62. I’ve never really thought of an ideal type…

“ruler! Now, most people will know, but please introduce yourself.”

“Yes hello, viewers. Greetings through Seok Quiz. I am actor Song Kyu-ha.”

“Yes~ Finally, Gyuha Song found our seok quiz~!”

Wow.

The crew gave a small cheer.

“First of all, you have reached 8 million actors for the role of Sukjong in the movie The Great. Congratulations.”

“thank you. All thanks to the viewers.”

The talk seemed to flow smoothly, and MC Seok Jun-ryeol’s eyes suddenly sparkled with playfulness.

“So… it’s so-called, it’s popped up~ How do you feel?”

It might have been an embarrassing question, but Kyu-ha was calm.

“I’m bewildered. I haven’t felt it yet or anything like that. I don’t go out of the house very often.”

“Honestly, did you expect the greatest box office success?”

“Um… I didn’t expect it at all. Previously, the genre of historical drama was not an easy genre when viewed only through box office success, and since our movie is a 19-karat gold movie, I couldn’t even think of a score like this.”

“okay. I’m sorry, but if we were to appear in a historical drama, which character would suit us?”

“I do not know. clown?”

“A clown? But I don’t think I can ride the line because I have acrophobia. How about our shit? eunuch.”

“Yeah? suddenly? me? Well anyway, since he’s in the palace, he’s a high-ranking person, right? That’s it.”

After changing the topic with a light joke, Seok Jun-ryeol smoothly moved on to the next question.

“If you search for ‘Song Gyu-ha’ on the portal site, you will see many comments saying ‘He has a face where good and evil coexist.’ Do you think this is true?”

“I think it’s because I played a good role and a bad one, but if you look closely, my eyes are evenly matched, so if you focus on the left one, it looks a bit cool, and the right one has a double inner eyelid, so it has a soft feel.”

“Oh, there was such a secret. Is it because there are such various charms? You say you’re especially close to the long-awaited actors whenever you work?”

“I often contact Cha Kyung-seok, whom I met in ‘In the Name of the Devil’, and Park Chang-soo, whom I met in ‘The Supreme’. We ate together a few days ago.”

“They’re not easy to meet on a regular basis, are they? What kind of people do you think the two of you are to Kyuha-san?”

“First of all, Cha Kyung-seok has a humane charm and easy-going personality to the extent that I can easily call him hyung even though there is a nearly 20-year age difference with me. Teacher Park Chang-soo is always considerate of his juniors even on set, and he is close to perfectionism when it comes to acting, to the extent that he never utters long lines. And the code works well with me. That’s why I think most of the time I had a frantic conversation with the teacher during breaks.”

“Yeah. I already have more juniors than seniors, but it’s not easy for a distant junior to do that, so you’re amazing. Ah, this is the question our writers always asked us to ask. Geumbi, a genius tomb that we met by chance at Jijon (至尊) and became friends with, asked me to ask if I was doing well. The artist holding the sketchbook in front of me over there.”

Soon, the camera took a close-up of one of the artists whose face was covered with a sketchbook.

“Sure, I’m doing well. I just brought him out today.”

At that moment, the camera took a close-up of Geum-bi, who was in the arms of her manager Bong-gu with a harness on, looking only at Gyu-ha.

“Aww! So cute…”

The writers fell in love with Geumbi’s cuteness and didn’t know what to do. However, Geumbi didn’t give a glance and only stared at Gyuha.

“That friend is the famous genius tomb, Geumbi. Isn’t that unusual? Even though there are so many people, only Gyuha is looking at you. It’s a strange relationship that makes you wonder if they weren’t lovers in a previous life. Ah, so speaking of that, what would your ideal type be?”

“Your ideal type…?”

Kyu-ha was momentarily dazed at the question he was receiving for the first time in his life. In fact, it was because I did not understand what the feeling of liking for the opposite sex was. However, I felt awkward because I couldn’t say ‘a female who can solve my sexual desire well’.

“Ideal type… I’m embarrassed because I’ve never really thought of an ideal type, but I’m faithful to my instincts. No! I think I like the honest style.”

“You mean you like a humane and easy-going style. Ah~ I like all kinds of women like that.”

“I like it a lot too. Please feel free to contact me, such a woman.”

“Hey, what are you doing? Embarrass yourself in front of guests.”

“oh! sorry. Stop being lonely these days.”

Seok Jun-ryeol and Han Dong-gi’s contro talk atmosphere continued to flow smoothly. I wonder if this is the reason why actors prefer this program. The Seok Quiz talk has now come to an end.

“Attaching the number of top-notch audiences is becoming a hot topic. What is this about?”

“At the time of the premiere, the MC asked me about the box office promise, so I made a promise that if I achieve more than 8 million, I will perform on the street wearing a dragon robe overseas. I didn’t know.”

“Puhahahaha, a street performance wearing a dragon robe? Is this quite large? Honestly, you didn’t expect 8 million, did you promise?”

“You should see that.”

“Ahahahaha~ You must keep this promise.”

“of course. A promise is a promise. We are planning soon, so please wait a little bit for the viewers.”

“good. I will definitely watch the video of that promise.”

MC Seok Jun-ryeol, who looked sideways at the artist’s closing sign, moved on to the Quiz Solving Corner, the final corner of the Seok Quiz.

“Now then, let’s start a quiz that costs 1 million won in earnest! Gyuha-san’s Seok Quiz?”

Kyuha, who was already familiar with the broadcast, answered familiarly.

“I can do it!”

