Chapter 8: Baekwon
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGp901vDoq
Because of the party, the two were in a fervent spirit again and began the search for a good restaurant with the intention of sweeping all kinds of dishes in the world.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfZgOKGFob
After 20 minutes of searching, I quietly left and entered the empty room right next to it. The 3rd floor is everywhere, there are small rooms like meeting rooms, which can be used by artists and managers to meet at any time. I stood against the wall next to the half-opened door, staring blankly into the empty room.
I was just waiting for them to finish looking for a restaurant and come out to find me. The door was only half closed, so I could call them back as soon as they were out of the next room. However, instead of seeing the two people I was waiting for, I heard someone else's voice.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvP7iKfjiPq
"What is this? Why are you two here?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyCfB4NGbf
Following Myeongshin's bright voice, Hansoo's voice rang out.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjdvAabHiE
"It's my right to be here. Is there a problem?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkowlfF7uqh
I turned my head to look out the door. Myeongshin was standing with his back half turned to me, coldly spitting each word at Hansoo who was standing opposite.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGB2kyLi3q
"You haven't been fired yet? You can't even stand in front of the camera because of your claustrophobia, what are you doing hanging around here?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz524ymnPPz
The manager stepped in front of Hansoo, agitated by that statement and frowned.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mp7TPoJYY
"Yoohan, what are you saying? Hansoo..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9ZMvVIBP3
"You too. I don't understand how you are still involved with this company even though you've separated from me and don't have any artists to take care of. Why....That's unlucky."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOhC3T1uF7
Hansoo's face turned red as if offended by Myeongshin's outburst.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBCqKfQFyM
"We're the unlucky ones here! Ah, but do you think even if you weren't here, the manager wouldn't have another artist to take care of? Our manager has found someone new. He even passed the interview and signed the contract today!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlY79AdwkW
Hansoo's next words about my story made me no longer able to listen calmly.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBe99bNgLYe
"Chief Park is the one who interviewed him to see how good his acting is, and even cried! He's an acting genius, an acting genius!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n9UTV6wtp
Are you sure you're talking about me?
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFTpHrMpMC
"Don't worry about us anymore, if you want to be a great actor, go back and tell the company to support you well. Okay!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUfltyFWiE
After raising his chin and spitting out his words, Hansoo grabbed the manager, who was still embarrassed, and pulled back into the room, closing the door.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIGyV6ZLP6
Boom!
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGbS3IqsUc
I watched the closed door for a short moment and then turned to look at the person still standing there. Only half of his face can be seen from here so I don't know what his expression is, but I'm pretty sure he's extremely upset. Seeing a scene like that, I really wanted to laugh. Nothing changed. In the past, Myeongshin was the type that always looked down on others, but in reality he was very attentive and made up his own mind about problems.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDA7AoY5PV6
Even if he had changed his image and become a famous actor who can drive a cool sports car every day, inside he is still the same Myeongshin as before. Like now, he could have ignored the director and former colleagues he had ruined, but he couldn't.
Standing looking at the door for a long time, he quickly picked up the phone in his hand and went somewhere. I also left the room and quietly followed. He entered an empty elevator, stopping at the top floor. After confirming, I also went to the top floor and went straight to the rooftop without hesitation.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XidSo4GuO
On the top floor, when exiting the elevator, in addition to the door leading to the terrace, there was another door, but it could only be opened from the inside. I heard that behind this door is the operating room, so I don't think Myeongshin will be inside. Then only the terrace remains. I went up there once at night .
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6v9dkdNHX
Peeking behind the open door, no sound moving towards the source of Myeongshin voice was made. I hid behind a tree in the center and heard Myeongshin angrily shouting at someone on the phone.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlbrQZRcBP
"....Ah, I'm mad. It's really annoying, what? Ha…What do you mean? Of course, you have to strangle yourself to death. If he dared to work with Director Choi, then I'll let him know what it's like to fail."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SMhfJlPXF
I didn't worry at all knowing that I was the object of his intense insults. On the contrary, my first reaction was that it was funny to see that he cared for me so much. Obviously he doesn't know who I am yet. Thanks to you, everything won't be boring because it's too easy from now on. I was still expressing my gratitude when Myeongshin, who was talking on the phone, suddenly turned around.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl4ybE6R4j
"Who's there?!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKuSZ6987z
Shit....this is bad.....No matter how great the desire for revenge, in reality, I am just a poor and rural delivery man. If I continue to stand in front of a famous artist driving hundreds of millions of dollars in foreign cars, my ending will only be a laughing stock. So, no matter how funny it looks, I remained to stay out of sight and keep my voice as low as possible so as to not be noticed.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSwRG92CEr
Clack clack.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFpcyapVtc
I heard his footsteps walking towards me. I glanced around to see if there was another place to hide, but there was no space behind me anymore. The exit door is on the opposite side.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrlzMOQJMg
"I said who's there?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrp0667A8S2
The high-pitched voice came closer and closer.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHBUYKaET2
"Do you think I can't tell you're hiding there?!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2u8ZSZ716W
....Just like this, I'm....
