Possessed 10 Million Actors

Chapter 122:

"Team Leader Jang Sunho, would you like to take the call?"

Kwon Seokhoon asked, eyes widening. Jang Sunho nodded when questioned.

"Yes. Kwon Seokhoon, you'll soon be part of the family. Even though I might not be your assigned manager, I want to support you as a fellow family' member."

Listening to Jang Sunho speak seriously, Kwon Seokhoon stared at him quietly. Then, he suddenly laughed and spoke with a voice full of gratitude.

"Just words are enough. But, really, Team Leader Jang Sunho doesn't need to bother dealing with this. And, in fact, I'm enjoying this right now."

"Enjoying?" Jang Sunho questioned.

"Yes. The one who treated me like a servant for years is now fidgeting to give me a call. It's somewhat satisfying."

""

"And although not entirely, I've fought back to some extent. Thanks to that, my hands got a bit injured."

Kwon Seokhoon shook his right hand, wrapped in bandages. The end of the bandage had neat handwriting: Get well soon! Kang Jinseok.'

Jang Sunho looked at the writing for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand. If you need any help, please let me know."

"Yes, thank you."

Even after that, Kwon Seokhoon's phone kept ringing continuously, but Jang Sunho and Kwon Seokhoon paid no attention.

And then, a little later,

"Ah~! Cut! That was great!"

With Yeo Jaeyoon's cheerful cut sign, the shooting ended. Citizens who had been watching the shooting once again threw their comments.

"Wow So this is why people watch romantic movies."

"Ugh. The love cells are coming back to life. Leave my body, Kang Jinseok."

"Should I contact my ex-boyfriend"

While some citizens admired the acting, others were more interested in the actors.

"Oppa, why are you staring blankly? Completely captivated, huh?"

"Sorry."

"And you didn't answer earlier. Am I pretty, or is that actress pretty?"

"Well, um Hey, but seriously, she acts really well. Let's definitely watch this when it's released, okay?"

"Why are you changing the subject?"

Jang Sunho, listening to the on-site reactions, nodded with satisfaction.

A bit regrettable was that the citizens' reactions were not as hot as during the filming at Sungsu Station.

But, it seemed that it was not because Jinseok's acting was lacking at that time, but rather because the citizens' expectations were much higher now.

Nevertheless, actress Yeo Hyemin seems to have improved.'

Although she was a great actress with acting skills as outstanding as her appearance, her skills seemed to have grown with each filming, enough for Kwon Seokhoon to openly praise her.

No, more precisely, it's not that her skills have improved it's more like her feelings have changed a bit.'

The Yeo Hyemin Jang Sunho saw during the first filming was an actress who acted according to the script, suppressing her emotions as much as possible and following the instructions of the script.

But at some point, it seemed like Yeo Hyemin was trying to express the emotions of the actual person rather than the script. It felt like she had become immersed in the role.

Whether it started changing while acting with Jinseok or for some other reason, Jang Sunho didn't know.

Still, it was a good change, so Jang Sunho didn't pay much attention.

"Moving to the next filming location!"

With the staff's announcement, the shooting set began to move.

***

The shooting ended earlier than scheduled, and now it's just past 7 PM.

In the van on the way home, Jinseok muttered to himself, "If the senior had come, he should have let me know. I didn't even know he came."

"Haha, sorry. I thought if I said I came, you might feel burdened, so I didn't mention it."

"I thought you might think that But still, next time, if you happen to come to the filming site, please let me know."

"I will."

Kwon Seokhoon nodded with a slight smile.

"But why did you come today? It's not just to visit the set, right?"

"Oh, actually, I had an interview today. With Team Leader Jang Sunho."

"You and the manager had an interview together?"

This was the first time he heard about it. While I don't know every detail of Jang Sunho's daily activities, I usually know about important schedules.

But more importantly, an interview with Jang Sunho and Kwon Seokhoon together

"Are you, by any chance, coming to our company? Leaving KL Entertainment?"

Asking with a bright voice, Kwon Seokhoon thought for a moment before playfully saying, "Well, who knows? Maybe if Actor Kang Jinseok approves me?"

"Me approving the senior? What does that mean?"

"Haha! Just kidding."

I looked at Jang Sunho with a puzzled expression. He must have felt my gaze, but Jang Sunho was only looking straight ahead. His expression, visible through the rearview mirror, showed a faint smile like Kwon Seokhoon's.

"Manager, do I have to approve Kwon Seokhoon senior? What does that mean?"

As I was speaking,

"Actor, we've arrived."

We had already arrived home.

Inside the OS Entertainment company cafe.

This place, usually a resting spot for employees, was always busy, but today, only three people were present due to the restricted access to an important interview.

One of them, Reporter Go Seoyeong, spoke.

"First of all, thank you, Actor Kwon Seokhoon, for taking the time for this interview."

