Chapter 48
Chapter 48
Ryan Will, the director, had arrived in Korea. It had been less than 24 hours since Seo-jun sent him the video. He must have been in a hurry, because all he brought with him were a few scripts and a wallet.
And so, the conversation between Seo-jun and Ryan Will began.
Ryan Will didnt say a word after greeting him. He just stared at Seo-jun.
His eyes scanned Seo-jun from head to toe, with a serious expression, as if he was seeing him for the first time.
Seo-jun held back his laughter and lifted his head with confidence.
He wanted to show off. He wanted to brag. His video was worth it.
Ryan Will, who had been looking at him intently, opened his mouth.
Youve become ordinary.
What?
That was an unexpected evaluation. Was that bad? Seo-jun tilted his head.
Before, you had a kind aura that radiated from you even when you smiled.
Ryan Will frowned. Seo-juns head followed his movement.
Now, I dont feel anything. Youre ordinary.
Is that good?
For now.
Ryan Will nodded at Seo-juns question.
You need a blank canvas to paint it white or black. Thats good.
And then, silence fell between them. Ryan Will washed his face.
How did you do it?
He lowered his hands from his face and broke the silence.
Until the last video, Im sorry to say this, but you were terrible.
Why do you say that if youre sorry?
Seo-jun pouted. He wasnt really hurt. Because he could tell from Ryan Wills eyes and his gesture when he entered the door.
That was the past. Now
Ryan Will answered with a very satisfied face.
Youre the best.
Seo-juns eyes widened at the sudden compliment. He expected some praise, but he didnt expect him to say he was the best. But soon, he was happy to hear the praise and he smiled brightly.
Right? I did really well, right?
Yes. Thats why I burned all the revised scripts.
Revised scripts?
He remembered Jonathan, who ran out in shock at the late-night burning of the revised scripts, but he quickly put it aside. Ryan Will nodded.
I was going to make you appear as little as possible if you didnt solve it before the shooting.
That was the first time he heard that. He wondered if he didnt trust him, but he soon understood Ryan Wills feelings and nodded. If he had seen the practice videos for seven, no, eight months, he would have done the same.
They were really,
The worst.
It was awkward and strange to see a child who had a kind atmosphere and said villainous lines. It felt like he was imitating someone poorly.
Who forced him to say those things? Thats what he thought.
Seo-jun shivered and said.
If I had acted according to the original script, people would have only felt awkwardness from my acting.
Ryan Will nodded his head. His smile stayed on his face. He had pulled out the first script as soon as he saw the video.
He was excited to compare the cold-eyed boy in the video with William. He couldnt wait and flew to Korea.
But theres no need for that now.
Hehehe.
The two of them smiled brightly and broke the serious mood. Ryan Wills eyes sparkled.
Then Id like to see it for myself, is that okay?
Yes!
Seo-jun got off his chair. He clenched his right hand.
[The Sorrowful Scent of a Lonely Flower-Bad-Low] is activated.
[The Sorrowful Scent of a Lonely Flower-Bad-Low]
Only this flower blooms within a 10m radius.
It looks like a weed and no one knows that its a flower.
You feel depressed when you smell the flowers scent.
And,
In front of director Ryan Wills eyes, there was a child who hated the world for being abused.
Director Ryan Will was satisfied with Seo-juns acting. And he prepared to go back to America.
He seemed to have been in Korea for less than 10 hours, but he was already leaving. The couple who wanted to tell him to rest a bit before going back shut their mouths at the sight of Ryan Wills fierce eyes.
Seo-juns acting that he saw in person had a different atmosphere from the video. Ryan Will wanted to go back and rewrite the script as soon as possible. He took the fastest flight back to America without resting for an hour.
After Ryan Will left, Seo-jun bragged to his mom and dad for a long time. The couple who saw Seo-juns acting praised him for doing so well. Seo-jun was very satisfied and fell asleep.
He was excited to go to the library of bad tendencies and read the two books that were open.
He didnt have enough magic or time to open more than two. But he felt that soon the same number of doors would open in the library of good tendencies.
I hope they open soon too! I wonder what books are there!
Unlike the gloomy eight months, the son who fell asleep with a giggle made the couple happy as well.
And the day dawned.
It was the weekend, so Seo-eun-hye went out to meet her friends. Today, Lee Min-joon spent the day with Seo-jun. After eating the delicious lunch that his dad made, Seo-jun looked at the mirror while brushing his teeth.
Huh?
There was nothing on his head. The thing that always sparkled above him,
The spoon is gone!?
Seo-jun spat out the toothpaste foam. And he quickly rinsed his mouth with water and looked at the mirror again. There was no number no matter how he looked.
Dad! Call the hyungs! Video call!
What?
Call the hyungs!
Lee Min-joon looked confused and made a video call. The hyungs that Seo-jun was talking about were none other than Brown Black.
Brown Black would be busy with practice or schedule, so he contacted Seo-eun-chan, who became the president of Cocoa Entertainment.
Seo-eun-chan, who happened to be with Brown Black, answered the phone and handed it over to them.
Huh! Its gone!
-What? Whats gone?
Seo-juns eyes widened. The number that should have been floating above Brown Blacks head, [Orchestra Conductors Connection-Low], which indicated their bond, was gone.
Suddenly, Seo-jun remembered the beads that fell with a clang in his head.
