This Life From a Child Actor (780)
Suhyun, who was moving to order a cake, turned her head when she heard a voice calling me.
Yeong-hye, who was dressed extravagantly again today, was waving happily.
“Junior Kang.”
“Senior Go.”
Su-hyeon expressed his joy after meeting Yeong-hye in an unexpected place.
As I was preparing for the Changryong Awards Ceremony and learning various things, the woman I met seemed even more amazing.
“Congratulations to Kang Junior for ‘Hyuk’ surpassing 6 million views? I watched it too and it was really fun. “Isn’t this going to make you 10 million?”
“thank you.”
“Still, I’m glad. The reason the candidates are called out at the awards ceremony is because they were the previous year’s winners. There is nothing more embarrassing than hearing your own name called. Of course, those are all memories.”
“I’d like to try it at least once.”
“If you film a movie one year, you work on a drama or foreign work the next year. Still, if it’s junior Kang, it would be possible for him to become the previous year’s winner and have my name called next year, right? Hehehe.”
“Haha, you give me so much credit.”
The two people exchanged laughter while talking about Suhyun’s upcoming film and the awards ceremony.
When the atmosphere became moderately unpleasant, Yeong-hye glanced behind him with narrowed eyes.
Suddenly, a mischievous smile appeared on her lips.
“I came here to drink coffee and chat with my friends, but what about junior Kang? “The interior here is a bit uncomfortable for a man to come alone.”
“iced coffee. I have an appointment with a friend I know. “I heard the cakes here are delicious and the partitions are well done.”
Even though Soo-hyeon noticed that he was saying it was a date, he calmly stated the truth.
It is true that Ye-seo and he are a man and a woman, but they did not meet in the sense she said.
This misunderstanding was also rude to Ye-seo, who gave appropriate advice.
“That’s right, the cake here is really delicious. Oh, have you tried sweet persimmon mousse? If you haven’t tried it, try it. “It’s only made during this time, but it’s really delicious?”
“is it so? “I guess I should try one.”
In response to Soo-hyeon’s simple denial, Yeong-hye did not inquire further and recommended the cafe menu.
Since they both had their own company, the chance meeting at the counter ended quickly.
“Then have a good time.”
“I’ll see you too at the next meeting.”
Suhyeon filled the tray with cake and returned to the table where Ye-seo was.
Ye-seo, who was waiting while drinking coffee, smiled brightly when she saw Su-hyeon.
“Oppa, are you here? Oh, the cake is so pretty.”
“Seasonal sweet persimmon Musrae.”
“It looks like a real sweet persimmon. cute. Oh brother. It looks like you’re talking to someone. Did you meet anyone you know? Or a fan?”
Ye-seo, impressed by the cake, eagerly took pictures and asked in passing who Su-hyeon was talking to.
Since it wasn’t something to hide, Su-hyeon obediently said Yeong-hye’s name.
“Ah, I ran into senior Ko Young-hye by chance. “The world is such a small place.”
“uh? Did you meet senior Yeonghye? “If I had known, I would have said hello.”
“No, that would only lead to more misunderstandings.”
Su-hyeon shook her head, lightly mentioning the question Yeong-hye had asked.
I asked if he had come with his girlfriend, and it was perfect to be mistaken when Ye-seo showed up there.
‘If I had to recite every single fact there, it would have seemed like an excuse… That’s not the kind of relationship I have with Ye-seo.’
Su-hyeon recalled the conversation with Yeong-hye once again and looked at Ye-seo, who was tasting the cake with a happy face.
Differences in gender, intimate relationships in private, and even an appropriate age difference of two years…
If you think about it, their meeting was not enough to cause misunderstanding.
‘…But I don’t want to distance myself from Yeseo because of the issue of being seen as a man or a woman.’
Su-hyeon was lost in thought while staring at Ye-seo, who was savoring each bite of cake.
Apart from his network, his personal relationships were very narrow.
The people I could confidently call acquaintances or friends were probably in their twenties or older, and even fewer of them were in the entertainment industry.
Among them, Ye-seo was the only colleague of his age who had worked with him ever since he was a child.
‘It’s possible that I’m not very sociable, but when I was young, my body and mind were especially out of sync… Yeseo used to be just a happy kid, but at some point, he became a dependable colleague. ‘Kids grow up so fast.’
Su-hyeon looked at Ye-seo with a slightly wistful and proud look.
Ye-seo, who had been concentrating on the cake for a while, probably felt his gaze and looked up.
“What is it, brother? “Those eyes.”
“Our Yeseo. “When did you get this big?”
“I’m twenty-five now. “He’s all grown up.”
Ye-seo burst into laughter as he said all sorts of things.
The clear sound of laughter instantly dispelled Suhyun’s worries.
‘okay. All we have to do is be honest.’
Even if it is between a man and a woman, it can be a simple relationship.
Su-hyeon, who had neatly put aside her worries, picked up a fork.
He was also curious about the taste of the cake at this famous cafe.
“I had a nice time today. “I will enjoy your gift.”
“I had fun too.”
The two people, who enjoyed the sweet combination of cake and coffee with appropriate conversation, stood up with their empty plates.
We wanted to talk more, but we both had our next plans in mind.
“Ah, junior Kang. See you again.”
As Su-hyeon was about to put the tray on the counter, he ran into Yeong-hye once again, who happened to be coming down from upstairs.
Su-hyeon felt a little troubled because of the conversation he had with her before they parted ways.
“Senior Yeonghye!”
“Oh my god, who is this? Isn’t it yeseo? “Was Ye-seo the friend that Kang junior was meeting?”
While he was lost in worry, Ye-seo, who was standing next to him, took a step forward and greeted Yeong-hye.
Perhaps because they were close friends, Yeong-hye expressed her joy by calling Ye-seo comfortably.
