”I saw your amazing acting.”

Manager Yoon Dae Sung told Woo Hyuk this in a dry tone. He wa a manager who worked for one of the top three agencies in the country. Although Woo Hyuk was good at acting, he was over 30 and he wa not famous. Therefore, he didn't want to flatter him too much. He thought Kang Woo Hyuk would be really excited for this moment.

But what's this?

”Thank you.”

Woo Hyuk's response was really unenthusiastic.

He definitely told him that he was a manager from WOW manager and he checked the business card too. But what was up with his response?

Whenever he gave his business card to actors or future celebrities, there would always be two types of responses.

”You're from WOW?!!” They would act surprised and try to get on his good side, while the other response would be, 'Are you a scammer?' and they would doubt him.

Woo Hyuk was neither. It was just a polite greeting like meeting a person for the first time — nothing special.

”It was my first time being scared seeing an action movie.”

Manager Yoon tried to b.u.t.ter up to him a bit.

It sounded like he was flattering him, but he was voicing his true feelings.

He thought that his acting was really good but his martial arts was also just as good as the stuntmen.

Woo Hyuk did the rehearsal as if he was actually filming.

His fighting actions weren't that smooth but wasn't that wild either. It definitely looked like he was doing his best. That's what he liked.

The stuntmen looked like mannequins who were good at moving around but he didn't see any emotions from them.

Kang Woo Hyuk was different. His gaze, expression, and actions were the best.

Manager Yoon saw all of those aesthetic qualities from him and himself in acting.

No matter how much a person is talented at acting, it's difficult for them to succeed without enthusiasm.

This actor will definitely be famous. I must catch him. Thankfully, it looks like no one knows that he's a really big fish.

Woo Hyuk received the compliment and nodded his head.

His action was very short but looked to be respectful and he didn't act as if he was being conceited.

Manager Yoon was about to say something but someone interrupted him.

”Yoo, Manager Yoon… how are you?”

It was Manager Jung.

I know his face, but we aren't that close for him to be greeting me out of nowhere. Didn't we greet each other in the morning? We just nodded at each other. That's enough for our relations.h.i.+p. Why is he greeting me again?

”Ah! Yes! How are you?”

Manager Yoon greeted Manager Jung with a blank expression.

Then he immediately turned his head to Woo Hyuk and kept on talking.

”Mr. Woo Hyuk, can you see me after you're done filming?”

Manager Jung couldn't stay still after hearing him.

He gave Min Hwan a look that told him that he needed help.

Min Hwan just shrugged his shoulders.

Manager Jung gave up on Min Hwan and just said something Woo Hyuk.

”Uh, Mr. Woo Hyuk! Please drink this.”

He slightly pushed away Manager Yoon's shoulder and handed the vitamin drink to Woo Hyuk.

See this move, Min Hwan's eyes widened in surprise.

To think Manager Jung would act in such a mannerless way. He pushed him aside like a rugby player.

He was seeing many new sides of Manager Jung.

This more fun than expected. No matter what kind of fight it was it was more fun when there was physical contact. A fight with only words was deafening to the ears.

Manager Yoon ferociously glared at Manager Jung who pushed his shoulder away.

At first he thought that Manager Jung had just made a mistake, but thinking about how he was standing right now, he realized that it was on purpose.

No matter how you looked at it, the shoulder shove looked like an accident.

He could still hold it in if it was this much, but he could not stand seeing him talk to Kang Woo Hyuk.

His nickname was 'bulldozer'. He started the fight first with the shoulder shove. He could not live with this grievance.

Manager Yoon did the exact same thing to Manager Jung and pushed his shoulder.

”Aikooo!”

As Manager Jung was pushed aside, he tripped over the prop and fell down.

He was just trying to slightly push him but he may have overdid it on accident.

Min Hwan saw this situation and he ran over to Manager Jung.

Manager Yoon was perplexed and apologized to Manager Jung. He didn't want him to actually fall.

”I'm sorry. I lost my balance so I accidentally pushed you. Are you okay?”

Manager Yoon looked like naughty child who had done something wrong and his face made him look like he was embarra.s.sed.

”I'm alright.”

Manager Jung hid his unsightly face and accepted the apology.

He was the one who first pushed him so he couldn't say anything.

Min Hwan, who saw everything, couldn't help but laugh.

To think that two fully grown adults would act so childish.

He was worried that the shoulder fight might escalate into something big, but luckily nothing happened.

”Mr. Actor, what's your schedule today? Can we go grab a meal later today? I also have something I need to speak to you about.” Manager Yoon cut in while Manager Jung was brus.h.i.+ng off the dirt from his clothes.

Manager Jung was really famous for being a clean man, but he suddenly stopped cleaning himself and looked at Woo Hyuk.

Normally, when a new and upcoming actor received a proposal for a meal from a WOW manager, they'd usually be excited about that.

Yet Woo Hyuk's expression was neutral.

”I understand. Can I answer after I'm done filming?”

Woo Hyuk replied to Manager Yoon.

It was a happy and great thing to get a meal proposal from WOW's Manager Yoon, but right now he had to focus and finish strong for the film.

Woo Hyuk head was filled with nothing but the action scene.

Seeing Woo Hyuk's response, Manager Jung was really happy.

He was worried about whether or not Woo Hyuk would accept the meal proposal.

But Manager Yoon was a little perplexed but he accepted Woo Hyuk's response.

Is he in a bad mood?

No way!

Manager Yoon didn't want to be too forceful and wanted to apologize to him being a bit rash.

Manager Yoon saw that Woo Hyuk's face was completely focused on acting and he was thinking about improving his acting. Bothering him any further was not a manager's role.

”I understand. I'll wait until you're finished filming.”
