[36] Genius (3)

JTBS 「Getting Married into a Conglomerate」 Script reading meeting room.

I sat in a corner seat and kept my seat at the script reading site.

Actors everyone in Taiwan would know by name were reading the script.

“Assistant Director! When is the Director coming?”

At that time, actor Bae Young-seon raised his hand and asked a question.

She felt it even when she quarreled with Eunseo, but her tone was cheap.

‘It’s an agency.’

Our Eunseo is from a good company, but she got it with her skills.

There were even malicious articles saying that I auditioned as an idol.

“He’s coming now.”

“Okay?”

I shook my head and looked around.

“Hello.”

“Ah.”

Then, someone in the seat next to me spoke to me.

“I’m in charge of Suyeon right now.”

“Yes. Hello. Senior.”

Belongs to Dream Agency Management.

Manager Kim, who takes care of actress Lee Soo-yeon after me.

The other person looked at me with eyes that were neither friendly nor hostile.

“Our Soo-yeon owes a lot to her.”

“How are you?”

“I came here because of this work, manager Jeong Soo-ho.”

“…”

He spoke with a sad expression.

“I’ve never discussed choosing a work with me before.”

“… Sorry.”

“There is nothing to be sorry about.”

I think it’s because of me.

I’m just sorry for nothing.

“Let’s say hello often from now on.”

“Yes. Senior.”

At that moment, the director and writer slowly entered the meeting room.

In fact, on the drama board, omnipotent power.

Even the elder actors fold their numbers in front of them.

Writer before filming begins, director after filming begins.

‘Ugh, that’s bloody.’

Breaking the quiet atmosphere, the director looked around and said.

“Shall we start right away?”

“…”

It’s like a scene before a storm.

Some actors raised their eyes sharply.

They seem to think of this script reading as an actual performance.

‘What’s wrong with the atmosphere.’

Is it because of my mood?

Actress Lee Soo-yeon, who was suddenly put in, and Jang Eun-seo, who were selected through an audition.

I wondered if the atmosphere was created by the two of them.

“Okay then, let me introduce myself.”

Famous director, writer Jung Hee-ae.

Following the brief impressions of the two, a self-introduction relay was held.

Eunseo, who was proudly selected as the lead actress at the audition, stood up for the fourth time.

“I am Jang Jang-seo, the actress who played the role of Do Yeon-joo. I will work hard.”

The younger sister of the male lead and the sub female lead.

A princess from a conglomerate who runs out of her family and challenges to stand alone.

The main point was that the people around her did not know her identity.

Clap clap clap clap-

While clapping their hands, some of the actors gave Eunseo a slight disapproval.

In particular, actor Bae Young-seon was blatantly ignored, saying that he was an idol.

‘Eunseo, calm down.’

As soon as she sat back down, her hand shaking her script.

I’m thankful that actress Lee Soo-yeon holds me tight next to me.

‘That’s not nervous, it’s pissed off.’

Finally, after the self-introduction of the supporting actors.

The assistant director finally announced the start of the script reading.

“Then let’s start with the first scene!”

The assistant director introduced scenes, numbers, explanations of situations, and characters.

“Do Jeong-ho gracefully enters her conference room and pats Do Yeon-joo on the shoulder.”

“… Don’t be nervous.”

“Brother!!! Why are you coming in now!?”

There was a deep sigh in Jang’s voice.

If you already show your emotions, what about the later scenes?

‘… Is it Jojin?’

A tingling sensation slowly crept into the back of his head.

* * *

Lee Soo-yeon recalled her rookie days from her Eun-seo appearance.

Although she did hesitate briefly with her choice of work in between.

She was once called a rising star and she got attention.

Soon after, Soo-yeon looked at the corner of Jung’s mouth and was convinced.

‘… You’ve been recognized.’

Capitalism aegyo forged through her idol life.

A variety of emotional expressions inherent in her from birth.

Will it be like this if Do Yeon-joo, a daughter of a conglomerate family, breaks through the script?

She acted with a dignified tone as if she had experienced the life of a real conglomerate.

When she runs out of the house and plays part-timers, she even acts close to life.

‘Is the spectrum this wide?’

As expected, manager Jeong Su-ho prepared it since he was a trainee.

Both idols and actors were perfectly set up and debuted.

‘Jeong Soo-ho, you raised a monster.’

Vocal, dance, production, and even acting skills.

Is there any other team with such a good balance?

Sigh-

I slightly turned my gaze to look at manager Jeong Soo-ho.

‘I’m not satisfied with this…!?’

How far did you expect from a rookie actor?

That’s why I’ve heard that it’s overworked.

Rumor has it that Yeji practices for 10 hours a day.

‘That devilish human.’

During the Dream Agency days, actors were used as maruta for practice.

Are you rolling it like crazy now and using it to fill your career?

‘…But it’s better now.’

If you endure the hard times, you will become a top star.

Jung Soo-ho was rolling with that kind of curriculum.

Is it because Jang Eun-seo, whom I was most worried about, showed good acting?

