Chapter 44
5 KL Entertainment actors.
Director 5 recalled a story in the conference room.
——
“You mean a revenge match?”
“I’m kidding. I was just saying it for fun, whatever.”
“—- I see.”
——
“Lee Homin and Kang Jinseok’s Revenge Match.” He told me not to bother because it was ‘fun’, but…
I couldn’t hear it right away.
He was a man who couldn’t understand what he was thinking.
Joking or not, you must not make a mistake this time.
What I learned when I became the director of KL Entertainment. It’s ‘one mistake, two failures, three job losses’.
He was already the head of the 5th office who made a mistake once, so he knew very well that if he made a mistake again this time, his position in the company would be at stake.
“Lee Homin’s best scenario is to pressure Kang Jinseok in the audition…”
Objectively speaking, Lee Homin is no match for Kang Jinseok.
Therefore, Director 5 did not want to create a situation in which Jinseok would compete in the first place.
The problem is that I don’t know what role Kang Jinseok is applying for.
(Singing “Woo-Woo-Woo-Woo-Woo”).
While I was thinking about it, the cell phone of the head of the 5th office rang. On the screen, it said, “Actor Lee Homin.
“Why did he call all of a sudden?”
The head of the 5th department answered the phone. Before I could say anything, Lee Homin snapped back.
[Director, I’m Lee Homin]. [I heard that Kang Jinseok might come to the audition for The Way They Chose.]
“—Kang Jinseok?”
[Yes]
Whoo. The fifth chief said, sighing inaudibly to Lee Homin.
“I’m not sure. It’s just…”
[I heard there was a lot of talk about him in the conference room]? [I heard it from the 4th manager.]
“Four heads, you loach poop-like punk…”
The 4th chief probably told Lee Homin the news to feed him.
However, even though he was angry now, he was the only one who lost, so he calmed his anger inside and said in a calm voice.
“Yes, there was such a story.”
[Yes]. [So please let me audition].
Hearing Lee Homin’s words, the head of the 5th section swept his face roughly. Then I rubbed my forehead for a long time and said.
“What role? “Is the script available?”
[Yes]. I haven’t watched all of them, but there’s one character I’m addicted to].
Lee Homin said while the head of the 5th office paused.
[I will audition for the role of Omanho.] I’ll make sure to prepare for the role until the audition. Please support me].

“Have you checked your Lux Entertainment profile?”
“I haven’t done that yet! The producer said there were no actors there to look at.”
“Burma, then you checked! Get rid of them all!”
Studio Redcat staff in charge of the production of “The Way They Chose”. Everyone was busy with the sudden big project.
Of course, Sergeant and PD are the busiest among them.
Ha Sarang, who wasted time smoking, was constantly handing out documents with a smoking cigarette.
“I’ll choose the location from the places I’ve listed in the past, leave the poster concept to the photo, and only confirm it later.” Since I left the script revision to writer Lee Yeonah, the first withdrawal will be released next week, and the OST will be directed by director Yoon Shinjong—.
Staff Sergeant, who handles a lot of things at once, making most veteran producers stand out.
She put down the cigarette she had in her mouth and said.
“Can someone give me a profile box number 9?”
“Yes.”
A clerk with dark circles up to his chin got up from his seat. Then he grumbled and brought the boxes stacked beside him to Ha Sarang.
“Wow. Here they are. Producer, don’t you think it’s convenient to just look at the profile on a tablet?
“Because I’m analog.”
After giving the crew a rough answer, Ha Sarang looked at the profile at the top of the box.
“This, this, this…”
“4 KL Entertainment Actors Room.”
“5 KL Entertainment Actors Room.”
It was a list of actors sent by KL Entertainment.
“Come on.” KL didn’t even want to get a profile.
I wanted to reject Rajinho’s work because I wanted to ruin it.
I had no choice but to get a profile because the head of KL Entertainment made a direct request.
It was difficult for Ha Sarang to refuse such a big man’s request without hesitation.
“Kwon Youngsun, Kim Sejun, Moon Jongchul, Rachel, Mingyu Ri.”
Ha Sarang’s eyes were astonished at the list.
“You’ve taken a completely different route than Room 5 and Room 4. I don’t think the two managers are very close.
While the five actors were mainly aiming for supporting roles, the four of them were openly aiming for leading roles.
At that time, she saw a profile that was shocking to her eyes.
“Homin, did you send me your profile?” Hmm. Should I let him through or not?
It wasn’t a bad choice considering his image and age. However, it was questionable whether he could show enough acting skills to attract attention.
Ha Sarang, who had been thinking about it for a while, finally put Lee Homin’s profile in a container with a “pass” sticker on it.
Fewer actors than expected applied for the role of “Arrogance,” so it was decided that it would be no problem to add another person.
Moon Jongchul wants to give the highest score among the “Actress 5 Room” profiles.
Moon Jongchul, who knows Ha Sarang, is an actor who likes to discipline his juniors.
To put it simply, he is an old man. His usual performance was also “Gangster Boss”.
