Chapter 100
"Ah! Actor Kang Jinseok said he was the one who let him come this far?!"
"He was among the top three actors in the acceptance speech of the acting grand prize."
"He. No, he's the youngest father
The staff glanced at Kwak Doyeon and threw a word at each other.
"Come on, be quiet!"
After silencing the noisy conference room again, the producer calmly told the youngest.
"Certainly. I think they're quite close enough to mention it separately in the awards speech."
"Yes, Kang Jinseok once came to our home.
"He came to your home?
"Yes. At that time, I thought he was just a very handsome brother". I didn't expect it to go this well.
"Doyeon, if you cast Kang Jinseok.
Jinseok came to Kwak Doyeon's house to take the drunk class president back after the company dinner, but he didn't even mention that.
"I buy beef with my personal card.
A bold pledge by a veteran producer who is famous for not buying coffee.
Kwak Doyeon scratched his nose with a dazed hand gesture at the PD's voice, which was added with seriousness and expectation.
"Then first of all Should I contact my father?"
***
After returning home after eating with director Yeo Jaeyoon, I cleaned every corner of the house.
In my mind, the audition would have ended, I wanted to postpone it to tomorrow, but I couldn't.
In a little while, I'll have a visitor at my house for the first time.
"Whoa. This should be enough.
I turned off the vacuum cleaner, which got hot from inhaling the dust for a long time, and looked around.
Wouldn't this be a clean house for a man living alone?
When I was looking around the clean house satisfactorily, someone rang the bell.
The time is 5:30. It's exactly the time we promised.
I put the vacuum cleaner on the floor and immediately checked the intercom. As expected, the guys are pushing their faces into the intercom camera.
Bad faces but so heartwarming to me. They are warehouse part-timers.
"Are you here?"
"Oh! Yes, Jinseok. It's here!"
"Oh! Park Chunsam! Don't push me!"
Pushing the class president who was standing in the front, Park Chunsam was the first to enter the house.
The class president, who lost the first place, shouted, but of course, Mr. Park Chunsam spoke confidently without paying a little attention.
"Wow, but the house is nice! Is it different because it's the house of Wald Star?
"I'm not a wald star, I'm a world star, you ignorant punk."
"Whether it's a world or a wald, it just needs to be meaningful.
"Then can I call you Mojiri?"
"Why?"
"Park Chunsam or Moji, the meaning works.
"You're so mean.
The old men's talk for the first time in a long time made me laugh without realizing it.
It's been a while since I've seen them, but they're still the same. After they stormed in, Jang Sunho, who guided the men, came in the last.
"Manager, you must be tired from taking me to audition in the morning, but I'm sorry to ask you to do this.
"No, thank you for inviting me to the housewarming party.
As Jang Sunho said, the reason why the men and Jang Sunho visited the house today was because of the " Housewarming Party.."
It's been a while since I moved in, so it's a little late to have a housewarming party, but I still wanted to invite the men at least once.
I invited Jang Sunho because I thought it would be good to join the party, and he accepted it with joy.
While I was greeting Jang Sunho, the men all scattered around and started looking around the house.
"The house is really nice!"
"Kya, Jinseok really succeeded."
"Wow, look at the bathroom. It's no joke? I think it'll be enough to stack the people who will die after drinking today."
"There's not much furniture. Is this "Animal Life" that's been on TV a lot these days?
"It's not Animal', it's Minimal Life'. You're a genius.
There were a lot of questions around, but first, I took a lot of drinks out of the refrigerator and handed them to the men.
"You must have had a hard time coming, so eat this first. But what did you buy so much? I told you not to buy anything because you have everything you need.
"If the house is here, of course, I should buy a present. By the way.
The class president looked around and said.
"Did anyone come here?"
"What? No, why?
"It's too clean for a man's house. Did someone else come and clean it?
The men's attention was drawn to the president's words.
"That's true.
"As far as I can see with 25 years of experience, this is definitely the house where a woman came. Otherwise, if a man lives alone, there's no reason to clean the house.
