Chapter 36 (2/2)

“Well… okay Still, you never know, so Songha, you read other synopses as well”

Kiue

“But, that CEO of Pan Production is quite frustrating”

“Sorry?”

Frustrating?

“You said this is his first project after beco all his connections for this, but ould he take the risk with a neriter? It would be safer if he used an experienced one”

Now that I thought about it, I was curious as well

I knew that Writer Hong Ju, but hat confidence did CEO Kim Pansuk decide to use a neriter for their first project that would decide the future of their production?

“People are probably saying I’ht?”

He was the CEO of Pan Production Kiure squeezed into a s, as sitting in front of hilasses and glanced at him

CEO Ki uneasily

“No, still, just wait until the first episode is released When they see it, I know they’ll be like, ‘Ah, so that’s why Kiht a neriter in for this critical tihtest There’s no reason to be Since I believe in Writer Hong Jumi’s skills”

“CEO, if you’re not uneasy, then please stop shaking your leg My notebook is shaking”

“What?”

When CEO Kiure, widened his eyes and stared at her Park Sookyung stealthily avoided his gaze

CEO Kiroaned as he said

“If this fails, I’m screwed I used all my personal connections on this project If this fails, I don’t have a second chance It’ll be good, right? The screenplay is good, and even though shi+n Taekyun, that bastard, looks a little fliht?”

“Why are you asking me…”

“For someone who’s the production producer, you don’t have confidence in your project? Worrying is so I, who pays the salaries, do, and you should be working with the certainty that it’ll be good!”

“Yes This project will be really good It will be a hit”

“A hit? We can’t even cast our leading roles!”

That moment, they heard a knock, and two people came in

Writer Hong Jumi, who looked to be about half the size of CEO Kim Pansuk, and Director shi+n Taekyun, a man with messy hair like a bird’s nest who looked to be in his thirties

“hello, senior[2]”

“CEO… we’re here”

“Ah, Director shi+n Writer Hong Welcome”

CEO Kis and said cal Juers

“Umm… I heard some loud noises from outside, is there a problem?”

“What? The screenplay is great; what proble, you don’t need to worry at all, just trust ood screenplays from now on Screenplays Is the next episode done?”

“Yes The first draft is done, and I was revising it together with the director”

“While the screenplays are fine; the problem is the cast”

Director shi+n scratched his head

“They are creating a fuss up there, tellingback, we ht”

At his words, the expressions of the people gathered in the rew dark

Park Sookyung let out a sigh and said

“All because Lih…”

“Haa, what can we do when he’s hurt? We were rejected by Ki and Park Hyemin There are so many actors in Korea, but are there none ill be our lead? We need to quickly find a lead so we can cast our supporting roles as well… Should er our standards a little?”

Director shi+n shook his head at CEO Kim Pansuk’s words

“The project fro at the sa”

“What? That Big Bear Production or so?!”

“Yes Because of that, the guys up there are telling us to cast so’s level Even if they leave the projects from the three public TV networks out of the discussion, they said they didn’t want to fall behind GTBN, their competitor”

“Kiuy, said he wouldn’t do cable draet him?”

“40 million won[3] per episode They said they’d pay in advance once he signed the contract”

“40 million per episode and it’s a 20-episode project… that’s 800 ht away? They have that much money?”

“They probably calculated overseas selling rights and other stuff and thought that giving him 800 million in advance was still worth it since he quite well received in China”

“Argh…”

Kirab his forehead when he becahed

“It’s okay Our screenplay is good!”

“They say the other side’s screenplay is good as well”

Park Sookyung mumbled

While the at and heavy, the door opened, accompanied by a knock

“Umm, CEO”

The youngest producer of Pan Production’s production depart in

“What?”

“We received a call”

“We’re in the … Haa, where is it from?”

“W&U”

CEO Kim Pansuk paused

“W&U?”

“Yes”

“The one with CEO Baek Hansung? That W&U with Sung Dowon, Park Sohyun, and Son Chaeyoung?”

“Uhh, yes I think that is the one”

CEO Kim Pansuk kicked his chair as he abruptly stood up

[1] I read this in a Korean news article, but apparent soanization, production and direction roles, which is probably why Producer shi+n Taekyun is the drama’s director