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegKhYRFhQX
"Who's hiding from you?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntyuZulcnX
"Huh?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjPg9TrB1n
My body that was trembling from the situation was suddenly stiffened by another voice interjecting.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTvr9ISfwU
Was there someone else here? I couldn't help but raise my head slightly to look in the direction of the voice. Myeongshin was standing not far from the tree where I was hiding. And a man was coming from the opposite side.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6ZPREBuxp
I couldn't see the man's face because his tall frame obscured Myeongshin, but I could clearly see Myeongshin's expression when I caught sight of him. At least more surprised than me. So much so that it was clear that he had inhaled back at that moment. However, what made me more suspicious than surprised was the words that came out of Myeongshin's mouth towards him.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzkpo8erkR
"Huh! Let me apologize."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gklHCpFTm
Realizing the other party, Myeongshin apologize immediately. He slowly walked to the opposite side with a confused face as if he had just made a big mistake.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zZRAi8ZVQ
"I heard a noise so I thought someone was eavesdropping on my call. I didn't know it was Mr. Yoon."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Iq9nKzYaB
"Where do you think this is?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9kkcqFbkE
A soft voice interrupted Myeongshin.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7geyCt8GR
The familiar slow melody flows into my ears. I forgot about hiding and poked my head out again.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcfDi6ud8k
"Is it your personal space?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8K21HXHw6
"No…."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhswqvN8Ks
"And that call wasn't interesting enough to be eavesdropped on."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLTBsGQXIx
That means he heard it all too. He has a thick face to add.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkg3dzp21J
"Just some gossip about stepping on someone new."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCrd8pjcNx
A reluctant smile appeared on Myeongshin's face.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbqYwLZ2RS
"You really haven't heard it all right?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1kBHSEWVb
"Cigarettes."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLXYwEasWt
"Yes? Ah, you said you wanted to smoke a cigarette alone."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBFR4D8AJR
Myeongshin couldn't help but step back, he pursed his lips.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEr2BIZgGSk
"Next time please let me smoke with you."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdao3dOx7g
When Myeongshin talked with sparkling eyes, the other side also rolled their eyes and smiled back.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jfhpcWpf6
"I don't like it."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24QsdTzQvg
Myeongshin was unable to laugh….The other man as he pointed at the cigarette end in his hand towards the exit. Myeongshin looked at him with a regretful expression, only to leave his greetings and disappear at the door. Not long after, Myeongshin went down the stairs and left completely, but I still couldn't get up from the floor.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSJMvZ7waC
Myeongshin is gone, but there's one more person here that I don't want to see. No matter how harsh the people in this country are, I don't want to meet him again.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfquC8ZMkfG
However, the wish could not come true.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T31JFL6jz
"Baekwon….haven't you come out already?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoflReZxJRN
Damned it....I have no choice but to curse in my heart. I slowly got up and walked out of the bushes and saw him with a cigarette in his mouth. Under the bright light, the smile hanging at the corner of his lips looked creepy no matter what. I knew he was the kind of guy who would say something hurtful with that relaxed look on his face. In addition, there is also Myeongshin's attitude towards him.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmC971b8zo
At least he must be much more powerful than an artist....Perhaps because I met him for the second time, I felt more familiar.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzRvmFoDIz
"Is it Song Yoohan? The object of your revenge?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGic62PRiQQ
Unfortunately, it's not just the face that I feel familiar from the second meeting....have I met him somewhere before?......
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6Hiy3RMcR
"I'm asking if it's Song Yoohan, Baekwon."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSbXIV6pGH
This baekwon nickname….annoys me more than he knows Myeongshin is the object of my revenge.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMpTSxQOPA
I was about to swear, but found it too trivial and not enough to release all the frustration in my body. A stronger curse.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEEpH5fEMl
Ah, yes.....Hansoo's American curse words.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0GM9vHkIO
"You don't have to know….Psychopath."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIrnmq748k
Psycho is a curse word....so ‘Path’ must be for emphasis. I assumed it was on the same level as the son of a bitch, so I spat it out in a low voice. The opponent immediately reacted. Even if it was only for an instant, his eyes narrowed slightly.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxVu8DdRgG
What?.....He's back to normal, but I'm sure he was taken aback by my swearing....His next words upset me even more.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yuDTW9Sva
"Well….I do hear that from time to time."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjZ1f8yCX7
What the....does that mean it's not his first time being addressed as such?....Turns out he's a person that I shouldn't deal with more than I thought. I was still wincing because I thought I couldn't keep up with his thoughts, he repeated the question again.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9M0P6gAqzk
"So it is Song Yoohan and that's why You chased him all the way here."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBBkrLrSJz
"How do you know?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHRxlYmwiV
"Because I chased you."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNo0ViWqly
He has no shame….