“Yes, senior, I was abroad for a while because I had a photo shoot. “I was upset that I couldn’t go to Soohyun’s premiere, so I made an appointment to see him for a moment today.”
“okay…? After all, people need refreshment.”
Yeong-hye stared at Ye-seo, who smiled brightly, with narrowed eyes, as if assessing something.
And soon he burst into laughter.
“I think I caught too many people. “I thought you were Ssukmaek who only worked for Kang’s junior, but you had a plan?”
“yes?”
“don’t worry. Because I have a heavy mouth. Well then, see you at the next meeting. “Goodbye to you too.”
Yeong-hye, who tapped Su-hyeon with her elbow, passed the two of them and headed to the counter, leaving only an ambiguous comment.
Su-hyeon stroked the back of her neck as she watched Yeong-hye quickly finish her work and go upstairs again.
It seemed like there was a misunderstanding.
“Yes, let’s go.”
“uh? Uh oh. huh.”
Su-hyeon clicked his tongue once, gave up his regrets and called Ye-seo.
After a pleasant meeting, a slight misunderstanding arose, but it was okay to resolve the misunderstanding later.
* * *
After meeting Ye-seo, Su-hyeon took her advice seriously and looked at several advertisements.
There were countless companies and brands that wanted to work with him, so all he had to do was choose the conditions he wanted.
‘It’s convenient if you’re popular. ‘Because I can almost immediately choose a job with the conditions I want.’
Even things you once rejected can be reversed and accepted.
Such was the power of being ranked 0 in casting.
‘Of course, if that happens, other people who are half-confirmed will suffer, so I don’t do that.’
Suhyun thought for a while as she looked at the products and brands in front of her.
Most of the photoshoots were done in indoor studios and took several hours of work without prior preparation or meetings.
Among them, clothing was the most common, followed by cosmetics, perfume and other feminine products.
‘Why on earth would a man want a nail ad?… Sometimes I don’t understand the world of advertising.’
I understand that they use models of the opposite sex since the customer base is female, but I don’t know if that reveals the appeal of the product.
Su-hyeon shook her head and took out the advertisement she didn’t like and stared at the remaining options.
A luxury brand’s clothing advertisement watch hamburger remained.
‘The hamburger advertisement includes a video, but it’s not bad because it’s a new product.’
Su-hyeon, who was muttering lame excuses to herself, looked at each option one by one.
In the case of clothing, since it was a brand advertisement, I had to wear several outfits that would be shown in the next season.
However, there were few major problems and the work was completed within a few hours at most.
As for the watch, there was only one pictorial that highlighted the watch as a promotion for a new product released this time.
We’ll be shooting in a variety of moods, but once we get the A cut, we can finish it quickly.
‘For hamburgers, all you have to do is say the lines according to the script sent in advance.’
A stomach-stimulating hamburger making scene will be included earlier, but what Soohyun will do is ‘a fantastic combination of fried squid and special sauce.’ All I can do is eat a hamburger and smile along with the line, ‘Would you like a bite?’
Since it was a simple task, Suhyeon thought hard about it.
It wasn’t an easy choice.
‘Actually… I’m a little tempted by hamburgers mentally. ‘I’m worried that I might get the image of being too gluttonous.’
Even though it is already well known among fans that he is a big eater and likes chocolate, it is too early to mutter, ‘It would be easier to give up.’
The love calls from food entertainment have calmed down a bit, but I am hesitant to add fuel to the fire again.
‘Furthermore, when filming a hamburger commercial, you have to eat only hamburgers from this brand until the advertisement is exposed, which is not an easy task.’
Even though it was a moral issue, being an entertainer was a profession that was scrutinized down to its moral aspects.
It would be hard to hear good things about someone if they were caught eating a competitor’s hamburger while the commercial was in full swing, and Su-hyeon didn’t want to be that stressed.
‘It’s the same thing as secretly eating a hamburger or deliberately ordering it and eating it at home. Even if you eat that way, there are always people who will figure out how to make news about it.’
In the end, with a strong mind and cool-headed reason, Su-hyeon stopped the hamburger commercial that she had been longing for.
The filming and release times for the remaining two advertisements did not overlap, so there was no problem in running them together.
“Niao nya.”
“huh. Were you bored playing alone? Let’s sit on brother’s lap. “That’s right.”
After making his decision, Su-hyeon leaned back on the sofa, and the raccoon that had been baking bread in the cat tower came down and meowed at his feet.
Soo-hyeon tapped her thigh a couple of times, and the raccoon jumped gracefully and landed on his thigh.
“Are you having a good time?”
“Why?”
“Do you like it when I scratch you here? Oguogu… Did you miss my raccoon oppa?”
Su-hyeon smiled with a sad expression as she looked at the raccoon rubbing its fur on her clothes.
When I received this kind of cuteness, my fatigue went away in an instant.
‘This is animal therapy… It’s so good to cuddle around, it’s really good…’
Even if you have a lot of work to do, if you have a raccoon to welcome you at home, you are invincible.
Su-hyeon, who was melting for a while because of the raccoon’s cuteness, suddenly remembered something she had forgotten.
He thought about it for a while and eventually took his hand off the raccoon’s fur and picked up his smartphone.
‘It’s not what I promised…’
Still, there’s nothing to lose by meeting him.
As Suhyun hesitated and waited for the call to be connected, the regular beeping sound finally stopped.
“hello?”
―Oh, Su-hyeon! Wow, I never thought you would contact me first!
“how have you been doing?”
-I’m doing well! Oh, I heard the movie is doing well! congratulations!
“Oh, thank you.”
When the call was made, the woman on the other end of the phone cheerfully welcomed Suhyeon.
After responding to her lively voice several times, he finally got to the point.
“I want to meet you… do you have time?”
