Chapter 78: There’s a really handsome guy, you know.
Chapter 78: There’s a really handsome guy, you know.
When Yoo Yeon Seo was about to start the first shooting of ‘People in Need Season 2’, the last episode of ‘Welcome to the Guest House’ was aired.
Raul, who suddenly collapsed, and Yoo Yeon Seo, who ran up to him as if he had something in mind, among the worried cast members.
-OMGㅠㅠㅠㅠ The kid collapsedㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-Yoo Yeon Seo is going up there?
-What is he going to do?
Yoo Yeon Seo had already established a reputation as a problem solver among the viewers.
When Park Seung-hwan was struggling alone in the kitchen, Yoo Yeon Seo quietly approached him with a knife and said, ‘Can I help you?’ Park Seung-hwan was startled and sat down.
[Hey, what do we do?]
[Did you break the machine again?]
[Hehe······.]
Kim I-jun also fixed the machine that he had broken. Actually, he got help from Beta.
When Lee Yoon-jung couldn’t open the sauce lid, Yoo Yeon Seo appeared out of nowhere and casually opened it and went to do his own thing. The viewers who had delusional lenses on were ecstatic about the chemistry between the two who stood side by side. There was also a rumor that they had a good relationship.
These things gave the viewers a good impression of him.
-What are we going to do with our Godkiㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-There’s not much hospital on that small island, right?
Raul was also very popular with the viewers because he had a cute face and got along well with the cast members. As the child’s condition worsened, the viewers were immersed and reacted explosively.
(How is he?!)
The PD brought the medical staff, but the child’s condition got worse. The screen changed for a moment and Jin Soo-ho and Kim I-jun ran in after meeting Raul’s parents.
(Where is the construction site?)
Yoo Yeon Seo, holding a phone, said urgently. Under Yoo Yeon Seo’s command, the cast members got in their cars and left. When they were anxious about the congested road during the festival, Lee Yoon-jung and Park Seung-hwan appeared on scooters and cleared the way.
(······Is that a helicopter sound?)
(Move back.)
The people who arrived at the construction site, the helicopter sound that was faintly heard in the tense situation, the PD edited this scene like a movie. The cast members who made a fence with their bodies in case the child would get hurt by the helicopter propeller wind, and Yoo Yeon Seo who shook his phone with a blank face at Park Seung-hwan’s words.
And at the end of the broadcast, they ended dramatically by delivering the news that Raul, who had surgery, was okay.
JSTV ‘Guest House’ achieved the highest ratings ever and ended···Season 2 possibility
‘Guest House’ Yoo Yeon Seo’s feat that shook off the controversy of being a spoiled brat
-Is this scripted?
└Even if it’s scripted, how do you get a helicopter?
└└Yoo Yeon Seo can do anything, right?
└└└He can, but it doesn’t make senseㅋㅋ Is the kid being sick also scripted?
-Wow, they even got a helicopter on a foreign island
As expected, the chaebol is different
└But who was the person who called from the car?
└└There was a rumor that Yoo Yeon Seo brought his personal secretary with him, right? Maybe it was the secretary
└└└That’s awesome
-Guest House was so fun, I hope they do season 2
But they have to go with the same members
└True
└The chemistry was really good, and so was the relationship
└But how many languages does Yoo Yeon Seo know?
└But I’m still not used to Yoo Yeon Seo and Kim I-jun being together, is it just me?
-But don’t you think they gave too much screen time to Yoo Yeon Seo?
└I don’t know
└I think you’re the only one who thinks thatㅎ
└The way to get more screen time=Summon a helicopter
There was always a controversy about the screen time because it was a program where top stars appeared. But most of them got good responses. Especially, many edited pictures were created from Yoo Yeon Seo’s expression when he received Raul’s drawing.
After the broadcast, the island became more famous as a tourist destination.
Especially, the Koreans never stopped coming. Some people were quick to take a plane even before the show was over.
“Hey! Isn’t that him?”
“Yeah!”
The local guide who helped the entertainment team was tired of the increased work, but his mind was calm. He was crossing the market to see Raul’s family, who he had become close to after going to the hospital together.