"I'm a former detective, and I admit it. Hey, look through the floor. Maybe there's a long hair. The criminal always leaves evidence.
I laughed in vain at the start.
"There's no woman, no one else came here."
"Suspects all say that at first. Never met, never talked on the phone. And then when the evidence comes out.
Uncle Park Chunsam said in a solemn voice that didn't suit him. Leaving them behind, I laid out a large table in the living room that had been taken out in advance.
The men are searching for traces of a woman who can't be around for a long time. The men who had been scouring the floor for more than 10 minutes fell on the sofa and said.
"Wow, there isn't. He really doesn't have any.
"Kang Jinseok is a thorough child. You've got rid of all the evidence.
"I'm sure there's no evidence."
The men, led by Uncle Park Chunsam, shook their heads as if they were sorry.
"I cleaned because you guys were coming today. Stop having strange doubts and have a drink."
A small commotion passed, and a full-fledged housewarming began. And naturally, our topic became the dinner menu'.
"Let's eat jokbal. Pigs' feet."
"Eat off your feet. Chinese restaurants are the basis of housewarming parties.
"Pork back-bone stew is delivered. Can't you cook it and eat it?
"What about drinks?"
"Oh, I filled the refrigerator with alcohol in advance.
"Soju?"
"By type.
"Jinseok, you had a plan, didn't you?
In the end, we failed to unify the menu, so we decided to order what we wanted to eat, and we decided to get it as soon as it was delivered. Soon after, the living room was lined with various dishes.
"Now, cheers to Jinseok's new house! Let's play quietly so that there's no noise between floors!
A drinking party that started with the introduction of the class president. While having such a good time for such a long time, Mr. Kim pointed to the phone in front of the class president.
"Hey, he gets a call?
"Hmm? You're right. Who's at this hour.
Frowning as if his eyes were gloomy, the class president struggled to stare at his cell phone. Then, suddenly, he shook his hand and shouted in a hurry.
"Hey! Hey!! Everyone, be quiet! My Son's calling!
The class president's made the surroundings quiet, not to mention who said it first.
Kwak Doyeon, the son of the class president, was one of the few people the class president was afraid of.
And he hated the class president drinking alcohol extremely much.
The house went quiet in an instant. Men who didn't normally fit in well were in good harmony at times like this.
"Uh, son. Why?"
It seemed that he tried not to show that he had drunk as much as possible, but the sound from the tip of his tongue was awkward, perhaps because he had already drunk quite a lot.
"What, alcohol? Oh, no! Dad doesn't drink. I have to go to work tomorrow, I can't drink. Dad's not that kind of person."
You got caught.
I couldn't hear the call, but I could quickly notice it in the class president's words.
Say you're drinking with me.'
I often became an excuse for the class president because his son took it into account when he was drinking with me.
"It's not because Dad wanted to drink, but because of Jinseok's housewarming party, I had no choice but to just have a beer."
As expected.
"What? Are you really with Jinseok? Oh, of course! It's true? Do you want me to hand him the phone? All right!"
The voice of the class president, who had been crawling on the floor a little while ago, suddenly became confident, and suddenly gave me his cell phone and said.
"Hey, Jinseok. Please say a word."
"What? Oh, yes."
I often defended the class president in the past, so I wasn't so embarrassed. He said after clearing his throat by looking at the name "Son" on the screen.
"Hmmm. Hello, Doyeon, I'm Kang Jinseok. I'm sorry. Because of my housewarming party, the class president.
[Is it really Kang Jinseok?]]
[Wow].]
[Everyone, be quiet!]
Perhaps it was a speakerphone, the surrounding reaction came to the mobile phone. I was blindfolded because I didn't know what to do, but I heard my name from beyond my cell phone.
[Hello, Kang Jinseok]. I'm Kwak Doyeon. Remember What are you doing?]
"Yes, of course. But are there other people around you?"
[Yes]. Actually, I'm in the SKC <The Talk Show> team, and they're the ones.]
" You're the staff of The Talk Show?"
I woke up in a moment when I didn't even get very drunk.
Of course, I thought of him as a friends, but I can't believe his a broadcasting staff.
