Chapter 111 (2/2)
”The washroom?”
”That's where the director became fixated on him”
CEO Kim Pansuk looked as dazed as I was
Just what did Nam Joyoon and the director do in the washroohts becaht about it, I shook my head I should ask Nam Joyoon when I leave
”To be honest, as long as he wasn't terrible, ere planning on casting him in a , but…”
CEO Ki
”I think I ht have to thank you this time as well”
”Thank you for looking at us favorably”
”Well, you aren't the type to bring along weird actors You said he wasn't under W&U?”
”Yes, I a him”
CEO Kie look
”I recalled how you brought Ms Songha for an audition a few ha then, yet who could have known she would be so successful in a few months?”
I didn't say anything and srinned as he said,
”I hope that I can say this again About how anyone could have known Mr Nam Joyoon would be so successful”
”The press release has been sent, right?”
”Yes, we sent it out and so did Well-Made Production As soon as the broadcast starts, articles about Ms Songha's next project will pop up like crazy”
The female employee of the PR Team replied to Kim Hyunjo's question
The closer it caathered in front of the TV in the lounge The Neptunein the basement, sat in the middle, and the new recruit, Kim Hyunjo, the PR Team employees and I sat around them
damn it I wanted to see this broadcast quietly in my home
”What is it? Is so on today?”
”'Fro”
”Ah, the one that appeared on the news? It's today?”
Other eht think the World Cup was on
The problem was that it probably wasn't only my co with my parents in front of their TV as well, and the quadruplets probably brought their school friends over to watch at my brother's place
Even the internet was bustling Talks about the incident died doith ti mentioned on social media and community sites
How did they edit it? I hoped it was edited with Neptune as the focus
Even now, my face burned so lasses Sometimes, it reached a point where I was confused whether I was a er or a TV personality I truly didn't need more attention than this
”Quiet, it's starting”
When Teaesture, everyone quieted down While fixing aze on the TV screen, I inwardly desperately hoped that my face didn't appear often
God damn it
”Oh s!”
”Wow, Mr Sunwoo's names on all the headlines of spam articles”
The PR Tea I didn't really want to hear
The Neptune girls were losing their athered around us kept alternating between the screen and ot chills!' I lost count how many time 'chills' popped up in the captions
”Wow, look at the goosebu? How can you be like that?”
”I don't see anything That's an entertainment show”
”Which draha's next project?”
”… Royal Family”
”They are probably still auditioning supporting roles, right? I ht tell my actor about it”
I felt like I would go crazy For real
The shoas edited to h my extreht up how I said Neptune would get first place on a music broadcast and how the dra it see to me
How could I go outside from now on? My future looked bleak
Sighing, I looked at the netbook onfro sites We spread a press release as bait for today's broadcast to break the news of Lee Songha's next project at the same time
But the headline of the main internet article was quite the spectacle
{Lee Songha's Next Project 'Royal Fa Sunwoo{1} This Time As Well?}
-What Midas's Hand? The y
-It's understandable if you're watching Fro
-What 'chiiiilling' Watch entertainment shows for entertainment, don't take them so seriously
-But seriously, when you think about how things started going well for Neptune ever since Manager Jung Sunas assigned to them, it doesn't seem like just an entertainment show Next K, Cat Guardian Ghost, Lee Taehee's title track, they're all successes Both entertainment shows he appeared on are hits At this point, it's true his senses are a
-da up the luck for the rest of his life? Buy a lottery ticket, man!
-It's not just that everything goes well, there are ru out projects that will fail!
-Just keep the first part Any more, and he must be possessed by a God
-If Royal Fae he possesses Midas's hand
I closed theafter reading a few coha's next project, but there werewould it take for this to quiet down? No, would it even quiet down?
Just as I sighed, the cla noises suddenly became distant
My vision went dark
The moment I saw the noisy static, my heart tensed
It was the future The future I had been longing for while pondering over sleepless nights
What was this? Was it a future about the new dra, this was most likely
I quickly exalass in front of me
I was at a bar
It seemed I already had a few drinks as a bitter taste swirled indown, all I could see was the wood patterned table, half-empty bottle of soju, and what looked like fried chicken
I focusedthat could be a hint
”How can a person always succeed? There'll be times when you fail”
I heard a voice that see to cheer me from across the table It was a woman's voice, but as it? I couldn't tell who it was because her voice was mixed with static Just as I hoped she would speak a few more words, she said,
”It's not like Royal Family flopped because of you anyways”
