“Ah, what do you say to Jin Yu-han? Caddy Yoon does this. Isn’t that the role originally played by the casting director?”

“Yeah? I’m the captain of this ship, and the director is calling.”

Caddy Yoon refused like a knife when director Lee gave a bomb to the casting director with a mischievous smile.

“I’ll have to do it myself. Eheh. Even if I’m full of casting clothes, I’m going to go away.”

Yeon-woo, who left the station with Min-su, left the story of casting negotiations to Team Leader Jeong.

Minsu opened his mouth in the car on the way back to the officetel.

“Actress, I get so excited every time this happens.”

“Audition?”

At the red light that just turned on, he gently stepped on the brake to stop the car, and Minsu smiled as he looked behind him.

“Actually, I didn’t see the actors’ performances, but I was looking at the faces of the directors, right?”

Minsu moved his gaze to the front again and continued.

“By the way, it was a look that didn’t have much expectations at first.”

“It seems that the actor Jin Yu-han in front did a good job.”

Minsu nodded at Yeonwoo’s words.

“That’s right. I’d like to see the actor’s acting, but it felt like he had already made up his mind. But the more the actor acted, the more his expression changed, and then the heart started coming out of his eyes, right?”

Min-soo, who looks more excited today, slowly raised Yeon-woo’s lips.

On the other hand, in Jin Yu-han’s car on the way home from the audition.

Han Young-ho’s smartphone rang.

“Oh, yes. Director.”

Director Han Young-ho answers the phone with a bright face. But soon his face was wrinkled.

“Yes? Oh, right. Hmm, there’s nothing I can do about it. It’s not something the director should be sorry about.”

When I heard the phone call, Jin Yu-han lowered his eye mask and looked at Han Young-ho as it was an unexpected flow.

“Yes, yes. See you later.”

After hanging up the phone, Manager Han Young-ho’s expression became ferocious.

“No, it’s a nonsense story. The image that suits the role is closer to that one, and it doesn’t matter if she has eyes or not. How can she endure seeing Yuhan’s Seohee?”

“Do you think the image fits actor Ryu Yeon-woo more?”

Jin Yuhan’s voice is calmer than expected.

“That’s right. I can’t understand it. It’s like a later KBC historical drama, so you don’t know the trend at all.”

“I thought that I had prepared for sure, but it seems that actor Ryu Yeon-woo is doing very well.”

Jin Yu-han’s face was more interested than hurting his pride.

“I’m sorry, manager, but could you call Director Lee again?”

“Why? Yuhan-ah, bear with it even if it’s ridiculous. There’s nothing good about pretending to be a PD at a broadcasting station.”

Jin Yu-han smiles at the words of Director Han Young-ho.

“Where am I? I was judged by the audition fairly.”

Han Young-ho, the head of the department, walks over the phone with a confused expression.

Jin Yu-han spoke to Han Young-ho while the phone was handed over and the ringing tone sounded.

“Is the only clause I asked for when signing the contract valid?”

A clause that the actor chooses the work he wants, unless it is a low-budget independent film or a role that has a serious image damage to the company.

“Yeah, that’s right. But it sounds like you’ve made up your mind to Ryu Yeon-woo?”

Then the connected call.

– Yes, Chief Han.

“Director, I’m Jin Yu-han.”

***

After hanging up the call and entering the conference room with the staff for a meeting, the phone call from Manager Han Young-ho comes back.

Manager Lee Sang-hoon tilted his head and gestured for the team members to wait for a while.

“Yes, Chief Han.”

– Director, this is Jin Yu-han.

“Ah, Jin Yu-han.”

-I heard that actor Ryu Yeon-woo has been cast for the role of Seo-hee.

Director Lee Sang-hoon’s face changed as if he had chewed shit.

Are you trying to protest the casting? It was a fair audition, but since I was young, I had no sense of reality.

“Yes, but?”

It is director Lee Sang-hoon, who has already guessed and already has a blunt voice.

However, the unexpected story of Jin Yu-han is heard.

– Then I would like to participate in the role of ‘Eiji-baek’, is it possible?

Director Lee Sang-hoon’s eyes widened.

“Yes? The role of Lee Ji-baek is a supporting role. Of course, it is a big part, but it’s different from the sub male lead in the loco-mul.”

– it’s okay. I really want to participate in this work.

“The role of Ji-baek Lee has a scene in the play where he is dispatched as an envoy to the Song Dynasty, so I’m going to start filming overseas.”

Then, without hesitation, Jin Yu-han answered immediately.

– yes. of course.

Director Lee Sang-hoon caught on to an unexpected suggestion.

“Oh my gosh, then we seem to have won thousands and thousands of horses. It’s so good.”

– Then, please talk with the company about the detailed appearance negotiation. I wish you all the best during filming in the future.”

The phone call was hung up as they greeted each other again and again.

As I entered the conference room where the director and key staff were gathered, my mouth caught in my ears and I shouted.

“In our work, Jin Yu-han participated in the role of Lee Ji-baek.”

The staff are surprised by the sudden sound.

“Yes? In the role of Lee Ji-baek? Jin Yu-han?”

“Wow, our male lead is Ryu Yeon-woo, and our sub male is Jin Yu-han? That’s great.”

“Uh, that’s good, but then, even if Jinyu’s side takes good care of the guarantee negotiations, I think the female protagonist’s budget will be tight?”

It is a historical drama that is difficult to include PPL, and the production cost was close due to location shooting and CG work in the second half.

“Ah, that’s fine. It’s either getting more investment or getting more budget from the broadcasting station. Don’t worry about that, let’s find an actress with a good image.”

The director, who suddenly got both of the hottest young male actors these days, started the meeting with a bright face.