Surprised, his voice rose without realizing it. I didn't do anything wrong, but I felt like I had to change my posture, so I gathered my knees and sat politely.
Jang Sunho, who was on the opposite side, was sitting next to me and concentrating on the call.
[Yes]. I'm sorry. I didn't know you all this time.]
"Oh, it's not. That's okay, but?
[That's]. [I wanted to ask if you could appear on our show]
"Appearance?"
[Yes]. Tomorrow morning, we will officially include an offer to appear on OS Entertainment, but we are in a hurry. In fact.]
Kwak Doyeon explained the current situation quite long. To sum up, We have a problem with the broadcast that we have to go out next week right now, and your appearance will solve everything.'
[It's hard to tell you the details over the phone]. I think we should talk about it during the meeting between the managers. But I called you because I wanted to tell you that we're in a real hurry.]
While wondering what to answer, Jang Sunho quietly told me.
"Actor, may I take the call?"
"Oh, yes. That would be better."
After answering Jang Sunho briefly, he handed over the phone. Jang Sunho took over the cell phone and spoke calmly.
"I'm Kang Jinseok's manager, Jang Sunho."
***
SKC Broadcasting Station <The Talk Show> conference room, well after 1 a.m.
The PD, some staff, and Jang Sunho were having a meeting. It was late, but no one showed signs of tiredness.
What we want to ask you to do is that actor Kang Jinseok will appear and add what Park Hayeon said. I thought it would be quite noisy if the show went on like this."
The PD spoke to Jang Sunho, who was sitting at the opposite desk. Jang Sunho responded by staring at "The Talk Show Park Hayeon, Ha Minah's episode" on the screen.
"Definitely, I think this will be a problem if it goes on air. It's obvious that Park Hayeon received preferential treatment for auditions through actor Kang Jinseok."
Jang Sunho spoke calmly, but he was in a bit of deep agony.
"If the show goes on like that, Park Hayeon will be second to none, and it might hurt the actress as well."
Due to Jinseok's personality, Park Hayeon could not be given preferential treatment through personal friendship.
In the beginning, Jinseok didn't like Park Hayeon even before filming "The Way They Chose".
However, it was clear that the media and the public would not believe it. I'm sure they're talking freely about their open mouths.
The best way Is not to aired at all. But that would be practically impossible.'
If it didn't matter to Jinseok, Jang Sunho would have rejected the offer to appear on The Talk Show at once.
Of course, "The Talk Show" is a good program, but Jinseok's value is not low enough to appear in a hurry.
However, Jang Sunho, who judged that this could be a problem for Jinseok, looked at PD.
"Mr. PD."
"Yes, go ahead."
"Honestly, we're not very happy that our artist is mentioned on the show without discussing it in advance. It's not a good story either, even more so because it's about this."
.
"But I think it's hard to ask you to edit it altogether. Right?"
As a producer, it was upsetting for a manager to say this to him.
But at this late hour, he could not make such a point to anyone who had come running for them.
And most of all, Jang Sunho's momentum was not easy.
"That's right."
When the PD nodded, Jang Sunho immediately said.
"The water was spilled anyway, and if you leave it unattended, it will also damage actor Kang Jinseok." So. I think it's important to make sure that the story about Park Hayeon's audition doesn't become an issue."
"Yes. That's why we want to invite actor Kang Jinseok. That way, it will be blurred before it becomes controversial."
Jang Sunho shook his head at the PD's words.
"No. If you explain these issues, the problem grows as soon as you explain them."
"Well.
The PD took a deep breath at Jang Sunho's firm words. To be honest, even as a producer, I thought so at first glance.
"You're right. But. There's no other way. Unfortunately, in this situation, you have to choose.
"Why choose Chaak? I'll try to find the best."
Jang Suho cut off his words.
Everyone in the conference room looked at Jang Sunho in response to the new opinion that appeared in the sagging meeting.
"If it's the best?
When the PD asked carefully, Jang Sunho leaned on the table and spoke quietly.
"Issues can be covered with issues."