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcBTNQZ9Fm
With a cigarette in his mouth his head turned to one side.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz49iZ5T0WW
"I heard that you passed the interview? The rumor that you were holding a knife in front of department head Park that scared him to tears has spread."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjjDMKLKlH
The corners of his eyes were curved up, and his eyes were looking towards my back pocket as if I can see the knife.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRbKiEw1d5
"I heard you threatened him with actions like thugs, reading lines no less than like a 5 year old kid. You could have easily turned the situation around, but if it weren't for Chief Park, being too cowardly. Then you wouldn't have stood a chance in passing the interview."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cH53fFFD6
That soft voice cut me like a knife. He had a smile on his lips, but his eyes were cold as ice. I looked at him and slowly opened my mouth.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mvWf3mQQS
"That's right. There's no chance for me."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjYmP5N9y3
It seemed for a moment his smile had disappeared. However, as if it had formed a habit, the corners of his lips were raised again.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lp9D9ka8T
"No special looks, nor natural talent for an actor who wants revenge?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbwwOLMOG2
"None of your business."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPq2572Q6b4
I spat out brusquely, but the other party pretended not to hear me and put a smile in their eyes. At that time, he seemed very happy, laughter mixed in his voice.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjmjhjClJN
"With that strength, if you want to climb up to Song Yoohan's current position, you will have to work in this world for at least decades, unless there is a sponsor to support you. Ah, you said that you are aiming at Director Yoon."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0p6v0YByw
At the same time, he scanned my body from top to bottom.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea05OtPyZL
"Relying only on yourself?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhZ4TUHt0Q
Strangely, I didn't feel angry at all. Maybe it's because of that dry intonation. It's just like talking about an obvious fact.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURtQNsUN0c
"I know. I'm in control of myself."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs78AKTWyjc
I replied calmly, he replied immediately.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1c0fFKkRg
"Yes, that's it."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62jV1NTxH3
He took a swig of the flaming cigarette into his mouth and blew out a puff of white smoke.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeuHKB4ZJL
"Seems like you know that. At your level anything is impossible. I find you to be the type of person who is quite practical, not easily excitable. Isn't it interesting for an actor to not with the slightest prospect like you wanting revenge?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYXua5XWs1
No, it's not interesting at all. I have a feeling I can't communicate with him, not least because he only says hurtful words. I instinctively seemed to have recognised the horror coming from him, such as the difference between that smiling face and the cold words. As he said, he will not hesitate to reveal all that I have hidden deep inside.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGU9Utv7EC
"You, actually...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2ugw5VEFr
I screwed up…..Only such thought remained in my mind ever since returning from the rooftop. How could I meet such a bad guy? I made the mistake of asking for a cigarette the first time I met him. Damn it.....There are people who can always see through the other as if looking at a ghost. Those are the ones that'll make me suffer forever if I make an enemy of them…
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dJuuxMS9L
"If you have decided to stay at this company, you will still have to meet me a lot. And like I said, I find you quite interesting. So, do you think I should interfere a bit with what you're trying to do ? Well, what will you give me?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu82xF38fw9
I was threatened by a guy I don't even know his name. He was kind enough to give me his phone number, and gave me a week. I really wanted to ignore what he said but his attitude. Myeongshin's attitude towards him makes me hesitate. Just how powerful is he after all ?
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ11mjgnTv
"....Taemin?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBZWRw0o7i
I turned my head to look at the hand shaking my shoulder, the manager and Hansoo were staring at me.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7mH5mBNae
"How are you? What happened??! Suddenly for you to come back with this serious face?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAp3H5SqA9e
"Manager"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKcEOq9VEC
"Hmm?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrX7NTkAUN
"An artist in this company, about 30 years old, always has a smile on his face….That's all. What are you going to ask?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxgQJBD9dc
There's no point in knowing his name. It's a mistake anyway.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FpN78C0Os
"Well, I was going to ask him if he had time to take a profile picture next week. I should have taken a picture right away, but I pushed it back a week to let the wound on your face heal first. That would be the first photo of your career. Chief Park also contacted me so I could see the photo, and then decide on the future direction for you. So you have to be very attentive....Well, I have to tell you first, the person taking the photo is really important. Just taking good pictures, anyone who knows how to use a camera can do it, but not everyone can capture the expensive points and color schemes. Fortunately, the studio affiliated with the company is a well-known place to work, so there is nothing to worry about ahhah"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsKKcWAgPa
.....I have nothing to worry about anyway.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sMzsUekIZ
"In addition, it is necessary to supplement your resume, past activities such as your education level, for example."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrejGpgHMH
The more he talked the more quietly, the manager glancing at the knife in my back pocket with concern.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2mFAeOz59
"Hmm, I was just asking just in case. Taemin, did you do something bad in the past...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN2XEBXZ8a
"Don't worry. I'm not an ex-convict"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8jGgMjPHE
"R-right?...I knew it….Hahaha."
