Chapter 282

Shut up. Jiwoon, explain this to me. What role is actor Lee Seo-jun playing and what role is Taeyoung playing?

-Well, actor Kang will play the role of male lead B.

Male lead B?

Manager Joo Yong-jin frowned. If hes the male lead, hes the male lead. Whats with the B? 

He seemed to read his question and the staff on the other side of the phone continued.

-There are two male leads, A and B. The synopsis doesnt reveal who the real male lead is yet.

Then lets skip that. What about actor Lee Seo-jun? I read it and there was no role suitable for him.

At Joo Yong-jins words, Kang Taeyoungs eyes sparkled.

You read it too!

Yeah. Jiwoon, what is it?

As a manager, he had to read it when his actor wanted to do it.

But Joo Yong-jin changed the subject as he felt embarrassed by Kang Taeyoungs happy expression.

-Hes a child actor. The child version of the male lead.

Uh

Awesome!

Unlike Joo Yong-jin, who touched his forehead at the unexpected role, Kang Taeyoung was scanning the synopsis of Spring again with shining eyes.

Since he was the first love in the heroines memory, the child version of the male lead was described as beautiful and precious enough to make her happy just by remembering him.

I was wondering who could do it, but Seo-jun is perfect for it!

Kang Taeyoung, who seemed excited, sighed and said.

I got it. Send me the synopsis.

-Yes!

The phone hung up and Kang Taeyoung, who didnt know what to do with his joy, was lost in thought while Joo Yong-jin had a serious expression on his face.

Why are you so serious, Yong-jin hyung? Isnt it great that I get to act with Seo-jun? We should accept it right away! What if someone else takes it?

Lets think about it a bit. Actor Kang.

Yes. Manager.

As Kang Taeyoung sat down, Joo Yong-jin took out the synopsis that his agency had sent him. 

He gave one copy to Kang Taeyoung and read the other one himself.

[MBS / Spring Has Returned]

[PD: Gong Hee-chan]

[Writer: Yoo Cheong-ah]

He turned over the cover of the synopsis and saw the names of the cast members.

[Male Lead A: Park Do-hoon]

[Male Lead B:]

[Child Version of Male Lead: Lee Seo-jun]

Male lead A is actor Park Do-hoon. Ive never met him before, so I was curious! Come to think of it, hes from Lee Seo-juns agency! Ugh. I want to join Lee Seo-juns agency too!

Taeyoung, focus.

At Joo Yong-jins words, Kang Taeyoung rolled his eyes and shut his mouth.

After a while, Joo Yong-jin put down the synopsis and sighed. Kang Taeyoung pouted his lips.

"Why are you so serious since earlier? Some people cant get this opportunity and are going crazy

Do you know what it means to act as an adult version of Lee Seo-jun?

What does it mean?

What am I going to do with this kid?

Joo Yong-jin sighed heavily and opened his mouth.

First of all, lets look at the appearance.

Appearance?

Lee Seo-jun is handsome, right?

At Joo Yong-jins question, Kang Taeyoungs eyes sparkled.

Seo-jun has been famous for his beauty since he was a baby! When he smiled with a milk bottle in his arms, I thought my heart would stop! It was the first time I was shocked by a baby!

That

And what about 48 Hours! Ive never been so jealous of Brown Black! Oh my god! A bunny ear hat! His cheeks were red and chubby that I wanted to squeeze them, his hands were so small that he had to hold a wooden block with both hands. Why was crawling so cute! If he was my brother, I would have loved him so much!

Tae

He did so well in his first acting! That acting skill was his first acting Even a genius actor couldnt do that! He has a once-in-a-thousand-year talent! Our Seo-jun is the best!

I made a mistake.

At Joo Yong-jins words, Kang Taeyoung laughed.

Kang Taeyoung.

Occupation: Actor. Age: 28.

He was a sprout that had been green since he threw a tantrum on the living room floor, asking his mom and dad to give him a sibling like the one in the Elephant Milk commercial.

Lets get to the point if youre done bragging.

I still have more to say Yes!

He still had a lot to say about Shadowman1, but he obediently closed his mouth at Joo Yong-jins sharp eyes.

Okay. So, Lee Seo-jun grows up to be you.

Wow! That cant be!

Seo-jun has to grow up more handsome than me!

You really

Joo Yong-jin touched his forehead.

He had a lot to say, but he didnt know what to say first. 

He just ignored him.

First of all, theres a difference in appearance. But its a drama, so the viewers will probably accept it since youre handsome too.

There will be some people who wont accept it.

Joo Yong-jin swallowed his sigh.

The production team must have considered that and cast you and actor Park Do-hoon.

At Joo Yong-jins words, Kang Taeyoung nodded obediently.

Next is acting. There are some dramas where the child actors did well, but the adult actors couldnt act and the immersion was ruined. But here, Lee Seo-jun is in it. How much do you think youll be compared?

Joo Yong-jin persuaded him.

Besides, what you want is not a role opposite Lee Seo-jun, right? This has separate parts for the past and the present, so you wont even act together.

There was no change in the expression of the actor who didnt react to his words. Joo Yong-jin sighed.

Do you really have to do this? Its hard to get a good response from this.

At Joo Yong-jins worried words, Kang Taeyoung smiled happily.

You know my motto. If I care about other peoples eyes, Ill do something weird. So I say what I like and what I dont like

Shut up. Youre a celebrity.

At Joo Yong-jins words, Kang Taeyoung shrugged his shoulders.

I want to do this work too. I have to repay PD Gongs favor. I got to be in the same work as Lee Seo-jun. When will I get this chance again?

Thats true, but

Joo Yong-jin, who was rather convinced by Kang Taeyoung, scratched his head and nodded.

