OS Group’s affiliated company, OS International Headquarters Representative Office.
Representative Oh Haneul and Chief of Staff Kang Kyeongsik watched “In Spring Without Flowers”.
“As expected, the CEO has a really good eye. The work of the BDD station overwhelmed the work of the KSC.”
“Ha ha, ha, ha. You’re painting my face gold. It’s good luck, luck.”
Representative Oh Haneul spoke modestly, but he was quite happy inside.
Good, good, good
After the drama, Oh Haneul said with a satisfied smile.
“I saw your report today, and you’re almost ready to establish OS Entertainment.”
“Yes, sir. Now we just need to fill the staff, but there are some problems with the supply and demand of professional staff.”
“What part are you having trouble with?”
“Yes. If you look at this…”
Kang Kyeongsik gave Oh Haneul the data he had prepared.
“Finance, management, and human resources can be filled within the company today. But. The problem is that there are no specialized managers on the corporate side.”
The data Kang Kyeongsik handed over included internal organization charts for each department and team.
Most of them had nominees, but the positions of vice presidents and prominent managers were empty.
Oh Haneul, who carefully examined the data from beginning to end, muttered.
“Hmm… The most urgent thing is that we don’t have a vice president to run the company on my behalf.”
“That’s right. People who are fluent in this field have private businesses or are already treated more than executives.”
“That’s true. But I can’t let anyone sit down.”
Meanwhile, Oh Haneul continued to scan the data. Then, as if I didn’t understand it well, I asked Kang Kyeongsik.
“But why aren’t there any managers? I’m not ignoring the position of a manager, but isn’t a manager easy to find?”
“It is easy to find ordinary road managers and managers. However, it is not easy to find ‘real’ managers who are suitable for our company level, as you have previously instructed.”
Oh Haneul, listening to Kang Kyeongsik, put the data on his desk. Then he leaned back in his chair and said.
“Then let’s get the vice president first. And I think you’d better find a manager. Because the eyes of the expert may be different.”
Oh Haneul, who was instructing Kang Kyeongsik, suddenly remembered a company in his head.
Stay still. . . I heard that the CEO of that company came out as if he had been kicked out.
“Chief, Yoon Entertainment. Please check the situation here as well.”

“I can’t believe I’m coming to college…”
I never imagined that I would drop out of high school and go to college.
But now that I was standing in front of the main gate of Seoguk University, I was among a crowd of students.
Mostly, I didn’t dare to go because the tuition was so high, but a full scholarship from the chief…
While I was thinking about this and that, a story I had with writer Jo Seokwon at a dinner party came to mind.
——
“Jinseok, I heard the news. “I heard you entered college this time?”
“Ah yes. “I somehow ended up going late.”
“Hey, you made a good choice. Being a student is the happiest time in my life. Do you know anything else? I wonder if I will film a piece with a university background later. “Someday, the ‘college student experience’ will help me with my acting.”
——
He also told me that it must have been difficult because of the recent filming, so I should rest well while going to school.
‘Okay. Let’s rest in peace until the next project.’
I entered the school while looking around. The campus was quite crowded.
‘Where is the art school?’
After wandering around for a while, I finally found the classroom. When I opened the door and entered, students were already gathered in groups of twos and threes.
At that time, I made eye contact with a student.
“···Uh?”
It was a short word, but it was enough to attract the attention of other students.
“…It’s him, right?”
“Okay, what did I say? “I said he was Nakamura, the head of our department.”
“Oh my god. “If I ask you to take a picture, will you take it?”
“But he’s really handsome…”
In fact, even on the way to school, people would look at me and whisper like this.
At times like that, I felt really happy that people recognized me as an ‘actor’. Because I felt like I was a little closer to my goals and dreams.
‘What···. It would have been better if they had said Kang Jinseok instead of Nakamura.’
I laughed at myself for becoming more greedy in that short period of time.
As I sit in an empty seat at the front of the classroom, I can feel the students’ passionate gaze on the back of my head.
‘I’m a little excited…’
It wasn’t because of the students’ gaze.
Rather, it was the excitement of my first college lecture, something I had never even dreamed of, no, I had never been able to do before.
After a while, the lecture began.
***
“···Then today’s lecture ends here. “You can submit individual and group assignments in lieu of the midterm and final exams whenever they are completed.”
‘For sure… professors are different.’
The first lecture was a subject called ‘Acting 1’.
Should I say that it is a lecture that summarizes what I learned through physical encounters?
It wasn’t a huge enlightenment. However, it was definitely a useful lecture as it explained the basics step by step.
‘The other kids didn’t seem to have much fun.’
‘You’re teaching on OT day…’ I kept hearing it in the background.
While I was thinking that, someone came up to me and spoke to me.
“Excuse me···.”
“?”
Four students. There were two boys and two girls.
“Hello. My name is Hyeongju Park, class of ’18. that···. Jinseok Kang… “Is that correct?”
“Yes. you’re right. hello? Seniors.”
I got up from my seat and greeted him politely, and Park Hyeongju also greeted me.
Park Hyeongju speaks with a nervous smile.
“Wow… There is no need to greet me like that. “It’s no different, there is a welcome party for new students today.”
“Ah yes.”
“I posted my vote in the group chat room, but no one said anything. “I don’t think you even confirmed it…”
At his words, I quickly turned on my phone.
‘I need to get into the habit of checking messages…’
As he said, we voted on participation in the freshmen group chat room, and everyone except me completed it.
“Sorry. “I didn’t realize it.”
“Oh, no. it’s okay. Because you must be very busy. But could you possibly come today?”