‘What?’
There were Korean tourists around Raul, who was playing in the market.
“Hey, look at this.”
“Do you understand if I speak Korean?”
“But he doesn’t even understand English?”
“You don’t know English? Aish······ Just try to gesture with your hands and feet.”
“Kid, let’s take a picture. Huh?”
They looked like YouTubers, and they were trying to force the kid to hold him for their channel. He didn’t want to interfere if the kid was having fun, but Raul was also shrugging his shoulders and looking around.
“Excuse me, excuse me!”
The guide was about to step in with a stick, when the young men of the neighborhood came rushing in. Some of them were pickpockets.
“*What are you doing?”
“*Get lost?”
They threatened them and the YouTubers were scared and put down their cameras and quietly disappeared far away.
“*Are you okay?”
They stroked Raul’s head and went their own way. They must have thought it was an action to protect the child who lived in their village, but the guide knew that the group was wary of Asians after the entertainment team left.
“*Excuse me, just a moment!”
The guide hugged Raul and hurried after them. One of the group who noticed that he was with the entertainment team stopped.
“*Why did you do that? You guys don’t do anything that doesn’t pay, do you?”
The man looked up and down the guide and opened his mouth.
“*······Someone told me to do it.”
“*Who?”
“*Well······ There’s a really handsome guy among the Koreans, you know.”
There are not one or two handsome people. But there is only one really handsome person. The guide enlarged the group photo that the entertainment team took before they returned to Korea and showed it to the other person.
“*This person?”
“*Yes, that’s right.”
“*Do you know what he said?”
The man who was caught by the guide sighed softly and opened his mouth.
Yoo Yeon Seo came to their hideout leisurely, with his hands in his pants pockets, as if he was going for a walk.
[*Oh, you were close by.]
He smiled slyly, looking at the men who surrounded him with caution and threat. He even sat down on a chair that was rolling around.
[*Is there anyone here who can speak English? Spanish? Italian? No? Anyway, anyone who can speak a foreign language other than the language of this island?]
He casually crossed his legs and asked questions in different languages, but no one in the gang answered him. It wasn’t that they couldn’t understand him. They were just wary of Yoo Yeon Seo, a foreigner.
Yoo Yeon Seo got up with a bored expression. He dusted off his thighs.
[*No one? Can’t you talk?]
[*Who are you!]
One of the thugs who didn’t know the situation ran towards Yoo Yeon Seo.
Yoo Yeon Seo smiled faintly and dodged the man’s fist by turning his head. He grabbed his wrist and twisted it, then spun the man around and slammed him to the ground with his weight. It was a fast and precise movement.
[*Aaah!]
The man was muscular and bulky, as if he had bulked up, but he was easily subdued by Yoo Yeon Seo, who was relatively small in stature.
His friend screamed, but the rest of the gang hesitated and didn’t lift a finger. Yoo Yeon Seo smirked at them.
[*You know you can’t mess with me, right? Didn’t you hear from the big shot here?]
They all swallowed their saliva. The day after Yoo Yeon Seo and his crew arrived on the island, the police chief came and warned them not to touch the Koreans on the island.
[*Hey, let’s make this easy. Where’s your brain?]
[*Here.]
[*Oh, Spanish. I’m glad we can communicate.]
[*Can you let go of my friend first?]
He seemed to have a good sense of the situation, as his attitude changed.
Yoo Yeon Seo let go of his hand and got up. The man’s hand was pale from his grip. But Yoo Yeon Seo didn’t look tired at all.
[*Boss, what’s your name?]
[*Samuel.]
[*Good, Samuel.]
The man who was restrained by Yoo Yeon Seo backed away as if he was running away. Yoo Yeon Seo dusted off his hands.
[*Why are you here?]
[*I have a favor to ask.]
[*A favor?]
[*It’s not a hard thing, so relax.]
Yoo Yeon Seo patted Samuel’s shoulder a few times and sat back on the chair, crossing his legs.
[*Do you know Emilia from the souvenir shop in the market? Her husband is Bruno, and her kid is Raul…]
[*The family who took the helicopter yesterday?]