“What does Yeo Min-seo say?”

“It’s hard to go on a different schedule right now.”

Director Lee Sang-hoon searches for an actress while flipping through files.

“Then what do you recommend?”

“I… how about Seo Ji-eun?”

His eyes focused on the words of the assistant writer who was sitting at the end.

“Seo Ji-eun? You appeared as that high school student?”

She is an actress who went downhill after a drug problem broke out in a mini-series that appeared a few years ago as a high school youth drama and then starred for the first time after that, and the main actors got off.

“Yes, I think it would have worked out well if it hadn’t been for that Han Jun-kyung’s drug problem. I always thought that I would go well with Seo Ji-eun while watching Ryu Yeon-woo.”

In fact, assistant writer Yena Jeong is a member of Woods. When I heard that Ryu Yeon-woo could be cast, I was so happy.

Jeong Ye-na, who joined the team as writer Jin-joo Kim took on this work, played virtual casting countless times in her head.

Among them, the best combination is Ryu Yeon-woo and Seo Ji-eun.

I never imagined that Jin Yu-han would make it, but Jeong Ye-na thinks that if the three are put together, it will be perfect.

“Hmm, maybe it’ll be okay? Let’s find out.”

A director who continues to speak while flipping through the files.

“Ah, speaking of things, let’s check the actors’ drug problems carefully in case you don’t know while casting. Strangely, drug problems keep popping up in the entertainment industry these days.”

“yes.”

At that time, Ryu Yeon-woo in the car returning to the officetel is also looking at the smartphone in real time.

– Breaking news. Ahn Jun-ho was arrested on drug charges and confirmed under investigation.

– Shock. Even Jun-ho Ahn in a drug case in the entertainment industry.

‘Ahn Jun-ho drugs?’

Breaking news in real time.

Ahn Jun-ho is an actor who worked together as Hwang Jae-il in Summer’s Wardrobe.

“You didn’t think you were going to do drugs, did you?”

He had a cheerful personality and never smoked, let alone drugs.

Minsu, who was driving after hearing Yeonwoo’s words, asked.

“Who is it? If it’s a drug, is it a drug?”

“Yes. There is an article about Junho hyung taking drugs.”

“If it’s Junho hyung, are you talking about actor Ahn Junho?”

“Yes. We filmed together in the summer wardrobe.”

Min-soo is surprised by the unexpected words.

“I didn’t look like that kind of person…?”

At that time, Yeonwoo’s smartphone rang, and when I checked the screen, it was Jinwook Son.

“Yes. Jinwook hyung.”

– It’s Yeonwoo. did you hear the news?

“Junho hyung?”

– yes. What’s happening? Junho is suddenly on drugs. I haven’t met in person since I changed my agency last time. It’s shocking.”

Yeon-woo listened to Jin-wook’s sigh through the receiver and continued speaking.

“I used to be close with Jinwook hyung.”

– yes. That guy made his debut as a minor in ‘Your Name’.

“Have you recently changed your agency?”

The answer to Yeonwoo’s question came back with a sigh.

– Originally, it was the same agency as me, but when we signed with LN Entertainment, he moved because of the renewal period. I think it was a plus.

“Are you the CEO of Plus 10, Byun Hak-gyu?”

When Yeon-woo heard the name of the agency from Jin-wook, the name immediately came to mind.

– Well, I don’t even know the name of the representative of the agency?

definitely sure The representative who induced Su-yeon to spawn.

“Jinwook hyung. I have a place to call for a while, so I think I should hang up.”

– Ahh. okay. let’s keep in touch.

As soon as I hung up, Ryu Yeon-woo called Jung Soo-yeon.

Jung Soo-yeon answers the phone shortly after the connection tone rings.

– yes. it’s yeonwoo I was still trying to call.

“Huh? You were trying to call me?”

Suyeon said with a happy voice to Yeonwoo’s question.

– yes. Suddenly, the agency notified me that they were going to terminate the contract! Originally, he threatened that he would not be active for the rest of the period.

“Ah, that’s right. Congratulations. Suyeon-ah. Did you miss an hour?”

– really. I feel like the shackles holding me back have been lifted.

I hung up the phone after only small chatter because Suyeon spoke first about what I was going to ask.

‘Something is definitely wrong with this.’

Meanwhile, Min-soo’s car arrived at the officetel.

Min-su calls to Yeon-woo, who is still thinking even after the car arrives and stops.

“The actor has arrived.”

“Oh, that’s right. You worked hard. Minsu-hyung.”

“Hey, actor. Don’t be so heartbroken.”

It seems that Yeon-woo’s troubled appearance seemed to be very heartbreaking to Min-su.

Yeon-woo smiled and said he knew.

Yeon-woo, who came to the officetel after greeting Min-su, began to search for drug cases on the computer.

Apart from the Junho Ahn case, it seems that drug cases are happening frequently in the entertainment industry these days.

At a dinner party, I heard that Cha Woo-joo was originally assigned the role of an idol-turned-actor named Jung Min-ho if there had been no drug incidents in “Summer Wardrobe”, where he debuted in the first place.

Celebrities, drugs, and sponsors.

Yeonwoo’s senses keep getting a sense of something bad.

When I was an agent, when I felt this way, things were going in the wrong direction.

It feels like something is being caught, but one puzzle piece is missing in the middle.

Jiying-.

At that moment, Yeonwoo’s smartphone rang.

When I checked the caller number, it was a number I knew, although it was not stored on purpose for security.

Haneun’s smartphone number.

I decided to have a conversation with Haneun using a secure application, but calling means something bad or urgent.

Yeonwoo answered the phone.

“This is Ryu Yeon-woo.”