“Moon Jongchul passed.”
Ha Sarang, who was checking the five-room profile, looked at the four-room profile this time.
I wasn’t expecting him.
Among the applicants for the fourth room was a “quite” great actor even by her standards.
***
A few days later, the long-awaited text arrived.
——
Hello, I’m Sasa and PD of <The Way They Chose>, who received the contact information from producer Na Jinho.
Since the schedule is a little tight, it would be good if you could audition as soon as possible.
I’m sending you the contact information of our staff, so please ask here.
——
There was a lot of talk, but the important thing is that I want to audition as soon as possible.
“It’s better.”
Just debuting, my face and name are starting to be known to people.
So now is the time to run. There was no time to rest. I’ve been resting for a few weeks and my body has become very fierce.
I immediately made a schedule and went to the audition. This audition is held at the headquarters of Studio Redcat.
When I arrived near the headquarters, I saw some people who seemed to have come to audition.
-??????????????????????????? * Bread!
-Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
Bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb!!!!
—- Just go.
Fat vans like “celebrity cars”, always seen near the station, were fighting each other’s nerves.
I don’t know if the actor inside ordered it or if the road manager did it voluntarily to show loyalty.
But because of this war of nerves, actors like me seemed to be more nervous.
They didn’t even care.
When I entered the first floor of the Red Cat studio, it was even more crowded.
I was proud that I had been to most of the auditions, but this was the first time it had been so crowded.
“I’ll have to check to see if I get in first.”
It was then.
“Kang Jinseok?”
When I looked back at the voice calling me, there was a man standing there with a ‘STAFF’ necklace.
“Oh yes, who?”
“It’s the staff member I used to communicate with by text message!”
“Oh! Hello!”
“Yes, yes! What are you doing here?”
When asked by the staff, I asked as if I was curious.
“What? I was waiting in line to check my participation in the audition. “Isn’t this the place?”
When I spoke bluntly, the staff member said with an apologetic face.
“Didn’t I contact you?” “You can come up to the 26th floor right now for the audition for the supporting role.
“Yeah, I didn’t hear a thing.”
“I’m so sorry. You almost missed the audition.”
“No, it’s not that. Can I go up now?”
“I’m so sorry. Please follow me first.”
I took the elevator to the residential area.
“Isn’t that Nakamura?”
“It’s Kang Jinseok.”
“Are you auditioning for this drama?”
There was a slight buzz around me as if someone recognized me. As the attention was drawn to me, my footsteps towards the elevator quickened without me noticing.
***
“This is the waiting room. There are other actors in there, so when it’s your turn, I’ll call you.”
“Oh, yes. Thank you.”
“Yes, then I’ll go.” Good luck with your audition.”
There was a lot of activity somewhere, and I went into the waiting room.
I see long tables and neatly arranged office chairs. So far, it’s a normal audition waiting room that I’ve seen many times before.
However, the “level” was different from the auditions I’ve seen before.
There were many actors who seemed to have appeared on TV at least once, and most importantly, they all seemed confident.
I wasn’t very nervous before entering the waiting room, but when I saw them, I suddenly became nervous.
Let’s go to the bathroom first.
I felt a little less nervous when I came out after doing my business. I was still a little excited.
“You’re Kang Jinseok, right?” “In Spring Without Flowers” as Nakamura.
Then I heard a middle-aged man’s voice from behind me.
When I turned around, I saw three men.
“Is this person… Moon Jongchul?”
He is a middle-aged actor who appears not only in historical dramas but also in dramas set in modern times.
After that, Lee Homin, who had long forgotten in his memory, smiled wickedly at what was so interesting. I think I saw the other person somewhere, but I can’t remember.
In addition to Lee Homin, Moon Jongchul. Jinseok bowed deeply because he was a senior.
“Hello, I’m Kang Jinseok!”
But even though I said hello, Moon Jongchul glared at me with his eyebrows.
“I heard you used to be very mad at Lee Homin. “Are you managing your image because you are more famous these days?”
It’s Lee Homin again.
In my short career, I’ve already come across this twice. You can’t do this without having a bad relationship with someone.
“What should I do?
If the other person was Lee Homin, he would have played moderately as before.
But the opponent is not Lee Homin, but a senior named Moon Jongchul.
In terms of age and career, I’m not the type of person to treat carelessly.
“Why don’t you answer? I’m just asking.”
“—.”
“Or are you ignoring me too?”
Moon Jongchul seemed to be quite close to Lee Homin. So it was clear that no matter what I was going to say, I wouldn’t be heard.
There is nothing I can do about it.
At the time when I wanted to bow down and apologize, there was no other way.
“Hey, Moon Jongchul. “Why are you defending your girlfriend and scolding Jinseok unnecessarily?”
I heard a familiar voice behind me, full of mischief and years.
I slowly looked back and there it was.
“Hey, Jinseok. “Are you here for an audition?”
Min Kyungsoo waved his hands happily.
TN: GF? HAHAHA IDK LEE HOMIN X MOON JONGCHUL