Fine. Its your reputation thats at stake, so do as you please.

Ah, hyung!

What, why, what.

He knew that they would go through this together anyway. 

Kang Taeyoung smiled innocently and Joo Yong-jin shook his head and contacted his agency.

Yeah. Taeyoung said yes.

-Yes! Well contact you right away!

Meanwhile, Kang Taeyoung read the synopsis again.

The title is Spring Has Returned? If I shorten it, its Bomdol? Bomdol, bomdol. I want to eat bomdong. Hyung, lets eat bomdong kimchi with boiled pork!

Oh my god. Youre crazy.

The next day, in the morning, after all the actors were cast.

An article will be out in 30 minutes!

Kim Jin-myung, the chief producer who had left the filming site to another PD and stayed at the broadcasting station, shouted. 

He was busy with various things, such as filming the thriller Tomorrow and taking care of the four-part project.

Everyone, be careful what you say. You might get contacted by reporters you know.

The staff nodded at Kim Jin-myungs words.

It was better not to reveal that the casting was almost ruined by someones actions.

Then lets enjoy the Lee Seo-jun effect!

He didnt care about the low ratings of the Monday-Tuesday and Wednesday-Thursday dramas anymore. 

From now on until the end of the drama Spring Has Returned, MBS drama department would only have a rosy path.

Spring has returned to us too!

Did we ever have spring?

They shed a tear at the fact that pierced their bones.

Soon, the press release sent by MBS entered the mailboxes of the entertainment reporters. 

And one reporter who was habitually scanning his mailbox saw Lee Seo-juns name and jumped up from his seat.

Lee Seo-jun is here!!

The reporters who were doing different things stopped their work and checked their mail right away. 

They prepared to write an article and picked up their phones. 

Then they pressed the numbers of MBS officials who they had hardly contacted when the ratings were low.

Oh, hello. PD! Long time no see!

I just received a press release

The MBS officials who received the phone calls and the reporters who made them were busy moving. 

They typed on their keyboards while holding their phones on their shoulders.

And the article was uploaded.

***

By the way, I got a casting offer a few days ago.

A peaceful day.

One of the staff members who was working as usual remembered something. 

His hands and eyes were working, but his ears were focused on the staff members voice.

Where from?

MBS.

MBS means writer Oh Young-chuls work?

No. A four-part project. You know how our team leader said when I reported it to him. Our Tae-in is not at that level. Remember?

The staff members laughed at the team leaders imitation by the staff member.

But MBS was too much. Even if hes the lead, our actor is not good enough for a four-part project.

I know, right.

While the staff members were chatting, there was one staff member who was alone looking at the entertainment news. 

He was a new employee who was in charge of monitoring.

A four-part project

He couldnt join in the conversation, but he listened and searched for MBSs four-part project. 

He didnt expect much from seeing other peoples reactions, but he was surprised to see that there were a lot of articles?..!

Um The project that got an offer Was it a thriller? A romance?

Uh? Um. It was a romance

Bang!

The team leader of actor 1 team opened the office door roughly and came in. 

He was breathing heavily and his face was red. 

He looked like he had run from somewhere and his face was covered with sweat.

He didnt even wipe his sweat and his eyes wandered around the faces of the staff members and headed to the staff member who received the casting call. 

The staff member who was about to answer the new employee stiffened at the team leaders ominous vibe.

The team leader walked up to him with big strides and opened his mouth.

Was it a thriller or a romance that MBS offered?

The eyes of the staff members in the office turned to the new employee. 

The new employee turned pale as he heard the faint answer of the staff member.

The staff member realized that something had happened by seeing the new employees face change.

It wasnt a romance, right?

If it wasnt a romance but a thriller, it would have been a pity but they could have gotten over it. But if it was a romance? 

They might have missed a golden opportunity for their company.

Wait. No. Was it a romance?

If it was a romance, and if they hadnt finished casting yet, there might still be a chance left.

The team leaders mind wavered.

The staff member opened his mouth cautiously.

It was a romance but

What!? Call them! Call them now!

Who, who should I call?

MBS! Call them back!

While the team leader and staff member were making calls, other staff members crowded around the new employee.

Whats going on?

Do you know why?

That

Suddenly surrounded by attention, the new employee swallowed his saliva.

Actor Lee Seo-jun is appearing in MBSs special project drama. Its a romance work. And its been extended from four parts to six parts.

Oh my god!

Such a high-level actor?

The staff members eyes turned to the team leader. 

The anxious team leader yelled.

Why arent they answering the phone!

***

Its already starting to go up!

The firepower is different.

The past articles are also getting a lot of views.

Just like the phones of the staff members at MBS drama department were ringing, the phones of Kim Dan-bi and Choi Hyun-woo, the assistant directors, also started ringing. 

Especially, they received a lot of emails and texts because they had personally made the casting calls.

They smiled crookedly at the names that appeared on their phone screens.

Where are you?

Kim Tae-ins agency. You?

Lim Ye-yoons agency.

They were both actors they had offered to cast. 

Of course, they refused when they heard it was a four-part drama on MBS. They met eyes and shrugged their shoulders as they answered the phone.

Yes. Hello.

Yes. What can I do for you?

They didnt want to answer, but they werent going to make only one drama, and they couldnt afford to alienate the actors agencies that were indispensable for dramas.

Yes. Hes really in it. Well, it wasnt confirmed yet at that time, so I couldnt tell you.

What can I do? You said you wouldnt do it, so I already signed a contract with another actor

While receiving the phone calls, Kim Dan-bi and Choi Hyun-woo sat down at their seats and checked the internet reactions. 

As soon as they entered the site, they saw the article that was on top.

[MBS special project drama, actor Lee Seo-jun confirmed!]