As Park Hyeongju hesitated to ask, the eyes of the other students next to him sparkled and they helped each other out.
“The professor is coming too! “A lot of student council members and other seniors are coming too!”
“It will be fun! Plus, it’s free for new students!”
‘What···. ‘I said I’d take the day off from my part-time job today, so it’ll be okay.’
Since I didn’t have any plans, I scratched my cheek and said,
“Yes, I will go.”
Park Hyeongju smiled brightly after hearing what I said.
***
A new student welcome party was held in an entire bar in front of the school.
It was awkward at first, but soon the freshmen were playing in groups and groups with like-minded people.
“Can you take a picture with me just once?”
“Oh, just shake hands once…”
“I heard that you were selected for this drama through an audition. Is it true? “How was the atmosphere?”
“I’m releasing a web drama I filmed next week. Would it be okay if I promoted it on social media just once? ah···. You don’t do social media? So why not make it now? “I’ll make it for you!!”
Of course, the place where the most students gathered was Jinseok’s table.
That’s because most of the students in the theater department wanted to become actors, so they couldn’t help but be interested in Jinseok, a new actor.
Although he was a supporting actor, Jinseok, who appeared in a terrestrial drama, was an object of envy among theater students.
Many students felt attracted to Jinseok, who was friendly and not condescending despite his position.
“In the drama, he was very scary and charismatic. “He’s actually very nice.”
“That’s right. But we can’t take pictures together. “It’s too much of a comparison.”
“I just covered my face with an emoticon.”
Someone was sitting far away and glaring at Jinseok.
‘You have become a very big star.’
It was Seo Inhyuk, who was pushed to second place due to Jinseok.
Seo Inhyuk, who chewed Jinseok once, took the drink and went to Jinseok’s table.
To destroy Jinseok’s perfect appearance.
Seo Inhyuk said to Jinseok, gently shaking his glass.
“Instead of just taking pictures, why don’t you have a drink? “It’s a welcome party for new students.”
***
A legendary boxer said this:
“Everyone has a good plan. “Until you get hit.”
Seo Inhyuk was in exactly that situation.
‘What is this guy?’
At first, everything went according to plan.
Jinseok gulped down the drink he gave him, and he just joined in.
One glass becomes two, and those glasses become several bottles…
Seo Inhyuk, who prided himself on being a leader, was reaching his limits.
‘···I lost because of drinking? To a guy who looks like a gisaeng brother like that?’
Even though he drank enough to fill one side of the table with bottles, Jinseok did not waver at all.
“It looks difficult…”
No, rather, Jinseok poured a drink for Seo Inhyuk and said as if he was worried.
“Don’t push yourself too hard.”
Jinseok’s words certainly sounded like he was worried, but they contained something like a subtle warning.
It could have been Seo Inhyuk’s illusion.
‘Unlucky child…’
Then other students at the same table spoke to Jinseok.
“Aren’t you pushing yourself too hard? “The other kids took a break and drank in moderation.”
“Jinseok, are you okay? Would you like me to buy you some ice cream?”
“Jinseok oppa is more macho than he seems…? As expected, it’s my style… greatness!”
‘This guy and that girl, it’s all Jinseok, Jinseok…’
Jinseok greets each and every student who passes by, and when his seniors go home, he sees them off without anyone asking him to.
Even his polite attitude of paying attention to even the smallest details was a thorn in Seo Inhyuk’s eyes.
‘Shit···. ‘I need to go to the bathroom.’
Seo Inhyuk got up from his seat, feeling annoyed inside.
Stumbling.
‘Ah-oh. It’s really embarrassing.’
He wasn’t bad at drinking, but he seemed to have drunk too much in his attempts to get Jinseok drunk.
“Hey, it’s okay…”
“Inhyuk…”
“Someone come together…”
The surroundings were noisy, and because I drank so much, I couldn’t hear the students’ worried comments.
“It’s okay! I’ll go alone… su! “This!”
I roughly shook off the students who offered to help me and went to the bathroom.
‘Ah… why does this bar have a bathroom outside…’
Perhaps because he woke up suddenly, his eyes were very dizzy.
Tuk…
As I was stumbling into the bathroom building, I bumped into someone passing by.
If he had been sober, he would have apologized and moved on, but Seo Inhyuk, who was drunk, was not at the level where he could make a sound judgment.
Seo Inhyuk glanced at the person he had bumped into without realizing it and headed to the bathroom.
Then, Seo Inhyuk’s body flinched as he was slapped on the back of the head.
“Hey!!”
The man approached like an angry bull and violently pulled Seo Inhyuk by the shoulder.
“Eww···.”
When I managed to focus, I could see straight ahead.
‘W-what is this?’
The person who turned himself around was the so-called ‘muscle pig’.
It’s also an ‘evil’ attribute muscle pig.
This is the type of person you should never get into a fight with at a bar.
“Ugh…”
Seo Inhyuk looked at the man with open eyes.
The problem was that when I looked at him with open eyes, it seemed as if he was glancing at the other person.
Perhaps because he felt bad, the man grabbed Seo Inhyuk by the collar.
“If I bump into you, you should apologize, why are you looking at me like that?!”
“Sin… sorry…”
Seo Inhyuk apologized in a hurry.
Unfortunately, the apology made in a crawling voice did not reach the muscle pig.
“Ok?! What is he saying now!!”
The atmosphere gradually became more hostile, and crowds of people were gathering around.
It was then.
“Sorry. “I’ll just pass by.”
Someone pushed through the crowd and came forward.
Seo Inhyuk glanced behind him while still being held by the collar.
‘Kang Jinseok…?’
Jinseok was there, smiling.
