Chapter 59
“The actor is in the hotel right next door?”
Jang Sunho asked in a shaky voice. Oh Haneul replied with a slight smile.
“Yes, they’re having the end party of ‘Dreams of the Sun Rising’ and ‘Spring Without Flowers’ today.”
“Oh, yes, yes, yes.”
“Did you set up the appointment here because of this?”
The restaurant where I had dinner tonight is quite far from the company. If so, there must be a reason why I called you here.
Maybe Oh Haneul was convinced that Jang Sunho would accept his proposal.
“I’m slowly going down. The chief of staff will be waiting.”
“Oh, yes. I see.”
Jang Sunho followed Oh Haneul, who was walking with his back.

Hotel W manager, Kwon Moonchang.
He seemed to be distracted by the sudden call from his boss.
“I’m already busy because of the ending party. Even the CEO of OS International is coming?”
Kwon Moonchang’s stress index has already exceeded its limits.
Actors and journalists.
And the entertainment industry.
This is because they were controlling all the needs and complaints of those numerous people.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. It’s so hard. I can’t wait to get off work and have a beer. I must use my annual leave next week.’
I thought like this, but I didn’t see it on my face. This is because the level of facial expression management has been exceptional as I have been serving for a long time.
In addition, the head of OS Entertainment, which is about to meet, is VVIP at a hotel. There should be no mistake.
Then, a black car arrived at the hotel entrance, seemingly shouting “I’m rich!”
“It’s the car of the CEO of OS International.”
Without any doubt, Kwon Moonchang approached the car.
“···?”
But the person who got off was not bald.
“The representative of Oh Haneul that I know is bald.” “Isn’t it this person?”
Kwon Moonchang took a step or two back and looked around.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve been here, too. I used to come here sometimes because seolleongtang was delicious.”
“That’s right. It tasted good, but the portion was so small that I remember you always had two servings.”
“That’s right. Oh, Mr. Jang, you should try it later if you have a chance.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Two men in hiking gear and a man in a neat suit entered the hotel nonchalantly.
“What are they?”
You shouldn’t judge a person by their appearance, but this party is not a place where you can dress like that.
The person in the suit didn’t seem to have a problem, but the hiking clothes were too much.
Kwon Moonchang tried to restrain them, but he ate them up.
‘Hmm. The other staff will take care of it.’
And this wasn’t the time to care about such little things. Kwon Moonchang again turned to the hotel entrance.
“When is he coming?” The boss said he’d be there in five minutes.’
An urgent voice resonated with Kwon Moonchang’s radio, which had been hanging around for a long time.
[Manager]
“Uh, go ahead.”
[CEO Oh Haneul is here]
[He said he didn’t see the manager]
[They’re waiting to say hi to you]
[Weren’t you waiting at the entrance?]
“···· What?”
***
He didn’t just sign the contract, but he actually belonged to “OS Entertainment.”
“That doesn’t mean that something great happened.”
Still, the surroundings were the same.
Min Kyungsoo and Park Woohyun were arguing with each other, and Lee Narin was looking at the two as if they were pathetic.
Han Jehoon and Lee Hyunah still seemed to distance themselves. Still, thanks to Min Kyungsoo’s unique affinity, everyone seemed to have conversations to some extent.
“I think you all got closer than when you first saw each other.”
Meanwhile, the entrance to the party suddenly became noisy.
“Is something wrong?”
I peeped my head up to look at the entrance. Yoon Gayeon, who was next to me, said.
“The CEO of our company is here. With the chief of staff. Jinseok, the manager who will take care of you is also coming. . Oh, is that the manager?”
I was surprised by the word “representative” and surprised by the word “manager” once more. While I stood still, blinking my eyes, three men at the entrance approached.
“Hello, Mr. President.”
Yoon Gayeon greeted the man in front of her. Unlike the intense image of the ‘representative’ in my head, it is quite a warm impression.
“Yes, vice president. Thank you for coming first and working hard.”
“No, it’s not. Rather than that, I will introduce other actors first. This is Min Kyungsoo
When Lee Hyunah finished introducing, my turn came.
Yoon Gayeon pointed at me with her palm and said.
“Lastly, it’s Kang Jinseok. Jinseok, this is Oh Haneul, CEO of OS International.”
It was the first time I met a person named ‘CEO’, so I felt energized without realizing it.
“Hello, I’m Kang Jinseok!”
“Haha. Yes. Nice to meet you. It’s my first time seeing you in person.”
“What?”
“Oh, I mean I only watched it on TV. It’s no big deal.”
Oh Haneul called a man wearing a suit.
“Mr./Ms.··No. Manager. Come this way.”
“Yes.”
“That’s my manager.”
It’s 1.5 times bigger than the hotel’s security staff, and its beak eyes. a tall height that is likely to easily exceed 190 centimeters.
His face honestly looked a little scary, but he felt cool as a man, perhaps because of his sluggish body.
“You look really good with your hair in the back.”
That’s a hairstyle that’s not easy to pull off.
“I’m Jang Sunho. Starting today, I will be the manager of actor Kang Jinseok.”
“Oh, yes. It’s Kang Jinseok. I look forward to your kind cooperation.”
“Yes, I will do my best.”
At the end of the short greeting, the representative standing next to me said.
“Jang Sunho is one of the elites in our company’s secretariat. It’s my first time working as a celebrity manager, but I’m sure it’ll be a great help.”
The secretary’s office?