The atmosphere at the script reading site gradually went in a better direction.

However, someone stepped in and poured cold water on the atmosphere.

“Writer! Eunseo’s acting is so excessive that it breaks my immersion.”

“… Okay?”

Bae Young-sun deliberately touched Eun-seo’s feelings.

Jang-seo trembled his hands as if the plan had worked.

He held his hand tightly in pity.

‘It’s too much for a baby.’

＜Top Idol＞

I built a friendship while progressing.

Su-yeon put on her arms and refuted her words.

“Senpai, am I really happy right now?”

“What?”

“It’s just my opinion.”

“…”

Bae Young-sun bites her lip at the cold stares of the actors and staff.

Soo-yeon smiled at her and called the seniors around her.

“Hyeonu-senpai, this is the scene where Do Yeon-joo is beaten up.”

“Yes why?”

“You look so much fun, so I think it would be nice to save more.”

“Is it.”

Writer Jung Hee-ae reacted to Soo-yeon’s words.

“You recognize it? I was trying to save him.”

“Right? Author.”

“Hmm, then shall we go with something suitable for women?”

“Oh, is that good?”

At that moment, Be Young-seon made an expression as if he had chewed shit.

Because she was the woman the two of them were talking about.

“Uh, uh, but in terms of atmosphere…”

“Why is Youngseon so bad?”

“No. I think I’m fine too! Ho-ho.”

“Then shall we go with something that suits both of us?”

“… Yes.”

Soon, Jang-seo calmed her trembling hands and smiled brightly.

‘I’m relieved.’

Soon, Eun-seo brings out her words in a booming voice.

Her nervous look seemed bright everywhere.

“I will hit you hard! Senior!”

“Ahahahaha.”

Eun-seo’s joke brightened the atmosphere in the script reading room again.

‘… Is this a joke?’

I hope girl groups don’t deliberately NG.

* * *

A few days after the script reading.

Lee Soo-yeon’s interview was a hot topic in the community every day.

Although she knew that she was originally a style with a lot of affection.

“Isn’t this your interview?”

An interview in which Jang Jang-seo’s acting was praised.

The comment atmosphere was exactly half and half.

＜Top Idol＞

The opinion that it was a friendship, and the opinion that it was acknowledged as a real actor.

Actress Lee Soo-yeon is not the kind of person who evaluates other people’s acting based on her friendship.

‘Eunseo is an acting genius…’

I’m not going to praise you that much.

Even I was confused about the truth.

“Anyway.”

There is still some time left before Eunseo’s first filming.

I wish I could prove it in a real drama.

Let’s just adjust the conditions well at the filming set.

Drooling-

The door of the van opened, and the members entered one by one.

“Manager! Hello!”

“Manager oppa, hi!”

“Brother, can I ride with dumbbells?”

“… Will it work?”

“It works.”

I think I heard something strange, but I should ignore it.

“You guys have an event today.”

“Oh, long time no see.”

The CEO and the general manager don’t pay attention.

Looking at the atmosphere of the staff, I thought I should hold an event.

‘I have to make some money for the company.’

I only sing three songs and start at least 3,000.

I raised it hard, but I only sucked up the fans’ money with goods.

“Where are we going?”

“It’s a university event. I caught it a while ago.”

“Oong Street of Youth, Peace.”

“… Somi.”

“Yes?”

I continued the conversation with Somi, who gave off a pleasant tea.

“Why are you in such a bad mood today?”

“It’s just that, I don’t think good is good. hehehe.”

“Hmm, have you familiarized yourself with the basic rules of the escape room maze?”

“Isn’t that okay?”

“… You know it starts right from tomorrow, right?”

“Of course.”

“Let’s pay some attention.”

After tomorrow’s production presentation, we were supposed to start filming on the weekend.

If you start filming for the first time right away, it’s a blood-drying survival show every week.

“They say that you have to survive until episode 5 to organize a reality show.”

“Manager brother, Lisseon.”

“Uh. Tell me.”

“Who wants to be on a reality show the most? Who is that? Really, who is it?”

“… You.”

“Yatsu!”

What’s so exciting

Do some cramming.

“Somi, let’s work hard.”

“Yap yap.”

PD Kim, I heard it directly from my juniors.

Other performers said they were practicing.

“You guys have to take care of your neck, so I’ll lip-sync today…”

In an instant, an itchy sensation surged through the back of my head.

‘Mistress, I need to take care of my neck.’

I can’t speak my way

I have no choice but to go with a reverse bet.

“Guys, let’s go live today.”

“Yeah? The company says to lip-sync…”

“I need to find my original intention.”

In an instant, Yeji reacted to the word ‘first intention’.

“I like live!”

“Really?”

She looked at me with passionate eyes.

“Our members have never lost their original intentions!”

“I lost? I took a break from the gym yesterday… Billion.”

Yeji lightly subdued Yang Joo-hee with her slender arms and continued her words.

“First of all, I’ll start with the mic.”

“Are you sure you’ll be okay?”