As expected, the rumor spread fast in this small town. Yoo Yeon Seo smiled leisurely.
[*I called that helicopter. The kid was sick.]
[*I know that. And I know you’re a very influential person.]
The atmosphere softened when they talked about the family who took the helicopter. They were also people who lived on this island.
This would make the conversation easier. Yoo Yeon Seo put his hand with a ring on his leg.
[*Anyway, protect that family. For about a year.]
Samuel frowned. He felt ignored, not to mention the tone of command.
[*We don’t bother the families who live on the island.]
You’re a bunch of punks who pickpocket and threaten tourists, and you’re hurt by your pride? He snorted, but he didn’t intend to interfere with their way of life. He was going back to Korea anyway.
[*I know. That’s why I came to you. You know we came here to film a show, right?]
[*Yes.]
And the police had their limits. They couldn’t patrol their jurisdiction all the time. So these guys who stole tourists’ wallets and wandered the streets were the best candidates.
[*When we leave, this island will be flooded with Asians. Especially Koreans who watched the show. But do you think all those Koreans are nice people? What if there are people like me?]
[*…]
[*The parents are busy making a living, and the kid has no choice but to spend time on the street… Don’t you think it’s wrong for rude people to use the kid because he was on the show?]
For example, they might force the kid to take pictures with them against his will, or a travel YouTuber might use the kid who appeared on the show to make money for their channel… There was a possibility.
[*Wouldn’t it be better to give money to that family? So the kid won’t be alone…]
[*Am I a philanthropist? Supporting a family I don’t know?]
A good deed without a reward could turn into poison. Money without labor could ruin Raul’s family.
Supporting that family now was nothing but charity. The kid could draw a little, but it wasn’t worth investing in.
Raul’s family was fine as they were. He was a bit worried about the kid being alone during the day, but at least the neighbors were kind, so he wasn’t completely neglected.
[*Just don’t touch the nice Koreans. I don’t care about the other Asians. I’ll pay you well.]
Samuel looked at his gang. They all nodded slightly. It was a matter of protecting a kid who lived on the island. And he was offering money, so there was no reason not to do it. But it hurt their pride to take orders from someone.
[*If you don’t want to do it, I’ll go to the other kids. I saw some other gangs besides you. Should I go to them?]
[*Wait!]
Samuel shouted in a hurry, as Yoo Yeon Seo didn’t give him time to think.
“*Well, that’s what happened.”
“*Thank you.”
The guide turned around after hearing the man’s answer. There was Yoo Yeon Seo’s face in the enlarged photo.
“Huh…”
The guide chuckled.
‘Did he have such a thoughtful side?’
He lived on a distant island, but he knew the rumors about Yoo Yeon Seo. He was a person who always dominated the news, so he couldn’t miss him.
At first, he wondered if he was as rude as the rumors said. But he was a different person than he thought, after meeting him in person.
And who would do so much for a kid he only met for a few days? No matter how rich he was, this kind of idea didn’t come out of nowhere.
“*Raul, shall we take a picture?”
“*Why?”
“*Let’s take a picture and tell Yeonseo hyung that we’re doing well.”
Raul smiled brightly and nodded when Yoo Yeon Seo’s name came up.
There were a lot of direct messages asking for a guide inquiry and a review of the cast members, as his face appeared on the show. He thought it would be perfect to post the story he just heard on his SNS, so he picked up his phone.
***
Yoo Yeon Seo woke up to the vibration of his phone. It was a report from Im Seunghyun about Ryu Hyekyung.
‘He’s sharp.’
The clock pointed to 8 a.m. Yoo Yeon Seo lazily lifted his upper body and turned on his tablet.
Ryu Hyekyung
Born on June 28, 1962 in Gongju, Chungcheongnam-do
He flipped through the pages. He didn’t care about her childhood or where she graduated from.
February 1981, went to Myeongdong to meet her cousin and was scouted on the street, joined an agency.
November 1981, debuted as a member of ‘Twinkle’, the first dance girl group in Korea.
Yoo Yeon Seo lay down on the bed again as he read the report.
‘It won’t be easy…’