“Isn’t that an amazing place?”
It suddenly reminded me of the ‘secretary’ I saw in dramas and movies.
People simply handle various complex tasks by installing the basic installation of five languages, and there is nothing they can’t do.
If Jang Sunho in front of me is the ‘secretary’ I imagine, ···.
“Is he an all-around manager with great physical skills?”
“A, thank you. I’ll do my best, too.”
“Don’t overdo it. Just do it as it is now.”
After finishing his speech, the CEO turned back and said to the man who came with him.
“Then let’s go back, chief. This place is for young folks to play.”
“I see.”
“Do you want to eat rice soup?” I’m a little hungry.”
“I’ll have boiled pork and white rice.”
The two really disappeared like an arrow, having a friendly conversation.
When the representative and the chief of staff disappeared from sight, he gave me his business card and said.
“I think a new business card will probably come out tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, but I’ll give it to you first.”
“Oh, yes. I don’t have a business card, so…”
“The actor’s face is his business card. It’s all right.”
As soon as I received the business card, I sent a text message to him.
It was a short text saying, “I’m Kang Jinseok.”
Jang Sunho, who checked the text, nodded and said.
“Then I’ll be waiting outside. I would appreciate it if you could contact me if you need anything or when you return home.”
Jang Sunho bowed down while adjusting his clothes.
It was like a greeting from shoulder brothers that I saw in Lee Manseok’s memory.
“But manager.”
“What?”
“Have you eaten?” It’s time for you to eat
It’s just past 8 o’clock. I would have eaten it if I could but, I asked because I thought you might not have eaten yet if you came right from the company.
“I just ate. This is next to….”
The sound of “crook” was too loud to pretend not to know.
Jang Sunho continued to speak in a slightly trembling voice.
“···I ate with the CEO at the restaurant. I’m fine.”
I was a little embarrassed, but his voice trembled slightly.
When I first saw him, It felt scary, but when I saw it like this, I felt the humanity again.
“Then eat something with me. It’s hard to wait when you’re hungry.”
Jang Sunho nodded after looking around for a while.
“Then I’ll eat some and go.”
***
A week later.
After 2 p.m., Yang Chihoon’s studio in Ilsan, Gyeonggi-do.
Yang Chihoon, wearing a pink pajama and a yellow beanie, yawned loudly.
“Sigh.”
Next to it were empty energy drinks and coffee by type.
It was all proof that they had been working all night for several days.
He checked his work on a large monitor.
‘There’s no poster that’s 100% satisfactory.’
This included Jinseok’s poster.
‘But this poster is 200 percent satisfactory. It’s thrilling no matter how many times I look at it.’
Because Kang Jinseok’s poster was a “work” that was more than expected.
While Yang Chihoon was smiling and watching his work, his cell phone rang.
“Noona who is closer than love than friendship.”
It was Ha Sarang’s call.
“Hello…”
[Oh, CHI HOON!]! Are you still alive?]
“Yes, I’m not dead yet, ··. I was working on the second half of another poster. I have to do what I have to do and die.”
Ha Sarang laughed from beyond the cell phone as Yang Chihoon said. With the words “I’m not dead yet either, comrade!”
“Oh, that’s right. I was going to you ask a question, too.”
[What?]
“Can I post the picture I took this time on my Instagram?” Just use it as a poster. It’s such a waste to end it.”
[On your SNS?]? Of course, you can! [I’m actually calling to ask for that too!]
“···.”
[Just wait]. [I’ll check with the actors’ agency right now!]
I’m done.
Ha Sarang hung up after speaking in an excited voice.
Two hours later, Ha Sarang called again.
“Honey, are you there?”
[Yes!]! [I just called everyone, but everyone said okay after seeing your SNS followers!]
“Oh, yes.”
[But they asked me to show them the pictures you’re going to upload first]
“Yes, I have a corrected one. I will send it to you now.”
[Okay, okay]
Yang Chihoon said after sending some pictures.
“I sent it. Yes.”
[Oh, it’s here!]! I’ll tell you right away after I check with the agency. It won’t take long!]
“Yes, yes, yes, yes.”
The phone was cut off again, and about 30 minutes later, I got a call.
[Okay!]! Go ahead! I’ll put in the hashtag through Kakao Talk
“You’re going to get a confirmation so soon?” It’s an all-time pace.”
[The main characters are not very strict]. Rather, there are some supporting actors who are a bit cheeky. Anyway, that’s right.]
“Yes, but this is not the finished version. “is that okay?”
[Yes]. You can put it up like a still cut. But you have to post a poster of Kang Jinseok! That’s the main part.]
“Yes, yes, yes, yes. Then I’ll come right away.”
[Okay! Then let’s have a drink of soju with Jinho later]
After hanging up the phone, I logged in to SNS right away.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen SNS.
There were countless notifications. These are notifications that I have already given up checking for years.
Yang Chihoon started uploading photos on social media.
“I chose it without self-interest.” I wonder if it’s natural because it’s a face that will come out well no matter who takes it.”
Yang Chihoon, who wrote a picture, a few tags, and a simple article, threw his cell phone anywhere.
“I really need to sleep now.”‘
He threw himself into bed, sobbing like a deflated balloon.
Yang Chihoon fell asleep shortly afterward.
On the contrary, notifications began to pop up like crazy on his phone.
TN: idk if Ha Sarang and Chihoon are together or not but let’s see after a few more chapters.