Manager said in unsettling laugh.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVtwT89bHT
"I only had to go to the police station a few times."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3cysC97hd
Their expressions suddenly stiffened....Why are they so surprised? Looking back and forth between the two of them for a while, I asked softly.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDs8WgTOT6
"Haven't the two of you ever been taken to the police station in your life?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqQnHWWA43
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlENxh48aX
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyhbNG99B9
I couldn't understand the silence between the two, so I could only watch, Hansoo opened his mouth for the manager.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY71Q84pAnS
"Well then, I'm just asking. High school....Did you graduate?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8ovpuCrqF
"No. I was expelled when I first entered the school."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQq3adGzH7w
The manager's eyebrows twitched wildly.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwZ2BnmyrP
"So you worked hard to earn money to buy medicine for your sick mother after being expelled from school...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUBqHSOY7g
"I rode my motorbike and robbed the boys."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdliiK2RGKZ
Somehow the expressions on the two's faces looked so pale…..Are they hungry? I thought about it and told them my only weakness.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3TvRJ8YYP
"So, I'm a bit ignorant. Especially in English."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X3Is1se7P
The faces of the two of them were so white that it made me a little nervous, the manager opened his mouth to speak.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTtmm1McYA
"....Well...from now on we're gonna leave everything about you to god and hope for the best....."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1joV007qA
Fortunately, They found a new delivery man so....I only needed to work an extra week. Handing over the car keys on the last day, I quietly left work without saying goodbye. From tomorrow, I will no longer work here , but somewhere else, but I have not really adjusted yet. However, I know. I will do my best to get revenge, just like I worked hard for 5 years to repay the debt. Maybe it's just an extension of time for me to pay off the debt. And maybe because of that, I calmly accepted it like that. Even if suddenly there was a problem on the first day of taking my profile picture.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2ZEhoXmDH
In my mind, it's very simple, just press the shutter button and you're done. So when I was taken to the studio with high ceilings like a warehouse, I felt awkward. Devices I don't know the names of are everywhere, and in the middle of them only a white background is hung. I don't know what's in front of me, but I know what's missing here. Humans, there's no one here to operate them.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlY4K2DVyaT
"Sorry?! The shoot will have to be cancelled?!!.....What do you mean by that?!!... I sent a confirmation call just yesterday! And didn't we agree on this already?!! I even checked in with you twice that we will arrive at 1pm today?!!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6PhNNVtej
The manager rarely gets angry. Only a female employee was present. However, the girl just repeated in panic over and over that she was just a part-time employee.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48kJzkKLq9
[I apologize sir....I wasn't informed of the reason as well.....Everyone packed their equipment and left early in the morning for an outdoor photo shoot today......They said they'll be somewhere in the countryside....and said they didn't know when they would come back…]
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKkiocZge8
"All the photographers and makeup team? Including Mr. Park??"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWtgnsCRXn
[Yes , including Mr.Park and the makeup team...received a text message this morning telling them to keep the office for a few days.]
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWoP3RMBbm
"!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hjrlLIJWn
The part-time employee is trying to call their superior and keeps explaining to the manager like they're about to cry. But I can only hear the music of the phone playing and no one on the other end picks up the phone. The manager stands on the other side, I also tried to call, but my fingertips suddenly stopped at the staff's words.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjot9evM00F
[I don't know either, I heard that Mr. Song Yoohan needs to take an outdoor pictorial urgently....]
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7L09sIIyST
The employee who was connected to the other end hurriedly explained the current situation, but immediately her expression turned awkward when she heard it. Their conversation went on for a few minutes before the employee hung up on the phone ending the conversation...
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PXoD24Ze4
Tut. Tut. Tut....
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6g7RRgVuKm
"I'm sorry....It seems Myeongshin is interfering with your work because of me..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzhA29ebq5
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRscUznhzj
I was about to say that I wasn't surprised that I heard Myeongshin talk about this on the phone on the rooftop, but I just kept quiet.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuii82OkXeP
Why should he apologize? It's just a photo shoot, right?