“ruler! Then the problem goes. In ancient Greece, it was said to be the food of the gods, the Romans regarded it as dew from the sky, and in Egypt, it is said to have been used as a preservative for mummies. What is this called mankind’s first sweetener?”

I was given a moment to think. However, I don’t know about others, but it was a very easy problem for Kyu-ha.

“This is not an easy problem to solve. What is the answer?”

“The correct answer is honey.”

“Coul? The honey we know? The answer is… yes! Honey is right. Hey, you got this right.”

Assistant MC Han Dong-gi’s eyes widened as if he hadn’t expected it.

“I thought it was salt. I thought you salted the mummies the same way you salt fish.”

“Hey, I’m so embarrassed. Can’t I just stay over there?”

“It is not a sin to be ignorant.”

“It’s not over yet! If you answer correctly, you will be given another chance to try again. The difficulty is much higher, but the prize money is 4 million won. Please note that if you get the second question wrong, the 1,000,000 won prize money will be lost. Would you still like to try?”

Kyuha answered without hesitation.

“Yes, I will challenge you. Instead, if I get this problem right, I will donate 10 million won to the Hope Center to help children with incurable diseases, including the prize money of 4 million won and my personal expenses of 6 million won.”

Surprised MCs Seok Jun-yeol and Han Dong-gi’s eyes widened.

“Yeah? I would like to make a donation. Why all of a sudden..?”

“They say that donations have a lot of tax savings. And since there are many children among my close acquaintances, I want to do that.”

It was a sincere statement, but Seok Jun-ryeol was embarrassed by Kyu-ha, so he thought he was joking and burst into laughter.

“Ha ha ha This is the most realistic and touching reason among the reasons for donation I have ever heard. good. Then I’ll give you the second question. Great.”

Seok Jun-ryeol cleared his throat once and then raised a problem with a clear pronunciation.

“What is this, a way of expressing sympathy and pity in the audience or reader in terms of literature, originally from the Greek meaning deep feelings of passion or pain?”

Assistant MC Han Dong-gi just shook his head.

“I really have no idea…”

However, this problem was also easy for Kyuha. Rather, if a problem such as a buzzword or abbreviation that is popular these days came up, I would not have been able to guess it.

“The correct answer is pathos.”

“Facesos is the correct answer!! In this way, Mr. Song Gyu-ha wins 4 million won!”

Seok Jun-ryeol was excited and shouted the correct answer.

“I can’t even hear you? I know Pegasus, but I’ve never heard of Pegasus. Ha ha ha ha ha.”

“I knew about chili sauce, but I’m unfamiliar with pesos.”

“Hey, please, just do verse 1.”

After Seok Jun-ryeol and Han Dong-gi’s talk, we asked Kyu-ha how he felt.

“You got all the answers right and won 4 million won. How do you feel now?”

“I am so happy. It’s so nice to be able to save money, and I think my image will improve.”

“Ahahahaha, you look the same. ruler! So, let’s end today’s time by paying attention to Song Gyu-ha, who seems to show more unusual moves in the future. We’ll see you next time. Goodbye~~~”

The official recording ended with Seok Jun-ryeol’s closing remarks.

“Good work, Mr. Kyuha. You did a great job on today’s broadcast.”

“I had a lot of fun today too, senior. See you next time.”

After greeting the MCs lightly, Kyu-ha approached PD Lim Tae-hoon.

“As I said before, PD, I will send you 6 million won separately, so please donate the prize money plus 4 million won to the organization I mentioned earlier.”

“Sure, Mr. Kyuha. I thank you for doing a good job. I will send you a remittance account through the manager. And I will send you a separate donation statement and it will be broadcasted.”

“all right. Then I will leave.”

“Thank you for your effort!”

After all the broadcasts, Kyu-ha got into the waiting van, with Bong-gu in the driver’s seat and Geum-bi in the back seat waiting for Kyu-ha.

“Brother, you worked hard today.”

“Nyaaaong.”

“Was it hard to wait? You worked hard too. Geumbi worked hard too.”

“Nyaang.”

“Hey, I was watching hyung-nim’s broadcast, but I didn’t realize the time was passing. I think the broadcast will come out well. I will go home right away.”

“Okay, let’s go home.”

I arrived at the house after watching the Han River Bridge in a daze at the colorful lights outside the window.

“Brother, go in and get some rest. There is no official schedule for the time being. I will contact you.”

“Yes, Bong-gu. You also suffered a lot. Hurry up and get some rest. Thank you always.”

“ha ha ha. My brother also says something special. Geumbi is fine too.”

“Meow.”

Still, because she saw Bong-gu often, it was Geum-bi who would talk back to her.

“Come on, let’s go in, Geumbi.”

After entering the house, Gyu-ha washed her face and immediately lay down on the bed.

“Haa… I’m tired.”

There was almost no physical fatigue, but mental fatigue was considerable, probably because of the 13th dream, which had recently started again. Gyu-ha’s eyes, which had been lying in a daze, quickly closed.

***

waaa

The familiar cheers of the audience.

Madness felt on all sides.

The rough dirt floor that you can feel under your feet.

The strong smell of blood tickling the tip of the nose.

Even today, Meogines stood at the Pankration Arena, a fight of death.

Jupiter approached Meogyneth in the waiting room.

“Congratulations on your 8th consecutive win. You’ve already earned yourself the nickname of Meoginess the Immortal. But the next opponent won’t be easy. Because Uranus from Sparta is said to be evil. It’s called the Devil’s Hand.”