“Sure. It’s a place to meet fans.”

“…”

If the main vocalist says it’s okay, then it’s okay.

I want to take care of my neck, but my neck is blocking it.

Kiki-Ik-

When she arrived at the scene, she checked the crowds.

Countless people gathered to see Solar.

It wasn’t the first time at the event, but it was in front of the largest audience.

“Guys, I prepared Cheongsimhwan.”

“No, you don’t have to.”

“Yes? Then.”

On stage, the members were always professional.

“Guys, let’s get off.”

* * *

Next day.

Tvm 「Escape Room Maze」 Production Presentation Venue.

Geniuses gathered one by one.

“Nice to see you.”

“Hello.”

Hwang In-woo, a participant in his 20s, smiled inwardly as he scanned people.

‘I’m the best.’

Regardless of appearance or intelligence, I was thinking of becoming a star through this broadcast.

I was always confident in the game of selecting geniuses like this.

“In-woo, were you a K-ST college student?”

“Ah, yes! Are you a senior?”

“hahahaha. It would be nice to be young.”

“Senior is young too!”

“Thank you.”

A CEO from Caset University.

His head must have hardened a long time ago.

“Mr. In-woo! Do you see it again and again at the meeting?”

“Yes, sister!”

“You look good today too. Can I become a celebrity?”

“Thank you. hahahaha.”

“Tell me your contact information later.”

“Yes! My acquaintance in the legal profession is reassuring.”

“What are you saying, ho-ho?”

Although my lawyer sister in her 30s is also intelligent.

To be honest, this edition was a war between sciences.

At that time, the reporters sitting in front of the press conference opened their flashlights.

An idol walking leisurely between them.

Somi Shin walked lightly and said hello.

“Hello!”

“Wow, you’re a superstar.”

“That’s right. hahahaha.”

A person I am grateful for who makes a topic of interest in this broadcast.

I should make good use of up to episode 3 and stop losing at the right time.

‘If I take it for a long time, it’s dangerous for me too.’

A stupid ally is more dangerous than a brilliant enemy.

In the beginning, you have to form a team unconditionally and nurture it with sincerity.

Somi would love it if she was on the side of a young genius like herself.

I’ll have to take a picture and send it to you.

Ask me to appear on You Tube later.

“So-mi, let’s say my name is Hwang In-woo…”

“Ohh, great! For fans!!!”

Shin So-mi passed herself and approached the pro gamer.

“Uh, you’re my fan?”

“Daebak, I can’t believe I saw the legend in real life!!!”

“Ah, I’m retired now.”

“Louispin who conquered the League!!! That’s why I appeared here!”

“Wow, after living, days like this come.”

“Luipin-sama, please sign me!”

“Oki, Cole!”

A crack appeared in Hwang In-woo’s calm expression.

Ruifang, a professional gamer who didn’t even see him as a competitor.

Are you saying you want to team up with someone who only plays games?

‘Just because I’m a fan…?’

Or, are you mistaken that Luifeng will give you a bus ride?

I don’t think you know who will rule this board.

‘Okay, I understand.’

I will unconditionally send Ruifang to the deathmatch first from episode 1.

If you let them realize the reality, they’ll quickly find out who’s in the real world.

‘… However.’

Shin So-mi, a small girl who seems to have no thoughts.

She took her autograph and smiled at her room.

‘Idols are idols.’

Why is it so lovely and crazy about the subject who is a competitor?

After a while,

PD Kim Ji-hoon held a production presentation according to the time.

As a first-time director, he answered reporters’ questions with sincerity.

“Our treasure is, of course, Somi.”

“How long do you think you’ll survive?”

“Probably about 5 episodes…? You get 100 points in math each time. hahahaha”

“…You mean middle school math, right?”

“Ah, in middle school, I never got 100 points.”

“Wahhahahaha.”

For a moment, Hwang In-woo failed to manage his expression and frowned.

‘I’m not kidding the kids right now.’

I’m so mad I can’t speak.

100 points in middle school math.

I participated in the Math Olympiad and won a prize.

I couldn’t even solve half of it, but I still received the encouragement award.

“Then Somi-san.”

“Yeah!”

“I’m just going to ask you to say something.”

“Hmm.”

Somi pondered for a moment, then she smiled and continued.

“I’m going to go to the finals. hehehe.”

“…”

For a moment, a strange silence passed between the performers.

I just looked at the cute girl as if I was dumbfounded.

‘Are you kidding me?’

Shin So-mi speaks with a smile.

It seems that there is no malice, so it gets more king.

In the distance, Somi’s manager scratched the back of her head and made a strange expression.

‘The company ordered it.’

Somehow, the kid couldn’t have made such a statement alone.

Are you a puppet idol who does what the company tells you to do?

“You’re saying that So-mi has the confidence to win every time, right?”

“Honestly… She’s not confident.”

“Oh yeah?”

“Yes. She’s in the middle and she’s not confident!”

“…”

School meal idol, thanks to the company, one confidence was the strongest in mankind.