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjJknrZPSq
"Can we take pictures elsewhere?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡat3MP7YoOG
Immediately, the manager's face was a little embarrassed when asked.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsaJIdvvOi
"Uh….Well this is the place where the company signed a contract with….and If we want to shoot elsewhere, we have to report it to the top for permission.....or, we can pay for it ourselves....but well I'm kind of low on the funds right now...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryEFJ4udoD
"......"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAyYCast3u
"Ah....I-It's okay!!! Even though you have signed a 1-month contract and have to send photos as soon as possible....Don't worry! There are plenty of people in the company who can take pictures too.......If it becomes urgent, then anyone can do it."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnOusrzMbp
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNNK2L3Cq4
Whoever?....Didn't you explain to me how important the photographer is? On the contrary, the person who needs to be calm here is the manager, but I don't have a chance to interfere.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDHFG7Dxo0
"Taemin, go back first today, let see them again the day after tomorrow"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IjGIl489B
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlf3M6Cn1Hc
"Will the day after tomorrow be ok?"

When the manager asked the employee who had hung up the phone at this time, she seemed to want to cry while holding the schedule .
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40DYMhwHAw
[This…..He also told me not to accept reservations because the schedule is already full until the end of the month.]
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6hLFyL09A
"Huh? Ha, what about us...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBG6R3N3zP
The manager unconsciously raised his voice but then lowered his voice, he knew that this girl over the phone was not at fault.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2P6RwpKJt6
"Please choose a date in advance. We can arrive early in the morning....."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2tvjtqZ0Y
The voice became smaller as if it was stuck in my throat so I couldn't hear it, with a pleading tone to the benevolent girl. He repeatedly told the girl to contact them as soon as they had time before they would leave the studio.
Looks like he's starting to blame himself again, I wanted to comfort him but couldn't.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3p4VbbOmp
"That's surprising, isn't it? Hahahaha….this job is always in trouble, things like this happen every day."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGTbeqVTPC
The manager's face muscles trembled slightly as he tried to smile. I also just nodded and got into his old car, because I thought that no matter what I said now he wouldn't hear. Then he gave me some papers to change the atmosphere a bit.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRtBlnGsdP
"I have already prepared your upcoming schedule."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPSZYQmdMz
On the piece of paper he gave, all day was practice.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z5xDtGO0p
Practice vocals, pronunciation, movements, dance…..In the dense schedule from morning to night, each day one or two time boxes are highlighted in red. The manager himself took it and explained it.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs0TMDzMhw
"These are company-supported classes. Most of the participants are pre-trained, so it might be hard for you to keep up. But don't worry, people. If you can do it, you can do it too."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3dSXQpb0z
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxqb9Zzdww
I'm not worried at all, but like before, I didn't get a chance to say it. Because I was having time, the manager called me to listen to a lecture one class ago. However, the content of the call this time fell into the same situation as the call not long ago.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyeUHrtX94
"…..What? What does it mean to not accept the actors I take on? The company has already supported it….The actors are still untested?! I don't know anything so I have to learn ! Of course! It's contract support...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcIZedEkVH
The manager who was still raising his voice suddenly fell silent. When I suspected he might have stopped breathing, he exhaled and whispered.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbui6aKp37w
".....Is it Song Yoohan? That brat…..Hello? Hello!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ609pkrVfqW
The manager blankly looked at the phone when the other party disconnected. I don't know the details of what happened, but it looks like my schedule for today is empty. I looked down at the paper in my hand. The schedule of the whole week is detailed in just one page.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Be9KWWisn
Drawing lines and filling in the boxes looks like a timetable that I used to use when I was in school. There are four such panels. I will spend a month there. How will I spend a month as an actor signing a 1-month contract? I'm sure he put a lot of thought into it.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxU0MSIN5M
"Taemin-ah, I'm really sorry. That's….That's..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8D4P1HcUD
He said something else, but at that moment I couldn't hear anything more.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQcgCYKFUS
I have no power at all.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzf9b3j6cZ
I was self-aware from the beginning and still spent time thinking about it, but in reality....I had no idea the opportunity had already occurred to me. It's just, I still silently cross out the opponent because he seems like a troublesome person and will probably drive me crazy for a long time.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfHJ9psAL2
That psychopath.......he was right.....
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZ5b1k0ki0
What can be done by relying on myself alone? Without any further consideration, I must seize this opportunity.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAwlX2PfCI
No matter how crazy an opportunity it may be.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt34YinAcV9
"Let's go back to the company first..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmUj905zfC
Rustling.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnolaSr4ef5
I grabbed the manager's arm and interrupted him. Then he turned around and asked me what was wrong.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7r8Qv85CO
"He's going to be disappointed."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhTopAjCmx
What's the point of disappointment? Who? I only replied with one name.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL9thKIgHq
"Song Myeongshin."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOjgldQEdo
"What are you talking about?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFcA7tF0Ad
Followed by a series of silly words, then I asked another question.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR4PnrzNWG
"What do you think of me?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoiyq5p3Kk
"Huh? What?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFwYQFHfSf
"Do you find me interesting?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZllM4u0fZV
"Well...instead of saying are you interesting, sometimes I just want to punch you."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh39JBy9NR1
I smiled and laughed, he answered unexpectedly seriously, and picked up the phone. I found the phone number that I had conveniently saved and pressed.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LiDWoPAWy
[Madman]
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvhRB5U56l
Ring.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi9y9g9AiC
After a moment, a familiar soft sound came through the phone.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEiN9JY6K6
[What's up]
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6r73NaXaz5
"I'll give it to you."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0EAmSmssK
[......]
