Chapter 63

[I’ve met you once before at the ballpark]. [Do you remember?]

“Oh, yes. Hello.”

[I’m sorry to call you so early][Oh...]

“That’s fine. But where did you get my number?”

[Oh, I should’ve told you that first!]! In the past, Ha Minah. No, you exchanged your contact information with Minah, right? At the ballpark! I got it from her.]

A contact number saved as ‘Red Liz’ came to mind on my cell phone.

Oh, her name was Ha Minah.‘

When I didn’t say anything, Park Hayeon hurriedly continued.

[I heard it from my manager]. [I heard you’re very busy preparing for “The Way They Chose”]

I think the manager looked around in moderation. I couldn’t have said calmly, “You have a problem with your personality, so I can’t be with you.”

“Yes, I have a lot to prepare.”

[I see...]. Actually, I’m auditioning for “The Way They Choose” again. [The person who was supposed to be in charge dropped out.]

I didn’t know that. Park Hayeon wanted to be in the same work as me.

“Did the manager know?”

But this wasn’t the time to think about it. How can I ‘naturally’ cut off the call with Park Hayeon?

[Kang Jinseok, I’ll tell you straightforwardly]

Park Hayeon said in a serious voice when she was about to gloss over her wish for a good result.

[A few days later, I’m auditioning for the role of “The Boss’s Daughter,” you know? What kind of role is it?]

There was no way I didn’t know. She’s a supporting actor who plays the role of Licorice in this work.

“Yes, I know.”

[It’s a supporting role, but it’s an important role, right?]? So, please say that it would be better to use a recognized actor for that role. [Since you’re the main character, I think that’s possible]

“···.”

[Then I’ll do my best to help you with what you’re doing]. I get a lot of variety shows and commercials, and we can do it together. [How is it?]

Park Hayeon speaks confidently as if there was no way I could refuse. I was angry at her suggestion, but the attitude was even more upsetting.

“That’s what I’m saying. Are you asking me to cheer you up for the audition?”

[that’s right, to be honest]. [Still...]

“I don’t like it.”

[···.]

“I hope you don’t call me about this in the future. a request for an audition. It’s something I really hate.”

[This is not a request, but a win-win...]

“A close friend of mine is also auditioning for the role. But even if she asked me for this, I would never have listened to her. She wouldn’t have asked for this in the first place.”

Park Hayeon was listening to me without saying anything.

I hung up right away because I had nothing more to say.

***

About a week later.

Now I was at the headquarters of Studio Redcat.

“Hey, 2.13 million!” Huh? “You got better! 2.14 million!”

From a distance, Min Kyungsoo called me playfully.

The staff around me were holding back their laughter and peeking at Min Kyungsoo and me.

“Brother, ··. Please don’t call me that.”

“Huh? I can’t believe 2.14 million followers call me brother!”

After such a minor prank.

said Min Kyungsoo.

“Wow, but I was really surprised. “How can your followers go up so fast?”

“I was surprised, too. According to my manager, I think there was a lot of inflow from photographer Yang Chihoon’s SNS.”

“Hello. Are you the one who came to audition today? Oh, I’m Park Hayeon.”

“Yes, I’m Seo Yeonsoo.”

Seo Yeonsoo knew who Park Hayeon was from the first time she saw her. This is because I often watch “Yeonyan Diary”.

But she didn’t make it obvious.

I don’t know why, but Park Hayeon kept staring at me, and she didn’t want to cheer her up.

“I’m auditioning for the same role...” “Did you prepare a lot?”

“Yes.”

“Oh, I see. I really prepared a lot, too.”

Park Hayeon said with a slightly fishy smile.

“I’m auditioning for the same role, but one of the two will end up failing out. But let’s not blame each other.”

It was something I didn’t have to say before the audition. Nevertheless, Park Hayeon deliberately brought up such words.

To press Seo Yeonsoo’s flag.

“I was trained all night by the acting coaches for this audition.”

It was a kind of war of nerves common in one-on-one audition halls, with no cameras or witnesses.

“One of them told me. The key to this audition is to see if “The Boss’s Daughter,” who has lived her entire life at her disposal, can seduce and take away the first person in her life.”

“···.”

“To put it simply, it tests how fascinating a person can look.”

Park Hayeon, who finished speaking, smiled slightly. It was a rich and fascinating smile, not a cute smile that has been shown so far.

“At first, it was hard to get those emotions. I’ve never had anything that didn’t go my way until now.”

“···.”

“But strangely, Kang Jinseok couldn’t do as I wanted. Maybe that’s why he acts well. Perhaps because the emotions that this role demands are similar to those that I feel for actor Kang Jinseok

Park Hayeon continued with her arms crossed.

“But I don’t think you can act like that. It’s too plain.”

As I said as if to advise, there was certainly a mockery of Seo Yeonsoo.

Seo Yeonsoo, who had been listening silently for a long time, finally opened her mouth.

“Well, let’s say so. So, what is it that you want to say?”

“···?”

Park Hayeon was a little embarrassed by Seo Yeonsoo’s confidence.

For Park Hayeon, she thought that if she said this, Seo Yeonsoo would naturally feel discouraged, because the opponent was surprisingly formidable.

Park Hayeon bit her lower lip took a step closer to Seo Yeonsoo and said as if she was picking more.

“What do I want to say?” I’m telling you not to overdo it and try to do well. I’m going to get in anyway.”

Then, Seo Yeonsoo also looked at Park Hayeon and took a step closer to Park Hayeon without losing.

A waiting room with tension and silence as if something big was going to happen.

It was Seo Yeonsoo who broke the silence first.

“You said that earlier, right? “The Boss’s Daughter” is similar to Park Hayeon’s situation right now. So I practiced ‘acting’ with that emotion.”

“Yes, I did. What’s that?”

“It’s not a big deal. It’s just. I think I can do better if you practice like that. At least more so than that.”

Her voice was divination and her words were polite. However, the nuance and eyes were clearly provoking Park Hayeon.

“It’s not a big deal...”

When Park Hayeon was about to shout in a sharp voice.

“Did you practice seducing actor Kang Jinseok for your “Acting”

Seo Yeonsoo cut off Park Hayeon’s words. Then she said with a fascinating smile, her eyes flashing.

“I practiced to actually use it on you.”

“···.”

“Can you beat me like that?”
