Chapter 81
——
a shabby little shop. I see the back of a man. He was holding hands with a woman who appeared to be his wife.
a young couple who can be said to be somewhat young. He didn't show his expression, but "The Man" looked really happy.
Next to them was a brother like a son.
He smiled brightly, too.
[If you didn't know happiness]
[Wasn't he even aware of the sadness?]
However, contrary to his happy appearance, the narration was still dark.
[Boom!]
Then, suddenly, a car accident occurred, and the screen blacked out.
[You don't have much time]. She needs to get surgery right now.]
When the screen was bright again, the scene changed to an old hospital. The doctor in the white robe said to the ‘man'.
Until then, "The Man" only showed its back.
But this wasn't the end of the ordeal for the ‘man'.
[The debt left by your parents]. If you don't pay me back soon... [Don't you know what we're going to do with your brother?]
The thugs who filled the corner store giggled. Then he slapped his terrified brother on the cheek.
At that moment, the "man," who was standing like a folding screen like now, began to knock down the gangster next to his brother.
My brother looked at such a "man" with fearful eyes.
When his brother blinked, the background surrounding the man turned into a colorful room salon.
[He's so talented]
[Why don't you work for me?]? [Then I won't touch your wife and brother]
[What do you think?]
The boss sitting inside the room salon said to the ‘man'.
As soon as the boss's words were over, several scenes quickly appeared.
[How can you do this to us?!] Your parents will curse you in the sky!]
[Oh man, you'll feel cool even if you chew your teeth!]
An old man howls at a ‘man'.
[...I don't know anyone like that.]
My brother turns a blind eye to the ‘man'.
[It just becomes mine]. [Then I'll give you everything]
Two women with different deadly charms are seduced.
Then finally, the back of the ‘man' in a black suit was seen.
The back of the "man" was hit by heavy rain with mud and blood all over his body.
Moments later. The back of "The Man" is slowly closed up, and as he turns his head to the screen, his face is seen for the first time.
The face of a man who lost everything.
[The Way They Chose]
[Only on Netflix]. [December 24]

"I can't believe they edited it like this...".’
It was a short 59-second trailer, but I couldn't take my eyes off it for a second.
"Ha Sarang and PD, you're amazing."
I didn't even think about it. I didn't expect to show my face at the end after just showing my back.
In addition, the face was a face that was haggard from the diet, and it felt almost like Lee Manseok.
However, there was still a really important "evaluation" of netizens.
To me, it was a really well-made trailer, but it could be different for the viewers.
A nervous moment.
I turned down the screen and checked the comments.

Everyone seems to have the same eyes.
The manager was unable to speak properly due to Park Kyunghoon's fairly rude attitude.
Yoo Yeon sat down and pretended to write a rough report. Then I talked to the staff next to me.
"Yoo Yeon, are you free this evening? I heard you like wine, so I found a really good place."
"What? Ahaha... No. I think I'm going to be busy today, too. I think I'll leave work late. I'm sorry, deputy."
Yoo Yeon turned round and refused. In reality, he intended to leave on time, but he did not want to meet Park Kyunghoon in private.
"Oh, really? Then I'll help you out. I don't know if it's someone else, but if it's Yoo Yeon, I should help you. It's my adverb."
However, Park Kyunghoon persisted.
"Oh, no. It's okay, deputy. I'll do it. You have to write a report....”
"You can write the report roughly later. That's it, I'll take care of it, don't worry. Let's finish it quickly and go out together."
Yoo Yeon picked up the white flag on Park Kyunghoon, who stuck to the end. He lets out a small sigh so that he doesn't get caught.
"Sigh..." There is nothing I can do. I should take out what the manager ordered me to investigate by next week. It's gonna take a long time... I'll be able to send it today somehow.'
Yoo Yeon hated meeting Park Kyunghoon in private rather than working overtime. I sent Park Kyunghoon a task that was not urgent at all through messenger.
"The manager told me to investigate the guarantee of a new actor that I could use. Advertisers said it was boring because only the people they saw every day came out."
"Well, I see. So, who are you going to investigate?"
"One for now."
Yoo Yeon turned on the Excel on the desktop. It said ‘Kang Jinseok'.
"Today, the trailer of "The Way They Chose" is going crazy. So the manager told me to investigate the guarantee in advance. But Kang Jinseok never shot an advertisement, so he had to ask his agency. It'll probably take a long time to answer, right? Oh, that's not all, but we also need to look into brands that can be suggested to Kang Jinseok. I need to list the actual products. This is going to take a long time, too. So just leave work first....”
Yoo Yeon spoke like a fastball. There was a heart in it that said, "Please turn off."
"That's great just in time. If it's Kang Jinseok, I've already done a thorough investigation."
However, Park Kyunghoon, who was unnecessarily competent, said with a fishy smile.
"It was Kang Jinseok that I asked ‘Maserati' to use as a model."
Maserati was not very recognized in Korea, but it was a very recognizable car brand worldwide.
“..." Really?"
Yoo Yeon asked as if he was interested for the first time. As a fan of Jinseok from Jinseok's debut film, "Dreams of the Sun Rising," he had no choice but to respond lightly to Jinseok's commercial.
Even more so if it's a luxury car brand, Maserati.
"Yeah, Kang Jinseok should do a Maserati commercial....’
Yoo Yeon looked into the air with a slightly dim eye as he recalled Jinseok. Park Kyunghoon, who mistook it for admiring his greatness, was even more condescending.
"So I'm going to meet the manager of Kang Jinseok and talk to him tomorrow. I'm going to advertise Maserati, how much do you want to receive?"
"How much did you charge for modeling for Kang Jinseok?"
"I called the advertiser really hard. 500 million."
Yoo Yeon's eyes opened wide at the word 500 million.
"He's a rookie actor. 500 million won?" Did Maserati ask you that?"
"It's all thanks to my words. Anyway, I'm going to call Kang Jinseok's manager as cheap as possible tomorrow. That way, I leave a lot, and that's how much it's my bonus."
I asked Park Kyunghoon, who was so arrogant that I didn't want to see him, flexing.
"Oh... Yes. But does the manager negotiate like this? "Not the manager or the team leader?"
"I heard that Kang Jinseok's manager takes care of everything. Oh, this is high-quality information, too, but I told you."
I thought to myself, "This person can't be attached only when he has affection."
"But deputy."
"What?"
"How much would you tell the manager of Kang Jinseok?"
Then I suddenly wondered something. This was purely a question as a fan. What he was curious about was how much money his favorite star would make.
Park Kyunghoon shrugged his shoulders as if they were nothing.
"150 million."
“...150 million? Out of 500 million?"
"Yes, no matter how successful Kang Jinseok is, he's a rookie. Whether it's 1 million won or 10 million won, I'm sure they'll say that they're doing it because they're happy with the advertisement."
Nola spoke to Yoo Yeon as if Park Kyunghoon was bragging. Again, Park Kyunghoon mistook Yoo Yeon for admiring his greatness.
Yoo Yeon could not welcome Park Kyunghoon's words, which seemed to ignore Jinseok.
But he said, "Don't ignore our Jinseok! Yoo Yeon, who could not say, "Our Jinseok is the best!" said instead, warningly.
"But shouldn't you be too greedy?" Actor Kang Jinseok's agency, OS International subsidiary.... It's a big deal if you mess around with the model fee and don't like OS International."
However, such words did not even touch Park's ears.
"Even so, the new planning accident and the manager would be a new chick."
Park Kyunghoon, who once more ignored Jinseok, said with a light smile.
"Is everything okay?"