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLroaJSm4f
I felt the puzzled look of the manager beside me, calmly adding when there was still no response on the other line.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknyGxrdB0l
"So give me the deposit first."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I4bn8a9Zc
After a while, I heard a low chuckle along with a question .
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTfsKYupKm
[What do I gain by having you?]
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hLzbmhBJu
“Profit? Well then….I'll let you punch me once in a while....Oh, and there's no refund....So let me take the deposit first.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIA7Pbaznm
Click. Vroom.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwNRcRuvA0
I confirmed the sound of the car closing tightly, sat up and leaned back against the car seat. Perhaps because I went out to listen to the latter part of the call, the manager only heard the first part, his expression now mixed with concern and curiosity.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA9ZRMiBTH
"Who was that?....After all, who did you say to give what?....What else is there to deposit?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uPHCKjpD7
I know it would be bad to be rude to the other person, but I had to ask another question to avoid answering him.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdNIKGXQ1G
"Who do you think is the best?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhdGNd52BX
"What is the best?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8v4QMwTVp
"To take pictures."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp76RZcXYe
In the blink of an eye, he just looked at me without answering, so I had to tell him a little bit about what he was curious about.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBoZDhw5e2
"Someone agreed to help."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZqRsO3fBA
"Who?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMCv705Lkm
When I heard that, I remembered that I didn't even know his name.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6eWYtqAb3
"I don't know.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRnYnXZiQf
The manager’s expression cracked a little when he heard my sincere answer.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iMDY4AGnc
"You...don't know?....Are you kidding?..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGG3UeiGCy
" I really don't know....But I do know one thing."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0JbS63GUe
"What?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtznY01T8s
I opened my mouth to speak as soon as he asked back.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XqExfyOwb
"He is more powerful than Myeongshin "
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0M11f40Y0Z
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh0lRfluZ6
"So who is the best photographer?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lvf5j6K6Y
"If we are talking about photos then, Photographer Mr. Lee is the best....but.....he won't take your photos for you. He's famous for not working with those who don't suit his liking....Wait , who is more powerful than Myeongshin? What does he do? How do you know he is more powerful than Myeongshin?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzv0XffF0Z
"I saw Myeongshin crouch in front of him."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64uiq0g3Us
I think that should be enough to explain everything. Considering the actions of Myeongshin that I witnessed, it looks like he bowed to someone more powerful than that. I realized, because I had seen it many times before.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgv5FMK5hW
Everywhere there are people who always rely on their instincts to find the stronger one and then have to go elsewhere. These guys may be annoying and despicable, but in reality it's because they're not as strong that they have to be so vigilant. The problem is that among them there will always be those with dark intentions who want to rise to the top. I have also witnessed with my own eyes a gang that has collapsed just because of the tricks of a certain greedy guy. This type of person is even more dangerous and tougher than the strong. Everyone thinks so. But obviously there are still some similar types of people.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrMQ26Sc8b
Myeongshin is trying to be the best , but still not the best. So it was obvious what his actions meant. Because he was facing someone more powerful, he bowed his head like that. I thought this was a simple fact that didn't need much explanation, but the manager frowned and asked again.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuU4BazxukE
"Just because of that...you asked some stranger that you don't even know?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJPG7w2c1U
"Yes."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MDbFFEHTp
He didn't know what to say and just looked at me silently, then mumbled in a low voice.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BMqWxS5uA
"Seems like you're just living off of your instincts."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxdrxxg3ys
Is it that obvious? After all, everyone lives by instinct. I wanted to talk to the manager but stopped.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQoCJGsrqh
"But what if that person is a dangerous person? Besides, if he asks you to do weird things, what should you do?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZaVSR7Qjq
The manager did not understand why he hesitated a bit, then calmly expressed his point of view.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRY0ALg2dg
"Although I don't like you looking for sponsors , since you want revenge I can let you go, but you don't even know who they are yet."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmGEWih3mH
"Manager….then would it be better if I let the month pass by with our hands tied just like this because of Myeongshin?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRloNdivBGZ
"...That's..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiSvQ27mi9
"Do you think I look like someone who is easily fooled?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjf6tx6TEBD
As soon as I finished speaking, I stared at him, and he almost stopped breathed and did not move, after a while he sighed in response.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5biLrDG1s
"No."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5z3UgiLzAo
"Then just hand it over to me and let's go."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoEYMcgOc3
"Okay...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5gBFoVqFD
Manager answered and started the car. Suddenly he turned to look at me.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxOcvLWl0B
"But where are we going now?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWttws6vbO
The scene similar to when you first arrived at the studio opened up before your eyes. Unidentified equipment spread like a warehouse, without a single window, all the lights were directed towards the single white background hanging in the center. The photographer's studio, according to the manager, is the best today, as quiet as the previous location.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRjZ0NIRIN
"The photographer does not have any photo shoot today...We have not received any appointment from Dream."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYo9Ay2aXd
Inside a single young man working at the computer desk was rummaging through a sealed notebook schedule and awkward reply.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdXVIz4dVl
Hearing that, the manager immediately turned to look at me. His eyes were filled with the same confidence that he confirmed to me before entering the studio.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJssluxhJd
"That person said he would help you, right?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWQLR5X2Yi
I nodded dejectedly in response....