"Well, I have plenty of time. You must be busy, so thank you for coming all the way here."

Kwon Seokhoon spoke in a cheerful voice. The voice caught Go Seoyeong's eye.

He seems unusually bright today. And'

As Go Seoyeong stared at Kwon Seokhoon's hand wrapped in bandages, she continued her thoughts.

It seems that the rumor about the Room 3 manager getting beaten up is true. Not that I would often have the chance to injure my hand like that.'

Staring intently at the bandaged hand, Go Seoyeong caught Kwon Seokhoon's eye. He read her gaze and shook his hand up and down.

"It's nothing. I just got injured during exercise. The hospital says it'll heal quickly."

"Exercise?"

"Yes. I've been boxing for a while. I got hurt during sparring. But even though it hurts, winning feels good. Haha!"

"Who was your opponent?"

"He exists. Someone I've been eyeing for quite a while."

Although he didn't explicitly mention it, Kwon Seokhoon was subtly implying that he had punched the Room 3 manager.

In the past, Go Seoyeong might have written a Kadoran' article with just this much information. However, the current Go Seoyeong had no intention of doing that.

It was more interesting, and exciting, and could garner more attention to write a fun, stimulating, and certain article. And that's what people wanted, after all.

But now, there's no need for that.'

Since joining OS Entertainment, Go Seoyeong could obtain exclusive news faster than any other reporter.

There was no need to add MSG or attract attention anymore.

"Yes. Please get well soon. Now, shall we start the interview?"

Having finished her thoughts, Go Seoyeong spoke in a relaxed voice, "That's right, Mr. Kwon."

As soon as she heard Kwon Seokhoon's response, Go Seoyeong turned on the camera she had brought. After confirming that the camera was functioning properly, Go Seoyeong began the interview.

"It was two days ago, right? When you announced that you would part ways with KL Entertainment after over seven years."

"Yes, that's correct."

"To be honest, I was quite surprised to hear that announcement. Mr. Kwon Seokhoon was a very important actor at KL Entertainment, and your relationship with the company seemed good, so I naturally thought you would renew the contract. Was there something that happened?"

At Go Seoyeong's question, Kwon Seokhoon looked away for a moment as if contemplating. It was a gaze that seemed to reflect deep consideration.

However, since they had already discussed what questions to ask in this interview, Go Seoyeong knew that Kwon Seokhoon deliberately showed such a reaction.

Perhaps it was a conscious action, aware of the camera capturing him.

He was indeed a veteran actor.

"Well There isn't much I can say about that part. Still, one thing I can say for sure is that contrary to what the public knows, my relationship with KL Entertainment wasn't as good as it seemed. I didn't receive the treatment everyone thinks I did."

"Are you suggesting that KL Entertainment mistreated an actor of your caliber, or was there some resentment?"

"Haha, well, it's a story that has been clarified now, and it's a past story, so I won't go into it deeply. I'll just say that my time at KL Entertainment was quite painful. That's all I'll say."

"Painful I understand."

Smiling with a satisfied smile, Go Seoyeong nodded her head.

Rather than openly exposing what happened, it's scarier to talk about it ambiguously. People will spread rumors on their own. Especially for someone like Kwon Seokhoon, with a thick fandom and high recognition, it's even more so.

After briefly discussing the contract with KL Entertainment, Go Seoyeong, to refresh the atmosphere, brought up another topic.

"Now that your contract with KL Entertainment has ended, you've become a free agent. It seems like you'll receive a lot of offers. Can you give us any hints about the contract?"

"Haha, well As you said, I've received offers from various places. Not to brag, but I've received some intriguing offers. But I haven't made a decision yet."

"I see."

Go Seoyeong said calmly. This was also a pre-discussed question with Kwon Seokhoon.

But then, Kwon Seokhoon brought up something that Go Seoyeong didn't know.

"By the way The past was so painful that I didn't have the confidence to smile and act again. So, to return to my roots, I'm thinking of auditioning again."

Upon hearing this, Go Seoyeong was taken aback, her eyes widening in surprise.

Kwon Seokhoon is going to audition?'

This was akin to a high-ranking executive at a major corporation declaring that they would interview entry-level candidates. Swallowing in her dry throat, Go Seoyeong asked, "Can you tell us which project it is?"

"Unfortunately, I didn't say I would immediately join a project. Of course, I'll engage in projects as well, but right now, it's a time for self-reflection."

"Then"

As if she wouldn't miss a single word, Go Seoyeong was looking at Kwon Seokhoon when he spoke with a faint smile.

"Yes, I've heard that OS Entertainment will be holding auditions for new actors soon. So, I want to be evaluated not under my name' but based on my skills,' with the mindset of a newcomer."

A well-known established actor applying for an audition at a company selecting new actors.

A drop of sweat rolled down Go Seoyeong's back.

It's a scoop.'
