha with a perfect atmosphere for blind dates, sweet sky-blue Creamy Soda was stacked layer upon layer.
‘I wonder how well this one will do.’
After the first episode of aired, the previous ASMR video saw its view count explode once again. Han Yeoreum was an actress who knew how to capture public attention with just her voice alone.
‘If it does as well as I expect…’
Team Leader Seong’s eye for talent, which had recognized Han Yeoreum since , became even sharper. Creamy Soda, which had been on the market for just over a month now, boasted quite high sales rates among new products.
‘It might be a flash in the pan, but she’s definitely drawing real popularity!’
Team Leader Seong smiled as he took in the filming set. Just then, it was time for the original content shoot.
“Hello-.”
After the premiere ended, the actors and Director Gong all entered together. Camera setup complete, lighting setup complete, microphone attachment complete.
Everything up to filming proceeded quickly. The wrap party began in a cheerful atmosphere.
* * *
“Back then, you know what. Hyeonjo and I went to Jangchung-dong and got beaten up every day, then beaten up again…”
“Cheolsik. If someone heard that, they’d think you really went to get beaten up. You should say you went to become action actors!”
“That’s not wrong though. We really got beaten up a lot.”
The drinking session proceeded lightly. The table set with alcohol and Creamy Soda was no different from any other company dinner. The actors laid out filming behind-the-scenes stories as if sharing them in private.
“Our little colt will have to do action later too. This kid is really good at running.”
Gwak Cheolsik naturally tossed the conversation to Yeoreum. Yeoreum, the youngest member of , was appropriately teased by her seniors and also joined in conversations.
“Alright! Everyone try acting out one famous scene from the movie!”
As they had one drink, then two, the atmosphere gradually became more playful.
Gwak Cheolsik raised his fist as shown in the trailer, Yoon Hyeonjo recited legal knowledge. K acted smug saying to do things by the law, and finally Yeoreum.
“Play that song for me. When we all go one, two, three together, Pretty Girl… here I go!”
Yeoreum, holding Creamy Soda in one hand, swept her hair back to the music. Her pose had its own slow-motion effect.
“Uhahahaha!”
“Is it okay to advertise this openly?”
“The model should advertise, of course.”
Yeoreum deliberately held the can close to her face and blinked prettily as if she really didn’t know. Her movements still had slow-motion effects.
‘Yeoreum…’
‘Thank you…’
The Creamy Soda representatives who happened to be there sent grateful looks. They had a feeling this would become a viral clip. It seemed like it would get good reactions.
“Huh? What’s this?”
Just as the drinking session was getting into full swing, a staff member came from far away carrying a cake with lit candles.
“Congratulations on the re-lease-.”
When everyone sang together with one heart, Director Gong, who empathizes well, got teary-eyed. He covered his face with both hands and burst into delicate tears.
“Ah, you should blow out the candles and then cry!”
“I heard the director cried yesterday too.”
Gwak Cheolsik and Yoon Hyeonjo poked fun at him, but he cried sorrowfully.
“Sniff… The results aren’t even out yet, but is it okay to, huhuuk! receive congratulations…”
However, even while crying, he diligently took photos.
“Come on, come on! Before all the candles melt, quickly look forward.”
The staff took photos of the team with the cake in the center. Click-click-click-click-click-! Not just a single click sound, but rapid continuous shooting sounds made everyone burst into laughter again.
“Quickly, quickly! At this rate the store will catch fire!”
The candles had gotten short before they knew it. The team gathered together. With the count of one, two, three, they blew out the candles with a whoosh-.
“Last drink, last drink! Come on, everyone cheers!”
Glasses clinked once more over the cake. The filming finally ended with words asking people to come watch .
* * *
Right after filming ended, the characteristic bustle lingered.
However, while only the equipment was being removed, the people sitting remained as they were. Now Director Ja and Myeong Jeha, who had been nearby, were coming to join.
When I thought again about the name Yeonhuijae that Director Ja had mentioned earlier, the alcohol hit me hard. My heart kept pounding.
‘The work I’m doing now isn’t even finished, but thinking that I might already have another next project…’
My heartbeat became uncontrollably intense. That’s when it happened.
“Everyone take one of these.”
Director Gong handed out something. I also received one in bewilderment.
“Oh… Director…”
It was the scenario for the sequel.
“Let’s go with this exact same cast. Regardless of how the box office does, the next series production has been confirmed!”
The weight of the scenario in my hands was really light. But I couldn’t hold it steadily. Was it because it was too heavy? My hands were shaking.
“Little colt! You’re crying!”
Gwak Cheolsik shouted looking at me. Right. Am I crying…? Tears were dripping onto the words that read .
“The napkins here are soft, good for wiping tears.”
Yoon Hyeonjo handed me tissues. I pressed and wiped, but tears kept flowing.
“Why are you crying, Yeoreum, why are you crying! You must have heard rumors about the next series production?”
Director Gong was flustered. Right. I know about making the next series too.
I even roughly know the content. I’ve seen it. There’s no way I wouldn’t know about a ten-million-viewer movie.
But that’s also why I had let go of my greed. Since I knew Influencer 1 doesn’t appear in , I had been half-believing since hearing Myeong Jeha’s words.
And I wasn’t expecting it deep down. Because if you expect and then fall, that hurts more. I had felt that more than anyone…
“Director, you. Didn’t tell me. About the next project. So I naturally thought. I was. Being dropped…”
I’m short of breath. If Professor Geum Bitkang saw this, a scolding would come flying. I couldn’t speak a single sentence properly.
“Aw, this villain is so pitiful I can’t stand it.”
The actor playing K, who was sitting next to me, said jokingly.
“I’m, really sorry. I know how sad you feel, I know. But the villain has to change every series…”
“This is a joke, but what do you do if you’re empathizing with this too, Director!”
At the conversation between K and Director Gong, I laughed while crying. I now have three scenarios.
that I’m currently doing, that I’ll be doing, and that I feel like I might be able to do.
I’m no longer Han Yeoreum who doesn’t have a single line of dialogue. I have my own role now.
“What? Why are you making people cry? This film set won’t work.”
The entrance was noisy. Director Ja and Myeong Jeha had received word and came to visit.
“We need to kick those people out. How dare they come to someone else’s movie wrap party and say they’ll do their own work?”
“Now, now. First, is about… well, the content is…”
“If someone’s talking, you should listen a bit…”
Director Gong complained, but Director Ja, who walked straight toward me upon entering, started saying what he wanted to say regardless of whether I was crying or not.
I wiped away the tears that kept flowing and listened to Director Ja’s words. Being moved was one thing, but I had to seize this opportunity for a major next project.
“But there’s one problem.”
“What kind of problem…”
“We need to bring in a lot of money, you see? Since it’s a period drama.”
“Yes…”
Director Ja hesitated unusually, then cut it short with a dismissive tone.
“I used to be the boss until now! But this time, it’s not like that because of money issues!”
And he reached his conclusion.
“Right now, the investor is the boss!”
So what…? Just as the incomprehensible conversation with Director Ja was heading into deeper confusion, Myeong Jeha, who was beside us, calmly summarized.
“They’re saying they want to push Gi Juye.”
Ah… so that means…
“Even if the investor and director have a power struggle and it doesn’t work out, it means you, Yeoreum, will have to fight it out with Gi Juye in an audition.”
He was telling me to have a one-on-one showdown with Gi Juye.