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi86wDdjmM1
"We do not have an appointment , but we need to take pictures. Do you know where Mr. Lee is? If he comes to see us, he will know immediately."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1hLHAKWg2
"He’s busy upstairs....So I was told not to disturb him today...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhpMj61gcX
"Well, then just call him down, okay? We have a good reason....Anyway, don't worry, just try calling."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUC2bjvjN5
For a long time, the young man who had to keep calling under the urging of the manager, finally turned his back and started to whisper something. The manager looked at me with satisfied eyes and explained to me.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJYxaax7j2
"As you can see, to be able to set up a studio like this at a young age, Mr. Lee 's ability must be said to be number one.....But he is also very stubborn, he never shoots….I posed for models he didn't like at all, so I was a bit worried, but the person you called on the phone said he would help already, so we'll probably get some pictures taken."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnAMZkfSKO
There, I had to constantly hear raves about Mr. Lee and then turned to look at the boy who ended the call. He tensed up, turned off the phone, and opened his mouth to us thoughtfully.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3G1VxIjA89
"He said he would come down soon. But....he is very angry."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU3jUPw3Nq
"Huh? Angry?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJhMfWt7As
Stunned, the manager checked my expressionless face again, and gave me a wry smile
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZhdk8M6Lr
"Looks like Mr. Lee still hasn't received the contact....Don't worry....I'll definitely call you soon."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTk8DVKL4v0
"Call who?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIdbekOvgQ
"Ah , it was…"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsGFvUTts6
The manager glanced at me again and whispered to me in a low voice so that the young man could not hear.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oSiND6ZNo
"Hmm, it's not that I doubt you, but are you sure ? "
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSr0CqAoPoM
"For now please believe me. So Mr. Lee will definitely take the picture."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5D6znNlVQt
Seeing me, he answered tersely. Thus, the manager immediately turned his head to look.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfnIxtLfC3
"Hahaha….Obviously he already contacted Mr. Lee."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPipp1ZYfrg
"Who is that?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftuW19F4AZ
"......!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZfKQn7EFw
"A very powerful person?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87WbfSUBhj
"Yes?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T0KcJ3I8W
The young man seemed to want to cry, when he opened his mouth to say something, there were a series of footsteps going down the stairs.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3zAkWHXu3
I don't know if it was because I was in the basement, but the bell and the door opened.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1LnFwJ4UZ
Boom!