Impossible!
Did it reset when it fell off? Thats too easy to reset!
Wait a minute.
How long has it been since the bead fell off? Seo-jun couldnt hear the voice of Brown Black calling him. He counted his fingers one by one and fell into thought.
He opened the library door, woke up from his sleep and sent a video, then Ryan came the next day, and it was morning again.
Its been three days!
Three days is fine. He heard from his uncle Chan that Brown Black was on a break because of the former president of Cocoa Entertainment.
Of course, even though they were on a break, they must have sung songs to prepare for the next album, but still, three days.
It had only been three days.
Seo-jun asked hastily.
Guys. How was the practice yesterday?
-Practice? It was the same as usual.
No, I mean, more. How do I say this. Did you have trouble breathing or did your skills drop?
Brown Black shook their heads with puzzled faces.
-Weve been in perfect sync since the Christmas Eve stage.
Seo-jun buried his face in his hands. It wont work. They dont know the effect of the skill. What should I do?
His head was spinning. Seo-jun lifted his head with a flash.
What are you guys doing today?
-We have a fan meeting. Weve been a bit shaky this year. Do you want to come, Seo-jun?
Do you perform on stage at the fan meeting? Are there a lot of fans coming?
-We invited as many as we could because everyone had a hard time this time. Of course we perform. Our nickname is Live-dol.
Seo-jun nodded at Park Seo-jins words.
Ill go too. When does the fan meeting start?
-Um. Its at one oclock, but it might be a bit late if you come now. Theres a 6 oclock time too. Do you want to come then?
No! I want to go now! Dad! Lets go!
Lee Min-joon was startled and looked at Seo-jun. He was about to say, It might be too late if we go now, how about 6 oclock but he closed his mouth and quietly grabbed his phone, wallet, and car keys.
It was because his sons eyes were burning and he didnt seem to give up.
He got a text from Seo Eun-chan with the location. It was far. It seemed to take more than 30 minutes, but he decided to do his best for his son. He sent a simple text to Seo Eun-hye.
Hurry! Dad! Hurry!
Seo-jun rolled his feet. Lee Min-joon drove while keeping the speed limit for his sons safety.
Fortunately, the traffic was not bad, and they were able to arrive at the fan meeting place soon.
Seo-jun! Bro!
Seo Eun-chan was waiting outside the fan meeting hall. He also looked at Seo-jun with a bewildered face.
Seo Eun-chan led the two people into the fan meeting hall. The passing staff and the stage production company staff greeted the president and Seo Eun-chan lightly.
Whats going on all of a sudden?
Uncle! Did it start already?
It started already. Theyre on stage right now.
Seo-jun opened his mouth. It cant be! Seo-jun, who was rolling his feet, heard Seo Eun-chans voice like a ray of light.
You can meet them backstage after the first part is over.
Are they not going to sing in the first part?
They already sang at the beginning of the fan meeting, and theyre going to talk with the fans for a while and then sing another song at the end. There will be more stages in the second part.
Seo-jun let out a sigh of relief. He thought it would be okay if they couldnt sing twice as long as they made up for it in the second part. They couldnt tarnish their reputation as live idols! He felt drained from worrying too much.
Seo-jun, who had been impatiently tapping his feet, suddenly looked calm. Seo-eun-chan and Lee Min-joon exchanged glances. Whats wrong with him? I dont know. Lee Min-joon shook his head.
Seo-eun-chan scratched his cheek a few times and opened his mouth.
Do you want to go over there and watch the fan meeting?
Yes!
Okay. But you have to be quiet, okay?
Yes.
Seo-jun held Seo-eun-chans hand and headed to their seats.
They were close to the audience seats where the fans were sitting, but no one noticed Seo-jun and Seo-eun-chan coming in because they were all absorbed in Brown Black on the stage.
Choi Si-yoon, who was on the stage, was the only one who noticed them and winked at them. Seo-jun waved back. Lee Min-joon, who had called Seo-eun-hye and told her the situation, also sat next to Seo-jun.
Brown Black was talking with the fans on the stage. The three of them sat down and watched the fan meeting.
It was time to read the notes that the fans had written in advance, and there was a lot of overlapping content. Hwang Ye-jun grabbed the microphone and said with a smile.
This is the same too. President Seo-eun-chan, please take good care of our Brown Black! We would appreciate it if you could do it just like when you were a manager. Eun-chan hyung has already received this many notes.
Hwang Ye-jun put the notes on the table. The contents of the piled-up notes were similar.
Were also really happy that Eun-chan hyung became the president. We can say what we want more comfortably now. We hope you stay the same as always.
The fans clapped hard at Park Seo-jins words. They trusted Seo-eun-chan, who looked fierce but was kind. They wished for the best for Cocoa Enters future.
Uncle, youre awesome!
Uh-huh-huh.
Seo-eun-chan smiled awkwardly, feeling embarrassed by his nephews compliment. He was a first-time president, but he felt like he could do well with so many people supporting him.
The first part of the fan meeting flew by and the final stage of Brown Black was being prepared.
Seo-jun clenched his fists again, feeling anxious. He wondered if they could satisfy the fans who had seen many stages before, even though they had no talent.
Boom boom!
The music started. The fans cheered as they saw Brown Black, who had thrown away their playful image and stood on the stage with serious faces.