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTlnP0BRW0
Then came a voice like thunder.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QrnGZJD5I
"Ah, Damn! Who's bothering me?!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr1GCPurMb
Just like the manager said, entering with the door open was a young man in his thirties, wearing only a pair of underwear. The most interesting thing in this world can be said to be standing aside and watching people tear each other apart, but if you keep repeating it over and over, it will eventually become boring.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyWIoTpHl6
"I told you not to bother me? Do you want to die?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7nfPMRzjE
"Boss,...I don't want to bother you...but this guy is from Dream.....And said that someone had contacted you about this...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ19Ge6URO1
"I've never been contacted?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT77OmlVFpw
"Ah....It seems like they haven't gotten in touch yet, so...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmCWKxcaLF
"No matter what Director Choi promises! I haven't received any contact. And I told you not to bother me no matter what ! "
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAILr2WpgO
“Boss! But because they keep saying that they will contact us....I didn't know how to handle it..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMyHiDwzHl
"Manager, there is no contact at all!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlQRLj7Hd2
"What about Mr. Lee, even though you know me, you still doubt me? Huh? You don't trust me that much? You said that's not the problem, I didn't get any calls, and you! "
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw4LfTzZvQ
"Ahhh! Boss, please trust me. Because the manager said he would contact...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI0JQwloCU
It was like a loop.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Tuh0GncP7
Seeing three people standing together in a triangle and saying it over and over again makes me feel extremely confused. Is that their hobby? I doubted, slowly walking towards the white background illuminated by the lights. I stood right in the middle of it and slowly turned around to look at the devices around. These are things that I have to get used to from now on.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5zwBZWVz9
Strangely, there was no fear or trembling at all. Maybe it's mostly because of my fearlessness, but I still can't understand. Why should I be afraid to stand in front of the camera? I stood looking at this pile of equipment that I assumed was to support the front-facing camera, then suddenly realized that at some point my surroundings had become quiet.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0I1e0z2TW
When I rolled my eyes, the three of them were all looking at me with different expressions. Curiosity, grimacing and worried. Among them, the one with an annoyed face stepped forward.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFAzlLi5Rw
"Hey, you can't just go in there."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HszomULV1
I cut off the young man who was waving at me to go out and turned to look at the person standing next to him. The person looked at me with curious eyes.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthh4gppoUX
"I heard you only take pictures for people you want right?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xGnjxGsrX
At my question, Mr. Lee only wore pants with one eyebrow raised.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9blbzCLjS
"Yes."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM8DcMBp4k
"Then it doesn't matter.No matter who calls you. Since only you would be able to decide whether you'll take it or not after you see me in person. "
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFfgzb0nan
He should have looked at me first and then made up his mind. Realizing the meaning behind my words, he stood silently looking at me for a while. Then he tilted his head to one side and said.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQztCk62rsF
"Take off your shirt."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNlCMfuGuI
It was an unexpected request, but I didn't care much to follow it. Two crossed hands grabbed the collar of the t-shirt and pulled it up. Stretching my head and arms, I threw my T-shirt on the floor. And face him with a topless torso.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yN7tPcWXD
I could feel the chill pass through my exposed skin, but I didn't see any problem. And no shame at all. Isn't there someone cooler in front of me? While I wondered if this Mr. Lee was feeling more embarrassed, he watched my body closely until I started to get bored. As I just silently received his gaze, I heard a question.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQ3vyPmQlL
"Do you do any manual labor? These muscles don't look like body-builder."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspCYR5XZyb
The manager next to him was quick to explain his conjecture.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0Xd459mYR
"Haha...not quite manual labor, Taemin only worked as a courier you see..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GT49WYZoY
"If you are talking about field work, I did those too...."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgDTysRsoZ
"What?! But , didn't you say that you worked in delivery during the day and at a logistics centre at night?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcv4JqbGj0
"Yes...On weekdays. "
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdPLW8L8Bj
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2riegOJpdH
"I only do manual labor on weekends."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONXWqa5p4R
"Then when do you rest?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VjBhZpmQ9
"I've never taken time off."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxevvpBYJSJ
"!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPmY0gMYHF
"!"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqqN8s7D2d
I don't know why either, Mr. Lee took his eyes off the manager's stiff face. I turned to look at Mr. Lee, for a moment I thought his eyes were smiling, but he immediately returned to normal and said.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPU5n8C8lt
"Ah Well…You're just so average."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNMHC2TvdL
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwG89Uh7Vn
"And it's not like you're exceptionally handsome either….You're aware that a face like yours is overflowing in this world, right?....Even if you heard a few times in your life that you have pretty good features, that means nothing here."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFqX9NHDAl
"......."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZF4j43lP0
"Rather if we look at things only with your looks, then there's not even a place for you to squeeze in...I have a feeling that after a year or two, your face will be known a little bit more , but that's it....with that little bit of fame....it won't work in the end, after since there won't be many people who will recognise you..."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡys8pCXPOOk
The last sentence that predicted my future was filled with ridicule. I could hear the manager whispering angrily to Mr. Lee, but was immediately buried by my question.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcIbqFuyqG
"So you don't want to take my pictures?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rJK0OeCHy
When I asked dryly, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2koJWpp5L
"Nah, I'll take them for you. "
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4W6P45GVp
"Then let's do it…"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3RbJi1pS4
At my conclusion he raised the corners of his lips higher and said to the manager.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFAsrnIFAL
"Where did you find him? The more you look at him the more interesting he becomes."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGND1Pxrsu
The manager's face, which was still a little tense, was now completely relieved by his words and smiled.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjMgsKognf
"Right? If you keep looking at him, don't you want to take his pictures?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lJWOF8vuI
"Of course I will take his pictures, but under the condition of doing me a favor…"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovP8dYiJQV
"If I may ask....What favor is it that you ask of....?"
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA0JGtTmEU
When the wary manager asked back, he smiled and pointed at night as if there had never been a sad expression on his face.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZi6lQKNBZm
"I am working on a personal project and I want to take his photos for the project."
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9epMrDCgs
Hearing that, the manager was no longer worried and nodded in relief.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTn6JI77Plb
